If you don't end the Royal Niger company, it will end you ~ MNK
There are better ways to go about it than invading a community burning down homes, shooting and killing anyone at sight like rascals.

The Army is professionally trained to carry out a mission like this with intelligence and not act like gangsters controlled by hard drugs

Thesame Army that are being slaughtered like Chicken everyday in the North, how many villages have they burned,
how many villagers did they kill when they were massacred in Niger, Nasarawa, on daily basis in Yobe, Zamfara, Borno, Katsina ans other parts of the North.
Because it happened in the south, level everywhere kill every living thing but when it happens in the north it is called KIA (killed in Action)

Oh I forgot we live in two different countries and two separate laws

That’s nonsense, since when a father have to pay for the sin of his son? The person that committed crime supposed to pay for the crime committed.

Now are you saying if someone from your hood kill a soldier, soldiers should match in in hundreds to kill your entire neighborhood starting from your immediate families? I need answer from you, let start from there


Alexiiydon:
maybe what happened to hamas citizens won’t happen if they give up the terrorists among them to the government but all they did was support them so they deserve what they got tell this people too to give up those who did that to our gallant soldiers them they will be okay ...how will you feel too if one of your relatives or brothers is among the soldiers killed or even your father will you say some citizens are innocent??nobody in that community is innocent because they are one way or the other related to militants who did what happen so they must face the music

if someone in my hood kill a soldier we will March him out and hand him over so he can face the consequences alone not shield him or hide him let them provide those who did what happened simple and if you really want to defend them why can’t you match your family and yourself to the community instead of ranting on NL I think I answered your question

See the community people giving incomplete stories. Who then decapitated the bodies of the military men? They have refused to talk and are looking for sympathy from federal government. If they cannot provide names they should forget about peace

Please dear Daddy and Mommy, forgive me for bringing this here. am doing this because av run out of options and I don't have any other choice. My name is kelly, I gave birth to my boy Ayomide 2 years ago and since then it has been a rollercoaster of one event to another. My fiance abandoned us and I move in back with my parents taking care of my son all alone without any assistance even though he was always falling very sick all the time. I notice that he always feels discomfort when his trying to breath so I looked for money to take my son to the hospital. He was diagnosed with congenital heart defect, a hole in his heart, as the cause of his breathing problems. I've cried my eyes out but if only crying can solve problem. I can't stand to see my child in pain.

I've gone almost everywhere I can possibly go but no hope except for hospital. Doctors say that he will need to undergo surgery at UCH for N4.5million and my family with the help of some very kind hearted people have been able to raise part of N3 million. We have sold off almost everything valuable to us but it's not yet enough, that why I am appealing to well meaning Nigerians, if you're touched to save my son's life, please find it in your kind heart to extend a hand of help to him. Nothing is too small in the sight of God. Am calling kind hearted people, please help save my boys life. Please am also calling upon any NGO that can accept my sons condition please. May God almighty bless you immensely and wipe away sorrow from your eye. Amen.

The truth is now coming out that Okuama people didn't pull that stunt of killing those soldiers.Why would Nigerian Army go raid Olodiama 11 in Bayelsa State today killing suspected killers of the soldiers ?
Nigerian Army exhibited high unprofessionalism by razing down Okuama community without proper investigation.
For those who aren't aware, Okuama community has earlier sent a petition letter to Delta State Government about one of the indigenes from neighboring Ijaw community of Okoloba in Bomadi LGA fermenting trouble.
There should be a thorough investigation to bring to book those behind this act that have claimed the lives of harmless Nigerian citizens at Okuama community and those soldiers that were killed.

There was no peace meeting, you don't go to seek for or mediate with an occupational force, complete with a commanding staff of colonel and majors thus there was never a peace meeting. It was simply a ruse to hit the people unawares,what for? Nobody knows exactly. But my guess was the military must have been caught up in a power tussle btw fueding oil bunkering tycoons tussling over space and all. Maybe they were in the pocket of one tycoon,who decided to use them and shakedown his rival. Of course this rival was having none of it and decided to f**k sh*t up...

This is The simple truth!! Alot of high ranking Officers involve

They are all culpable, having confessed that after the peace meeting with the army, they refused to allow the army take away their supposed leaders for further interrogation.

Hence the violence erupted, stupid illiterates.

Only a fool will belive the story of the army guys going for peace keeping mission. That's what the government wants the media to tell you. That's what they want you to know.

For there to be a reaction of such magnitude, it means the fùck ups of the military guys deployed there don dey full. It was definitely a case of a deal gone wrong.
Even the fleeing members of the community under siege admitted that the soldiers were there on a peacekeeping mission and you are saying only a fool will believe the army narration.

Akpobolokemi or Akpoboloekpa noh reach to take Urhobo lands in the riverine terrain.

there is no way leaders from that community didn’t know about what happen because those people can’t act alone without being paid what happened there is contract killing so stop defending them and ask them to provide who did what happen simple... The Audacity 🖤

Observing with rapt attention.

I pray the militants don't show up for direct and open confrontation with the soldiers.

They can't cos they are no match to them. They only ambushed those they killed cos they are not prepared...

You mind them with their useless comments. You murdered a Lt Colonel and you they call on Amnesty rubbish to come to your aid. They don't know what it means to rise to that level. The investment of the country in that man. Then you took 2 majors and a captain. Odi is in your state , you could have learned but no way. Former President Yaradua spent billions of dollars to rehabilitate them, yet they refuse to let go their criminal tendencies. The military will use them as a scapegoat for other community across the nation to learn.

The Nigerian Army is a cowardly force. The most cowardly in the world.

Is it a show of "strength" to kill unarmed and unthreatening compatriots?

If unknown persons killed your colleagues, painful as it is, why not do the painstaking work of investigating, tracking, smoking them out and bringing them to justice? Is that not how the United States, Israel, and the other big guys we all look up to do it?

So if your soldiers are killed in a particular village, you simply go there and kill every random soft target you see....knowing full well that the actual killer is uncertain or at large? Oya clap for yourselves.
It's always easy to pontificate and write trash on the Internet, you have no skin in the game and real life will always humble 'know it alls' like you.

Read more about military functions. They perform peace keeping, which is not limited to the use of deadly force. Mediation falls under peace keeping. Same thing the US and joint military forces were doing in Afghanistan and Iraq
The military perform peacekeeping function during or after war. Was there any war in Okuama community ?
Was Delta State government or Ughelli South LGA Chairman and other necessary parties aware of the so-called peace meeting ?
A thorough investigation should be set up to know the real people behind this act.
