UNBELIEVABLE: DEFENCE BOSS OLUKOLADE AND EZEKWESILI PUBLIC FIGHT.

The Defence spokesman, Chris Olukolade and former Federal Minister of Education, Obiageli Ezekwesili have been engaged in a twitter war following Boko Haram’s recent attempt to seize Biu, the largest town of Southern Borno state.
The insurgents had stormed Biu yesterday morning but were repelled by Nigerian troops.
According to the Nigerian Defence Headquarters, several of the militants were arrested.
Ezekwesili had taken to twitter to alert Olukolade about the attack in Biu, but this apparently didn’t go down well with him.
Olukolade accused Ezekwesili of raising false alarm and spreading fear.
Ezekwesili on the other hand wondered how alerting the military to the distres cries of Biu was spreading fear.
See some of their tweets below:
The unwarranted attacks by @obyezeks on Troops & Nigerians who have lost their KIN in the Military to war against TERROR will not deter us!

Verified Information from #BIU has confirmed that @obyezeks has raised a belated & false alarm. May we not be amplifiers of BH Propaganda!

How alerting @GENOlukolade &the military on the cries we @BBOG_Nigeria are getting from BIU residents is “spreading fear” totally beats one.

When the #ChibokGirls news broke and WE used ALL MEANS to ALERT your Security leadership & FG, @GENOlukolade , so we were “SPREADING FEAR”?

People died from Salt Water Bath, #EbolaCase. People jumped into the sea in Lagos #IkejaBlasts. Such is the danger of false alarms @obyezeks

@obyezeks Pls stop spreading fear like BH desires. Nigerian Mothers who have Kids in BIU shouldn’t die from High BP caused by your alarms!

Such PETTY ACT of making ME rather than the MESSAGE, the ISSUE by dear @GENOlukolade speaks to the DEEP CHALLENGES of our KEY INSTITUTIONS.

No AMOUNT of OVERT and COVERT attacks from public officials like @GENOlukolade will compel ME to BECOME SILENT in the FACE OF EVIL. Never.

I wish @GENOlukolade was THIS ENERGIZED in providing CREDIBLE info on OUR #ChibokGirls , Gumsiri & #Baga . Fighting ME is a WASTE OF EFFORT.

Deep VENOM that a KEY member of our Security Leadership has thrown @ a CITIZEN for innocent alert. IT IS VERY REVEALING. @GENOlukolade wow!
