President Muhammadu Buhari has directed the Defence Headquarters to begin investigation of the incident involving the troops of 93 Battalion, Takum, Taraba, which resulted in the death of three police officers and a civilian.

Chief of Air Staff, Sadique Abubakar, said President Buhari gave the directive on Thursday during a meeting of the National Security Council at the State House, Abuja, Igbere TV reports.

“The council also decided that the unfortunate incidents in Taraba State in Ibi, a committee will be setup under the Defence Headquarters to critically look into the circumstances that led to the unfortunate incident,” he said.

Police and the army had earlier announced a Joint Investigation Panel to investigate the incident.

Abubakar also said that the council evaluated the current strategy of managing internal security operations across the country.

“We are making substantial progress in all the areas of conflicts,’’ he said.

The air chief said the introduction of technology and drones to fight crimes was also discussed.

Those soldiers are Fulani'rebel army .they knew in their hearts what they were doing.they too are kidnappers.

An exercise in futility. The investigations will amount to nothin. The Army killed those policemen and set the kidnapper free.

Good

Tot el rufai said that the north are not into kidnapping and other crimes?

Crime news coming out from the north these days are becoming more daring and blatant than other regions.

Only a fool will not know that the Nigerian army has been filled to the brim with BH and Fulani herdsmen

... What if buhari leaves, who do we trust in Aso rock?

The army said they thought the policemen were kidnapers, how true is that.

Jayslicky:
At least this is better from buhari, for the first time he is doing right.

...Buhari...

Yawns

And will the investigation bring back the dead cops..

Bubu, forget story.. Compensate the family and let this country move forward..

I find it worrying that in 2 different cases the Army kills those who caught the kidnappers
and always sets them free.

THE NIGERIAN ARMY RELEASES CAUGHT KIDNAPPERS & KILLS THOSE WHO CAUGHT THEM TO SILENCE THEM


IN TARABA STATE


IN EDO STATE


The Army never kills the kidnappers,always those who captured them

The words of Danjuma comes to my mind

As if anything will come out of the whole cover up?



Taaaaaaaaaa

Defence HQ? Those guys can lie for Africa. They will just write a report and tell us what they like. Better ask some other agency to investigate it.

Oh, it's the army that lies all the time. I don't trust DHQ though. Let's hope they do a good job.

Army is under ministry of defense, therefore they can’t be a judge in their case. This is unfair to the Police.
An independent body should have been set up to investigate the incident.

I'm disappointed in your comments sir. This is nothing but propaganda. You have no proof not even an invalid one to support your claim yet you still said it audaciously like you have a point.

If I have a brother like you, I swear to God I'll prevent you from entering my house because you can cause war.

Many times military troops are intentionally mixed from different tribes and religions to prevent bias in operation.

I thought we were taught to be critical thinkers in school. Indeed, some only passed through school but school didn't pass through them.

I rest my case.

Rubbish.

Defense headquarters will bury the facts

Buhari is really a daft

AngelicBeing:
Yawns

I support!

committee na today

Biggest conspiracy of the year... The kidnapper was released after killing cops... Only in my country.

We hear

A neutral body made would have made more sense.

Now, this is sense. A leader who is actually genuine and committed to making things right, would commission an independent inquiry into this shameful incident.

But not the useless Buhari, of course. Merely assigning the task of investigation to the same compromised DHQ, same bureaucracy filled with disgustingly corrupt, prejudiced, and incompetent bastards, only tells you the kind of animal that Buhari is. And the kind of government he runs.

Let us brace up. The worst years are imminent for Nigeria.

The army was right. I have the video it was case of mistaken identity.

good. but I pray they should not bury it under rug.

Exercise in futility? More like a red Herring. Those policemen were sacrificed
