Ukraine military recruiters raid bars, restaurants looking for men not registered for conscription.
Ukrainian military recruitment officers raided restaurants, bars and a concert hall in Kyiv, checking military registration documents and detaining men who were not in compliance, media and witnesses reported Saturday.

Officers descended on Kyiv's Palace of Sports venue after a concert Friday night by Ukrainian rock band Okean Elzy. Video footage aired by local media outlets appears to show officers stationed outside the doors of the concert hall intercepting men as they exit. In the footage, officers appear to be forcibly detaining some men

Ode, the difference is Ukraine is defending her land. Ukraine didnt invade Russia. Ukraine had this war thrown at them so anything they do to defend their land from the land grabbing tyrant mad dog Putin is allowed

Russia on the hand, using innocent, untrained civilians from other countries forcefully and deceptively to fight his useless war is wrong on many levels. But do you even care about what's wrong as long as it is not happening to you? Guess what, it just might. Keep supporting evil. 72 virgina

Nigerians should henceforth open their eyes to the truth. And back off from supporting either of the 2 countries.


Same with Isreal and Iran. They don’t give a fvck about us in Africa.

LOL..I like your sense of twist.
But altogether let's pray for our country man. It doesn't matter what part he comes from in Nigeria. His life is at danger.

That's if you did it voluntarily, in his case, he was forced to join the Russian warfront soldiers because he was a convicted drug peddler serving jail term in Russia. They conscripted him from Russian jail to the warfront; he had no option but to join Russia's war cry
He wasn't forced, they gave him options to choose! It is all about survival of the fittest.

If you have ever watched documentaries or read about Russia's maximum security prisons where high profile criminals like him are jailed, you will understand that he didn't have any other choice but to join the war front soldiers fighting for Russia

But the North still rule over them in South West. The North forced Sharia laws on them. They North will soon install Emirs in every part of Yoruba land just like they did in Ilorin.


Mentioning Yoruba and courage in the same sentence is a disgrace to the WORD "courage" itself cheesy

He has Russian passport? Doesn't that make him Russian?

Propaganda, they're Nigeria citizens that willing join , because Russia gives them citizenship. But I can't fight in this war because of technology use , what is the use of hiding when a drone has spotted you ,or a night google can see you in the dark. It is just a killing field.

He didn't display any courage, he had no choice because he was a drug trafficker serving jail term in Russia. So he was conscripted from jail to fight for Russia at the warfront in exchange for a reduced years in jail should he survive the war cry



If Nigeria was working, he wouldn't have migrated to far away hostile nation like Russia to peddle drugs in the first place. He is lucky, Ukraine might spare him by releasing him to Nigerian government
He has a choice. He can remain in prison to serve his jail term.

Either Nigeria is working or not is out of it, drug dealers we go out of their zone either to buy or sell drugs.

They conscripted him to the warfront from Russian jail, with a promise to reduce his jail time if he survived the war, which was unlikely, and he said they were many, and most have been eliminated by Ukrainian forces cry
No one forced him to join the Russian fighters. The article says he joined in order to receive a reduced prison sentence from his earlier conviction.

He has a choice. He can remain in prison to serve his jail term.

Putin should stop his senseless invasion of Ukraine. He cannot win the war, Russia doesn't have the military capacity to win the war. Russian men are running away from joining the army, instead of Putin to quit, he is busy wasting Russian male population and now sacrificing vulnerable men from other countries in his war of ego.


From North Korea, China, Africans and Afghanistans, Putin has been going around the world befriending funny countries just to deceive their leaders into giving him their men to fight for Russia, I never knew Putin is this dishonorable and inhumane, it's a shame, Putin have ridiculed Russia cry
Your comment and reality are two different things. He is winning the war even though the media shows you less from Ukraine and more from rissia.

Bola Tinubu's failed regime and thoughtless economic policies drove many Nigerians away from Nigeria to just any country as soon as Tinubu became President. Continue argue and defending nonsense in the name of tribalism, e go soon touch your side, pray Tinubu doesn't win 2027 election, if not you go understand better, don't worry

I know a lot of Nigerian youths are looking for ways to get out of this country for a better life somewhere, but this is not new because this has been going on since the early 80s.

Tinubu government is not different from that of his predecessor. Nigerians are blessed with evil leaders.

I strongly believe the guy will be treated and released. He was captured by Russians .... and was not a mercenary . His captors understand his situation very well. If he were a mercenary I guess he would've been resting in a shallow unmarked grave. All because of pushing drugs.
oh ok so he was fighting for Ukraine ? Is not what the title says
