Military authorities have retired the former General Officer
Commanding the 7 Division of the Nigerian Army, Maiduguri, Maj. Gen. Abubakar
Mohammed.
A tribunal had earlier sentenced 12 soldiers to Death for their attack on the GOC.
Investigations revealed that Mohammed was retired after he
was recalled to the Headquarters of the Nigerian Army without posting for
months after the soldiers’ attempt on his life.
It was gathered from a top military source in Abuja that the
Army authorities quietly retired him last month.
The source said:
“The Maj. Gen. has been retired; you don’t expect
that to be made public; issues of retirement especially in the military are
confidential. The man was at the Army headquarters for some time. He was
awaiting posting then but he was
eventually retired about a month ago.”
