‘The audacity’ — DHQ posts cryptic message after killing of military personnel in Delta
The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) on Sunday posted a cryptic
message on X, formerly called Twitter, after 16 military personnel were killed
in Delta state.
The personnel — comprising a lieutenant colonel, two
majors, one captain, and 12 soldiers — were killed on Thursday while on a
“peacekeeping mission” in Okuoma, Bomadi LGA of Delta.
They had reportedly responded to a distress call after a
communal clash between the Okuoma and Okoloba communities.
In a post on X, the DHQ simply said: “The Audacity”,
accompanied with a black love emoji.
