DeLaRue: The country is just in chaos.
A military personnel should not in any way be out blocking a minister from carrying out his duties.
Nigeria is NOT Pakistan.
In the scheme of things, the military is beneath the Executive arm under the constitution and a Minister is senior to even the Chief of Defense staff.
So, who is the army guy's boss that sent him to prevent a Minister of the Federal Republic from performing his lawful duties 
In a serious country, the military senior that sent the guy to do the hatchet job will be investigated and demoted. But not in Nigeria. No wonder we have attempted coups. We should look for your social study and government teacher and sue them both to court. |

Jagabanfromcali: This bura na full , a jnr officer undermining the minister of the republic is serious offense against the government and shud be decommissioned right away What rank does the Minister of the federation have? Lol. How do you people even make it past secondary schools? I thought I won't comment on this issue, but reading comments from folks like this turn my stomach. Under which chain of command does Wike fall, that he should order a soldier? |

ALTERNATEID: Resorting to illegal self help is not how to protect yourself. You protect yourself using legal avenues. The land in question will be revoked and there is absolutely nothing the former CNS will do about it. You are just here running mouth and foaming everywhere. When you retire ceremoniously as a Chief of Naval staff, you retain things like you service rifle, all your service uniforms. In addition, officers of different ranks are assigned to you to protect you, your families and your properties for the rest of your life. Those soldiers you saw in the video were doing a legal duty as long as they are attached to the former CNS. Some things are just above you. No federal minister can order or command a soldier on legal duty or military in general aside the one who gave the first order, or a higher rank officer than the one who gave the first order, or the President who is the C in C. Even the Vice president of the country would not have been able to order the soldiers out of that property yesterday if he had gone there himself. Learn before you embarrass yourself publicly. |

ALTERNATEID: You can be rest assured that bulldozer will pull down that structure and the former CNS will either go home to cry or go to court. This is a battle he can’t win. El-Rufai as FCT minister ordered the demolition of the house of the headquarters of Ministry of works and even the personal house of the then PDP national chairman. So, who is a former CNS that thinks he’s above the law? Why didn't he force his way in yesterday? I was expecting that after he spoke to the Chief of Defence Staff, they would order them off the site. If you watch video, you would see that the Lieutenant also spoke to the same person using Wike's phone. Why didn't the soldiers vacate the property after call? Why was it wike who left instead. I pity bulldozers and demolition team that will be deployed there. If there was a wrong side in the yesterday's incidence, it definitely has to be Wike. If you want to fight for him, go to the said site and slap the soldiers on guard there. You're comparing former Housing minister and PDP chairman to a 3 star General 🌟 🌟 🌟. Maybe you'll find out eventually. |

bixton: What is the military order in this instance?
To safeguard land, I presume!!!!!! Whether it is to safeguard land or a pair of slippers, the job is the job, and an order is an order. As long as that property belong to a former CNS, who is also a 3 star General, it is a legal duty bro. However, such duty ceases to be legal the day he dies. |

bixton: The parcel of land the military personnel is guarding is that now a responsibility of that officer under the Nigerian law , is that subject to military law? Bro, even if it is a pair of slippers, as long as the order is from a superior officer, he cannot question the order. That is how powerful they are. |

Imagine the clowns that cannot face Boko Haram wants to be pushing the Minister around in a democratic dispensation.
I don't like Wike at all but a Captain should never speak to a Director in FCTA, let alone a Minister that way. Rubbish country.
Was it ever on record that the so-called ex CNS recorded any success against Boko Haram during his time in office? If not for cheap data, someone like you should not be putting mouth in public affairs. Its far above you. |

bixton: What orders and from which superior!!!!!!
In a civilized country the police go arrest that military personnel irrespective of whose order he is standing on......
We just like standing on the wrong side of things and taking sides unnecessarily on abnormal things. Stop capping rubbish. All these una beer parlour claims Soldiers are subject to military law, only military authorities (through the Provost Marshal or superior officers) have the direct power to arrest and discipline them for offences, especially those committed in the line of duty. You even mentioned civilised countries like you have ever left Nigeria. The US Police Department whether state or federal cannot just arrest a soldier in active service without the cooperation of his commanding post. It can only happen if he is caught committing a a civilian crime off duty and without uniform even at that, his commanding post must be alerted immediately for their cooperation. These are contained in military law enforcement such as: U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Division (CID), Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS), Air Force Office of Special Investigations (OSI) Oya make another claim. |

Dogalmighty17: Let's address this matter without any form of sentiments. 1. Why were Navy personnel sent to guard a property that doesn't belong to the government? 2. The land supposedly belongs to a retired navy officer who's service ended during Buhari's tenure. What authority does he have to request for active duty officers to secure property for him? 3. The FCDA had first sent their staff to that property seeing that the documents supposedly authorising the sale to the owner weren't duly signed by the appropriate commissioner in charge. Why were they stopped from carrying out their lawful duty? 4. The FCT minister serves at the behest of the president. Why was he impeded from carrying out his lawful assignment? 5. It must be asked at this point, where do the loyalties of the navy lie? With the president? If so, how was a retired navy officer able to give instruction to a serving officer to deploy armed personnel to guard his property?
I am no means a Wike apologist. I think he is too crude and lacks tact but at a time when a rumoured coup was supposedly nipped in the bud, the Navy should not be seen to be answering to the demands of a retired official. Who is it that received that order and acted on it? Was this order carried out with the knowledge of the Chief of naval staff? If yes, that's condemnable. If no, then it calls into question his fitness for the job.
Heads need to roll for this. Wike needs to be sacked as well. He could have handled the matter better instead of embarrassing the president. Most of your questions were asked out of sheer ignorance, but that's fine. However, the questions are not devoid of sentiments. For information sake, only the Chief in Command can give order to counter the order given by a most senior officer. Even the vice president cannot try it unless sworn in to take the place of the C in C in a case of his absence. The naval officer was acting under a command, Wike should have contacted the one who gave him the order. He himself cannot order the soldier off that property. Only the one who gave the order in the 1st place, the Chief of staff, or the president can order him out of that property. Lastly, the loyalty of any soldiers lies with NOT the presidency, but to the service of his country, and the president himself who is the GCON. The Chief in Command role of this position cannot be delegated. Not even to the VP. The FCT minister like other ministers is just an office holder under the president's cabinet. He cannot give or counter a military order. |

Heads need to roll for this. Wike needs to be sacked as well. He could have handled the matter better instead of embarrassing the president. To answer your question 1 nd 2, the property belongs to a 3 star General who retired as a naval chief. Q2, upon retirement, a certain number of officers of different ranks and other staff are assigned to him until his death. What he does with the officers can only be answered by him alone. As a 3 star general, even in retirement, he remains a general and must be accorded the respect. The Armed Forces Act (Cap A20 LFN 2004) and established military traditions in Nigeria support this claim. |

12345baba: L who told u army senior police? Police is the oldest organization. Police fiT arrest army.. na Nigeria wey done spoil make us dey see police finish. You are very wrong sir/maThe Nigerian Police Force (NPF) and the Nigerian Armed Forces (Army, Navy, Air Force) operate under different laws and chains of command: The Police are governed by the Police Act (2020) and fall under the Ministry of Police Affairs. Soldiers are governed by the Armed Forces Act and fall under the Ministry of Defence. As such, officers of the NPF cannot arrest a soldier who is still in active service because soldiers are subject to military law, only military authorities (through the Provost Marshal or superior officers) have the direct power to arrest and discipline them for offences, especially those committed in the line of duty. You see that thought of a police officer can arrest a soldier, kill it!! |

I gave it to a phone repairer in Ikeja after every attempt to make it work failed. The first time this happened, the guy opened the back glass and did one or before the phone came back on. He's been trying the same thing ever since, but the phone has refused to load past that MI page . The rubber band was used to hold the back glass in place so it doesn't fall of. |
