By Idowu Isamotu

The Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Christopher Musa, has vowed that Nigerian Military will avenge killing of its personnel who were ambushed at Zungeru-Tegina road in Niger State on August 14.

The military had last week disclosed 36 personnel of the military paid supreme price during the ambush which occurred on Zungeru-Tegina road and the crash in Chukuba area of Shiroro, all in Niger State.

Speaking on Friday at Military Cemetery, Abuja, where 20 deceased personnel of the armed forces were buried, the Defence Chief said none of those adversaries will go scot-free, saying they would be hunted down by all means.

Speaking after laying of wreaths on their graves and presentation of the national flags to the deceased’s next of kins, Musa said they joined the family members in their griefs, adding that the deaths of their loved ones would not be in vain.

“Those that did this, and those that have continued our men, wherever they are, we will get them out, we will smoke them out and we will ensure that they never have any other opportunity to kill any other person, that I assure you.

“We will hunt you down, we will bring you to justice. We will not relent until we get those causing havocs in the country,” the distraught Defence Chief said. (Daily Trust /vitalnewsngr.com)
