Soldier, Police Inspector Arrested For Vandalisation, Stealing Railway Property by treesun(op): 4:49pm On Mar 22, 2025

A Nigerian soldier and a Police Inspector identified as Akowe Joel have been arrested for stealing customised batteries from the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC).

Also arrested is a staff member of the Railway Corporation.

A police signal obtained by SaharaReporters showed that the trio were caught at 3pm on March 19, 2025 in Kaduna by troops of Sub-Sector 4, Operation FANSAN YAMMA.

The operation is a joint military theatre command established to tackle insecurity in the North-West.

The signal read, “GOOD AFTERNOON SIR X SITREP X 20/03//2025 X 37 PMF X GRATEFUL BE INFORMED THAT X INFORMATION RECEIVED FROM ASP JOHN MOSES X UC MINE ON OPERATION FANSAN YAMMA KADUNA STATE X HAS IT THAT AT ABOUT 1500HRS OF 19/03/2025 X INSP AKOWE JOEL X MEMBER OF UNIT MINE ON SPECIAL DUTY X WAS CAUGHT ALONG WITH ONE SOLDIER X AND ONE STAFF OF THE NIGERIAN RAILWAY X FOR STEALING SOME CUSTOMISED BATTERIES X PROPERTY OF THE RAILWAY STATION KADUNA X SUBJECTS X HAVE BEEN DETAINED AT 1 DIV. NIGERIAN ARMY HQS KADUNA FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION X FURTHER DETAILS WILL BE CONVEYED SOON AS ARE AVAILABLE PLEASE XX XX

CO 37 PMF.”

This is coming months after two personnel of the Nigerian Army, CPL Innocent Joseph and L/CPL Jacob Gani were arrested for vandalising and stealing armoured cables at the Dangote Refinery in Lagos State.

They were caught moving out of the facility with 897 armoured cables cut to size.

Eye witness report.

A soldier came to my shop begging me money for transport fare, first time I'm seeing a soldier begging I was moved tears and I felt pity for him. Remember he was dressed up in full military gears.

Most of Nigeria Nigeria soldiers are very hungryooo. Truth be told.

Military that is a failed Institution that couldn't perform both their foreign and domestic responsibilities, they are culpable in the demise of development in Nigeria, Instituted corruption and implanted racial wars are now the ones a democratically elected president is using to supplant another democratically elected governor!!!

These same soldiers are the ones flaunting constitutional laws and impugning on civic rights of Nigerians at the slightest provocation and altercation!!

They are either collaborating with enemies of Nigeria in domestic operations and giving lazy, untenable excuses when it is time to carry out a d defend the country against external aggression!!

It is a shame and a slap on democracy that a president that is once a victim of military junta is romancing with them just because he wants to slight and promote impunity over common sense !

Soldiers that are not well organized, corrupt and always living on falsities of their powers and force only in the face of civilians, they would steal Nigeria and hide it in their barracks !!

The president should recall fubara with ultimate effect!!

There should never be a space or opportunity for soldiers to participate in our national lives, never again!

Not just soldiers, even police

A CSP of police ( that’s a very senior rank) told me that his salary is 330k after putting in about 15yrs of service. Meanwhile after retirement he gets paid less than 50k monthly

How on earth is such a person expected not to be corrupt when the opportunity presents itself

Many of us are still playing politics, we don't see the evil coming. If nothing is done to arrest the situations, armagedom is closer than our nose. grin
