My inner neanderthal is rejoicing over this, but the rational, civilized, un-Nigerian part of me seriously condemns the actions of both the chairman and the soldier.
Anyway, birds of the same lawless, uncivilized feather flock together in a dark continent called Africa.

One would av thought u'd also mention dat nobody sees him/herself as being above d law in d civilized counries u referred 2. Dats even without emergency rule mind u! Lets assume d man was a BH accomplice, & was left 2 jump queue(as ur comment implied) What would ur comment be, if d title of dis thread reads "Boko Haram Accomplice Allowed 2 Escape JTF Checkpoint in Borno" Think about it
Re: Borno LG Chairman Punished Publicly By Soldiers by Nobody: 2:10pm On Jul 27, 2013
Just as somebody said, 'everybody should be respected in their offices'. That checkpoint is the office of that soldier and the chairman disrespected him there and besides, the soldier is following an order which does not exempt the chairman.
Nigerian politicians, 'big men', and those with some little power, always want to claim some unclaimables in Nigeria, that was how that Nigerian senator went to humiliate himself at the US embassy the other time. Talking of civility, I think it was in Britain that a soldier(without knowing) performed his duty on the Prime Minister, when the Prime Minister joined the public and he took it in good faith while the soldier was commended. We also read recently that Obama, while a senator, was mistaken for a waiter (can u mistaken a Nigerian senator for a waiter?).
I always respect the soldiers at the checkpoints, those people are human beings no matter how hard they are and considering the condition they work in. If you have ever being in the North(Borno and some part of norther Bauchi, etc), the type of heat you have there and yet these people will be in their full gear all day long and some people will come there trying to claim big man!

In civilised countries, you don't see a public officer breaking the law with no regard for law of the land and other road users. I am not supporting the soldiers but that serves him right.

Re: Borno LG Chairman Punished Publicly By Soldiers by oluwacjay: 2:38pm On Jul 27, 2013
Dis is wat happen wen soldiers are called 2 protect d internal state. Soldiers are trained 2 resist aggression 4 external bodies and thus see dem as enemies. Howeva wen dey are deployed 2 tackle internal insecurity, d citizens are by default deir enemies. Only police & co shd be trained & equipped to tackle internal security challenges. No civilised democratic country will deploy soldiers within its states wen it has police force.

Why is everybody attacking this guy, doesn't he have a point?

On one hand you have to commend the soldiers for upholding law and order.

I think he just has a problem with the punishment.

Yes they do, all the time.

Its just that they are always punished consistently in a civilized manner, I think that is the point he was trying to make.

No he isn't above the law, but the frog jump punishment is out of place, he could simply have been detained.

Why are we all acting like we don't see soldiers telling ordinary civilians to frog jump all the time.

Here in Lagos, I see that almost on a weekly basis, and there is no SOE here.

Fadelex:
can't believe this.... you say ignorant soldiers, well, lemme educate you
law respects no-one. this people you call ignorant are the reason some people are still living in that volatile region, the work like clock...they keep vigil and these politicians that started this problem still want to be treated like they are better than others... the local govt chairman should be thanking his fate if not he would have been gunned down, y would someone reasonable break away from a check point? do u remember of a perm sec in kaduna last year? he was fired at cuz he refused to be checked..he later die

last bullet: if you have any reason to break away from queue at checkpoint, go down and approach the officer, officers are human like us and they will surely permit you if you have a convincing reason.

You raised some very good points, he could have been shot impulsively for breaking away from the checkpoint, and the Local Governor then would have no one to blame but himself.

The question now is what are the rules of engagement as pertains to civilians? Is "frog jumping" an officially acceptable means of punishment by the armed forces to civilians?

After he had been verified to be a civilian, I would think protocol would state that he be detained, even if its just for a day (to send a strong message).

I really have never heard of any military protocol that allows for physical punishment of civilians, but I could be wrong if its in their rule book.

We shld not use what obtains in civilized climes whr pple obey d law as a yardstick 4 judging d soldiers action in an environment of lawlessness n offensive disregard for established laws..nobody is above d law..i commend d soldier for his sense of duty.we need more of dat .

CIVIL LESSON: NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW

I have heard this argument before.

Really it is kind of tough when you compare the lawlessness in Nigeria to other civilized countries.

However, we as Nigerians, are trying to get to the status of being a "Civilized Country".

What we have now in Nigeria, is that Law enforcement do not consistently enforce the rules, and when they eventually do, it ends up being in a harsh manner.

If they enforced the laws consistently, I mean 24/7/365, in a civilized manner, then I believe we will become a civilized country.

Remember when the Soldier man was driving on BRT, and Fashola had to arrest him? That guy was supposed to be the epitome of a Law abiding citizen, yet he was driving blatantly in BRT. Point is, if these Law enforces enforced the law, all the time, in a civilized way, I think Nigeria becomes a civilized country.

But you are right, it is tough in this "Jungle".

Why did you not condemn d so called chairman and likes of him who always think they are special citizens in Nigeria, if all those civilians could wait in line so must the Mr. Chairman! Kudos to the soldier man

the soldiers HAD NO RIGHT to make the man frog jump. It is UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Datz d same way deze soldiers make people strip on the road (even ladies). That is wrong!
