Masterstroke4: Shoot On Sight, Wait For No Order—New Defence Minister Charges Troops
The newly appointed Minister of Defence, General Christopher Musa (rtd), has ordered troops to engage armed bandits immediately on sight without waiting for further directives.
Musa, during his Senate screening on Wednesday, said this instruction was essential for frontline protection and for restoring confidence in the country’s security efforts.
Musa issued the directive while responding to lawmakers’ concerns about command delays during encounters with insurgents.
He explained that military personnel automatically assume the mandate to kill armed criminals once deployed to conflict zones.
According to him, troops must rely on their training and instincts to protect themselves, their colleagues, and the communities under their watch.
He said, “And for the troop, every personnel member that is deployed knows why they’re deployed. You are to engage any criminal or any bandit that is armed and about to kill you. You don’t have to wait.
“Somebody’s aiming to shoot at you, you’re waiting for orders, from who? Once you are deployed, you automatically have that responsibility.”
Musa added that troops cannot claim they are awaiting authorisation when confronting imminent danger.
He continued, “Your colleague is to be shot and you know, there is no other way of stopping it, other than to kill the person. You are to secure the community or property you are protecting, and this they all know.
“So if any member of the armed forces deployed anywhere tells you that he’s waiting for an order, he is lying and he’s only a coward.
“There is nothing like he’s waiting for any order. The order is automatic. He’s briefed before he’s deployed. And I think that it is very important that we be able to bridge that gap.”
Musa also disclosed that the defence ministry plans to withdraw soldiers from routine checkpoints and redeploy them to active conflict zones.
He said the Nigeria Police Force and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps would take over checkpoint operations, allowing soldiers to confront insurgents in difficult terrain.
He stated, “What we want to do is withdraw all personnel and military men from all checkpoints and let the police and civil defence handle those aspects.
“These will enable the military men to go into the bushes and take out these criminals, wherever they are as it’s important.
“Farmers must be able to go back to their farms… If people can’t eat, you can imagine what will happen.”
Musa stressed the need for continuous collaboration between security agencies to secure food-producing communities and restore agricultural activities disrupted by violence.
Addressing rising concerns around mass killings across regions, Musa described the situation as one that affects every Nigerian.
He said, “People are killed, people are dying. That’s why it’s important, that we must come together and it is when we allow them to have gaps that they penetrate.
“They don’t care who they kill. A bunch of evil people that are on drugs… no Nigerians must be killed for whatever reason.”
On military recruitment, Musa said the ministry is strengthening background checks to prevent sabotage and ensure that only committed applicants are enlisted.
He observed that some applicants avoid postings to conflict areas, while some states contribute fewer recruits to the national pool.
He stated, “On the issue of saboteurs normally we recruit from the society. Recruitments are going to be thorough which brings us back to the use of a database.
“A lot of people now because there is war, even in the military you find some people not willing to go to where there are conflicts.
“Again, we have observed some states, regions that don’t enrol. Currently, we have over 70,000 applying to join, however, we have a way of balancing it so Nigerians can participate.”
Musa acknowledged the high expectations attached to his appointment and said he intends to deliver on national security obligations.
In his words, “I am also feeling the heat. I know that I cannot afford to fail myself, fail my nation, fail my family.”
The minister proposed engaging retired military personnel to support national security structures, noting that their decades of experience should not be wasted.
He said, “Some retirees have over 40 years of experience. They are very brilliant and committed, Let us utilize them.”
Musa concluded by attributing the persistence of terrorism and banditry to years of neglected security gaps, including weak coordination with communities and government structures.
He assured Nigerians and lawmakers that his leadership will prioritise closing these gaps to improve national safety. All na washy washy na today? |

Bobloco: Calls For Jonathan’s Resignation Amid Insecurity Were Legitimate Then, Situation Different Now –Tinubu Presidency
Speaking during an interview on Channels Television, Mr. Daniel Bwala, Special Adviser to the President on Policy Communications, acknowledged the government’s concern over the wave of kidnappings but stressed that the administration remains firmly in control.
The Presidency on Wednesday dismissed renewed calls for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to resign over the recent surge in kidnappings and insecurity across Nigeria, insisting that the current security challenges differ significantly from those faced during the Goodluck Jonathan administration.
Speaking during an interview on Channels Television, Mr. Daniel Bwala, Special Adviser to the President on Policy Communications, acknowledged the government’s concern over the wave of kidnappings but stressed that the administration remains firmly in control.
“The government is concerned, not only about perception but the reality Nigerians are facing. It is a trying period,” Bwala said, adding that insecurity in Nigeria often follows predictable patterns and that large ungoverned spaces, particularly in the North, create opportunities for criminals.
He defended the federal government’s handling of recent abductions, reiterating a zero-tolerance policy on paying ransom and dismissing claims that the government negotiated with kidnappers as “classic propaganda” by terrorists.
On the issue of calls for President Tinubu’s resignation, Bwala said: “People have the right to express themselves. But constitutionally, calling for resignation is not the same as initiating the process. I have not personally heard any credible call for resignation.”
Comparing the current administration to the Jonathan era, he added, “At the time, the Jonathan administration seemed to lack solutions and was even in denial about certain incidents. So yes, in that context, calls for resignation were legitimate. Today, the situations differ.”
Bwala highlighted what he described as achievements under the Tinubu administration, claiming prison breaks and daylight kidnappings in Abuja, common before, have stopped and that the leaders of terrorist group Ansaru were recently arrested, earning commendation from the United States.
He also noted that the Safe Schools Initiative has been launched, consolidating isolated schools into secure mega-schools; and recruitment into the police and military has been expanded.
Bwala added that VIP police escorts are being recalled and Department of State Services (DSS) and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) redeployed strategically.
“We cannot promise zero incidents. Nigeria’s borders are porous, and our security personnel are limited. But the government is taking preventive and responsive measures,” he said. Fear APC and their gimmicks. The truth remains that, what Nigerians are witnessing now in terms of insecurity is far worse than what they witnessed during GEJ tenure. During GEJ tenure, insecurity was only in few states such as Abuja, Bornu and yobe states. Unlike this damned tinibu administration that insecurity is now nationwide with full scale. |

Af0nja2: I have been wondering.
Would majority of those Igbos supporting Nnamdi Kanu have done so if every citizens are made to live in their regions?
Many of those supporting this court-declared international terrorist are living and earning their livelihood outside Igboland. Many are in Lagos while others are outside the shores of the country. Would they have been shouting hosanna if they are victims of the carnage and atrocities of this self-proclaimed Biafra Lord?
Apart from Orji Uzor Kanu and some bold ones among them, are most of their leaders not supporting NK for political reasons?
Would they have been bold enough to pitch their tent with him, if there are no peaceful regions like the South West to run to? Bad government and bad leaders like tinibu gave birth to kanu's agitation. |
Politics › Re: Yoruba group, call onTinubu to remove Kwara from northern states by Mbanda(m): 5:30pm On Dec 03, 2025 |
babydioku: A Yoruba socio-cultural group, Ìgbìnmó Májékóbájé Ilé-Yorùbá, has called on President Bola Tinubu to remove Kwara State and Kogi West from the classification of “northern states,” insisting that the areas are historically and linguistically Yoruba. In a statement signed by its Convener, Olusola Badero, and Home Director, Princess Balogun, the group stressed that Kwara South, Kwara Central, and Kogi West are predominantly Yoruba-speaking with deep cultural and ancestral ties to the Yoruba nation. The union argued that labeling the regions as “northern” undermines Yoruba identity and subjects the people to political and cultural marginalisation. Raising alarm over escalating insecurity, the group alleged that Fulani herders, disguised as cattle rearers, have been responsible for killings, kidnappings, and land grabs. According to the statement, more than 10 Yoruba vigilantes and forest guards were killed in Kwara South on Sunday in attacks allegedly carried out by herders. The group accused the federal government of arming these individuals. “It is disheartening that Miyetti Allah members, implicated in attacks on our people, are the same individuals given AK-47 rifles to ‘protect’ us. How can murderers be assigned as protectors? It is nothing short of betrayal,” the statement read. The Yoruba Union warned that President Tinubu risked being judged harshly by history if he failed to act, urging him to immediately correct what they described as a “historic anomaly” by reclassifying Kwara and Kogi West. They also demanded the withdrawal of the so-called “Bororos” deployed to Kwara South, while calling for stronger protection of Yoruba lives and property. Beyond government action, the group appealed to Yoruba communities at home and abroad to provide support for local vigilantes and extended condolences to the families of those killed in recent attacks, describing them as heroes of the Yoruba cause. “This is not just a call for reclassification but a demand for survival,” the group declared, insisting that Yoruba-speaking regions should not be subsumed under a “fraudulent northern identity.” A yorobah group is calling for the inclusion of a state that is already in the north, to be added to yorobah states. And the thread is still in page one since. Had it been this thread is about an Igbo group calling on tinibu for an inclusion of a state from SS to SE by now, this thread go don reach page 15 that is to tell that the yorobahs are the ones looking for SE trouble. |
Politics › Re: Again,Tinubu Is Complicit To Christian Genocide In Nigeria: U.S Congress by Mbanda(m): 5:14pm On Dec 03, 2025 |
CyynthiaKiss: United States lawmaker representing Florida’s 6th congressional district, Randy Fine, has joined a growing list of members of Congress supporting a resolution calling for stronger U.S. action in response to worsening religious-related violence in Nigeria.
In a statement shared on X handle on Wednesday, the congressman expressed alarm over continued attacks by extremist groups in parts of Nigeria, particularly in communities with significant Christian populations.
He criticised what he described as insufficient action by Nigerian authorities.
“The ongoing slaughter of innocent Christians by Muslim terrorists in Nigeria is appalling,” he said. “The Nigerian government’s silence is deafening.”
The congressman announced he has signed onto a resolution sponsored by Rep. Chris Smith that seeks to codify a U.S. executive order designating Nigeria as a “country of particular concern” over religious freedom violations.
The proposed measure urges the U.S. government to intensify diplomatic pressure and expand monitoring of attacks attributed to extremist organisations.
Hex
The lawmaker further alleged that failure by Nigerian authorities to adequately protect vulnerable communities has contributed to deteriorating security conditions.
"Their complicity in the genocide of thousands of Christians must stop, and we must take action to fully condemn this now,” he said.
Nigeria has faced years of violence linked to armed groups, including Boko Haram, Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), and various militia factions.
Analysts note that the conflict is driven by a mix of terrorism, banditry, resource disputes, and intercommunal tensions, with both Christian and Muslim civilians among the victims.
The Nigerian government has repeatedly rejected claims of religious persecution and says it is working to combat terrorism and strengthen security across affected states.
The congressman, who described himself as a “husband and father proudly serving Florida’s 6th congressional district,” said he hopes the resolution will spur bipartisan action on Capitol Hill and renewed global attention on the crisis.
The measure is expected to receive further debate as lawmakers continue to assess U.S. foreign policy priorities regarding human rights and security in West

Most Anambra big boys hates him with passion. If you see any Anambrarian supporting kanu, Check well, he is either a riff raff , he has no business in the East or he is doing eye service.
As for those that wants kanu s release, I have said this before , even before he was sentenced and I will still say it again,
ipob members go and beg mama miracle to forgive Kanu with her whole heart , that's if she is still alive . Tender a public apology and send Abaribe and two others to go and beg wike, if not, take it from a true seer , kanu will never be released..even if they plan to release him, something will happen and he will be incarcerated and if they try to appeal it without doing all these, he will be given a death sentence.
