just as someone said above, Some just put on the forces attire without knowing the rules and regulations of those attire. I believe that when forces see forces they should respect one another sine they all working for the nation's security. Having perceived the presence of the dispersed Soldiers, the police should have allow them way immediately. What's the point of flapping the wings when you are surrounded by pointing objects. The police think they are cats in the presence of the lions |

Offpointng: "they might have been on orders and late coming is always punished in the military" You just ruined everything you wrote with the above. Next time, when they are on orders again, let them pull down the bloodi traffic lights that doesn't recognize official orders. 2 Likes 1 Share |

This probably wouldn’t have happened if there were traffic lights but welcome to Nigeria where police still direct traffic with hand. |

Munamoqel: The soldiers are not expected to repel attacks in a civilian setting (except martial law had been declared). Nigeria being a lawless nation is what allows for soldiers to respond to such. The DSS and the police SWAT teams are empowered to do that. 1 Like |

do4luv14: ^^^ I don't have the full details of the case of the soldier on a bike you referred to. Did the police give a reason for stopping him and seizing the bike? You may want to give more info if you have it. What is revealing is your description of the traffic stop of this lone soldier as a lack of 'respect'. That is the problem right there. This matter of 'respect' (or the lack of it) is a recurring decimal in these clashes between Nigerian soldiers and everybody else. Nigerian soldiers break laws at will and on the rare occasions they are called out, they call it 'disrespect'. Respect is earned. It is not decreed into existence by a military court. It is earned. And respect is not a cover for condoning illegality - that is nothing but utter perversion. Respect is earned!! Nigerian military personnel are the privileged class who routinely refuse to obey common sense laws or rules that govern everyone else. And we think this country will ever make it when an institution like the military has this ingrained mindset? Never. We won't. You claim that the 3 police officers controlling traffic were 'disrespectful' for stopping the bus. In your words, traffic control that slows down a bus with soldiers is 'silly excuses'. Well, a man just doing his job is now dead. His family will have to face life without him now. A breadwinner, a son, possibly a father, uncle, brother, etc. gone forever. And all because Nigerian soldiers have been indoctrinated to believe they are above the law - and can take lives at will without any consequences whatsoever. If you can't see anything wrong with all this I don't know what else to say to you. 1 Like |

HedwigesMaduro:1932: Disbanding the "Bonus Army" Though not as destructive or deadly as the NYC Draft Riots, the 1932 Bonus Army attack was notable for the use of federal military troops to clear out a bunch of veterans looking for help from the government -- help that was promised to them anyway. In the years following the 1929 stock market crash, the situation for struggling World War I veterans quickly went from bad to worse. Congress promised them a cash payment of up to $1 for every day they were in active service, to a maximum of $500. That's a cool $9,300 in 2020 dollars, more than enough to survive the Great Depression. For most vets, that money was to be paid over the span of years, but with the Depression in full swing, everyone needed cash right then. The veterans formed an activist group called the "Bonus Army" to go to Washington and advocate for the pay, setting up camp on Capitol Hill. President Herbert Hoover's attorney general ordered the police to remove them, which did not go as planned. Hoover soon got wind of the incident and ordered General Douglas MacArthur and tanks from the 3rd Cavalry Regiment to do the job. The Army shot tear gas and marched on the Bonus Army with fixed bayonets. As the vets retreated from Capitol Hill, the U.S. Army burned their encampment. 1967: Detroit's 12th Street Riot The second largest riot since the 1863 Draft Riot in New York happened in Detroit in 1967 -- and was a harbinger for the tumultuous years to come in the United States. In that year, almost 160 race riots broke out across the United States, earning the nickname the "Long, Hot Summer of 1967." None of the uprisings were more destructive than in Detroit, where what started as a police raid on an illegal after-hours bar turned into one of the country's most violent and destructive riots ever. For five days, the citizens of Detroit ran wild through the streets. It was one so rampant that then-Governor George Romney (yes, Mitt Romney's dad) chose to call in the Michigan National Guard. When even that didn't work, President Lyndon Johnson called in the 82d and 101st Airborne. In the wake of the riot, 43 were dead and more than 2,000 buildings were destroyed. 1967: Newark Riots This is another significant disturbance of the 1967 "Long, Hot Summer," particularly due to the level of destruction the riots caused the city of Newark -- a level from which the city has never fully recovered. As middle-class white Americans left urban areas after WWII, Black Americans still faced widespread racism and discrimination in those cities. Finding a decent job and a place to live became more and more difficult, even though those opportunities existed. The frustration of Black Newark boiled over as the city descended into poverty. City politicians and police mostly remained white. The frustration came to a head when a Black cab driver was beaten unconscious and dragged to a police station by white officers for passing a double-parked police vehicle. There, he was charged with assaulting the police officers. Rumors spread that he was killed in police custody. He wasn't -- but he was badly beaten. What began as a protest against police brutality soon turned into widespread |

Splitmind:Heard the police corked their rifle and shot at the soldiers while bullet brushed one of the soldiers head and that got the soldiers angry. I've seen an instance where policemen were ready to beat a senior officer in army cos they feel he was alone. One of them even brushed the officers face with his palm. If the officer had come back for them with soldiers and deal with them it would have been a story of soldier beat police without telling the true story of what transpired. Ain't justifying what the soldiers did sha but some of those police sef get their own for body. E too much for some of them abeg |

Offpointng: I believe this happened at OJO Barracks right? Everybody knows the police there control the traffic there, people turning and switching lanes, where were they going that they couldn't wait 2 minutes for their lane to be passed. So it is now a crime to stop cars on a lane military men are on? Like seriously? Do you even think these set of soldiers will obey traffic light? I don't think so. Nawa oo, I doubt this country can move forward we have a very warped mentality as citizens. 1 Like |
