From a distance I admired Minister of Defence, General Christopher Gwabin Musa. He had the frame of one big enough to offer Nigerians protection from the attack of terrorists, even bandits.
He had a mien as if he was interested in defending us, warding off attacks and initiating some attacks on our enemies, whether they came in the form or image of terrorists, bandits or kidnappers.
Some hailed the choice of Gen Musa as the Minister of Defence on 4 December 2025 until that day he appeared in public wearing the notorious Bola Ahmed Tinubu cap.
Nobody has worn that cap and amounted to much. An illustrious example is Senate President Obong Godswill Obot Akpabio who wears the cap and can break into a laughter when the most serious issues are before the Senate.
Gen Musa would not be an exception. He is often taciturn. The times he speaks, his positions are airy enough that most of his supporters wished he had been quiet.
