Why is there no risk allowance for soldiers. Yet senators get dress allowance. What has the government done for ex service men. Nothing. No war bonus, no kind of special incentive. Yet elected officials get millions by the day. This is really pathetic

Trouble looms ahead. I thought the claim that the stuff soldiers are made of is obeying the last command. A lot have changed this little while. If the soldiers who are trained (robot-like) to face death without considering whatever risk that lurks in the act of doing so now find excuses or whatever to do what is demanding of them, who worship order and respect hierarchy like God now have the effrontery to disobey, threaten and even rebel against the stance of their superior under any guise, nothing can be presumed to be right.

The day the gallant warriors who are sacrificing everything they hold dear for Nigeria to remain and for every Nigerian to live stop being loyal and being made scape goat, we all know that we are sitting on gunpowder.

Well, it's high time those superiors respect the right of the surbodinates to at least have access to their families once a while.. It's pretty unfair and an act of inhumanity to man at its peak.

They are in big trouble.... Court martial in progress.....

Even if they give them candle to go and fight... The rule still remain "obey the last command"

They are crying about family... They have forgotten that the day the sign up to be a soldier... That was the day they get cut off from their family.... My dear soldiers it's from war to war.... You should be happy to die as a soldier.

The proper heading should have been: Soldiers with origins from SS,MB, SE and SW and who are mostly of same religion, refused to be posted to Marte after they had served in Maiduguri for about four years because that is definitely what is playing out here! ....This guys will die in battle, and the wicked govt will give them silent burials, just to save it 'face'.... ...Just Hope some Human rights lawyers will arise to help them from the backlash that will follow!

BREAKING: Angry soldiers ]ground Maiduguri airport, threaten to shoot superiors

There is currently tension at the Maiduguri international airport in Borno state as angry soldiers are shooting indiscriminately to protest their deployment from the state capital to another local government.

The aggrieved soldiers reportedly arrived at the airport at 6pm ahead of their posting to Marte local government area.

But trouble started when they regrouped and refused to board the aircraft which ought to convey them there.

The soldiers who are of the special forces said after spending over four years in Maiduguri, they ought to be sent back to their families and not to be posted to face death.

An officer who witnessed the incident said superior officers, including Bulami Biu, general officer commander (GOC) of 7 division, were asked to stay off the airport or risk being shot.

“The second batch of pilgrims from Borno boarded their flight amid the commotion,” the source said.

“The special forces are ready for trouble. They are really angry. The superiors were asked to stay off or be killed.”

More to follow…

Good. Way to go

God knows that if I'm a soldier, instead of going to die in the hands of Boko Haram Terrorists due to embezzlement of fund by superiors. I will risk organizing a coup and topple the government with some strong minded colleagues OR we embark on a shoot-at-sight operation on all our bosses.

It is better my name enters into Nigerian military history (even if it's to pay the ultimate price) than to die like chicken in the bush fighting for a useless country.

IBB, Buhari, and Abacha all risked it.
You coup will not successful and you will definitely pay the ultimate price. That's just it.

Forget about IBB or Abacha, gone are those days, not now again.

You are right.
There is something very 'un-natural' about this Govt.

The issue here could stem from two things:
- The top Echelon of the military dont have access to illicit money, like they use to do in the past hence, they even digging deeper into the solddiers welfare package
- The Neptosim of this administration is getting to brazen abd unbearable, even for a soldier sworn to obey the last order. Posting the same set of soldiers on suicide missions while they see some of their mates doing soft-targets or body guards to politicians can really be demoralising.

Either way, it portends a breakdown of chain of command and danger to our democracy.
But me, l am really tired of these useless, decamping and selfish politicians, l hope soldeirs will sieze all of them in that NASS and just do Nigerians a favor.
almost One thousand Thieves carting home over #20Million every month, just to perpetuate their selfish interest, is a bogus waste of resources, resources we dont even have.

They are ignorant.

Any little political confusion, some people will start calling for coup. They are not aware that Nigeria and Africa have moved beyond that level. Have they witnessed any successful military coup in Africa in the contemporary time? They don't realise that it is no longer fashionable in the world. These people still have the mentality of 60s and 70s.
India, South Africa or Brazil where they have stronger military, their average citizen will not think of coup at any slightest political crisis in their countries.
But these ignoramus think coup is a a sign of civilization.

Did you say GAINS?

Look around you and tell me the so-called gains.

I can tell you that as bad as the military where, 80% of the infrastructure in this country today, were built under military regimes.
We have spend the last twenty years under Politicians, what do we as 'citizens' have to show for it?

How many Power stations have they built?
How many replicas of the 3rd mainland bridges have they built in 20yrs?
How many Ports, schools, Hospitals, Water Works, etc have they built? Now look at how much they have stolen and how much they "legally" steal. in form of payments to themselves.

Democracy is desirable, better than any military Govt but we dont have a Democracy yet, what we have is just a bunch of criminals masquerading as Democrats.... these leeches all deserve to be reduced to rubble, in one fell sweep, in that their NASS.
