expresses shock over the gruesome murder of former Chief of Defence
Staff (CDS), Air Chief Marshal (ACM) Alex Badeh (rtd), on Tuesday, by
yet to be identified gunmen, describing it as a national loss.The party
said the ambush and killing of a military officer of ACM Badeh’s status
has heightened fears and apprehensions, on the level of insecurity in
the country, particularly, the safety of average citizens, under the
incompetent and insensitive Buhari administration.Furthermore, the PDP
notes that the murder of the former CDS, came ahead of his opening of
defence, in January next year, in the N3.9 billion military fund case
preferred against him by the APC-led Federal Government.The PDP
therefore demands a wide-ranging investigation into the killing to
unravel those behind the dastardly act as well as the motive behind
their action.The party recalls the killing of former Chief of Army
Administration, Major General Idris Alkali, in Plateau state as well as
the horrific murder of over 100 of our gallant soldiers in Melete, Borno
state, by insurgents and stated that President Buhari has failed
woefully as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces.PDP insists that our
nation is drifting and gradually assuming the status of a failed state
and urges President Buhari to spend the few months left of his
administration to provide a leadership that will secure respect for our
territorial integrity and the lives of our people.Our party notes
further that the failure of President Buhari is whittling the confidence
of the citizens in our nationhood.The PDP describes ACM Badeh as a fine
and patriotic officer, who made various sacrifices towards the
security, unity and stability of the nation, particularly as the Chief
of Defence Staff, adding that his killing is a monumental loss to the
nation.The party condoles the Badeh family, the Government and people of
Adamawa state and prays God to grant them the fortitude to bear the
loss, while urging our security forces to immediately swing into action
and leave no stones unturned until the killers are brought to book.PDP demands investigation into the death of Air Force chief, Alex Badeh
