There was confusion on Sunday morning after two military
officers, identified as Hilary and Sheu Abdullahi, died after a brutal clash.
Our correspondent gathered that the incident happened at a
popular night club on Pen Crescent, Apapa area of Lagos.
The Punch learnt from a reliable source that Hilary, a
corporal in the Nigerian Army, had gone to the club with his girlfriend who was
donned in a military outfit.
The source said, “The bouncers at the club stopped the lady
and challenged her, asking if she was a soldier. But Hilary asked why they
would question his girlfriend in his presence.
“Abdullahi, a naval officer, who was equally at the club
with his girlfriend, came out to intervene. After listening to the bouncers, he
told Hilary it was wrong for his girlfriend to wear a military uniform when she
was not one. That was how Hilary left the bouncers and decided to tackle
Abdullahi.”
