Found this on the Nigerian military website
Lt. Kyom Leo's emotional story told on various social media channels, continues to draw myriads of sympathies, tributes and encomiums from Friends and Family and other well meaning people all over the Country; One Miss Nkechi Afamu, a Friend to the Late Soldier wrote “RIP LEO, My Childhood friend. We all parted ways after kaduna crisis in 2000. I can’t believe you are gone, what happens to Tida and Wyari your lovely sisters. I can’t question God but its hard to say Goodbye. REST ON KY. we will all miss you.”
Another Commenter on a Leading Blog also posted this “Chei!! I actually saw this guy (Lt. Kyom Leo) last year in picture on General Onwuamaegbu’s FB wall. The General was visiting Sandhurst Military Academy and this guy (Lt. Kyom Leo) was one of the Cadets training there. The General even remarked that this guy would one day make a fine officer. What a waste!”
“RIP Gentleman Officer! RIP Lieutenant S Kyom Leo of 58 Regular Course! You died as a Hero! Doing what we have signed for! To serve whenever the clarion calls and whatever the price or odds!”
The Story of Lt. Kyom Leo, a deeply Religious and Courageous Soldier whose steadfast belief in the Country for which he paid the Ultimate price will continue to inspire the Nigerian Military to protect our Territorial Integrity and rid Nigeria of all forms of Insurgency and Aggression. He was buried on the 17th of July 2014.
Lt. Kyom Leo who died in fighting for the Nation as her Military
intensifies the Counter Insurgency Campaign, was billed to hold a
Solemnization of Holy Matrimony with his Sweetheart Miss Angela Gaiya on
Saturday the 30th of August, 2014 in Kaduna.

ReplyDeleteIt's not true!!! The army has refused to release the body to his family. It's sickening and painful. They just said prayers and let everyone go. His body hasn't been buried and the family wants it.
ReplyDeleteHe is a military property. The army will perform the burial themselves.

ReplyDeleteRIP Kyom and May God comfort Mummy, Daddy, Wyari and Tidah and even the church at large...
ReplyDeleteHe was a friend, a brother, a room mate and we belonged to the same clique in school, the BQ (Boys Quota). He complained bitterly before his death, about how ill-equipped they were and the unfair treatment to young Nigerian soldiers posted to combat boko haram, these guys operate solely on God's Grace. The more they saw, the less they understood, the sabbotage was glaring and it was like they were sent to die, those were his words. Soldiers were dying, but i never knew it would come to my friend, God's knows better. When we meet in heaven, you will give me the complete gist, how you left unannounced!
ReplyDeletewe d family tank God for comforting us all. he was a brother any1 wud wish for. God knws best. if God can cal His belovd so dat His word wud reach nations, and win souls den we nid nt to mourn. luv u bro. #(Wyari) his sister
ReplyDeleteReally sad.
ReplyDeleteRIP to Hero of our time LEO.
I have a friend in Borno and haven't heard from him... Seriously Praying for him and our Solders.
