    If gold rust what will iron do
    A whole former Provost Marshal of the Nigerian Army wasted anyhow by some robbers. Its unfortunate and with this I am sure the road will be well policed now. We always wait for a big man to be affected first before we take correction. If a big man does not die from a bad spot on our roads it is not repaired. May his soul rest in peace and may this be the last we hear of an Army General being wasted by some marauders.
