It's just a tactics to steal some allowance.

owobokiri:
He had to fly in yesterday so he will be able to "sleep over and pay homage to emir of Zazzau (goodluck pronouncing that towns name without biting your tongue)" BEFORE attending the PoP.
Nobody knows when tragedy will strike, but since this happened, I have always thought that as a supposedly busy Army chief directing "war efforts" in multiple fronts. , he could have flown to Kaduna today, finished with the PoP whatever before noon and get back to his desk for sundry matters before the end of the day...

Why the homage to the overdressed and highly useless emir? What is the essence of the homage to these funny looking emirs? Are they the local garrison commanders?? The time Burutai mowed down hundreds of shites in Zaria few years ago, he was also on his way to pay homage to the emir of Zaria! These are top military officers and not politicians or local Chiefs. What are they always doing with all these moribund emirs?

That's the same emir ....the emir of zazzau (zaria)
nah not the same. This one recently ascended to the throne. The one of Buratai was his late Father, Alhaji Idris. Though I agree these homages are uncalled for. I'd understand if politicians do it, but not top military echelons.

It's sad he didn't get to enjoy the perks of his office, even sadder that he died relatively young.
I can imagine the pain his friends and relatives will feel knowing they didn't get to use his position to intimidate people just like that barber at Umunneochi who has a business card that reads "Brother of the Councilor Ward 2".

My happiness is that, just like Adamu Garba has pointed out, "there are over 200,000 General Attahirus in the Nigerian Army.
Nothing will change. Nothing will stop. Nothing will slack".


And like we grew up saying in 042, "soldier go, soldier come, kpekus remain".
The Nigerian Army should know better and not cancel this ceremony.

Its barrack remains sir

I’m not saying this is what the man did o but big men like to fly in one or two nights before the planned program so that they have enough time to sample what that land has to offer. Many of these big men have ‘exciting projects’ in different cities. This is why they are always excited to travel even for programs that they could send someone to represent them wink wink

The passing out parade was postponed based on the story, headline says cancel. Journalism in Nigeria is now more like Okon's and Salimot WhatsApp stories update. Very pathetic!

Anyways, man is first man before being a Northerner or a Southerner. I sympathize with the Attahiru's and others that lost someone in the crash.
It's shocking. No gatekeeper to keep such gaffes in check. Even when we had Yellow journalism it wasn't this bad.

True, but not when it could have been avoided, with all the billions yet they still acquire expired aircrafts thus the frequent crashes. Not talking of poor maintenance culture & others.
