Why can't you take five minutes to read and understand the post?

The deductions have been on since 17 months ago (sometimes around January 2015) when the IB was still in charge.

Why the soldiers have not found a way to cry out to the media long before now is absurd.

Every worker, especially those fighting to keep us safe deserves to be paid as and when due.

Buratai, heads must roll for this crime.

Itanje Satani.

Even the new Serifat's body language and the snake carrier's daily press-up could not change the corruption. SMH


Please blame GEJ. undecided

Nigerian forces are the most corrupt institutions on the face of the planet. We took some police men and few soldiers as our escorts. On this particular occasion, the police man was looking really neat and well kept. When I made a comment on his looks, I was surprised at the answer I got from him. "I sew my uniforms and buy my boots myself. Sometimes we buy from soldier friends and they buy from us too. Asides the first uniform given to me when I was recruited, I am yet to receive any of such again". This was corroborated by the soldiers. Its a pity.

The solution is instantaneous death penalty for military or civilian top brass in corruption and embezzlement cases.

Is he guilty?

Yes.

Max of a month...

Choice of instantaneous combustion, firing squad, honour suicide or decapitation with a samurai sword.

Execution must be public, brief and unceremonious.

Soldiers of the 1 Division of the Nigerian Army, headquartered in Kaduna, have cried out that their monthly salaries are being deducted by the Army Finance Department without explanations. Their outrage is contained in a letter to the Director of Army Finance Accounts (DAFA). The letter, exclusively obtained by SaharaReporters, said the unexplained deductions have gone on for 17 months.
According to the letter, a staff sergeant, who is on a monthly salary of N73,500 is docked N8,500 monthly, leaving him with N65,000.
Sergeants, who should earn N65,000 have been having N7,000 deducted without explanation, leaving them with a take-home pay of N58,000. Corporals entitled to N58,000 monthly are being paid N52,000, while Lance Corporals are paid N49,000 instead of N52,000 as prescribed by the Army salary structure for officers in that category.
In the letter, the soldiers called on the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Tukur Buratai, to look into their complaints.
Some of the affected soldiers serving in 1 Brigade Sokoto, 35 Battalion, and 3 Brigade Kano told SaharaReporters that there is anger within the lower cadre in the I Division.
“I am a corporal, and my monthly salary, which is supposed to be N58,000:00 has been slashed to N52,000. I was given a letter signed by Brigadier General C.O Udeh, the then Commander of the 1 Brigade, Sokoto, to the Finance Department of 1 Division, Nigerian Army in Kaduna, but the complaint received no response,” said a soldier.
Some soldiers also lamented that they were promoted to the next rank since September 1, 2014, and 2015 respectively, but they are still being paid salaries on account of their previous ranks.
A soldier promoted to the rank of sergeant on 1 September 2015 said he was paidN1,990 as his promotion arrears on 30 January 2016. He also complained that he is still being paid the old salary even after he was paid the measly promotion arrears.
The affected soldiers include those carrying gunshot injuries sustained while on deployment to "Operation Zaman Lafiya," which has been renamed "Operation Lafiya Dole."

This is a common practise in all security agencies. NSCDC, Navy etc Instead of channeling their grieviance towards the army cadre, this complaint should go directly to the presidency. Nigerians and corrupt practise are inseperable.

This is just a tip of the ice berg. Come to federal polytechnic Oko in Anambra state where a large on number of staff have been promoted only on paper since 2010. They are yet to receive the financial benefit of such act. The Management led by one Prof Godwin Onu claims their is no funds yet he keeps employing people every blessed day. staff salaries have mysteriously reduced since January 2016. To our amazement, close relatives, friends and associate enjoy accelerated promotion with financial benefits taking immediate effect. There closed relatives of the management who are staff and have been promoted 3 times since January 2012 from level 6 - 9.
