Must the Nigerian army be involved in the smallest domestic affairs, nawa ooo when the real gbege come who do we now call ?

can't the government train the police to fully take responsibility for any domestic occurrences like other countries. The only time you see soldiers in a sane country would be during extreme natural disasters, and national threats but in Nigeria the pettiest issues and they would bring the Nigerian army , thats disrespect

It was a good thing that the policemen together with some soldiers arrived earlier to safe them.


This our Nigerian version on how to catch robbers robbing a bank, and not the American way.


No matter what, you they must surely come out. If hungry no catch them, konji go catch them, if konji no catch them, sickness go hold them.

It's okay

Thank God

Thanks God for that,
