He said, “It’s not unusual to see such occurrence during parades, more so under intense sunshine. We are hoping they would come back in the end.

He said, “Go on with your investigation. I will get back to you later.
A source at the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Teaching Hospital, who confided in our correspondent said,”The soldier here is in a critical condition. He fell flat on his forehead, hitting the tar floor.“He is at the intensive unit here. We pray he would survive. We suspect he had malignant malaria which aggravated his condition.”
