He lamented that the NDA, like other military environments in the country, carelessly opens its doors to everyone on Friday for Jumat prayer.
He said:
“It is an aberration; you don’t attack the Nigerian Defence Academy and get away with it.
"Terrorists profile security environments during Muslim prayer on Friday."
Olawunmi said terrorists and criminals profile military environments during the weekly Muslim prayer on Fridays.
