Former Minister of Aviation and a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, Olufemi Fani-Kayode, has launched another attack on President Muhammadu Buhari, the Minister of Defence, Rtd Brig. Gen. Mansur Mohammed Dan Ali and the Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen Tukur Yusuf Buratai over the alleged ‘secret burial’ of soldiers reportedly killed by Boko Haram insurgents. The media was recently awash with news of the alleged abduction and killing of 105 soldiers in northeastern part of the country.
However, the military authority had since debunked the story, saying that none of its men was missing.
Reacting to the development via his Twitter handle on Wednesday, Fani who is known for his controversial tweets challenged the government to speak up on the whereabouts of the soldiers if they were still alive.
He tweeted, “This is wickedness of the highest order and Pres. Buhari, his Chief of Army Staff and his Min. of Defence should bury their heads in shame.
“I am outraged by the fact that a soldier will sacrifice his life for his country yet the citizens of that country don’t even appreciate it.
“Anyone that buys the lie and propaganda that the 105 soldiers never died and that they are still alive is a compound fool or village idiot.
“Will the military also deny the fact that 2 days ago 34 of our soldiers were killed by BH. These boys died for their country. Why deny them?
“All we want from the military is the truth. If 105 were not killed then how many were killed?”
