WATCH THE VIDEO HERE FORMER Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Gen Theophilus Yakubu Danjuma (retd), has charged military top brass led by the Chief of Defense Staff (CDS), Gen Christopher Musa, to end banditry and killings “as soon as possible”. The octogenarian former army chief gave the charge on Tuesday in Abuja during the presentation of a book titled, ‘Big Boots: Lessons From My Military Service’, authored by Maj Gen Solomon Udounwa (retd). Addressing serving and retired military top brass including the current defence chief seated at the event, Gen TY Danjuma (retd) said the onus rested on serving officers to end the menace of banditry and senseless killings by marauders all over the country. The former COAS said, “We must end the banditry and the killings that are going on in our country as soon as possible. “The responsibilities are on your shoulders; those of you who are still servicing. No excuses, absolutely no excuses. God bless you. God bless our country.” In response, the defence chief said the Armed Forces won’t be deterred by the challenges confronting them in the fight against banditry and terrorism. He assured Gen TY Danjuma that the military won’t fail but bring the blood-sucking mongers called bandits to their knees.
