Buratai Ordered To Pay N11m As Civilians Floor Nigerian Army In Court by 12Ebisco(op): 1:41am On Aug 24, 2018
The Abuja Division of the Federal High Court has ordered the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Tukur Buratai, to pay N11million as damages for the breach of fundamental rights of 11 Gombe State indigenes illegally detained by officers of the Nigerian Army.

This followed a fundamental right enforcement suit marked: FHC/ABJ/CS/777/2018, which the Applicants filed through their lawyer, Mr Mela Audu Nunghe.

The court, in a judgment delivered by Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu, declared the detention of the applicants, James Yusuf, Ishaya Ali Poshiya, Nehemiah Yohanna Poshiya, Husseini Poshiya, Hamma Poshiya, Yusuf Mafindi, Yila Boyi, James Bare, Ezekiel Dandaudu, Ali Ishaku and Ilya Bala since July 6, illegal and unconstitutional.

Lt Gen TY Bruatai will remind the most active and best service chief in Nigeria.

The first service chief to go to warfront while others stayed at the comfort of their air conditioned offices to loot the Army and give useless commands to their juniors.

The first service chief without a pot belle.

The first service chief who has the soldiers at heard.

God bless Gen TY Bruatai.

God bless Gen Muhammadu Buhari

God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

God bless the good citizens of Nigeria.

Please fellow nairalanders, vote PMB 2019. We all need him for this one reason .

1. He's is God's sent to Nigeria and Nigerians.
