Description |
The general officer commanding (GOC), 7 Division, Nigerian Army, Major General Ahmadu Mohammed, escaped death by a whisker when a group of disgruntled soldiers turned their gun at his vehicle and pulled the trigger. The soldiers were apparently upset at the military for a lack of preparedness in responding to several recent Boko Haram attacks in the region, most notably a second attack on Chibok which killed 12 earlier in the day. Other soldiers shot sporadically into the air to further express their anger. |
