FRIDAY OJEH lays dead beside contents of his skull ...He is clutching his cell phone. This forex dealer was killed in cold blood, in front of Jabita Hotel, Ikeja Lagos, by a Nigeria soldier. In a reaction that did not shock some of us, Army spokesman, Lt Col. K.K Umoh said Ojeh (whom he tagged a robber), tried to disarm one of his men, when they responded to distress call. We can see some cash, and what looks like a wallet. Questions for the NIGERIA ARMY…DOES THIS LOOK LIKE SOMEONE WHO TRIED TO DISARM A SOLDIER IN BROAD DAY LIGHT?, IS IT THE JOB OF THE ARMY TO GO AFTER ARMED ROBBERS/ROBBERY SUSPECTS? IS IT THE ARMY’S JOB TO INVESTIGATE A ROBBERY?
