The militarization of Delta State is quite unsettling and was noticed in my last visit. Full stone and sandbag roadblocks on a federal express road complete with guard house gave a picture of a state at war. There were many others on major local roads causing traffic jams. Funny enough the back roads were empty which makes nonsense of the show of force in front.

Delta State is really at war, kidnapping is at an all time high, the localities have to get together chase out such bad elements and burn down their houses. You guys should travel to places like Uyo, Calabar and Port Harcourt to understand your predicament.

We did not see any soldier manhandling any body.

nofij: While i dont really support the modus operandi of the Nigerian Army, i think they have brought relative paece to Delta state as a whole. Before now, the rate of kidnapping in agbor kept on increasing while molestation and robbery in my school (ABRAKA) was on another level. Students of Delsu can testify to this fact.
I really think the earlier we started adapting to the army in our environ, the better for us.

Exactly, almost all the major roads in Warri and Ughelli have been defaced with those sandbags and stones,you can't move an inch without seeing a military checkpoint,delta state is under siege, Kidnapping replaced militancy and the govt responded by sending in more JTF troops, even neighbouring Bayelsa that is more hot headed is not as militarized as Delta ,

DELTA STATE IS A DANGEROUS PLACE TO LIVE IN. PLACES LIKE AGBOR, WARRI, KOKORI NEEDS MILITARY PERSONELS IN THE AREA. DESPITE THE PRESENCE OF SOLDIERS IN AGBOR, THERE WERE CASES OF KIDNAPPING LAST WEEK. PEOPLE ARE BEING KIDNAPPED EVERYDAY IN AGBOR, CASES OF ARMED ROBBERY INCREASING,CULTISM IN AGBOR IS RAMPANT.

Instead of terrorising Boko Haram militants, they are terrorising innocent civilians. Rubbish! It is only in Nigeria that soldiers leave their barracks and roam the streets with horsewhips, expecting motorists to clear the streets so they can drive around unhindered and daring anyone to utter a word in protest. Against the acceptable practice all over the world, Nigerian soldiers even arrest and detain civilians! They make a habit of preying on policemen, fighting them at every opportunity and killing them at the slightest provocation. They frequently clash with members of the other armed forces as well, as if they are enemy combatants at the warfront. Except government calls these errant soldiers to order, our society will became more and more lawless.

Oh yes, I am in support of this.

Harassment and killing of innocent citizens in the Boko infested cities by the military was publicly celebrated here on NL.

Agbor youths should get use to it(collateral damage) till they decide to form their own version of civilian JTF against kidnappers.

Agbor people are too stubborn. You people should learn your place and try as much as possible to avoid soldiers. When they say do not do a thing, do not do it else you will be in soup. I am sure they haven't even built a torture camp near agbor unlike my town where they could seize people and they may not return or even shoot a person fatally for disobedience.

Soldiers have their downside but their upside surpasses their downside. Agbor people should try to obey.

Acidosis: Soldiers are everywhere in Delta state..


Warri, Agbor, Sapele, (Asaba is fair and peaceful).

You and I know, a place like Agbor or Warri without the Military men is risky to live in.

Its obvious the way you people build your houses with "Chains, bars, and very thick iron rods"... like say una dey live with devil himself


So bro, u gotta endure..


Meanwhile I will never forget the day one barbaric gang malhandled my friend in Warri...
The guy was mercilessly beaten for doing nothing.

I'll never forget the day, a thief nearly chop off my friend's left arm because of wristwatch in Warri.. The trace is still evident till date.

I'll never forget the day, a guy pointed a gun at my forehead at about 7pm in my room because of ordinary Laptop.

I'll never forget the day, a group of guys killed a Police officer along express road, Abraka..

I'll never forget the day a group of cultist killed an innocent guy in a compound I lodged on my visit to a town in Delta st.

I'll never forget the night of terror in Campus 2, when a group of armed men raid the entire Abraka town for over 3hrs, banks were robbed, ATMs destroyed.. Bullets on the streets..

These are just few out of the many incidence I witnessed within a close period.
and even your no1 MOG in Delta - Oritshejafor can testify, he was once a street rogue and cultist..
I'm sure he killed/or stole too


Infact, I would recommend more security men to help caution the level of arrogance in that place..

Like seriously, don't you people travel out to other states to witness the unending peace?
With all dese bad experiences u are having dt u ave mentioned nw.i dont think u are spiritually okay.Guy see i would advise u go locate dat old mama for ur village wey dey worry you or you go seek deliverance frm pastor.meanwhile no dey paint d image of warri blck i beg you.

I've lived in another state for over 10 years and I've never seen/witnessed a case of robbery..
Infact, here you can leave your door open and travel and you'll still come back to meet your belongings..

Banks here doesn't parade MOPOLs and soldiers..

Here, the only time I get to see a gun is either in the hands of Police or a movie.

But while in Delta.. na small small pikins dem (cultists) dey hol' gun.

Btw, you need to read the write-up again,
that I 'witnessed' doesn't mean I'm involved personally.

Most military men are like that... I remember when some military men in my area guarding a chief asked one of my neighbour to sit on the floor.. The guy refused, the military man cocked his rifle and threatened to shoot him if he disobeyed his next command.. The guy catch ground fast.. His girl friend was there o, the military man left her alone.. After sitting on the floor for some minutes, he was allowed to go home... The guy went to Elelenwo Police station to report the case, involved a superior officer from Bori camp... See how military men started looking for the guy to apologise..

I thought you were complaining about the army are you just another political mad man or what. What do want the security forces to do, when some of your young men decide to become criminals just for fun of it. The kind of harassment you get from boys in Ughelli, Patani, Oleh Agbor is simply ridiculous. Blame your bad social values and leave the army alone. Warri is calm today because of the army and police. Look at Kokori, where an entire town allowed a thug like Kelvin to become lordmayor.

that's the problem.. they hail a known criminal and feed fat from his starch encouraging him to do more.

without the army, delta at as a whole will become a nightmare
