The Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) has expressed dismay over the attack on the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) by bandits, who killed two officers and kidnapped another in the process.

Reacting in a statement issued by its spokesman, Emmanuel Yawe, ACF said it is sad that “ordinary street bandits” could invade the NDA.

Yawe said the officer abducted must be rescued and those behind the attack be brought to book.

“We of the ACF have said it again and again that there is everything seriously wrong with the management of our security. The other day a Nigerian Airforce fighter aircraft was shot down by the so-called bandits.

“Today the factory where all Nigerian military officers are produced has been invaded and desecrated. What else do we need to show that our national security system is running in reverse gear?”
