While attempting to jump over a drainage channel, a Nigerian soldier fell into it and was swept away by the water.

Attempts by bystanders to rescue him was unsuccessful.

People underestimate water. See, any flowing body of water that is above 4 inches deep or goes above your ankle will bring you down. Anyone that goes above your knees will carry you away. If you don't respect flowing water, it will disgrace you.

Werey was forming hard man for water.

I'm sure he thought the water couldn't carry him until it happened. Water, fire, wind ain't what any humans should play with irrespective of who you think you are.

The soldier will definitely survive because water is part of their training

To think that he's an MP whom should deter and prosecute soldiers from committing such crime, has now been the culprit. God have mercy

Please, has the presidency checked on their first class citizens in the bush? The Fulanis, the killer herdsmen and cows. I hope they're safe?

Not funny...


I thought they use to put recruits inside gutter and flog them as a way of eliminating civilian mentality from their head.

Didn't baba learn how to swim in gutter when he joined the army?
