Why are they even retiring him instead of locking him up in prison to pay dearly for his crime? Nigerian with partiality. If it were to be some else, the case will not just end by just retirement.

Why did president Mohammad Buhari waited for 10 months to retire a corrupt top military officials like Brigadier General Aliyu Momoh from Nigerian Army? Anyway, that is a step to further strengthen our damaged military and prepare them for the 21st century challenges. There is no business of any army official getting involved in any election fraud or voter’s intimidation. Shame on you Brigadier General Aliyu Momoh for playing a dirty roles to imposed Area boy turned governor on great people of Ekiti state.

The military has no business whatsoever with elections, and so deploying their personnel to polling centers should be greatly discouraged.
Buhari was even gracious for retiring this corrupt man, because he will still get his full entitlement. Lucky man is he!

The Brigadier General should not be used as sacrificial lamb alone. All other culprits must be dealt with. The likes of everyone in the audio tape with their pictures.
