Here is a clear, concise summary of the letter:
Summary
Hamza N. Dantani Esq., a human rights activist, expresses condolences to the President, Nigerian Army leadership, the Governor of Borno State, and Nigerians over the death of Brigadier General M. Uba. He describes the general’s killing as a tragic and preventable loss that highlights leadership failure at the highest level, including by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as Commander-in-Chief.
He criticizes the federal government’s silence, noting the absence of a national address or official mourning, which he argues is disrespectful to the military and damaging to morale. He also condemns the prioritization of political interests over national security.
The letter highlights contradictions in how security personnel are treated, referencing recent public disputes involving officers that received massive attention, while the death of a senior military officer has been met with indifference.
Dantani urges security agencies to remember their duty to citizens, not politicians, and calls out Borno youths for being vocal in politics but silent in a moment requiring solidarity. He encourages the military not to lose courage and prays for Brigadier General Uba, stressing that Nigeria must improve its leadership and accountability.
