seunlayi: mutiny / rebel / disloyalty etc are never welcomed in the military in any part of the world hence the high standard military are known for worldwide. The consequence of this action is no longer new since the time of old. Therefore, the judgement is normal in the military, but i hope that the fg will display some maturity has we are all aware of the prevailing circumstances that led to that incident so that they will be pardon soon Well, hardly do "advanced" millitaries sentence soldiers to death for such an offence. It's not even murder, but mutiny and attempted murder. I am very sure the tribunal did not consider the prevailing circumstances while arriving at that judgment. I will be very surprised if the allegations of undersupplies were investigated. I hope the boys are not summarily executed, and that they can appeal the verdict at a civil court of competence. 1 Like |

Read between the lines intellectual minds. All the convicted are all Eastern and southern soldiers It has been proven not long ago, that was rampant conspirators and informant to Boko Haram in the Nigerian Military stationed in the North. This was a deliberate sabotage in their mission which then puts their safety in danger. THE PRESIDENT needs to standup for them, they were not trying to destabilize the country. Rather they were trying to implement the directives of the supposed COMMANDER IN CHIEF (GEJ). The right thing is to reduce their judgement to just outright discharge from the army without pay. Their lives must be spared...if the president fails to check this confidence vote from ordinary Nigerians in the military or ministry. The chances of the president's policy or life can equally be compromised. |

Owoplenty: a being with empathy will not make such barbaric comment.besides,in such cases the c in c will review and mitigate the sentence,it is call "confirmation" Bros, i honestly empathize with the condemned more so when i can even justify their rash action and see good reasons why their frustration could only have led them to do what they did. This afternoon, while eating upstairs in the canteen, i saw the military judge passing death sentence on those guys and looking at their reactions and faces, you could almost touch their emotional breakdown, even if they kept that feeling in check as men. Having said that, and having felt such a pity for them, the fact remains sacrosanct that the wages that mutiny in the army pays is death. It is that crystal clear. Now if you have a bad a temper such as mine, you may ask yourself whether you can exercise the discipline to join. The same reason i could not make it big in football. I have at least on one occasion slapped the referee when i could no longer stomach the glaring and obvious injustice. My point therefore is, while those guys genuinely felt bad about the seeming actions (and inactions) of their bosses, the only honourable route is to retire. My cousin did just that because he could not condone some things. Where however you remain in the army, you must obey the superior and hearken unto hierarchy, the alternative to that is death by firing squad. No sentiments. Let us pray that the C in C gives them pardon. Thank you for teaching me what confirmation is and the difference between confirmation and affirmation. |

If not wickedness, how on earth will you send a man to the war front hungry? Does it mean that this so called generals don't know that these soldiers are human beings like every other person out there? Imagine keeping them in Maidugri hungry, without allowance and at the same time without rotation? Where were those that were suppose to change them? Ohhh! My heart bleeds as I write this because Boko Haram guys will be laughing at them now. All the ogas at the top should remember that DIA IS GOD oooooooo |

It's understandable the emotions most people feel here,but look the constitution of the military anywhere in the world is clear to the soldiers that serve within it. Mutiny in the military is a very GRAVE offence,especially when you try to kill a superior officer, a general for that matter, a GOC for that matter. Do you guys know a GOC is like next in hierarchy to the chief of army staff? This action of the soldiers shows gross indiscipline & the soldiers knew what consequences they'd face for such an action(by the constitution of the military) if caught yet they went ahead to do it. This action of theirs is a direct threat to even the life of the president & that's why the military doesn't joke with such things. If any soldier can do this,it means that they can easily sell secrets of the military to enemies of the nation & even aid the enemy (which at this point in time is boko haram). It's a sad thing,but the soldiers knew that a death sentence is usually the reward for such an action,but they still went ahead to do it. |
Re: 12 Soldiers Who Attacked GOC Sentenced To Death by Itydee(m): 6:04pm On Sep 16, 2014 |
This is the most stupid judgment of all times. it not stupid because those men were judged unfairly , but it is stupid because at this point in time in our war effort with Boko haram you don't tie soldiers to stakes and shoot them. Who will fight the remaining war? They should have delayed judgment until the war with BH is won. Now with 95 % of the convicted guys being Christians it now will open the military and the Federal government to more criticism and bias from the Christendom. it now is very obvious the guys in the battle front are Christians and the Moslem GOC and senior officers deny them food and ammunition so they can die in the hands of BH. Smart isn't it? . All the same it is them the northern GOCs that will be asked to live strict Islamic lifestyles orchestrated by the BH sect . Already BH have over run the homes and villages of the service chiefs. they are now refugees They cant go home no longer. I wonder where they will vote and who they will vote for in the next election if ever election will hold in their domain. |

Hero10001:Mehnnn, Hero, Maybe they would be instantly killed by the next loyalists of the GOC which may actually defeat their reasons for the shooting and you know DHQ ? DHQ may say , the boys are BH loyalists , I believe the boys actually planned their actions sha cuz I wanna think it is not something they just plan and execute that day , they shoulda been nurturing some ill feelings for the GOC and the corpse of their colleagues motivate execution of that plan that day !! I also wish the GOC get kpanshed but the Igbo/Christians in those list can give it another undertone ! Howfar bro, U heard about the FighterJet that disappeared ... Naija4Fun |

Controversy: Double whala….. the GOC left unhurt,,,, yet they were convict to death. I wish they could have killed the GOC and it would server as deterrent to those oga at the top. It is easier to arrange and convict them, but it is difficult for to find lasting solutions to the reason for their agitations.U have spoken well but u concluded it like another religious shekarau |
Re: 12 Soldiers Who Attacked GOC Sentenced To Death by Shirbrown(f): 6:22pm On Sep 16, 2014 |
That you are in the military doesn't make you lose your civil right, too bad Nigeria is a country where the common man has no right and cannot afford justice. These soldiers complained to their GOC and have been complaining to no avail so i believe they tried diplomacy and it was of no good to them. Not condoning their lack of self control and indiscipline but com'on guys they too are flesh & blood. They failed the 11th commandment "thou shall not miss", shouldn't have missed the GOC's head. The next in command would've been so happy to be the new GOC and in that spirit make light of this matter and perhaps grant them pardon, reduce their sentence or even bury the case entirely. With the assaulted still alive he will make sure they pay with their lives either by due process via the court verdict or other means....! I feel for them cos am almost sure they are going down for this, is a pity tho. |

Tell me NIGERIANS, who doesn't deserve a SECOND CHANCE? If our President does, so do our SOLDIERS. I understand some of us are heartless as to justify why these soldiers must be killed to serve as a useless deterent.Wondered why they took the reckless action, jux place yourself, infact imagine yourself in their shoes, what will you? *sobs* RECOMMENDATN: Since the GOC is alive, plz they should be pardoned as they felt dead when they sighted the corpse of their colleagues. If you got conscience plz proudly support the #DontkillourSoldiers campaign. 1 Like 1 Share |

Arsenalholic: They should've thought about that(emboldened) before embarking on a fool's mission. I see this ^^^ as a mumu comment. So it is when it comes to the generals, GOC and the other ogas spending the boys salary and demoralizing them that the so called discipling can be compromised? I entered Bonny camp today and see some accommodations that replicate that of makoko getho. even the eye clinic furniture is so dirty and old you can not use in in class room.

Everyone is talking about DISCIPLINE in the ARMY, about how INSUBORDINATION AND MUTINY IS PUNISHABLE BY DEATH, about how LOYALTY must NEVER BE QUESTIONED but let me ask: DISCIPLINE: Is it an act of "discipline" to steal soldiers allowance, make them go to war on empty stomach and in tattered gear? Where is the discipline when Top Army brass steal and sell soldiers munitions to the Enemy? Where is the Discipline when officers snitch on one another and their strategy, to the enemy? Its either there is Discipline .... or there NO DISCIPLINE! Army cant have it both ways! In "Disciplined Military Outfits", the Life and wellbeing of a Soldier is of top-most importance to EVERYONE, even to Civilians. We have come to understand that our own Nigerian military top-brass are so corrupt that they dont value the life of their service men, who rae faced with death, killed like chickens by the enemy, deaths which are avoidable IF THERE WAS DISCIPLINE AMONGST ARMY TOP BRASS! The INDISCIPLINE is at THE TOP... not the rank and file. If these guys are to be executed, then their C.O and GOC and other top brass needs to be handed over to Boko Haram .....for Justice! Source the Geese, ....source the Gander! The POT does not accuse the KETTLE of being Black now? "Silencing a Problem" does not wish away the problem, .....if care is not taken, those Top Brass would soon realize that "A king is nothing without his lieutenants"! Finally, let me quote two famous lines to summarise: "Those who make peaceful protest impossible, make violent overthrow, inevitable" "When INJUSTICE becomes LAW, ....RESISTANCE becomes a DUTY" Nuff Said, let those who have ears, listen! Lastpage! |
