The Defence Headquarters has reacted to the alleged assassination attempt on Kogi state governor Yahaya Bello at Kwali, near Abuja.
In a statement on Sunday evening, the Director of Defence Information, Brig Gen Tukur Gusau, said it could be a case of unknown persons dressed in military uniform. The Army said the Kogi state government did not in any way implicate the military in the assassination.Most bandits operate in military uniform. Kogi statement didn’t say military, so maybe we should allow investigation.
“I am sure police will constitute Investigation panel and if there is anything pointing to the military, I’m sure something will be done“The man didn’t say military but that they used military uniform and we know people for whatever reason always use military uniform to perpetrate their criminal activities so he didn’t implicate us in any way.
