They are the victims, you leave your country to cause chaos in another man's land
If they go around naked leave and go back to your country

They should just bring the boys back home. One can only imagine what they and their families have been going through.

I feel a ton of sympathy for their families. I doubt the soldiers will be maltreated while in detention because it could escalate relations and the situation on ground.

I believe Traore wants to use this opportunity to make a strong statement and he has achieved it.

afrodoc2:
Corrupt civil servants bleed the country as much as , if not more than politicians.

There are thousands of them all over the country guzzling public funds in copious amounts and most of them will never have their names in the papers once not to talk of the public knowing who they are.

I think they are worse than politicians. Politicians have term limits and every 4yrs they spend a huge amount of money seeking re-election
Some of these corrupt civil servants have been in one position for 15yrs no one has heard of them, they do not even share their loot around to anyone but their families

If i wan chop money wella Given the choice to be in Farouk position and senator I will pick Farouk a position that almost 90% of Nigerians never heard of till a few weeks ago

...and we are wondering why Trump placed visa restrictions on us 😂

Remember months ago on this thread when we were debating incomes related to how CMDs and Permanent Secretaries' annual salaries aren't up to #15 million and some people were stating I am wrong because they know of Mr. A and Dr. Zee who are training their children abroad?

Faruk is an example of how they can afford such things.

That Perm. Sec. living large is a crook. And if your relatives are doing same, just know they are crooks too.

Public service salary structure in Nigeria, 2025:
https://geniusbrain.ng/post/federal-government-salary-scale-monthly-net-salaries-of-ministries-departments-agencies-in-nigeria/ .

This is public. Now imagine CMDs for private hospitals. Are these people not high up the societal ladder? Yet #15 million is not something they would cough up easily.

You can keep pretending to be Nairaland Dangotes.

This was the start or middle of it.

We all knew those living above their stated incomes were corrupt in many ways but what are facts to a fleeting gotcha! moment?

If Dangote hadn't expose Mr. Faruk, he'd have been exemplified as how people in his position earn millions of dollars.

We easily explain away unexplainable show of wealth. Or excuse it.

Mr. Faruk is a scapegoat. What about that Deacon in your church?

This might sound funny but a part of my brain thinks the Trevor and Melvyn monikers are digital twins somewhat 😂 Most times, when I come across their posts, it's almost like I'm reading from the same person. Weird, but I can't explain it.

Yes, I know Trevor is a Utd fan and Melvyn supports Real Madrid. Also, Melvyn has been known to have strong feminist leanings, which I can't say the same for Trevor.

My theory is they share certain patterns along the lines of their writing style or personality and my subconscious some how picks up on this. There are a couple of other NLers I have this thing with.

Anyway, you can always excuse this rambling of mine 😂

You are Trevor012, he is Melvyn11. How much of that is just coincidence? Also, most Man Utd fans support Real Madrid as their second club, because of CR7.

You better confess, this guy.

Your point was CMDs don't earn above 10M per year. According to Dangote, Mr Farouk was spending over 300M on school fees for his children yearly.

Two very different conversations IMHO.

Even if they earn 20m annually, the best they should realistically afford is admission into the very lowest-tier universities in the West, and that’s being generous. Yet we both know that’s not what’s happening in reality.

Honestly, I agree with Disstroy. Any civil servant earning 10 - 20m a year and comfortably sending their children abroad for schooling is almost certainly corrupt. Even if we factor in side businesses, no CMD would be able to sustain that without dipping into corrupt practices.

The Nigerian Air Force C-130 crew, earlier detained in Burkina Faso and released on Thursday, has continued its mission from the country to Portugal with the same aircraft.

The crew, comprising 11 Nigerian personnel, was on a mission to Portugal for scheduled aircraft maintenance when it made an emergency landing in Burkina Faso.

There's no way we landed there without first taking permission and letting them know. I feel that Burkina Faso president used it to boast his reputation of being a tough guy.

my sentiments as well

not like you can use a c130 with a massive radar footprint and limited maneuverability for a clandestine mission

Yes, you're making my point. When I stated CMDs don't make up to #15 million, folks on this same thread claimed I was "capping", nevermind that I kept uploading proof.

Their defence was, "I know a man who trained all his children abroad in the same position or similar, and there's no way that's his salary."

Remember what brought about the argument ? Me stating #15 million is a luxury for people that high. That any of them driving a car worth that amount is certainly not being open with the full details.

Even in State Civil Service Commissions, there are workers whose full salaries are #300,000 driving cars of #10 million.

A Police Inspector's salary just got raised to #250,000 last year, but you have Police Inspectors driving #12 million cars.

Before the Faruk case, if Disstrøy had pointed it out, even with salary sheet upload, he'd been be dismissed as "just capping".

Most public officer holders are crooks. Where do you think all the kickbacks from hospital equipments and upgrades go?

It's the same conversation I was making. I quoted my comment from May so anyone can track how that went - it was only me reiterating these points while they rest were upvoting takes based on "I know a guy who".

Facts are facts, even when most people don't momentarily agree. It's why I like to post links to credible sources when debating these things.

We were debating the issue this morning in a WhatsApp group. Many government appointees and high-ranking civil servants in the group amongst others.

I uploaded the same salary sheet I had uploaded here. I could almost touch the uneasiness with how thick and hanging in the air it was as some stopped commenting. Some who many know have acquired properties way beyond even triple their annual earnings this year alone.

Immediately someone posted something funnily controversial about Trump, they latched on. "This ràcist guy, blah blah blah" to deflect. I got the message.

Someone close from the group messaged me privately like, "[Disstrøy], you see your people?"

The Faruk case will be dropped. Too many civil servants will be taken down if that case is investigated and a precedence set with it.

That's why they are blackmailing Dangote all over social media, and calling him fighting too dirty.
