I know there is more to what the military is claiming.

Forumites:
they said the soldiers attacked them two times in two days before the retaliation.

maybe the army supported the other communities

What is there to obey sple command now see where their disobedience has landed them ...
The country has worsen to an extent people are not longer respect who the supposed to respect, obey who they supposed to obey ..They wanted to used the same hand they do play with police to play with army ...

Why are some people twisting the story to exonerate terrorist Nigerian army that is well known for brutalizing unarmed civilians?


They said soldiers came to make peace, probably someone from the other community having crises with Okuama have a close relationship with the army so he called the army who should have left after meeting with the community leaders but because they are bias, they wanted to arrest the Okuama community leaders and in the process the community youths tried to stop them from taking their leaders away, knowing how brutal and unfriendly Nigerian soldiers are, they must have felt insulted as the community youths stopped them from taking away the community leaders and probably shot some of the outspoken youths which led to pandemium and probably more shooting.


Maybe one of the community youths who have a brother in one militant group called to alert his brother of how soldiers shot and killed their people and they probably mobilized and ambushed the soldiers as they were leaving the community.


This must be what played out.


Nigerian army are not disciplined neither do they treat unarmed civilians like humans, this is well known

Exactly.

It's just sad reading a lot of comments supporting these killings.

They conveniently overlook the double standard.

Those who killed the soldiers must be fished out and punished, even executed if necessary. However, killing unarmed citizens is a no.

Immediately the news of the soldiers' killing broke, we all knew the entire community was done for and now that's played out with fellow Nigerians supporting it just because they see these people not as Nigerians but as enemies.

It's pathetic

Well, all those supporting the killings can continue but when it's your turn, don't expect anyone to stand for you.

AustineE1:
A TALE OF TWO CITIES

*Terrorists kill 25 soldiers in Niger State.*

*Please let’s Negotiate With Them..*

*Youth Kill 16 soldiers in Delta State.*

*LEVEL THE VILLAGE IMMEDIATELY..*

I dont think any right thinking Nigeria will support the killing of our soldiers,they perpetrators should be made to face the law,the military must apply internationally accepted military rules of engagement in doing this and not through crude brutality against the same people you are meant to protect in the first place.

FuckOsuPigs:


This is not clear. What retaliation? Soldiers or the youths who killed the 17 soldiers?

The event being reported happened after the soldiers were killed?

Happened before retaliation and killing of the soldiers. They came for peace talk as a result of clash between the communities and probably wanted to talk to leaders of both communities at their base which is normal but their refusal confirmed to soldiers that they re violent n culprit.

In the face of AK 47 you want to do android? Your service is needed there sir

This story is very hard to believe. This is not that I trusted Nigeria Soldiers ooo... but I still find it hard to believe this story

Caramia2020:
Two wrongs don't make a right, going for a peaceful talk n demanding for to take the chairman away is a wrong move. It's like the military personnel are hired to come n oppress the community but they were unlucky. This is an example of pushing the goat to the wall, it will eventually harm u. They acted like demi god but they were disappointed by the attack, they were killed for being bias.

that's my suggestion too, I think they were bias

How come there are no proofs
No pictures
Of this massacre.
I don’t understand

Talking about yoruba and hausafulani soldiers. Are you saying there are no south south soldiers among them?

Tranquillity360:
The same thing Yoruba and Hausafulanis soldiers did to Asaba people south south during Nigeria and Biafra war.


Made Asaba people to all come to support Nigeria soldiers, which they gathered them one place, then separated children and women.

Then open fire on the men killing hundreds.



Nigeria soldiers are evil from day one.
They did the Same to other south south communities, some they disguise like Biafra soldiers and attacked them to force them to start hating Biafra they are fighting together with.

Nigeria only learn evil from their British Master but don't learn the good ones they do for their own citizens.

Wereh. Soldiers dey shoot, you wan take pictures?

Naahhh....the community didn't agree to peace talk process by the military. Why refusal to go with ur leaders if no skeleton in ur cupboard. They might plan to talk to leaders of both communities at their based which can't be done at any of the communities

Buccalcavity2:
Take all the local chiefs, kings and LG chairman away. They'll produce the assailants. You are on monthly subvention to prevent a situation like this if you were a king!

The will produce the assailants as police officers ABI?

Sincerely speaking most of you talk like babies in NIGERIA.

I wonder why you pay the security forces in that your country? Maybe to sleep and not to investigate over issues like this.

Baba don't say what you don't know. Nigeria soldiers are capable. They can do what they accused them of.

owiko:
This story account sounds like a poorly packaged lie to justify the initial killing of the military personnels.
Application of logic in handling the situation from the get go, would have saved lots of lives. May peace find it's way back to the community.

They opened fire and you're still here yarning nonsense. People that were trained to kill. Be playing.

sukkot:
they are not pussy cats in the north. They are just as bold. It’s just that in Islam you are not allowed to kill another Muslim. You can only kill infidels. So they view the people in the south as infidels so it’s a divine permission for them to be trigger happy in the south

The EXACT fact.👍

RELIGION.😟

Dats why our Hausa/FULANI dominated Nigerian Army Excitedly Kill and Embarrass SS and SE Pple but love to protect their Northern brothers.

You enter a Community and wants to forcefully Drag out their Traditional ruler.
will they treat a Northern Emir in such Manner?😒

The Day the Army will Invade a Y0ruba Community and Kill pple,
Dats how some Y0rubas muslims will support them against their Tribesmen.😕

Arabian nite 😴 🥱 story.Imagine this useless, dumb lies . U gathered in a hall and Military opened 🔥 and killed 20 ? B4 now,pictures go don flood everywhere. Maybe the dead disappeared ?.U ambushed Military personnel and killed 16 and now telling story

adioolayi:
Where are the bodies of the people the soldiers first killed

Why were the community silent about the killings the soldiers commited during the town hall meeting

If truly the soldiers killed more than 20 people in the hall....the news should be out before the killings of the soldiers by the community


Why is the news all about the soldiers that were killed afterwards

The stories get as e be

Looks like both the military, youth and town leaders are hiding something which they don't want the world to know...

Something trigger the fighting and killing between the civilian and youth...

This matter need proper investigation

cococandy:
You believe everything the oppressor tells you?

The same lie isreal told about giving them ample time to leave troubled areas is the same lie Nigerian army will make up when it tries to find a justification for the killings.

After giving them “ample time” to leave, they still seek them out in the hospitals to bomb them, and go to their shelters to kill them.

Even in the face of your own oppression you can’t see the humanity of others.

Can u just locate your kind, since you have decided to be very unreasonable. I pretty do not have time to dignify nitwits.

Danniedpastor:


You don't have sense.?At a time when you should be scampering for safety,you want to start making videos. Do you even that Okwama is a village?

They alleged the soldiers left and after sometime, came back with reinforcements. It was more than enough time to get damning evidences. They story no add up. It seems so after thought story.

Forumites:
they said the soldiers attacked them two times in two days before the retaliation.

Wait a minute, the solders attacked them twice? There was no reported case of solders attacking communities in the media. No picture or video evidence even in this age of social media? We only heard of killings when the solders were massacred. If they talk of attack after the killing of solders I will believe the story.

the army is not going to invade Yoruba communities because Yoruba does not exhibit maniacal tendencies . A Yoruba man will not go and kill 17 soldiers. These Hausa men know who they treat like goats and who they respect

UncleKoboko:
I don't understand

Before or after the soldiers were killed?

They intentionally joined two exaggerated stories (that happened weeks apart) to cause confusion.

TCF1980:
So, till date you still believed there was no killing at Lekki Toll Gate abi? Maybe after APC leaves Aso Rock, it will dawn on you that there was actually a massacre. However, if you have military friends at Bonny Cantonment and 81 Div, Ikoyi, do buy them some liquour and ask them afterwards.... If Odi had happened under APC, you would have as well gaslighted Nigerians to believing that it never existed.

what triggered ODI is similar to what just happened, and the fact that it happened in riverine area again leaves little or no doubt

ODI happened at a time, social media or camera phones were almost non existences ... but what the military did in ODI is evidence till now,
Whatever happened in ODi OBJ & the military did with there full chest, from emotional side it might not be justifiable but it was a good deterrence, imagine about 20yrs after we are having a re-occurence

ppogba:
When you listen to the audio that is transcribed into this story, you will know that the author of the video is so daft that he thinks other Nigerians are a s daft as he is.

The soldiers opened fire in the Town Hall just like that? And as someone said, no one iin the whole community had a phone or a device to record.

So, after the soldiers opened fire, perhaps, the community now decided to kill them or what?

So many flaws in the whole story but of course people are reacting based on emotions as it is typical of Nigerians.

who will stand to record when there is Mass shooting going on

Watianoengineer:
When Isreal was bombing every inch of Gaza just because of the actions of few Hamas insurgents, majority of the hypocrites condemning the actions of the Nigerian Army today were supporting Isreal to continue the genocide. To them every one residing in Gaza are all terrorists so Isreal's action to bomb everyone was justifiable.


Now the tables have turned and the Nigerian Army are ready to do what Isreal is doing in Gaza. A dozen or more soldiers were murdered in cold blood but you hypocrites wants the army to look for the killers and not make the whole community pay.

If you can support what Isreal is doing by punishing every Palestinian for the offense of few Hamas agent, then the Nigerian Army should as well wipe out the whole community and make them suffer for the sins of the few killers.

Oga shut up with you loose brain, you guys talk too much with little sense of reasoning. If the military was doing this leveling thing Everytime they was attacked then most northern villages would've been crushed.

[quote author=DONFRANSKID post=129013500]Killing innocent civilians that you swore to protect.
This shit only happens in Nigeria [/quot

But the people who were meant to be protected first opened fire on the soldiers......

Next time, try to be logical in your reasoning

helinues:



K-leg story . This one don dey sound like Lekki maskara tale ..

Shooting at the town hall would have cost so many lives...

It's unfortunate that some people are just too emotional to read through news logically ..

If such happens to you some day I hope you will be alive to give a logical explanation.

Stop comparing the two... this community is in Nigeria ... not another country ... hope your wish will be the same if it was your community where your parents and loved ones live ?
