Soldiers dying at alarming rate, Yesufu demands NASS action
Activist lawyer Aisha Yesufu expressed alarm over Nigerian soldiers' high casualty rate, questioning National Assembly inaction. She stated: 'We are losing our soldiers at a sickeningly alarming state. Where is the National Assembly? They were voted to protect citizens! Who have they summoned to explain this? What laws protect soldiers and families?' Yesufu highlighted families left behind by fallen troops, warning a passive legislature could be 'equally damaging' as absent leadership. Her comments follow public concern over military safety amid security challenges.
