Ex-chief of Defense Staff, Alex Badeh, strong critic of the @MBuhari government, was just assassinated along Abuja-Keffi Rd. This is a man who knew a lot about the inner workings of this government. His death must be investigated. It is too convenient. You may be next #RenosDarts

People are blaming Alex Badeh’s death on Karma based on allegations that he embezzled Military funds. But no one is holding the Chief Security Officer of the nation accountable, no one is talking about the high rate of insecurity in Nigeria. Keep excusing incompetence.

Alex Badeh was killed alongside his driver, all I’ve been seeing is “RIP Badeh” cos he was a public figure. Is the life of the ordinary Nigerian that valueless and insignificant? RIP Badeh’s driver. Your family will miss you too

If the immediate past Chief of Defence Staff could be shot dead by miscreants in this country, believe me, no one is safe anymore.I have written extensively on Security measures against senseless killings in Nigeria.
Deploy sophisticated security systems.
