Why Buhari cut off military supplies to Man O’ War clubs in 1981 –Don - Punch Newspapers

Professor of Water Resources and Environmental Engineering, Ifeolu Adewumi, has narrated how General Muhammadu Buhari, who was the General Officer Commanding, 2nd Mechanised Division at the Command’s Office in Agodi, Ibadan, Oyo State, cut off military supplies to voluntary paramilitary organisation, Man O’ War Club in 1981.

The 69-year-old academic and former President of National Union of voluntary paramilitary organisation, Man O’ War Clubs in Higher Institutions of Nigeria, stated this in an exclusive interview withHe said, “As members of the Man O’ War Club, we did community service in those days. That was the main objective and not to run after politicians or guard any big man as it is today. We looked for what to do in communities and we assisted in terms of security.

“Usually, soldiers from the Nigerian Army came to train us. They also took care of our camping materials, food, uniform and others. I recollect meeting General Buhari. That was in May 1981. I went there as the Commander-in-Chief of Man O’ War club in UNIFE. “I went there with other officers in the Man O’ War. When we got there and filled the form to say that the commander-in-chief of Man O’ War was there to see him, we waited for about 20 minutes and when he came out, he said, ‘I was told that there is a C-in-C in the Office of a GOC, I think it should be the other way round.’ Buhari is a very humorous person. I got the joke and I saluted him and got up. And he said, ‘Now that we know who is in control, you can come into my office.

“I went in and introduced everybody and requested logistics support for Man O’ War. The next thing General Buhari asked was that. ‘How many northerners are in your university?’ I said, ‘Sir, University of Ife is a regional institution in the Western Region, there will be more people from here than from other tribes. In ABU , there will be more northerners than other tribes and in Nsukka, there will be more Igbo there.

Is not interested due to too much killings Mr President.
