Why NDA Can’t Expel Cadets For Torturing Civilian – Commandant

[img]http://1.bp..com/-jfSzRX3kDlA/VtBFT6mG2TI/AAAAAAAAYY0/jkUbvzyUc0o/s1600/NDA.JPG[/img][img]http://1.bp..com/-jfSzRX3kDlA/VtBFT6mG2TI/AAAAAAAAYY0/jkUbvzyUc0o/s1600/NDA.JPG[/img]

The Nigerian Defence Academy, NDA, yesterday explained why it could not expel some cadets captured on video torturing a civilian for no just cause.

Nigerians cried out in condemnation of some cadets led by a female, who were shown in a video clip, which went viral last month, dehumanizing a young man, later identified as Amari Sunday, a staff of Abuja Park “N” Pay, for allegedly commending the beauty of one of the female cadets.
While majority of Nigerians called for the expulsion of the cadets, the Commandant of the elite Nigerian military training institution, Major General Mohammed Ibrahim, said they could not be expelled because the time to prosecute them had lapsed.

According to the NDA Commandant, the time frame for expelling any cadet for wrongdoing must not exceed six months from the date the alleged offence was committed.

Speaking at the matriculation ceremony of 466 officer cadets of the 67th Regular Course, Maj.-Gen. Ibrahim noted that the incident in question took place two years ago when the cadets were first termers and had just been in the academy for only three months.

While noting that appropriate disciplinary action had already been taken on the cadets, he urged the newly matriculated ones to consider themselves lucky to have successfully passed the one month intensive military training.

Ibrahim assured that the NDA would give their welfare priority while the enabling academic environment would be provided for their study.
The NDA, situated in Kaduna State was founded in 1964 in response to the defence needs of the country, which gained independence four years earlier, to train officers for the Armed Forces of Nigeria.

So there is a time frame to which an offender can be punished. Hmmmmmmm! Does that mean the people did not report them on time?

Absolute nonsense. The NA should release the erring cadets to the police who will in turn institute a criminal case of assault and battering against them in court. Shielding them from prosecution and punishment under whatever guise is unacceptable.

...Interesting.

This is the silliest excuse I've ever read from a government agency. Are they by implication saying that members of the armed forces are above the law even when they are caught (with evidence) in unauthorised acts?
People should be made to face the maximum consequences for their inhuman acts.

I wonder if the Gen knows that criminal cases have no limitation,except where he is quoting his law says you can away with it.
I wonder if he knows at all,that an assault and battery is criminal

There is no way the lying Nigeria army will prosecute their own even if she killed the young man. They consider your civilian blood useless.

If true, then we are definitely no longer in a Democratic setting but a military regime.

This got me smh. Talk about joining the army with ulterior childish motives.

This is the NDA telling us blatantly that the military has every right to do whatever with civilians. That we should shut up, suck it up and get over it.

This is them telling us to know our place in this nation's hierarchy and stick to it.

This is them telling us it is futile to try to usurp their authority.

This is them telling us we have no rights as civilians as far as the military is concerned.

If we keep quiet about this, there will never be an end to their bullying. We all should be ready to be frog-jumping in our suit-and-tie(s) for the rest of our lives.

Btw last night I dreamt that an 18 year old cadet was beating a 90 year old lalasticlala with his own walking stick cos he wasn't moving his post to fp fast enough.

Then the victims should initiate criminal charges against them in the courts.


Sue them to court. There is ample evidence to sue and win the case.


Or will the so called Nigerian army also stop the judiciary from prosecuting these animals?


I can also murder a soldier and hide the facts until after two years so I will be absolved.


The Idiocy in his logic.
