[s]So, what should the soldier have done?

Soldiers are human beings, trained to fight.

When we say fight, we don't mean street fighting, but tactical fighting. Controlled fighting.

Moreover, the soldier may be unarmed. You expect him to go and confront armed robbers?[/s]

common shut up there!!

Shut up there too!

Soldiers are not zombies as popularized by Baba Fela.

They have brains too.

You don't go out fighting when you are clearly outnumbered.

They are waiting for Buhari to give them order before they strike

Revolution2022:
Those banks all have up to 4 mopol Manning each bank,Where were they during the robbery?The police IG charge the bank #50k for 2weeks for each mopol to guard the bank.For them to engage robbers they were nowhere to be found.
Na yahoo boys and innocent people there should dey raise.

The shock I got when I learnt how heavily these banks are charged by the police in Edo state compared to Lagos. The banks don't get VFM as no Mopol could challenge them on even 1 bank but they police will be credited by those banks this month.

.But if dem see unarmed civilians now dem go start to de flex their muscle.. We have some good soldiers, but some deserve make them shoot dem for skull.

They laid AMBUSH, waiting for them to trespass.
Do you expect them to confront them face2face

In developed countries such can't happen na to death. Because even if the run there are helicopters following them every where but here one can't see such instead the helicopter is used to carry governor and his cronies

have u been to developed countries before?

Am just wondering what Enugu state will be like with this ban on Keke and mini bus kia ugwuanyi na another zombie

Who die for bubu just die for nuthing

Na only for civilian dem get power.

Shame to the cut and join security men of nigeria.

That is camouflage

Nigerian security agencies are always very strong and active in South East Nigeria. If this robbery had happened in the East, Army, Police, DSS would have killed 20 civilians suspected as helping the robbers escape and while arresting 50 others that match the description of the robbers.

The man has family too, and nobody wan die for buhari again.

They should also know that civilians have families too

Most guys that claim to be yahoo boys are actually robbers

Common guys , this soldiers are just taking position and waiting oders from their captains

Even the most trained foreign soldier will always take cover when clearly outnumbered; while they wait for backup.

Excuse me, do you know this man?

He is a British SAS operative who stormed a building where several AL Shabab militants were shooting Christians at will single handedly and took out several of them before the Kenyan army arrived.

We know the brave ones and the chicken-hearted soldiers who cannot defeat Boko Haram in 13 years of conflict.

This mod is a kid.

Did you expect a single soldier to engage them?

There is what is taught in the military school. That’s tactics. You just can’t go and attack the enemy without coordination and backup else you are just going to the slaughter and mind you they are not going to face anyhow men but men ready to kill and die because of the aftermath so I don’t see the army guy hiding as being a coward but following the tenets of his profession and would be defaulted if he after everything he can’t give a clue on how to catch the culprits .



Anyway, Agriculture is life.

But the best trained foreign soldiers dont intimidate civilians.. so, dont compare the 2..

OK, I spot a rifle.

Still, you can't expect one soldier to go and confront many armed robbers? That would be suicidal. Perhaps, you watch too many American action films. But films are different from reality.

Nigerian soldiers are not trained anything.
They are like Nigerian police.

But they can attack defenseless youths in the east? Smh

Grow up! This is Nigeria not a fictional British adventure

Banks need to upgrade their infrastructure and build impregnable fortresses at a cost that may require the closing of some branches, but will certainly save lives.

If nal you u go fight?

he has family but when he sees unarmed civilians he will forget that family exist? And start acting like animal. He has gun the robbers has guns too so why is he scared of his equals?

WE STAND AGAINST WAR!
LET PEACE REIGN PLS
