They're not very smart, are they. Apart from using pics from other countries' conflicts for their fake "white genocide", they lazily re-use photos almost as if reverse image search isn't a thing. This particular specimen was first deployed in 2019!

Make una de play first. Wike in cahoots with the presidency woke up and handed the mandate of a governor to a rtd CNS. A whole state! It's a piece of land that y'all are talking about the law for now? LMAO

I AM NOT A FOOL


Look, I used to live in the barracks, all the blabla you just said is inconsequential. What matters is that in every barrack what the military personnel saw was a corrupt political class disrespecting the military. Each Nigerian soldier, retired or actif is fuming right now.

This reminds me of the prelude to the Gideon Orka coup. Soldiers value honour in a way most civilians in Nigeria might not understand. These are people who basically die for their honour and their oath.

Fct minister, whom has never been shot at in his life, needs to show more respect for people who put themselves in the line of fire between civilians and terrorists. When was the last time the fct minister or president or any politician for that matter went into the trenches and fought against boko haram ?

If I were to be that young officer, I would have ordered the minister's entourage to not get up to 1 metre near me and my men would have stood in fighting position aiming their guns at the Entourage. If the minister insults me, I have my men arrest him. (I'ld lose my job, but he would lose his tooth).

This is coming from me, a guy who likes Wike.

Nigerian military is still not investing in drone warfare 😓
The next insurgent group will be very drone savvy and would destroy the Nigerian military as a result of that.

Nawa o, it is as if we re all born in this country as a form of punishment.
If basic rule of law is alien to majority of the populace, don't yall see this country is not even a functioning one to begin with.
This is the effect of past military regime that has once ruled this country. The arrogance is still in them.
I thing we need a serious leader to put everyone in check in this country including uniformed men, politicians and civilians alike.
Imagine a lieutenant standing up to a minister/governor of the federal capital.
And we see all alot of people suffering from Stockholm syndrome supporting him.
A newly commissioned office wey never even pass 5 years of been commissioned.
We re done for in this country.
If emotion, politics, religion and what not can supercedes constitution/rule of law in this country.
Well I can't help, we still need alot to learn concerning this democracy.
It is painful seeing educated people supporting the total disregard of civil law by uniformed men jst because they dislike the the minister. Isn't this madness.
Funny thing is this lawlessness go touch everybody.
If u haven't been affected by it don't worry it will get to u in no time.
If some illerate soldiers can walk into a community and start wrecking havoc on civilians because they were given order by an equally illiterate senior officer nd we have equally miseducated zombies supporting them. Una never know wetin dey worry una.
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Ghostagain: 11:31am On Nov 13, 2025
Ministers are appointed, governors are voted in. So it is not the same thing.

Show me the position of the minister in the military chain of command.

If you want to have a military, you should learn how it works. Being a minister doesn't mean you can give orders to soldiers and officers. You need to follow the chain of command.

Disrespecting a soldier or an officer is not permitted even for the president.

You don't understand the military and you don't understand democracy. In a democracy, ministers and presidents work for the people, they are not above the people, they are under the people, so they are not entitled to "who are you" attacks, nor to calling an officer "a fool".

Some people think they are operating democracy while worshipping civil servants instead of asking the civil servants to serve.

See how the guy above is fuming because a lieutenant dared to stand up to a minister. In that commenter's head, the officer should have prostrated for the ministers and licked the minister's shoes. That commenter thinks civil servants are like kings and the people should be serving the civil servants, that is what he thinks democracy is about.

Replacing military dictators with civilian dictators: democracy. 😓

You should take ur own advise to know military institutions nd civilians institutions re different and military has no jurisdiction in the civilians space nd likewise civilians doesn't have in the military space except in situation where state of emergency has been declared.
Learn ur constitution, it will save u alot.
We re in a democracy for God sake not a military regime where military reign supreme.
" Whatever authority the military has start and ends in their barracks whenever they leave their barrack to the civilian space they re to respect and obey the civilian laws and authority."
Even former chief of army staff Mr taoreed lagbaja alluded to the highlighted when lagos govnor arrested one recalcitrant soldier for passing one way in Lagos few years back.
Consult the constitution so that you can know your civil right so has not for it to be violated by one illiterate bully in uniform.

Mr man, of you want soldiers to be treated with zero respect then you should first make conscription compulsory for upon reaching 18 years of age. Let everybody go through military training and dangers and duty, then from that point, you can start insulting an officer in the streets if you want.

But while you've never put your life on danger to protect the country and its people how dare you disrespect an officer? Or support someone doing so ?
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by QuietMynd: 11:53am On Nov 13, 2025
The soldier was even telling a policeman he is his senior. huh huh As how na.
We need to question what some of our military men re been taught in our military institutions.
High handedness is rife within the rank and file.
It is embarrassing. If you check the quality of the other rank in the nigerian military and compare it to the other rank of other countries, you will know we re raising terrible men in the military.
Only the airforce is a little bit different.
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Ghostagain: 11:53am On Nov 13, 2025
You seem to not understand the concept of "acting on orders".
Contrary to you, I've leaved in more civilised countries.

Soldiers can be given orders to perform withing the country.

The fact that soldiers don't have jurisdiction out of the barracks is greatly misunderstood by you. Indeed soldiers are not policemen, the question of jurisdiction doesn't even make sense in their case, they are not policemen. However the military police are the soldiers for whom jurisdiction makes sense.

When a soldier is given a duty to perform inside the country and outside the barracks, don't bring up your "jurisdiction" talk, it makes no sense. To interfer with the mission, you need to adress the chain of command.

It is not lost on me that you don't seem to know the difference between a soldier acting without orders and a soldier acting with orders. I don't have time to explain the difference to you. I only hope you are smart enough to do the research.


The officer in this case kept repeating that he was acting on orders...

This annoys me because I actually like Wike. But I'm also a truth teller. I can't stand people when they try to deform reality.

Jst admit u re wrong initially concerning the limit and jurisdiction of soldiers in a civilian space.
That aside, on the issue of other. That order is even an illegal one.
That soldier is an orderly to a retired officer. There is limit to the errand the soldier can be sent.
You re telling me if the rtd officer sent the soldier on an illegal land grabbing errand which is against the military ethics themselves and can put the soldier in serious trouble, he should carry it out because all order na order. Whether moraly right or wrong.
The rtd officer actually knows what he is doing, if he had the necessary document backing up the land, do u think he will send soldiers there in the first place.
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Stoplying: 12:12pm On Nov 13, 2025
Rather than presenting logical arguments, you want me to just give up and start singing your praises 🤣
Are you ok dude?
I've shown you that you were wrong.

You seem confused and emotional.
I've explained it all, but you want to continue arguing and you want me to just start singing your praises. 😓
I don't feel like addressing your comment point by point because it looks like it comes from the brain of a kid. You can do better than this.

Una go do stunts until you tear ACL

"A newly commissioned officer yadiyadiyada"

It is the years of thuggery and demagogy that has affected Wike's appreciation of the decorum for exercising governmental powers.
Suddenly a rtd CNS holds no weight to him when just this year, in cahoots with the president sacked an elected governor and replaced him with... a rtd CNS!

Wike's doltishness was further on display post the CDS call to the lieutenant. The chain of command the lad is bound to upheld his orders and what did Wike resort to? "You're a fool" etc

It is mentally weakness to single the lad as low hanging fruit. The penchant of the average Nigerian to start from belittling.

I didn't follow the story about removing the governor of rivers. I don't know the facts, but if what some people are saying is true, then the removal of that governor is an other act of banditry by the president.
