illitrate: another fake news

how does a terrorist disarm an opponent and allow him to flee?

gratiaeo: This otueke man self.
Smh

PointB: In any case when soldiers defect, they move from one opposing army to the other. In other words, Nigeria is at war with Boko Haram not Cameroon, hence our soldiers can only defect from Nigeria Army to Boko Haram terrorists, not join Cameroon's Army.

That's why this topic is arrant nonsense!

Gbawe:

This is what has gained GEJ uniform condemnation from virtually all his peers worldwide while his brainwashed fans talk and attack everyone, including a mere journalist like Isha Sesay, as if the world is deliberately against their oga. Even as this allegation is not verified, I would not be surprised if this turns out to be true because many unprecedented and terrible developments, such as that claimed here, are the outcome of the kind of callous self-servitude and corruption GEJ is working with even the worst despot like Abacha did not display.

GEJ is literally destroying every Nigerian institution with his myopic greed and lust for power at all cost. He has virtually bankrupted Nigeria buying support he assumes will help him remain in power. He has, to the detriment of Nigeria, been capitulating to political blackmailers and extortionists from day one and since he was sworn in as acting President !!! Why will we not witness the destruction and dismantling of the Nigerian Army when $18 billion disbursed to strengthen our Army's capability against Boko Haram was embezzled under GEJ? When the money that is to be used to defend the nation is looted (something we did not even see under the worst dictators) then what else do Nigerians need to see to note , as many have stated already, that GEJ is a "very dangerous President"?

olapluto: 480!!! WOW!
Well, when they wont get salary on time, have to beg for bullets, and not assured of their family welfare in case they die in action, I dont blame them.
But 480 is an alarmingly high number. The president is not even bothered. He is setting a very very very disturbing precedence here in Nigeria. Never have we had so many deserters.
It is a shame that in a time of war, our leaders are weakening our army.
I fear that by the time GEJ hands over (hopefully next year), he may not have more than 32 states to hand over. Systematic disintegration of Nigeria is going on under a president that is happy to weaken the army to prevent a coup d'etat rather than equip the army to maintain territorial integrity of the country.

RaptorX: Keep on believing the topic is arrant nonsence, where does it say they defected to the Cameroonian army, it say they fled to Cameroon meaning they are seeking asylum in Cameroon so as not to fight BH.

Obiagelli: btw this is just comming in, i don't know how true.


Why 480 Nigerian
Soldiers Defected,
Cameroon’s Role – JJ,
Omojuwa reports
?The BBC reports that some 480 Nigerian
soldiers have fled into Cameroon following
fierce fighting with Boko Haram militants.
This has since been confirmed by the
Cameroonian Army spokesman Lt Col Didier
Badjek who said said the soldiers have been
disarmed and were now being accommodated
in schools.
The Nigerian Army was planning to court
martial them and send them to firing squad
over what it deemed as mutiny. The soldiers
decided to cross over. They have been
disarmed and put in a classroom in the
Maoua Area of northern Cameroon. The
Cameroon information minister has confirmed
it. They are the soldiers who refused to fight
last week until they are better equipped. All
480 of them. They were stationed in Borno
state. Cameroon’s role appears to be a form
of diplomatic support because they could have
rejected their appeal to defect. Cameroon
closed its borders last week but is now
allowing defectors into its territory.

henrysam:
Weakening of nigerian army was an inheritance. Gej did not.

cirmuell: i hope this is what it is

maclatunji:
That report is even worse than fleeing from the battle zone! If they fled, it shows that they were taking orders before the fire-power of the opposition made them run. If they mutinied, it shows that there is no control of Nigeria's troops and the chances of defeating Boko Haram is slim.
Either way, it is very bad news.

Obiagelli:
even at this, its totally shameful and unacceptable .
