Still on General Richard Duru

 Elections to the alumni association of our alma mater would have been held by the time you are reading this and the fate of the well-respected General Richard Duru is on the front burner.

The immediate past executive as led by my brother Segun Adefila has been accused of not being very proactive in the matter and this may cost him his position. Although General Duru’s matter is not the main grouse held against him, his lack of posturing in the matter is certainly playing very seriously against him and this is why gentleman Taiwo Ayedun, a cognate corporate citizen with international reach and powerful networks is having not only my support but the support of the generality of the community.

As an elder statesman and a failed presidential candidate, my voice is heavy and my voice is for Taiwo because I believe very strongly that he would be able to work his network and contacts within the present government of President Tinubu to give us answers to this problem.

General Duru is a well-loved alumnus of our school, Command Secondary School, Ipaja and apart from the fact that he has played very excellent roles in our alma mater, also served very diligently the Army and the nation by extension.

Daily, we hear hundreds of children are being kidnapped and released but Duru is still in captivity. We do not even know what exactly has happened to him going into five months. I hear his wife is now so traumatised beyond belief.

Nothing is worse than not having closure. Please, what exactly is the situation? Nobody is talking again o and all behaving like General Duru was just nobody.

Please, President Bola Tinubu, can you come in and kindly intervene? We know you have the heart and can help bring out a resolution on this matter. Thank you so much in advance.
