Bandits who attacked the Afaka barracks of the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA), Kaduna State, shot dead at least two officers and went away with another personnel in an onslaught on the country’s foremost military training institution.

According to SaharaReporters, the bandits invaded “in their large number” and shot dead two officers identified as Lieutenant Commodore Wulah and Flight Lieutenant CM Okoronwo.

They also abducted Major Datong while 2 Lieutenant Onah sustained gunshot injuries and currently receiving treatment, SaharaReporters was told.

The bandits who attacked the barracks around 1am on Tuesday are still believed to be inside the academy.

A reliable source within the barracks said security had been beefed up within and around the barracks to stop the bandits from escaping with the officers.

“It was a terrible experience; the bandits took advantage of the time when most people had gone to bed to attack the barracks.”

“Right now, the whole barracks is under lock and key and security has been beefed up so that the bandits cannot leave the barracks because it is believed that they are still within,” the source had said.

One of the officers who was injured in the attack is currently being treated at a hospital within the barracks.

The source said that there are, however, fears that the bandits may decide to kill the officers in a bid to escape.

The Academy Public Relations Officer, Major Bashir Jajira, did not respond to calls put across.

This is not acceptable! Which country are we defending again in this war against terrorism? Security lapses will not be tolerated.

In Nigeria TERRORISTS are called BANDITS. ARMED ROBBERS are called POLITICIANS. TERRORIST sponsors are honourable ministers, senators and parliamentarians of the FAILED federal republic. Nigeria became seriously sick when CHANGE took over, and Nigeria went into COMA with ANOTHER LEVER. Agitators for better government are been arrested and lockup while TERRORISTS are been released in the name of REPENTANT TERRORISTS and surrendered TERRORISTS. Welcome to BANDITS REPUBLIC of Nigeria.
