Tribute
A WAKE was held at the Command Officers’ Mess, Asokoro, Abuja on Wednesday in honour of late Gen Victor Malu.
Audu Ogbe Minister for Agriculture and Rural Development represented the Federal Government of Nigeria at the well-attended ceremony.
Also in attendance were his widow, Esther, children and other family members; his colleagues of Nigeria Defence Academy, NDA, Regular Course 3 and their wives; some former ECOMOG commanders; his compatriots from Benue State; clergy and Church members; as well as the Liberian Ambassador to Nigeria Al-Hassan Conteh and Sierra Leonean acting high commissioner Maj.Gen, Alfred Nelson-Williams, who both read condolence messages from their home Governments.
There were glowing tributes to the late former Nigerian army chief and ECOMOG commander, who was variously described a “soldier’s soldier, fearless, courageous and frank officer, who led by example.”
His remains will be laid to rest in Benue at the weekend.
