The Presidential Candidate of the Allied Congress Party of Nigeria (ACPN), Dr Oby Ezekwesili, has asked the Federal Government to declare national mourning over the death of the soldiers who were killed by suspected Boko Haram terrorists.
We express our sympathy and condolence to the families and loved ones of the departed soldiers. They are another set of heroes who have sacrificed their lives for others to live. This calls for a sober reflection and declaration of mourning days by the government.
Her reaction comes few days after a Boko Haram splinter group killed about 44 soldiers in Metele, a remote village near the border with the Niger Republic.
She said the killing of the soldiers by the terrorist group does not speak well of the country’s internal security apparatus.
