Be sure GEJ will not shed the blood of these gallant soldiers as long as he is and remains the C-in-C of Nigerian Armed Forces. Thank you SERAP for the follow up. But be sure you are asking for the obvious. Those gentlemen and women will not face any execution as long as GEJ is and remains our C-in-C. He and only him can authorize the execution. Buhari if elected come Febuary 2015 will blink an eye to order (not approve) the execution but not without tactical exoneration of every implicated soldier from the Housa-Fulani extraction. He has done it before and is even more determined this time if given the opportunity. A federal government under Buhari and Asiwaju is a certain mass burial for these soldiers. I rest my case.
