Removal of encyclopedic and sourced material from Muhammadu Buhari's page

You are not acting within the orbit of proper Wikipedia etiquette. Please proceed to the Muhammadu Buhari's Talk Page to discuss things. Kunkuru (talk) 22:20, 10 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Irrelevant material removed. use buhari talk page

Explain why the government policy of sending NMTC graduates overseas is irrelevant when there's a note about the NMTC getting renamed the NDA? Kunkuru (talk) 22:39, 10 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

NMTC graduates were not only sent to England. They were sent to allied academies in England, Australia, India, Canada and other countries. Reading of other texts in addition to Luckham confirm this. I've provided a reference to Agbese's book as well. Please do not alter the language of "allied academies" vs. England alone. British academies are allied academies but not all allied academies are British. I'm happy you finally viewed the reference. I suggest you lay a hand on Agbese's book and research Nigerian military history during the 60s. Kunkuru (talk) 23:21, 10 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This back and forth is getting frustrating. Who provided the link to Luckham's text? You're telling me to read the book I provided? Don't be tone deaf! Please lay a hand on Agbese's book. You kept deleting references to this yesterday calling them irrelevant until you clicked the link.

Please don't be tone deaf. Provide countermanding information that can be corroborated if you disagree with the Defence policy of sending NMTC graduates to foreign/allied academies. I've provided 3 sources yet you remain intransigent and committed to suppressing information. You are not acting in the true spirit of Wikipedia. Kunkuru (talk) 06:14, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You can read, correct? What do the words from this article say? "The Nigeria Military Training College (NMTC), Kaduna No. 8 Course was to have started in September 1963. The initial training was to have been for four months in NMTC Kaduna after which the successful cadets were to proceed to various foreign military institutions for the detailed officers’ course and commissioning. - See more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/11/the-nigerian-defence-academy-a-pioneer-cadets-memoir/#sthash.Oo9A0qMO.O9K15HeG.dpuf - PLEASE READ AND QUITE BEING STUBBORN. Also go to your local library and read about the policy in Dan Agbese's book. This is not communicating encyclopedic information about the Ministry of Defence policy at the time.

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Kunkuru (talk) 10:05, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
