This milestone is significant, considering that in the United States, the life expectancy of the African American is 75.4 years. But it has pleased the Almighty God to give him long life and he has surpassed this benchmark by more than a decade, still counting and waxing strong. I listened to him intently last month at the webinar commemorating the June 12, 1993 presidential election won by Chief Moshood Abiola, but wickedly annulled by the military regime of General Ibrahim Babangida.

Capt. Jauro Musa Liya (Rtd) A soldier is trained to defend his country. This noble cause is a sacrifice that may lead to paying the ultimate price. The training of a soldier never envisaged a backlash from the fourth estate of the realm or a deliberate meddling and abuse of this sacrifice by some elements with intent to explore  negative objectives.

In Nigeria however, the military is callously being dragged into the mud slinging - all targeted at earning political scores. From the professional formation of military officers or service men and women, - the rigorous regimental training of the  military does not give room for learning the arts or tricks of verbal onslaughts and grandstanding. However, current realities in Nigeria entails that the military must consider deliberate training on how best to defend it's image and re
