Former Director, Medical Training Operation, at the Defence Headquarters, Air Vice Marshal M. M. Maisaka (Rtd) is dead. He was reportedly assassinated by unknown gun men Monday night at his residence in Rigasa, Kaduna State.
He was killed alongside his orderly.
A message making the round from one of his children said “Innalillahi wa innailaihir raijun…pls say a prayer for my Dad (Air vice marshal maisaka). He was assassinated at his residence yesterday alongside his orderly.”
Maisaka is known as one of the finest neurologists in Nigeria before he took ill sometime ago, and went to India for treatment. He returned from India about two months ago.
Celebrated as an upright man, he was said to be outspoken and honest.
Yet to be confirmed report revealed that a threat message was sent to him about two weeks ago, stating that he was going to be killed Monday night.
The source said the threat message was reported to the security operatives.
