President Muhammadu Buhari has described the killing of former Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Alex Badeh (rtd) as “very sad and unfortunate.”
The President commiserated with the family of the late four-star general, his friends and professional colleagues in the military, and the people and government of Adamawa state.
Noting that the late Badeh, who was also a former Chief of Air Staff, attained professional fulfilment in his over three decades military career, the President said it is regrettable that he fell victim to incidence of violent and fatal attacks on the nation’s highways.
The President directed security agencies to find the killers of the 15th Chief of Defence Staff and bring them to face the full force of the law, while ensuring greater security and safety for all users of the country’s roads.
The President prayed that God Almighty would comfort all those who mourn Air Chief Marshal Badeh and grant his soul peaceful rest.
