'THE NIGERIAN ARMY ABANDONS ARMY CAPTAIN ATTACKED BY ARMED BANDITS WITH GRENADE IN ZAMFARA. BATTLES FOR LIFE IN PRIVATE HOSPITAL IN ABUJA
A Captain in the Nigerian Army has been abandoned by the Army and left to die after being attacked with a Grenade by Armed Bandits in Zamfara on the 29th December 2018.
The captain who served in various parts of Borno state including Chibok,when Boko Haram was at it's peak,fought many battles some side by side with the Late Col.Abu Ali, engaged Boko Haram terrorists for 6 whole years,after which the Army posted him to Zamfara(giving him no rest whatsoever ever in 7years from the battle field) when the issue of Armed Bandits started getting out of hand.
On the 29th December 2018, while out on a clearance operation in the forests of Zurmi Local Government of Zamfara state, the officers and soldiers were attacked in ambush by Armed Bandits, many soldiers lost their lives..The Grenade that the Armed Bandits threw at the officers shattered the Captains legs,and several particules of the explosive entered and spread into several parts of his body. This on it's own, is also some sort of poisoning to his body.
The soldiers were immediately taken to FMC Gusau,few days after,Governor Yari and the Zamfara state Government officials visited him in FMC Gusau and offered to pay his medical bills and so he was transferred to a private hospital in Abuja..
We deeply and sincerely want to thank the Zamfara State Governor and the Zamfara State Government for coming in when the Army proved inefficient and neglective.But is it the Zamfara State Government's duty to take care of Military personnel injured in battle?
The Young Captain has undergone over 10 surgeries with very little progress. The injured officer has asked several times that his legs be amputated because of severe and unbearable pains..
We are left to wonder why the Defence Headquarters hasn't even sent a single representative to check on him,up till the time i write this,neither has any attempt been made to pay his bills or even fly him abroad for proper treatment by the Nigerian Army. We know very well this is something the Army can afford comfortably and effortlessly.
He needs urgent help, We call on the leadership of the Army to intervene at this point. After 2 months in the hospital and having undergone several surgeries,his legs are rottening,his entire body is depreciating, he is dying slowly, why will the Army turns a blind eye? How can this be done to an officer who left everything he loved,his comfort,his family to serve his country? How does this motivate anyone to join the Nigerian Military?
What is the officer's crime other than he fought terrorists so that we live? He stood in between us and the terrorists, He got this injury trying to protect us all. This is a man who will take a bullet for any of us. Is this how the Government and Army should pay him back? are they not aware,he has parents,siblings,relatives, friends,family and loved ones too? Don't they know,we feel pain too?
If our military officers are treated this way by the Army,upon getting injury from battle,how do we ever win the war against terrorism in this country?
He spent 10years serving in the Army and 7years in operation theatre,he should at least be appreciated by getting the best medical attention the Army can afford.
General Buratai I hope this gets to you and the President. Let Your conscience guide you to do the right thing for this young,brave, gallant officer.
Do not let his sacrifice for this country amount to nothing, he doesn't deserve this cruel treatment from the Army Leadership.
Finally,I make this passionate appeal to everyone who reads this,help us get this to Buratai by sharing and to the Commander in chief,let them intervene please'
How many Nigerian soldiers and civilians shall be killed by terrorists before Nigerians understand that this Buhari CABAL govt can't protect the lives and property of people in Nigeria?
Buhari is never a saint, mind you. Ignore that falsehood propaganda that Buhari is a saint.
A thief by the way who can create wealth for Nigeria is better as Nigeria's President, than a Saint dullard who makes Nigeria retrogress and toward disintegration.
Famousbabe: Just two days to the 2019 presidential election, 12 presidential candidates endorsed President Muhammadu Buhari.
President Buhari received in audience Members of Forum of Presidential Candidates and Political parties for Good Governance who endorsed him for Feb. 23rd Presidential Election on State House on 21st Feb 2019.
Chairman of the Forum, Shitu Mohammed Kabir, MON, of Advanced Peoples Democratic Alliance (APDA), said they decided to throw in their lots with President Buhari because of advances made in security, economy, fighting corruption, infrastructural development, agricultural revolution, and many others.

Hungry and irrelevant presidential candidates looking for State funds to chop.
It's only mugus who can endorse a Buhari and his CABAL to continue to steer Nigeria. Buhari who hardly understands what is happening around him again due to ill-health and old age.
It is clear why this Buhari govt thinks that propaganda can replace visible achievements: most of his supporters are mumus. The difference between PDP and APC is that PDP will do a little and use so much to publicise it while APC will not do at all and use so much to do propaganda.
Watch this video of how Buhari's lie of a completed dam project was exposed.
mercenary: Nigeria can never abandon the Niger Delta... You want her to die of hunger?... Of course we are the goose that lays the golden egg, You can argue with your keyboard
This drunk ugly duckling again
NO TRUE STANDARD GAUGE RAIL LINES IN THE NIGER DELTA REGIONS.
Ugly drunk ducking can't tell the truth about Buhari's govt which specialized in getting oil revenues from the Nigerdelta, but builds modern development infrastructures, including standard gauge rail lines in the north up to Niger Republic.
Below is a statement from the Nigerian Presidency signed by Spokesman, Femi Adesina;
"The Fourth Quarter 2018 Gross Domestic Product (GDP) results released recently by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) give lots of cause to cheer.
Below are salient points to note from the report, as the Muhammadu Buhari administration puts the Nigerian economy on firm, solid footing:
1. The economy has recorded continued progress since it emerged from recession in 2017. Current result shows a Real GDP growth of 2.38% compared to 1.81% in Q3 last year, representing the strongest growth since the economy slipped into recession in 2016.
2. For more than five decades, Nigeria has paid lip service to diversifying the economy, from sole dependence on oil. The latest result shows that economic growth has continued to be driven by the non-oil sector, which grew by 2.70% in Q4 2018, up from 2.32% in Q3 2018. It represents the strongest growth in the sector since Q4 2015.
3. The non-oil GDP growth was driven by Quarrying and Other Minerals, followed by Telecommunications, Agriculture, Manufacturing, and Construction. That is diversification in progress, real time, no matter what the naysayers may say.
4. While the non-oil sector actually drove GDP growth, the oil sector contracted with crude oil and gas GDP reducing by -1.62%. This shows that with good governance, focus, prudence and accountability, the life of the country need not depend on oil ad infinitum.
5. The NBS report further shows that Services GDP growth recorded its best performance in 11 quarters, growing by 2.90% compared to 2.64% in Q3 2018 and 0.10% in Q4 2017. Overall, while growth in the economy was moderated by the contraction in the oil sector, 39 out of 46 economic activities recorded positive growth in the quarter under review.
6. The improved GDP growth can be attributed to Government's continuous implementation of the policy initiatives in the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP), which has boosted the performance of the non-oil sector.
7. The growth in Q4 2018 GDP is consistent with the improvements in other macroeconomic indicators, including inflation, capital inflows, foreign trade, external reserves, amongst others.
8. Headline inflation has been trending downwards from 18.55% as at December 2016 to 15.37% in December 2017 and further to 11.44% in December 2018.
9. The total value of capital importation into Nigeria stood at $2,140 million in the fourth quarter of 2018. This translates to a full year capital inflow of $16,812 million compared to $12,228 million in 2017.
10. Although the economy is now growing, more still must be done to deepen its diversification and make it less vulnerable to external shocks. That is an unflinching commitment of the Muhammadu Buhari administration.
Those who do not see any good in something not initiated by them toil endlessly to hoodwink Nigerians into believing that nothing good is happening on the economic front. But facts are stubborn things. The more they try to deny the facts, the more they rudely stare at them in the face.
With the Buhari administration, economic Eldorado beckons. Nigeria is inexorably set for that Next Level.
Parada: Not in this life so long he is hell bent on selling NNPC to his friends or enemy I do not care. He should vie for presidency in Biafra or hell.
What a muguish campaign.
So Fulani Atiku is now a Biafran?
Most probably you are one most shophistiwretched who shall vote a Buhari who hardly understands what is happening around him again, because you believe that Buhari cabal shall hand power over to a Yoruba in 2023.
But you never gave a thought to what low Nigeria under Buhari cabal must have gone before 2023.
xelly: Those who want to Vote for Buhari because of Osinbajo should know that he is a nobody, Ganduje is greater than him.
New NADECO is waiting for those who believe that Buhari cabal shall hand power over to a Yoruba in 2023. Photocopy this and send to Tinubu and Osinbajo.
Create the long proposed 6th State in the Southeast zone, this classification no be reason for those people who created states.
Political Representation was the reason behind the back of their minds. North has it in abundance. The SE zone is most underrepresented at the federal level, denied federal allocations due to its five-States-only structure
Njaba/Anim state shall be more viable and more prosperous than lots of the states in Nigeria today.
Arewa soldiers proliferated states every nook and cranny of the former northern region to make Arewa persons win Nigeria presidential elections, to draw in more money to Arewa from federal allocations.
Land mass or population is never used as yardstick to determine where and how many new political units, like States or local government areas, can be created in any region of a country formed by diverse regions.
There should have been more States in the southern regions than in the northern region after Abacha created the last batch of states.
Zangazanga: A good man with less popularity. Wait for Atiku to take over and hand over democracy to you. As for Buhari, he can never hand over to you if you win. Rather he would send his boys to cause violence.
The best presidential candidate Nigeria may never have this year as president, due to the distorted and lopsided political structure of Nigeria created by Arewa loyal soldiers.
SaintLucia: if u don't know politics of Kano then you ask those that knows. Muhammad Abacha and Jafar had always been with Buhari since the time of CPC if not for one or two issues.
Buhari says he is fighting corruption, but Kano's government Stadium is still named Sani Abacha Stadium.
Buhari is deceiving only minions with his song of anti corruption.
AudiA4: And only animal and slowpoke will vote a party who ruled u for 16yrs and didn't not solve any social issues, NEPA sold, what happened, Airways sold, what happened,was I single refinery built in 16 yrs?was one single rail line built in 16yrs? Instead monies were being shared,amongst PDP members and u want everything destroyed by PDP in 16 yrs fixed in 4yrs,make Atiku and PDP come continue will looting abi,it's only a thief that will support a thief
Only a person without any sense of History can't understand that in 1983, Muhammadu Buhari ushered in a succession of kleptomaniac military dictators who plundered Nigeria dry;
military dictators who didn't even know that they were supposed to replenish ageing Power, Water, Transport, Telephone, etc social infrastructures;
,then handed over to civilians in PDP in 1999.
The civilians started from near zero to restore social infrastructures, until the same Muhammadu Buhari was invited by Tinubu to come over again in 2015, after Boko Haram demonized President Jonathan's govt.
APC then mobilized the best global propagandists who told the world that PDP people are most corrupt.
Buhari won in 2015 and took over petroleum ministry. Tinubu took over NIRS, Nigeria's second money spinner after petroleum.
Transparency international just fell short of stating that Buhari's govt is the most corrupt ever in Nigeria's history. Worse, Buhsri's corrupting practice of filling vital political posts with less qualified persons from his ethnoreligious group eats deepest into the fabrics of any country, more than monetary corruption. .Buhari's disobedience to court orders is worse than monetary corruption. The US ambassador to Nigeria once warned that non obedience to court orders is worse than monetary corruption.
freemanbubble: But seriously sha Buhari directives is funny o Snatch one ballot box and get one bullet in return That is the new electoral act promo in town.
And the same man single handedly snatch our democracy on gun point in 1983
Does Buhari understand again that he snatched hundreds of thousands of ballot boxes when he snatched Nigeria's democracy from the electorate in 1983?
These people ehnn!...instead of trying to remedy the disastrous and calamitous statement by the president by means of subtle damage control measures they're busy pointing fingers at pdp.
Abi PDP na APC nightmare ni..
Lol. APC is further speaking rubbish in attempts to whittle down President Buhari's heresy, hate and blood sucking speech.
Where is Lai Mohammed? Garba Shehu is a quota graduate. Shehu hardly ever got things in order.
ANSMEDIA: Coscharis in conjunction with Anambra State GOVT has developed a modern irrigation system that will enable the company plant and harvest rice all year round in Anambra.
Beautiful to see State govt building irrigation facilities for year round agric.
Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, has countered the latest warning given by the Nigerian military, wherein the army warned that it would deal ruthlessly with anybody who dares snatch ballot boxes during coming Saturday’s general election. ADVERTISING Atiku Police arrest 5 fake army officers escorting politician in Imo The army’s warning is coming barely 24 hours after President Muhammadu Buhari had threatened that any party thug caught trying to snatch ballot boxes during election would pay with his or her life. Buhari had warned saying, “I have briefed the law enforcement agencies and the military. They have identified the hot spots, flash points. “They should be prepared to move. We have made as much arrangement as possible and resources provided as much as the country can afford. “Anybody who decides to snatch ballot boxes or lead thugs to disturb it, maybe this is the last lawful action you will take. “I really gave the military and the police (order) to be ruthless. We are not going to be blamed that we want to rig election. I want Nigerians to be respected. Let them vote whoever they want across the parties. “I am going to warn anybody who thinks he has enough influence in his locality to lead a body of thugs or to disturb the voting system, he will do it at the expense of his own life.” Sequel to the threat by the President, the army, on Tuesday, issued its own warning that it would deal ruthlessly with anybody caught disrupting the election. The Deputy Director, Army Public Relations, Colonel, AMINU ILIYASU, had, via a statement, warned that the military would not show mercy to any political thug caught causing confusion or snatching ballot boxes on the day of election. The army’s statement partly read, “…authorities of 6 Division NA wish to unequivocally state that anyone found to be disrupting the electoral process under any guise will be decisively dealt with in accordance with the laws no matter how highly placed he or she is.” But countering the Nigerian army’s stance, the former Vice President and PDP’s presidential candidate in the forth-coming election, Atiku Abubakar faulted the army saying ‘boot and gun’ has no business in the country’s election. Atiku, however, told the army that its role is to protect the territorial integrity of the country. Atiku gave the statement on Tuesday during the party’s NEC meeting in Abuja. Atiku who reiterated his earlier position that his political ambition is not worth the blood of any Nigerian, however urged President Buhari to reverse his death threat order on ballot box snatchers and make the same commitment of no blood-letting during elections like he(Atiku) has promised. He reminded the army that its role is not in the conduct of elections but to protect the territorial integrity of the country. According to Atiku, “You will recall that during the Peace Accord process, I stated in clear terms, quoting form former president Jonathan Goodluck, that my ambition is not worth the blood of any Nigerian. “That man is a great man. “Today I call on President Buhari to make that same commitment to the people whose mandate he holds, while also urging all security agencies to uphold our Constitution with an understanding that voting is a civil activity and civic responsibility. “The Nigerian military is constitutionally responsible for protecting our territorial integrity and national borders and has no role to play in the conduct of elections.”
gypsey: what a stupid question, Did buhari kill Anyone personally? He may be tired of buhari, but i am Not.
Sai baba! Buhari!
Sai Baba,? Even if most people in Nigeria, especially the north, are getting killed gradually, either by herdsmen or by Boko Haram;
because of your Baba's religious zealotry combined with his incompetence in economic management of Nigeria?
One wonders what persons like you think that presiding over a complex country like Nigeria is.
Look, any day Oyinbos who hold Nigeria one remove their eyes from Nigeria, even for one minute, people like you shall have their own different country separate from normal human beings.
Which honest leader in the world would before paying handsome ransom money to terrorists not agree with the terrorists for release of all the hostages?
Leah remains a victim of Buhsri's extreme religious beliefs.
Yet some people in London would have the heart to demonstrate for President Buhari's reelection.
Boko Haram fights for a country to be ruled with Islamic Sharia Criminal laws.
In 2001, Muhammadu Buhari told a large crowd of Muslim faithfuls that he would not stop until Islamic Sharia Criminal laws are used all over Nigeria.
Nigeria's constitution did not permit Islamic Sharia Criminal laws in any part of Nigeria.
Trader money was mere vote buying technique of Pressure Buhari through his VP. The NASS and the Judiciary were crippled by Buhari cabal. If not, Trader Money was an unconstitutional and corrupt practice which could have led to the impeachment of President Buhari.
