These are the same soldiers who threw away their weapons and run for their dear life anytym them "big boyz" come callin.

Read the story well. The driver wasn't beating the checkpoint. Eyewitness said he was trying to overtake a trailer.
In sane countries, the soldiers will be tried for manslaughter

Why would a driver want to overtake a trailer at a checkpoint in a sane country? undecided

Meanwhile, a witness, who pleaded anonymity, told newsmen that the driver allegedly attempted to overtake a truck at the checkpoint.
accordin to the reports, the bus was tryin to get away (apparently, a very bad move on the part of the driver). Not runnin towards the soldiers. It wasnt a threat that ought to be eliminated. The best possibe course of action wld have been to aim for the tyres to stop the bus in its tracks.
Concernin ur qstn,
i'd assess the threat level and shoot to disarm (not to kill) him if i sniff any forms of imminent danger.
Soldiers get rules of engagement man. . .you just dont go blazin over anythin that moves. . .that aint soldiering. . . .thats pure undiluted act of cowardice.

Stop spilling thrash. With the current situation in the northen axis....nothing less is expected..the guy was just unlucky, that a bullet hit him....if the ak47 was fired directly at the bus. We will be counting bodies not just one person. Besides If the bus was conveying terrorists and an attack was successfully carried out at the check point.you are one of the people that will post that the soldiers are incompetent.

Re: Soldiers Kill Student At Checkpoint In Katsina. by koboko69: 1:26pm On Dec 27, 2013
shortgun: OK, here is my take on d unfortunate incidence.
1. The driver is wrong for trying to beat a military checkpoint or any other checkpoint.

2. The soldier acted foolishly by targeting the occupants of the vihicle, his aim should be to halt d vihicle; he should've aimed for d tires or driver this will bring the vihicle to a
halt.

3. The driver, the soldier and the commanding officer are culpable. I rise.
RIP to d dead.

Una go just dey post rubbish. Did u read the post at all. Soldiers opened fire on the bus...are u expecting something like soldiers opened fire on the tires of the bus or on the engine of the bus. For all i care...if an ak47 put on rapid...was fires directly at the bus...we have so many injured or dead. The fuy was just unfurtunate to be hit by a stray bullet...courtesy the fooolish driver

Pls military checkpoint is not police checkpoint...those military guys are risking their lives there-could be a suicide bomber or terrorists moving.
If you aint got shit to hide,stop when you are halted at a military check point.

Re: Soldiers Kill Student At Checkpoint In Katsina. by toshmann(m): 2:26pm On Dec 27, 2013
Crossing a military check point is tantamount to suicide anywhere in the world. Soldiers are human beings. They've seen war, they've seen their friends killed by terrorist who crossed military check points. They don't know who is who. No normal human being will cross their check point, if you cross it then you are not normal, you get liver, you fit dey dangerous, etc

The US military does it too.

The driver is to be blamed. For those saying the tires should be shot and not the bus itself. Remember, soldiers are trained to KILL. Not to arrest but to KILL. Na wetin dem sabi. Blame the fed govt for not upgrading our police who are trained to arrest. Police should be the ones handling this crisis, not soldiers.

Finally, don't forget to blame boko haram for creating the terror environment that makes this whole scenario possible

We Nigerians dont value life. So it is now ok for soldiers to kill innocent unarmed civillians?! Seen. Just for one second think it was your own innocent brother in that bus going for that wedding. This that happened is the same thing as if the soldiers dragged him out of the bus and put a bullet in his head, it is MURDER. Besides, we've only heard the story as the soldiers are telling it, abi na military spokesperson tell us wetin happen.
