The Nigerian Army report on the attack at the
Armed Forces and Command Staff College in Kaduna in November 2012 has
indicted the former commander, Nigerian Army Corps of Infantry, Major
General Mohammed Isah.
Major General Isah according to the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant
General Azubike Ihejirika, was found wanting on negligence of duty even
after getting reports of the attack at the college.
The chief of army staff reiterated that the former commander was not retired because of the attack but as a result of his attaining his retirement age, which is a fact in the army records that is also known to the general.
Two suicide bombs in November 2012 hit a church inside a military barracks of the Armed Forces Command and Staff College, in Jaji, Kaduna state, killing 11 people and injuring 30 others.
The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) subsequently removed two top military officials from their posts at the college. The affected officials were Air Vice Marshal Ibrahim Kure, the Commandant of the Armed Forces Command and Staff College, and Major General Mohammed Isa, Commander, Nigerian Army Corps of Infantry, Jaji.
