Daniel Bwala, former aide to ex-Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has proposed that Ministers of Defence Mohammed Badaru and Bello Matawalle (State) could be removed from President Bola Tinubu’s administration if the current lack of coordination between the Air Force and Army persists. In a Sunday post on X, Bwala criticized the situation, noting that “schoolboy errors” are allowing bandits to seize the nation’s armored vehicles and munitions.
Bwala said: “If this perceived lack of cooperation between the air force and army continues, where we see schoolboy errors resulting in ragtag bandits taking our armored vehicles and munitions, then both ministers of Defence may need to be shown the door out. No sentiments.”
A video emerged of a jubilant terrorism kingpin, Bello Turji, and his armed bandits celebrating “victory” over the Nigerian military after burning down two Mines Resistant Armour Personnel (MRAP) vehicles stuck in the mud.
Soldiers abandoned the vehicles during an operation in the troubled Zamfara State in the country’s North-west region.
Other terrorists were also heard calling for the burning of the vehicles after removing the essential parts, including ammunition boxes.
