How Bandits Attacked Five Flats At NDA

• The Chief of Defence Staff, General Lucky Irabor, has since visited the scene of the attack.

EKOHOTBLOG reports that a leaked memo from Defence Headquarters has revealed how bandits attacked five flats the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) barracks in Afaka, Kaduna State.

EKOHOTBLOG had earlier reported that the bandits, in the early hours of Monday, attacked the Afaka barracks of the NDA in Kaduna, killed two army officers and abducted one Major Dalong.

However, according to the memo, the bandits operated successfully because troops did not respond to distress call on time.

“The response time of troops to the crime scene on that day was slow as the bandits successfully broke into five different flats in the same block and swiftly withdraw before the intervention of troops,” the memo read.

The Chief of Defence Staff, General Lucky Irabor, who has since visited the scene, described the attack as “madness”, saying, “The incident in Kaduna has been undertaken by bandits, but it’s more of an armed robber coming to your house. The infiltration didn’t come by virtue of the normal banditry action. But these are things we’re already looking at, and in due course, you’ll get the details.

“Suffice to say, any form of insecurity is a cause of worry for anyone. That’s why for us, we’re more determined that this madness must be brought to an end very swiftly,” Irabor said.
