Soldiers, Policemen In Free-for-all Over Uniform by kadas01(m): 11:47am On Jun 26, 2015 |
By Ugochukwu Alaribe Aba—Hell was let loose yesterday in Aba, Abia State, as soldiers and a team of mobile policeman engaged themselves in a fierce shoot-out over alleged assault on a policeman in the city. Vanguard gathered that soldiers of the Forward Operation Base of the 144 Battalion, stationed at Ngwa High School, Aba, had confronted a MOPOL officer, who was riding on a motorcycle, on why he wore a camouflage, which they claimed did not belong to the police. Eyewitnesses told Vanguard that the soldiers, not satisfied with the response of the policeman, attempted to pull off the camouflage, but the police officer sprayed tear gas on the soldiers and a fight ensued. The policeman, attached to the MOPOL 55, Aba, returned to his base where he mobilised his colleagues and stormed Ngwa High School to engage the soldiers. In the ensuing melee, there was exchange of gunfire and one of the policemen sustained a gunshot injury. A soldier, who declined to have his name in print, told Vanguard that the policeman refused to properly identify himself, when asked to do so, and a fight started. Spokesman of Abia State Police Command, Onyeke Ezekiel, who confirmed the incident, said the injured policeman was receiving medical attention. He said senior officers of both agencies had commenced investigations the fracas. Source: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/06/soldiers-policemen-in-free-for-all-over-uniform/#sthash.1nnB4DvO.dpuf |

Nigerians soldiers behaving anyhow since the time of military rules. You guys need to be sent to Sambisa before it's too late. There is enough free-for-all mission there. You get to wander around looking for Boko boys. Copyright ©. 2015. All rights reserved 1 Like |

The military is the only force that is allowed to wear the camouflage. Infact the camouflage is made for the military, it is an abuse to the uniform when other security agents put it on. |

styno22: Who informed you that military is the only force that is allowed to wear the camouflage? The last time I checked though, Nigerian Police is an armed force. |

Duru1:Are u not in Nigeria? the new government has given directive that henceforth camouflage should only be worn by the military and that the paramilitary should stop wearing or using it. They gave the paramilitary until January 2016 to retrieve all camouflage dress or uniform. |
