allanphash7:
This is inhumane

The pinshure no clear joor

saaedlee:
The useless soldier doesnt know that he his causing more traffic asking d danfo driver to park on the road, just to punish him.

WhoBeThisMan:
This is wrong. Nigerians I smh!!! Why on earth will a soldier force a driver to be rolling in the floor?? And the op is here saying "I want to use this medium to commend the Nigerian army blah blah blah..."

Even though the driver was wrong, the soldier has no right to pinish him like that. He could have simply handed him over to the police.

Nigerians know your right!!!

that is nonsense from the military. if anybody commit offense. then charge him to court for violating traffic law. not by intimidating civilian because u are in uniform. if they should exchange blow on one one can that soldier beat that danfo driver?

Cool but this is an abuse of "military professionalism"_____ Things of this nature made the United State said it won't assist Nigeria with Arms to fight terrorism because they abuse Human Right______ Thou m not saying the Driver Did the right thing__# Meanwhile that Guy above me must be insane

i live in lagos, Ikorodu. I pass drive through the dreaded IKorodu trafic every time, so i know what I'm talking abt. It's easy to applaud the soldier right now for serving a rootless pinishment on a guilty Danfo driver as judge and jury until it comes to your ow doorstep.

It's the attitude of the soldier that wrong. In his mind he says "who is this bloody civilian". Trust me this and attitude that's appluded by you right now, can lead to something else.

Soldiers are ment for the protection of the citizens, even the wrong ones. It's not his call to serve any punishment what so ever, unless he is required by law to do so.

Knw ur right, knw ur right, if I hav a nickle for evrytime I heae som1 say dat. Truth is, more n more nigerians r becoming imformd man, most r jst afriad given the kind of country we live in where it is not abt ur rights as a citizen somuch as it is abt how much u hav in ur bank account. This is one part of the military am so ashamed of, neva mind this traffic problems one encounters wit dem, how abt the camouflage tin, if u somuch as wear a camo, ur dead meat, hav evn seen whr soldiers beat som1 up for having a camouflage handkerchief, a handkerchief for gods sake. Its abhoring!!!

The op should check himself into a mental facility for being insensitiv. I mean it in a good way

tunergy:
I understand you now, you have a fixed mindset about how the soldiers behave and hence you comment. I have nothing against that.
However for the topic of discussion, there is a traffic Grid which the Military personnel are busy working to free up, and the lawless Danfo got out of queue and did their usual thing, Block it all up.

If you were the Soldier, what would you have done.

In this situation.

Your opening line was GOOD, but by the time i finished reading, i realised you have seen too many African Magic Movies

benedictnsi:
in developed nations, you as a military can't start brutalising or bully someone because they are feared or appears stronger than you due to the fact that they are under the umbrella of certain immunity.

tunergy:
I want to take it that you have not driven in lagos before.

That said if truly Nigerians should know their right, "PLEASE ALSO ADVISE NIGERIANS TO KNOW THIER DUTY AS CITIZEN"

How many drivers have regard for pedestrians or even fellow motorist.

Drivers in Nigeria (especially Lagos) are selfish and don't just care.

So when they get served by those who just don't care about their rights too, its just about right.

Knock yourself out.

VaselineCrew2:
Why is everyone saying "You haven't driven on Lagos roads?"

As if we should now start killing danfo drivers.

You lot are disgusting men, freaking animals. Why stop here, why not have the military man assassinate him right there and then

Countries are developing at a high pace, instead of us to join that league and find lasting solutions to our problems, we'd rather take the brute force approach, which hardly every solves a pervasive problem anyways.

I will not lose hope in Nigeria though.

tunergy:
Oh Mr Disgusting me,
Please stop.
If you re-read your comment again. The Animals here are the Danfo drivers. And if you must bring how Countries develop into this discussion, ask yourself, if the Danfo drivers are behaving civilised.

Its people like you who would always feed the animals to keep growing into monsters on the road.

Mr Vaselinecrew2 have you been acousted by military men before for driving according to the traffic law?
Pls share your experience.

But am sure if you have driven well in lagos you would have fixed tail lights, side mirrors, reattached bumpers not to mention fixing dents caused by yellow buses.

If anything should disgust you, it should be the Danfo drivers.

Deal with that.

VaselineCrew2:
Yes they do disgust me as well, the danfo drivers that is, however I'm not one to advocate for extreme and debasing measures such as using a whole countries military to curb traffic maladies, that's just absurd.

Be an advocate for civility as well, else what separates you from the danfo drivers you term to be uncivil

Advocate for police reforms, data logs, 24/7 traffic enforcement with patrol vehicles. Don't be an advocate for jungle justice just because you feel hurt.

benedictnsi:
Though the law States that defaulters should be lambasted or sanctioned but I despise the way at which our military punish people. Handling and abusing people in the name of "THEY ARE BLOODY CIVILIANS".

in developed nations, you as a military can't start brutalising or bully someone because they are feared or appears stronger than you due to the fact that they are under the umbrella of certain immunity.


Dedicate this FTC to the victim jor!!!
