As reactions have continued to trail the news of the former Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Ale Badeh's death, fiery writer and former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fan-Kayode is not certainly keeping mum anytime soon on the matter.
In his submission, there is more to the occurence that meets the eye. His take on the sad occurence is sure to have everyone put on their thinking caps as revelations and counter revelations keep pouring in. According to him:
These are still early days and the investigation is yet to commence but I do not accept the suggestion that some have already made that his murder was a random and isolated event. That is just too convenient a conclusion to come to and it seeks to cover the tracks of the masterninds of this heinous and ungodly crime. In any case many questions need to be answered.
For example, how come a former Chief of Defence Staff and a former Chief of Air Staff did not have any military personnel or security details guarding and protecting him? This is especially so given the fact that it appears that he was on a long distance drive on a road which has has proved to be dangerous in the early hours of the evening.
Badeh was entitled to that level of protection by virtue of his position as a former Chief of Defence Staff. How come he was denied it? Who withdrew his men? Who wanted him to be alone with just his driver on that journey? Who wanted him dead?
There are many other questions which we shall ask at the appropiate time. And one day we shall get the answers.
Meanwhile, I add my voice to those who have called for an independent and public commission of enquiry into this courageous and noble soul’s brutal assasination.
He is sure making a point, isnt he? why didnt he have security detail? Anyways, Rest in peace, Air Chief Badeh....
