Y'all really think the Army will do anything about this? I laugh in Swahili

The Army protects it's own like no other. These men will only be told to be careful next time when punishing a civilian. And to also make sure no one is allowed to snap pictures.

Accountability !!!

deadZONE:
If them see boko haram
them go run hide say them no give them better
weapon. as if the weapons boko haram are using
are from transformer age of extinction..
the names of those soldiers should be published
and they should be striped of all their rankings and sentenced \to death.
a disgrace.. this is the reason why the USA and other advance countries
cant help Nigeria with weapons.. it would result to more ABUSE.

Ode You missed this time

And when they are being accused of human right abuses in the NE,they would deny it with all their strength.

The army are just playing to the gallery, nothing
will be done to those erring soldiers.

Nigerian Army like dishing out promises
they won't fulfill.

The military and other agencies in Nigeria must wake up and come to terms with the fact that Nigeria of ten years ago is different from that of today. What we saw in that picture occur everyday in Nigeria but they are coming up with this statement because they are caught and the world is watching. A formal statement or condemnation of this horrible act by President Muhammadu Buhari will send a strong message to officers who abuse civilians that they will face the music if they are caught.

Whoever took the picture and even the media outlet that published it should be commended and encouraged.

dearpreye:
Kudos to the paper that brought this depressing sight to the public. The Army keeps denying what's clearly the norm within its institution.

Don't mind them. They are upset that the picture was publicized. We have a very undisciplined, unprofessional military.

The Nigerian military has reacted to a photo published on the front page of Daily Trust newspaper today which showed a soldier torturing a man in Mararaba, Nassarawa state over the weekend. According to a statement by the army, the soldiers have been identified and will face disciplinary actions. The army press statement below...

The attention of Nigerian Army has been drawn to a front page photograph of some soldiers maltreating a suspected robber at Mararraba, Nasarawa State, on the front page of today’s edition of Daily Trust newspaper. Sadly, it is also trending on the Social Media. There is no doubt the photograph has done incalculable damage to the image of the service. The act was unfortunate and at variance with military ethics and professionalism.
The Nigerian Army wishes to inform the public that the perpetrators of the offence have been identified, summoned and would face disciplinary action.he Army has also reached out to the management of the newspaper over this poor and worrisome editorial judgement by giving this misdemeanour prominence in their paper. Alerting appropriate Nigerian Army authorities would have been a better option that will be met with prompt response. We wish to assure the public that the Nigerian Army would continue to protect and respect human rights and that this regrettable incidence should not be used as a yardstick to judge the entire Army.

Thank you. Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman Acting Director Army Public Relations

hidden anyway !!!
@Op, why would amnesty international won't criticise NA .... even where the person na ArmedRobber, can't these soldiers take him to nearest police station and follow up his case to ensure he get jailed instead of these nonsense inhumanity .... what did he steal

Wetin dis colonel dey feel like? As if na d 1st tym be dis...Abeg!

I know of countless occasions where civilians where brutalised by the Nigerian army and nothing was done when they lodged any form of complaint to the appropriate authorities. I was almost a vicitm of bullying by amry men in kaduna, I stood my ground and by God's grace I scaled through. If that newspaper or magazine contacted the Army first, they won't be promptly attended to. They would be made to undergo rigorous protocol, until they re exhausted. Many have been victimised and nothing was done. Nigerian Militia buckle up!!! If you re out to protect lives, why then join the police in destroying and wasting lives? The military in Europe are hardly heard of, yet they re very powerful.

But its not a new thing na , its bn a long aged culture practiced by d nigerian army, some even force an innocent public driver to swim in d dirty water in d gutter. Some even strip innocent people naked on d street of uyo here in akwa ibom state.

VaselineJelly:
Just look at the retard yanning dust about how the paper erred by publishing the said pictures as opposed to sending the info to them. Who knows if they would have acted on the info given to them without a little pixel push

A picture is worth a thousand words as they say Mr. Soldier, so don't hate, appreciate. Don't condemn them, but applaud them for bringing the situation into the fore front for public debate and consumption, mtcheew

The only language they understand is to bring such to the public fore, if not, they will not act upon it. Kudos to the paper...more power to your elbow.

poseidon12:

Thanks joor. Just within the past two weeks, we've seen at least two of such extremely degrading handling of defenseless civilians, and these guys keep pandering to themselves. The Nigerian Army is a deeply indisciplined institution.

And instead of simply identifying and committing their offenders to discipline, they are also talking of being embarrassed by the paper that did the sensible thing.

Nigerian soldiers giving a a suspected robber jungle justice.
Nigeria army are rapist and murderers-US Senator.

Slimzjoe:
Knowing the Kind of Country I come From, I can bet Nothing would be Done about it. If they Really Punish Such Soldiers as they always Claim, such Nonsense Won't happen again

.

Brother believe me something is really gonna be done about it trust me..their is military law and civil law governing every soldier and he/they just violated the civil law.and if he was acting under any superior order or reasonable act..his gonna feel it hot..but u guys should be careful of this guys cos most of them can use cos of pride and kill over sabi civilian..(was once in the system)

Seriously, this punishment is long overdue.
All this stupid Uniform men thinking they are above the law. Just wish this happened in Lagos.

Idiataqueen:
hehehehe do u mean stc God don fall hands dis time.

lol dem tif my spot. God dey sha!

Spybradd:
deadzone no,if that guy is truly an armed robber,he deserves that treatment and more..had it been he wasnt strlpped and tortured but shot straight in the head,what wud ppl have said or done?

Oga, even sanity of life must be protected no matter what. There should be dignity for humans in our societies even if an robber is caught.
This is what separate a barbaric society from civilised society.
Do you think they have armed robbery cases in the western world? But they do not go about stripping people naked (even in the presence of minors) or carrying mod actions (such as beaten with club, putting pepper into woman's vagina, using tyre and petrol to burn human being alive) against alleged or red handed caught criminals.
We must rise above emotional and sentimental bondages in carry about our daily activities and civic duties.

BUHARI's MILITARY!!!
Even after replacing all Jonathan's Service Chiefs, who would Buhari, APC and Lai Moh'd blame this on?



Nigeria, you never see anything! Brace yourselves!!!

saintfizzo:
More of this and soon all nigerian forces would be sanitised with respect, discipline and dignity restored.....the only problem is how to take a picture without bulletproof vests on.... I get mind o,but I'm my Mama's firstborn

Shiooor
You no get mind reach me joor.
But na me be the only pikin for my mama and I never give her grand child

Kudos to the photographer, it looks like the pic was taken from a window abi na satelite?

Gone are the days of "Unknown soldiers"
