Tudun Biri 150 Bomb Massacre: Chief Of Army Staff Should Resign

In the war of terrorism in Nigeria, there is a total of 10th deadly mistakes committed on the lives of innocent people in two years,but the worse among them and the most dangerous of all was the Tudun Biri community of Kaduna state.

Nigerian army cannot provide sufficient answer to why the killing of people dwelled in the prayers of God, invoking for peace, unity and the progress of Nigeria were suddenly attacked with their children, husbands and wives.

For many years; more than a decade the people have been practicing the same rite and attacking such community which uphold the values of ‘maulud’ attached with brotherhood and peaceful coexistence calls for thorough investigation.

Who are the intelligent officers of the Nigerian army in that community that are not aware of such event, such public gathering that is not practiced in the forest?

Is disheartening for people who are employed purposely to protect lives and the goods of the people to continue to waste precious lives in the name of mistake for 10th times?

The Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Taoreed Lagbaja can show humility and concern over the wanton killing in Tudun Biri, Igabi Local Government, Kaduna State and humbly resign his position for someone that is capable to do the work well.

Resignation of military officers in Nigeria is not a new thing all over the world. The Nigerian military itself has been sacking staff for their mistakes in their work and it will only fetch respect for the Chief of Staff if resigned.
