obiekunie01:How he knew? The evidence was damning. The N10,000 Vatsa gave to the Colonel ( About $12,000). General Vatsa although said it was for the Colonel's poultry and not for any coup planning. The meetings held. The plan for Abuja. It was an open trial. The officers confessed. At that time, not a single person anywhere believed Vatsa was innocent, the evidence was too much. He actually missed the AFRC meeting that Friday in Dodan Barracks,thats when tongues began to wag.( AFRC Armed Forces Ruling Council was the highest legislative body during IBB Years) In fact the first rumors were that because of IBBs love for him, the execution was faked and Vatsa sent to live in London. The rumors about innocence only begin after August 1993 during that crazy peirod of wild conspiracy theories. |
That Nairalander guy may be right: Tinubu, a bad man with good intentions; this appointment by him maybe the best move by Nigeria since 2014 when GEJ brought in the South African mercenaries. Time will tell because many people we thought would do well, always change when they get in there. |
Thats more of courtesy shown by women in some cultures when greeting someone older than you or in higher authority.

Gandah:How did they disown him? The statement did not refer to him as a Nigerian. The headline is from Nigerian media. US authorities always describe suspects by sex, age and city of residence except you are not an American citizen, then they will add your country of origin. |
I hope this is different. I really do. We have had many many before with all the hype, all was promise and fail. Simple patriotism that even primary school students used to have decades ago they did not have one drop. Everything has become chop money, award contract, win next elections. |
Oga Musa...the ball is in your court. We wish you Godspeed! |
This man. I hope your security is top notch, because you are seriously exposing a lot for the last few years now. Anyway I suspect the EU is helping out. I wish you the best. |
When will Nigeria ever have this kind of world class infrastructure? When will any black nation do it without the help of Europeans? Oh how I wish for glories of ancient Timbuktu, Zimbabwe, Egypt, Sudan, Benin, Ife, Nok when black people had empires when they ruled the world. Now most of what we have are followers who are consumers and leaders who are jokers or criminals |
Truths9ja:The Apostle one? Were the attackers actually identified? Was it targeted or just random kidnappers? Thankyou |
Interesting things are happening o. If only we had a leader who could galvanize the potential of our people |
The lack of knowledge in Nigeria is beyond belief. And false keeps growing But sometimes one has to blame those in government, their reputation for evil is legendary. Xpress or whatever their name is, is not doing what Alphabeta did in Lagos. Simple research would show this. But can one blame anyone who thinks so. Please do research people, stop believing rumors and lies. Buhari was not cloned,he did not die in office. Pastor Adeboye did not protest against Goodluck, he led a protest in 2021 during Buharis government to protest AGAINST the killings in the North 90% of the foreign trips and meetings by the President and Governments are useless. 100% of them can be attended on their behalf by the Minister of Foreign Affairs or the Ambassador stationed in that country. Please help me add to the list of lies and untruth that we so easily believe. |
Why can't they publish the name of the soldier and picture of the body. This would really help. Especially since they found his ID card. This would put a lot to rest, things will be clearer. |
orisa37:That isn't true |
laidima88:No he wasn't hanged. He was killed by the police same day Army arrested him and handed him over to them. Yaradua was President then and Goodluck Vice. It was 2009.

naptu2:Is this not the same @naptu2 that posts a lot in the political and foreign affairs section? I thought you were more knowledgeable than that o. So you don't know that Nigeria has about 1 million military and para military personnel? I also said the bandits and terrorist forces are less than 50,000, since you disagree with this estimate; with your knowledge, what figure do you think it is? More than 50,000 or as small as 1000? Or you simply don't know? |
naptu2:Please re check what I wrote. Military Police Para Military Police is almost 400,000. Military 200+. Then other uniformed and armed services: DSS. Prisons. Customs. NSDC. Government sanctioned militia like Ametokun and other groups in Kano, Borno etc All armed by the government. |
laidima88:Hanged? I dont think Nigeria has ever executed any terrorist. Infact nobody has been executed in Nigeria by the government since 2007 or thereabouts when Adam's Oshiomole signed the death warrants of some armed robbers in Edo State. |
I hope these convictions of ISWAP especially the alleged masterminds of those bombings are true; because the audacity with which ISWAP/ISIS openly fought Boko Haram 2 weeks ago on Lake Chad in broad daylight made it seem like we have no government, no military, no Navy. I am still wondering why over 1 million soldiers, police, para military cannot rout less than 50,000 bandits and terrorists especially since the country has an Air Force. |
Nwaikpe:The general who was killed on Monday, wasnt he a Northern Muslim? |
Sheffdon:You have said it all. The problem of Nigeria is plenty, |
SalamRushdie:Thank youm And they posted it like it was over the weekend! |
Can anyone identify this fallen officer. I know its not General Uba.
|
PresidentMUGABE:Mamma Vatsa was January 1984 to December 1985. He was a Military Minister Useni was 1993 to 1998. |
Same State where student were just kidnapped? This is sad. |
Love800:Twitter. |
RaptorX:So the General is not dead? That will be good news for his family and the rest of us. |
onuman:May God help us. |
RaptorX:Search for this user: @Ipob_supporters |
Mr. President. What is going on? Where are you? Please say something. Did you watch the video of the execution of your General? Muhammed Uba? He was brave till the point of death. A whole General was ambushed, escaped for almost a day and then captured on NIGERIAN SOIL and nothing has happened. By now, I believe you should have marshalled the entire resources of the Nigerian nation to destroy the animals who did this. You need to move your office to Dikwa, Borno State and stop this abomination. If they can do this to a General with thousands of troops at his disposal and side, what is the hope or unarmed civilians.

onuman:Sorry sir, thats no excuse. Tinubu signed up for the job. He himself said during the campaign, dont pity me, i am volunteering for this job. Fortune favors the bold. Innovate or abdicate. |
RaptorX:Its on Twitter. Search for his name. Some have the still picture, some the video. Please be careful, you cant unsee what you see. The General was a true General, brave man; the Army failed him. He still communicated hours before he was re captured and sent a video saying he had escaped. |
And just hours before the man had escaped from them and communicated with troops that his phone was at 31% and he could hear the helicopter above him waiting for rescue. |
