You just shot yourself in the foot.

If the case is in court why is the retired military man still developing the land.

If the case is in court why is the retired military man using soldiers to beat up anyone that comes to the land.

Is the military above the courts?
So Wikes duty it was to enforce court order?

Let it be clear, All over the world, The military is a government on its own.

They are not subject to civil authorities...
They have their court, police and other institutional structures.

If you have issues report them to military authorities and they will be discipline.
That is why they can wake up and overthrow civil political leadership(even duly elected) and there is nothing you can do.

The Judiciary knows this very well.
But they will not tell you in open.

They only obey one person in the country,
The C-in-C.

Let it sink...
Wike is just a bloody civilian.
He is very lucky to leave that place without a bloodied nose. He is lucky to be alive.

For his safety next time, tell him not to try that mess again, he may not come out alive.

He showed he was the biggest fool.

The only one and simple thing Wike should have asked for is his superior. And that solves it. You dont say he was still is secondaru school bla bla bla...that sounded not so mature in conversation emnanating from Wike.

Hmm Wike really messed up. His utterances was uncalled for, he just disgraced himself, instead of engaging higher military hierarchy to address the issue diplomatically he felt like a demigod until he met his match.

But again, as much as Wike is an arrogant silly egoistic chump, why is Burutai quick to release a statement? Why hasn't he made a statement against bandits and insecurity in the country then he is quick to release about this incident huh
if na you Dem won collect your guy land, wetin you go do before it gets to your turn

The quality of personnel in the Nigerian military (both present and past) is very low. How does Wike arguing with a military officer a threat to national security? Also, this non. sense of army officers using military personnel as private guard needs to end. A soldier will buy land, plant cassava on the land, and put "Military Zone-Keep Off", because those illiterates don't know that Military Zones are places where military hardware or equipment are being produced, stored or tested. Back to the subject, Wike had no right to be calling the guy names. That's very uncivilized (just an average Nigerian politician's attitude). The way the guy reacted was appropriate. It showed discipline (military discipline means maintaining composure under great provocation, not the dense idea that you slap your mother if asked to do so by your superior officer). And finally, I know for a certainty the soldier wouldn't have reacted in a civilized manner if Wike were not a government official.

Soldiers are not more important than the rest of us. They are one citizen, with one vote, civilian in uniform. They should not be above the law
You are missing the point. There are channels to handle Military and Security organization issues.
Even the CDS didn't order the Officer out because he wasn't the one the gave him order.
How can you call an Officer a fool! Too much

Hw can a ministry or an agency of govt be on enforcement and then u say u follow orders.. however, where wike is to be blamed is his slowness to call d CNS Or CDS to order his boys out. Altogether. It is an embarrassment to the country that a security agency would prevent the work of a representative of govt. This is not much about wike but the chaos of the system. Indeed the c-in-c should actually issue a query to the CNS(since the officer was actually following orders) for allowing his institution to be involved in such lawlessness
Wike is too notorious, many people in Abuja are happy someone could stand up to him eyeball to eyeball

He needs to calm down, Abuja is getting dirtier by the day, na to dey demolish peoples properties be him own mandate 🤣

Just because he didn't support the fraud called Obi in the last presidential elections.

Wike was 100% correct in his actions yesterday because the retired naval staff illegally occupied a land and was using the military to beat up everyone that comes to the land until Wike showed up
He was 100% correct to call a military officer a fool?
You people will never disappoint

Buratai is not intelligent and still living in the stone age.

A military person fragrant disregard for constituted authority is a threat to national security.

A retired military personnel is illegally occupying a land and instead of providing documents to show ownership decided to send military men to beat up anyone that comes near the land.

The military people have been beating up everyone that comes near the land until Wike himself went to the said land and the FCT minister was denied access to the land.
Wow, if this is true. People are not aware of this part of the story

Focus on the topic. This is not about bandit.
If the property doesn't belong to the Nigeria navy but an individual who is a personal even if he is an officer is still under the law.

It is only in Nigeria that a uniform man feels he is above the law.

But he has all the necessary paper work for that land, then wike is the one looking for trouble.

THIS IS A MISSTATEMENT. BURAITAI MUST BE THINKING THAT HE IS STILL SERVING UNDER MUHAMMAD BUHARI. IS HE CONFUSED THAT HE DOESN'T KNOW THAT HE IS VILIFYING THE GOVERNOR OF THE FCT? AND A MINISTER, MUCH MORE THAN A GOVERNOR?
BURAITAI MUST BE BANISHED TO NIGER REPUBLIC.

Wike on the other hand should have called the CDs or CNS.
is just an ordinary let be honest. Not an elected person, but was chosen.

So he should disregard his duties to obey an errant person? Where is borderlines in that? If Wike has an sense of borderlines and responsibility, he ought to have found out who placed him on duty and directs his rantings to the person, not the person under authority. Many of you have grown and lived too much in chaos to understand how an orderly society ought to work.
So the job of a military officer is now to guard a private property?

Where in the world is that one being done besides Nigeria?

And as to Buratai, when is guarding a private property become a national security issue?

Nigeria has become a joke to the world.

However, Buratai, in his reaction, said the minister’s tone and public rebuke of a uniformed officer amounted to “a reckless act that strikes at the core of Nigeria’s command and control structure.”
Buratai had no much respect for "command and control structure" when he was in service though. He too was huge on self help.
