They live in barracks, paying no rent, access to free medicals. Children go to military school free. They use their uniform to perpetrate atrocities that load them with money. The top ones collect money from civilians living in mammy market.

If not of boko haram and the nigerdelta militancy, these people are like ministry workers, they are always idle not doing anything in the office. Some dont even have.

Come to think of it, what is their level of education especially the soldiers.
God bless U sir

Twisted country that pays a level 8 graduate less than 70k working in some parastatals and expect corruption not to take place. The country doesn't pay realistic living wages even in the midst of abundant resources. U will pay rent in abuja, transport yourself, feed and raise a family with this amount. APC better address this anomaly or God go punish this government

I'm talking authoritatively about the other ranks,I'm talking about the Airforce and Army to be precise.Go and ask from serving other rank personnels.Ask how much is the pension even for an Air Warrant Officer(highest other rank in the Airforce).
FYI they pay rent,light,water bills and tax.Go check their pay slips if in doubt.
Do ur research well,until then I won't Grace ur stu.pi.di.ty with a reply!
