Source“They were on their way to Imo State on Saturday when the incident happened. The man, a Master Warrant Officer, and the woman, a Lance Corporal, were on transit when they met the criminals who killed them and made videos and circulated online. The woman was raped before they shot at them and cut off their heads.

“The man was a member of the 19 regular intakes while the wife was of the 79RI. The man still has a father; his brother is also a soldier working at a battalion in Kaduna State.”

SourceThe Director, Army Public Relations, Brig. Gen. Onyema Nwachukwu, confirmed the incident, adding that the Army was investigating it.

Army tackles IPOB, ESN, vows to apprehend culprits.He vowed that no stone would be left unturned to ensure that those who committed the crime were brought to book.

He said, “I have received information about the cold-blooded murder of two of our personnel who were travelling home for their traditional wedding formalities.

“This is a dastardly act unleashed on our personnel by some criminals. The Nigerian Army has commenced investigations to unmask and bring to book the criminals behind the murder.”
What a patetic and unfortunate incident that have happened to the military in Nigeria. If the people that are supposed to protect the masses are killed in this manner what will the masses do.
Again, this speaks of the Lost of value in the society and lawlessness that is growing and increasing in the world.
