He is being summoned because of his personal involvement. I don't think the national Assembly actually has any real authority to either punish or reward him...That is the prerogative of the executive.

As usual, he will come with edited video tailored to represent the best interests of the army and highlight the shia as aggressors after which a vote of those in support of the massacre will win---- A beauty of democracy where a foolish majority will always have their way.

Until all this structures deliberately put up exploited and abused by the elite against the masses are pulled down and done with the masses will forever be at the receiving end. To the streets I say.

I kept asking myself this questions,

What happened at those periods the video was skipped?
Did the military start shooting when they got tired of talking (which is unacceptable)?
Did the military first target that Shiite man that was also shooting his own video?
Did the military first try out minimal force (like teargas or rubber bullets)? Which is the normal thing reasonable humans should do, but I guess our military men are bunch of animals.
Why did the military term that encounter as an assassination attempt when nothing in the video shows such attempt?
Did he (coASS) try to annihilate them in the cut off part or was it in that cut off part that they attempted to assassinate him with sticks?

These questions I need answers to and I wish the senate will ask them these questions..

If the COAS should present a video of the happenings just before the genocide I think the Shiites too will come up with the one by the blood thirsty soldiers during the killings .
But please who are the camera men for both sides are they from space .l?

I just hope the senators with conscience will ask the right questions and not display the uselessness seen in their "bow and go" display during the "Noisemakers" profiling.

They should also use this opportunity and ask why the army is so audacious in killing unarmed protesters in the SE and SS of the country. The actions of these men recently and the deafening silence of the terrorist in Aso Rock is ominous.


God bless you!

Neither. You should know neither freedom nor the chains you speak of comes cheap. Both are expensive and often involves the shedding of blood.

Some is it your blood that will be offered to the tree of freedom?

I look all through the length and breadth of Nigeria and see the blood of innocent masses spilling through her streets everyday. Check the statistics and see.

This is a grave and expensive injustice which I stand against. Justice is when the blood of the political elites flow through the streets of Nigeria and their heads used to play ball by the oppressed masses.

The military is already compromised and leading the assault against the masses. The days of visionary revolutionaries like the chuwkuma kaduna's--Men who saw ahead and made efforts to give expressions to it can't be repeated again.

The masses must learn to find the courage and unite against the political class.

crosbreaka:
The Nigerian Senate and House of Reps have summoned Chief of Army Staff, Mr. Tukur Buratai over a clash with Shiite Muslims in Zaria which led to the death of over 60 people.

The Director General of the Department of State Services, Lawan Daura, and “heads of other security agencies,” would be summoned by a House joint Committee on Army/National Security/Intelligence and Public Safety.

Also to appear before the House are the top leaders of the Islamic Movement, “as well as other stakeholders as the House may deem fit to discuss the issue.”

“The Chief of Army Staff will have to come and testify before the committee as an important stakeholder. The committee has the mandate of the House to invite him. The DG, as well as the DSS too, is relevant to this investigation. It will involve heads of other security agencies since the committee will be looking at the security implications or otherwise of the clash. The leaders of the Islamic Movement will also have to come and state their side of the matter before the committee can reach any reasonable conclusions," a National Assembly official said.

they must apologize and promise to change their naughty approach to civilians, cause I see more groups worst than bokoharam surfacing and being sponsored by many rich people from different countries.
NB:when will Senate summon them to account for the killing of 9 innocent and peaceful pro-Biafrans they killed some weeks ago?

Valid point, we have no choice than to keep praying for this country and be courageous to speak the truth whenever the need arises.

Is it because it's Nigeria? In other democratic countries like the USA the Senate has such power. At least to recommend which must be carried out.

Tell me who the boko haram attacked in their first attack. For your information they started in Maiduguri and their first suicide attack was done in Abuja. You guys are twisting it to make it seem the Boko haram attacked only christians at first
Brother face the truth, bokoharam started attacks on non Muslims first before the Abuja attack. Till the north starts accepting responsibility for these groups that pop up from time to time, I'm afraid the cycle will continue (God forbid though)

You do have a point. But this has nothing to do with race, religion or tribe. The truth is that a message needs to be sent to groups like Zakzaky's. Obviously they have been terrorising the citizens of Kaduna for years so as far as I'm concerned, a big bully just met a bigger, meaner bully.

The sooner you learn that idealism is the bedrock of ones own destruction in Nigeria, the better it will be for you.

Open your eyes and see that the masses you so want to liberate are so inert, so dependent on the elites who use the tool of tribalism, nepotism and religious extremism/bigotry to blind fold them.

Nigeria our country is full of mostly illiterates who gets starvation wages and are still happy irking a living with it. The elite use of stomach_insfracture to tame the masses is testament to my position.

So before you go all idealistic, let reality be your guide. The masses you want to unite against the elites are so busy calling the elite his brother/sister just because the elite hail from the same geopolitical zone as him/her, even when that elite have robbed the masses beyond reason.

Reality is our best friend. Before we can shout uhuru! Our minds needs to be liberated first!.

Wrong facts my broda. Go and read about what led to the killing. Besides, America would not jail it's soldier for killing a surrendering taliban. They send their soldier to even kill civilians to keep an unending chain of enemies. Educate yasef bro
