  Vasta was a very educated  soldier in the Nigerian  Army.   He said  " first  he owns Abuja but now Abuja owns his external  life ".  May his Soul  rest  internal life.  AMEN  !!!!!.

  Probably there is no other person apart from Babangida who could be so heartless. Vatsa was more than a brother. May God bless Vatsa s soul.

  This is brutal reality of life! We are born to live and we are on our own until we die. This is why I don’t do best friends I don’t trust no one but my maker!

  Babangida sacrificed his best friend to create fear in his regime. That singular action terrified alot of officers, They said...if he can kill his best friend he will kill anyone!. One of the reasons he was able to use 8 years as a military head of state.

  The aspects of Vasta hugging the kids before heading out, including hugging his wife for the last time, was absolutely heartbreaking.

  As painful as this story was, I read a piece that suggested vatsa got a wind of the coup but refused to participate but maintained that IBB should not be harmed during the coup. The question now is who betrayed. The friend who knew of a coup & didn’t stop it or a friend who knew his friend will be executed if found guilty and didn’t stop it. I will find that piece and it’s reference. So you guys can read. It was from Abacha’s ADC, Al-mustapha
