      The COAS is an embarassment – agreed ! Your cousins and brothers in Boko Haram are heroes !! They are not an embarassment at all . Abacha, IBB & Abdulsam did so much for the country that we are still struggling to count how much they actually compensated themselves with , they are our heroes !
