That's what he signed up for, to exchange his life for that of those he's protecting. He has done his part, now I hope the government will do theirs in making sure his family is well compensated, plus a hero's burial.

Kogi State is for peace

Military men are the people I pity most in this life. Imagine, staying awake all night while everyone else is asleep, coming out to face gun wielding criminals while others run for their lives, living their families to crisis spots of unfamiliar environment while the inhabitants go into hiding, and still getting killed in number. They signed for it but I see them as slaves and I pity them.

What was the cause of death ? Was he drinking local gin, before crawling out into the street where he was run over by a renegade donkey, or was he killed by an irate female pleasure consultant who was not paid for services rendered.

Please elaborate, since inquiring minds DEMAND to know all details of this tragic incident.

He was shot during a rescue operation.

Abeg make we hear word. Policemen do this job better than them, and yet they don't block our ears everyday with this unnecessary lamentation and demand for undeserved respect.

It's the gallant policemen who protect us from daily criminality (armed robberies and kidnapping) that we should appreciate more, not arrogant soldiers who prance about with a stupid chip on their shoulders, bullying and intimidating unarmed civilians.

Why should soldiers do the job of the police?

That's why we have anti kidnapping squad

Misplaced priority

Died for nothing

Sorry to say


He died a BIG fool

RIP to the not-so-gallant soldier.

What annoys me where these soldiers are is, when you see them intimidating/punishing civilians, you will think they have the balls to confront kidnappers, robbers, and terrorists.

Let the dead rests.

These guys are usually savage. Only few are good. That's why I rarely pity them..


Rip shaa

May his soul rest in peace !

His guardian angel will be so ashamed of him.
He died for the wrong reason.

Cos say Na oil tycoon
But if Na farmers, Oyo Na their case
God help the helpless farmers
Rip to the dead

Sad

Disengaging and eliminating the security forces slow and steadily. RIP

Bokoharam/herdsmen isn't leaving us any sooner because our elites/leaders are the sponsors.

When did it become the job of the army to rescue kidnapped victims? Whats then the job of the police if the army is now involved in Internal security?

A true hero knows when to flee in the face of death. He died a coward i must be honest. What stopped him from fleeing and abandoning the kidnapped victim, why should it be only him that died and others didnt die? At least it should have been the kidnapped victim that died and not him. It pays to be wise in this life

He shielded the victim with his body and gave him car keys to run while receiving the gun shots. Hope u feel stupid for ur comments now after hearing the sacrifice he made

Thanks for explaning why the man was killed...apparently those who killed him were not happy that an army man was doing a police man’s job.

They wouldn’t have killed him if he was a policeman or he wouldn’t have died if he was a policeman abi.

and what pain me most is that their salary is a peanut to those they are protecting

This is sad. I respect soldiers a lot

Seems you wanted to write about Policemen but ended up mixing it with military men
