2023: I'll Retire All Army Generals Making Money On Fight Against Terrorism, They’re Like Boy Scouts, Sowore Vows

Human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore has said that he will retire all serving Generals who have turned the fight against terrorism into a cash cow in the Nigerian Army and other Armed Forces on retirement if he becomes the President of Nigeria come 2023.

Sowore, who is also the National Chairman of African Action Congress (AAC), revealed this on Tuesday in Abuja during his formal declaration to contest for President in the forthcoming general elections.


He said he would show the so-called Army Generals the way out, adding that they were not fit to be called Generals but Boy Scouts.

He said some of them have turned the fight against terrorism and banditry into a cash cow, thereby making the war difficult for the soldiers at the frontline to win.

He appealed to the security agents across the country to be optimistic and committed while promising to improve their condition of service when he becomes the President.

Sowore said, "I cannot end this without talking about our men and women in the Armed Forces. Sometimes we don't like them. Maybe if I get out of here now, the policemen will come and pick me up again and arrest me.

"Part of the problem they have is that they are also being dehumanised by the condition of service. Our soldiers are fighting with bare hands against terrorists who have unlimited access to weapons and ammunition.

"The highest-paid soldier is paid N56,000 thereabouts and is expected to die for the country.

“Immediately we come into the office we will look into the condition of service. As I have said before and I will repeat here, anybody that is a General that participated in this useless war against terrorists is going to be retired. I will fire all the Generals.

“You cannot be called Generals; these are Boy Scouts. Let them go and rest."

How I wish Nigerians could summon the courage to vote in a young, vibrant, and pragmatic president!!! Them carry old cargoes swear for una?

Ok

NO Problem

Good one but because of this, they won't allow you win even if its just you alone

Unfortunately, this is Nigeria that is not ready for the change ee clamour for... Where money still wins election

Retire is not a deterrent...

Disgrace

Confiscate

And eliminate by the cheapest means of execution know to the army.

A warm piece of lead to the head. Boom

More reasons they don't want him there. Contact me for thesis and dissertation writing. I submit with a Turnitin report.

Sowore sounds like someone who will introduce sweeping reforms if elected, but every party needs a structure and lots of money to win elections in Nigeria - something that Sowore doesn't have.

You're right.

There are financial implications retiring serving generals. The money no be here o.

Hmmmm

You don't reveal your hand till you are in a strong position. No need to create enemies for yourself before you even contest.
A broad base of acceptance is needed to become president, so shooting from the hip before time isn't advisable in my opinion.

Ok

Sowore should not in any way become the president of Nigeria

He is better of being an activist and has accomplished a lot in that role

He was among the people that brought Bubu the calamity to us packaging him as a saint

I know that what he is saying is right but he should support whoever takes over from Buhari to implement those things

We know that without getting rid of those army generals, that the war against terrorism/terrorists will never be won because they are being backed up by influential individuals who are in active politics

We are looking forward to seeing great Nigeria of our dreams.

Sowore Dem go carry you again o

Please let's all vote Sowore for president

Rest
This niggar is a noisy bastard...
No one can fight against this government....

I’m as much as I don’t like sowore’s style, he’s right on this. All serving general should retire; they’re just as useless as the P in psychology. Nah only convoy den sabi arrange, they’re not fit to preside over the present security issues. But if I were Sowore, I wouldn’t say this now.

Hard to fight those cabals

Aside age difference, Sowore is not different from the foolish old men.

Exactly. That's how tg game is played

So basically... Nigerians should forget progress!!!

Noted! Next!!!

All the best

This guy mumu no be small. Must you say it out? That’s not the way you play Nigerian politics

Sowore had been the most consistent activist in this country for decades. He deserves all the respect he gets..
