Comrades at this time it appear military of Niger is experiencing some of same evil conditions present in Mali on to many occasions. Condition where military personnel is not properly "hunt would would" vetted then thereafter timely make attack against brother military personnel causing deaths plus loss of equipment. In addition, they escape to safety. I hope this is not result of senior officers making selection of personnel from basis of soldiers who will allow those senior officers to take a generous percentage of those soldiers pay but, thereafter those soldiers in their deceit recover their losses by running off with equipment which they sale to terrorists in exchange for money gained by way of illicit drug sales. Proper vetting of military personnel weekly or daily if necessary should solve this life taking evil condition. Very sincere, Henry Author Price Jr. aka Obediah Buntu Il-Khan aka Kankan.
