“Sabotage would not be from the Military commanders and the attack might be the handiwork of fifth columnists,” General Jibrin said.
“Unless investigations are done, the governor (Zulum) would continue to think he was attacked by the Military.
“No right thinking Military commander would allow an officer under him to engage in such an act.”
