To the president, the Chief of Army Staff, the wife and children of the deceased, the Father (General Ali) and all other family members, the good people of kogi State, friends and well wishers of the Lion and the general public; I send my sincere condolences.
I’m not shocked at the death of Ali, as a person of faith, I believed Ali has completed his charismatic assignment on earth.
Many died been known as criminals, many as touts, many as cowards but Ali as a patriot, a Lion, a history for many of us.
Today In Our history, where people are known for how much they stole from our collective treasury, how wasteful they are as public office holders, how selfish, egoistic, egotistic, egocentric they could be for holding public positions, Ali’s video shows how humble, loved by his fellows, attentive, determined and how committed he was as an officer. This is enough to live for. This is the best life to live.
The general public especially we from kogi state are grateful to Ali, we pray that his soul rest in peace.
To the Federal Government, the eulogising speech and those encomiums on Ali is good but not good enough for his family whom he was a bread winner, also to the those who wants to fight for the country in so many other ways and the general public on how they see their Govt.. I therefore advise, that the young Alis should be placed on full scholarship up till at least masters level and all other kids of our heroes who laid their lives that we can live. This will help the family, this will please Ali’s spirit, this will heal wounds, this will motivate other soldiers to work harder, this will promote the way the public look at their govt. and I think this is justice.
To be candid, I proud to note, that Ali decided to stand for this country, believe in it, forth for it continuously and courageously and finally he paid the supreme price. This is highest of piety.
Lieutenant Colonel Muhammed Abu Ali I am proud that you came in my time and I’m sure millions are with me.
Rest in peace Super Man.
