This are some of the things the average Nigerians go through daily on Nigerians road, anytime I pass through itokin road, I do feel like crying cause of how horrible the road is and it do make the journey very uncomfortable for me, once i reach ijebu igbo i dey always use panadol , but who cares about it since buhari does not pass through the road.

The Government will release funds to the military for weapons, yet some people will steal some of the money and still threaten this same military personnel when they complain... I can still remember the day Alex Baden said soldiers that run away from boko haram will be court martialed immediately in the war zone, they didn't address the problems till today nothing has change in fact this buhari government is more worst.

The APC promised change, but nothing has change.

The pulling out parade of the five generals was witnessed by top military officers, both serving and retired.

Amusu, in her valedictory remarks, attributed her success to hard work, dedication, commitment to service and divine help.

She admonished serving military personnel to remain focused and resolute, and exhibit total loyalty to constituted authorities.

“Your loyalty to the Federal Republic of Nigeria can best be given through vigilant security consciousness,” she said.

The Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Tukur Buratai, was represented at the event by the Corps Commander Ordinance, Maj.-Gen. Joel Unnigbe.

When will buratai retire sef

The guy don tey for there and he has not done anything special for him to stay this long.

I wouldn't bother trying to reason with certain people here. Boko Haram and other terrorist and not well meaning organisations are succeeding in their propaganda and turning people against each other.

There are thousands of soldiers in the North East fighting bravely, but no, base everything on a few terrorist edited videos.

The same soldiers will be there whatever political party is in power. The security services recruit from the populace. Maybe Nigerians should look in the mirror.

absolutely true and apt

Sizzorkay:
Sure no need to use overwhelming force when faced with crowds like that, at the same time we have certain groups in that country that have no respect for the rule of law nor respect the right of others to their property.
Some people in that crowd were throwing stones, and soldiers do have the right to self defense, but when assailants are mixed with unarmed civilians, it become dicey , but such force shouldn't have been used, kicking and beating people like that is part of the unprofessionalism we've been talking about, all they had to do was detain those they caught and take them to custody, no need for the assault.
Both sides are at fault here.
If told to disperse ,why not respect that? Instead of literally trying to overrun men with guns, what did you think was gonna happen?
What would you do if hundreds of angry people descend on your position? Fight hand to hand? They used the only tool they had, that was their gun. Not saying anything here was right, but both sides are to blame, you can't attack or confront armed troops and expect them to stand there and watch while being stoned to death.

Men that showed up with improvised nail spikes and other dangerous weapon. If show up with such weapon in developed countries you will definitely be shot.

walemoney007:
See the dumb and foolish question this dirty thing is asking me

Did I forced them to join the Nigerian army

Were they force to join the Nigerian army

I can never join a useless military organization that start paying a military personnel that serve the Army for more than 20 years his pension one year after he retired, the WO2(retired) has been paying some of the debt he found himself in because some generals don invest him pension

I can't serve an Army that most of is barracks can only be compared to a piggery

I can't serve an Army that takes advantage of females in IDP camp

And finally I can't join a military that are only galant when is time to kill and fight unarmed civilians, this same military do perform woefully against militants in the creek( the FG is still paying militants till today), cattle rustlers, herdsmen and the lord of the Nigerian army Boko Haram

Guys just ignore these dude.

Henry240:
That's the achievement of Buhari in 3 years. A country completely destroyed.

A country were Major Generals and Chiefs of Defence Staff can be murdered like common fowl.

A country were our biggest achievement is MRAPs built by Proforce.

A country that has collapsed.

It's was far worst during GEJ'S regime, do you know how many top exmilitary men that died during is regime.

These are the result of people like GEJ, The said Alex Badeh is the most corrupt defence chief we ever had. They brought us to where we are today.

So don't be sentimental.

Henry240:
Nice.

I think he's Army Headquarters Strike Group.

Yeap

Sometimes I wonder how we take everything to be politics. [b]Things like this have been a long time coming. This country is awash with guns, likely because of the conflict in the north east and the militancy in the south south. [/b]It did happen after the civil war. This man might have been assinated, the question is by who? Maybe aggrieved family members of slain military men in the north east that feel he should be in jail but moving freely. It could also be a robbery attempt, it's been happening everywhere, this one is just a high profile person.

And they just lay the blame on a serving president ... . May wisdom never depart from you.

We are in serious trouble in this country. The supposedly educated folks make skewed comments based on ethnic, religious and political line and make it seem as if it's the truth. What is happening in this country has been a long time coming and the government of the day is bereft of ideas on how to checkmate the security challenges. Previous governments led us to this but the current govt is also treading the same path. Certain things we cannot say here.

Who should be held accountable for security in Nigeria?

You, me, Governors, Senators?

Has the courts proven him guilty of embezzling funds ? yes or no ? its over three years now. we are just so quick to go emotional and call people names. Him and others are innocent until proven guilty.

No why ?

Nothing much sha

A Yoruba adage says "kókóró t'on je efo, inu efo lo wa" (The insect destroying the leaf dwells in the leaf)

We have been saying "the person before me should have done this" for 58years. Are we going to say it for 58 more?

Buhari and Jonathan, aren't they the worst of the worst. End of all, its one bad followed by another equally bad deciding our fate and guess who suffers?

In between them are the masses who choose to put their faith in people like that. Jonathan's indifference coupled with arrogance of Buhari when security issues are concerned. Military remained same old, insufficient and undertrained. From whence would security assurance come with those qualities above.

Political will is where it's all at. Else next incoming President, it'll be same old shitt.

I mentioned Gen de Villiers last year-he resigned after the military budget was reduced by 5 % last year saying:“In the current circumstances I see myself as no longer able to guarantee the robust defense force I believe is necessary to guarantee the protection of France and the French people, today and tomorrow, and to sustain the aims of our country,”.
Anyway he's a potential caretaker prez! In an unprecedented move the French brass has publicly delivered a warning letter to Macron warning on uncontrolled immigration . The MSM has been quiet but there's been MASSIVE UNREST OVER UNCONTROLLED IMMIGRATION AND SCHEDULED FUEL PRICE INCREASES ordered by Macrons' real bosses. He's maybe the most unpopular history in the history of the world at a 18% approval.

Paris, December 07, 2018

Mister President,

You are about to sign the "Global Compact on Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration" on 10 and 11 December, which establishes a genuine right to migration. It may impose itself on our national legislation through pre-existing treaties or the principle of common responsibility set out in this pact.

It seems to us that the only sovereignty that will remain with France will consist in freely setting the way in which the objectives of the pact will have to be implemented. You can not give up this new part of the national sovereignty without a public debate whereas 80% of the French population considers that it is necessary to stop or regulate drastically the immigration. By deciding alone to sign this pact, you would add an additional reason for revolt to the anger of an already battered people. You would be guilty of a denial of democracy or treason against the nation. .

Yes,poo is that bad! Cops are not only underpaid and overworked they despise Macron as much as everyone!

Seeking to soothe police forces demanding improved working conditions, the French government on Tuesday proposed giving 300-euro ($340) bonuses to officers deployed to the aggressive and disruptive protests that started last month.

https://www.thedailystar.com/cnhi_network/french-govt-offers--euro-bonus-to-protest-weary-police/article_f8ef1c94-2d0a-5c23-9e7f-73984cd9b299.html

Btw,this is happening all over Europe-people are finally fighting back against their Zio bankster leaders-if this move goes all the way there are definite implications for the nature of the French state and by extension Jean-Fraude's false flags with BH and AQ in the Sahel. Iow,BH might be defeated when their Paris backers lose

Odunayaw:
Courts? Our broken Judicial system you mean?
You mean Badeh's theft is a work of our imagination?

God help us!

we are still implying the same thing, fact is he has not been proven guilty yet.

Really? This is all u can come up with? What procurement has this Govt made compared to GEJ? In terms of tackling corruption GEJ even did better than PMB....considering that "fighitng" corruption is PMB's war cry. It would be very senseless to blame GEJ for bringing us here...when the current Government has had over 3 and half years to "fix" whatever issues u claim that we have. Instead of calling what we are going through as it is you decide to be defeatist and join the blame game. Thank God u have left the Army because it doesnt need commaders who blame rather than proffer solution

It's absolutely okay to blame the president and that's your unequivocal right but should the blame wholly be on him? We have a system that has been completely dysfunctional and is still dysfunctional. It's easy to blame the president on Badeh's death but nobody is talking about the dead driver. You see why I did say the system is dysfunctional. Maybe Nigeria will get better if we begin to have an introspection. Some people might think that Nigeria has a leadership deficit, the problem is the people, it's very hard for us to see beyond our noses without bringing inanities into matters, that's why it's easy for soldiers to kill unarmed shitte and we think its okay, that's why politicians bereft of ideologies easily cross carpet to other political parties as easy as they change their girlfriends and Nigerians think it's okay. That's why a sitting governor will be recorded collecting bribe and nothing will happen. That's why the senate can go on recess for no good reason without discussing the budget. That's why a senator can pose with his expensive cars in this country acclaimed to be the poverty capital of the world. That's why the elites and politicians can look at us in the face and tell us Bleep you lot because they know we are filled with inanities and their actions bears no consequence.

Security was first politicised by the APC when it was in the opposition. It's supporters and leaders continuously used any breach of security in the country as an example of yet another failure of the Goodluck Jonathan administration. It got so bad that After each bomblast, social media newsfeeds will be flooded with dead bodies including concocted and photoshopped pictures from other war tone countries. Along with it were liberal commentaries of curse and political damnation to the then ruling elites. It worked. Jonathan and his gang are no more

Now, 3 years 7months after those who promised to stop the carnage took over, we have a different narrative. Death must never be reported. Attacks by boko haram must be tolerated. Massacre of our soldiers, even if it is in hundreds, must be ignored. Their logic; don't politicise security. Ladies and gentlemen, security has to be politicised because security has to be discussed by the politicians.

It is Buhari that is incharge of our security. He delegates authority and has the exclusive powers to delegate, deploy, appropriate, hire and fire. These powers are absolute and like Jonathan, he is utterly clueless and incompetent on how to use them. Accordingly he has blood in his hands!

Alex Badeh was no ordinary man. He was a four star general, air chief and chief of defense staff. His assassination easily within the fct perimeter is a serious security breach. We may strongly feel some people deserve to die because of what we think their past represent, but we should equally be informed enough to know that some circumstances around their death may portend a greater danger for all. Badeh could be tried and hanged for all l care. But if he is killed with that ease on one of the most secured federal high ways, then l shudder. In fact, l even cry, when young educated people, some of them even lawyers and future leaders, would rather come here to curse and blame his dead body rather than who are In charge of our security in the last 43 months at both the political and professional level. Buhari, not Badeh's dead body is to blame!

RIP Nigeria

Let us not talk about the NASS...Let us focus on where the President has total control...The executive and everyone under him....Everything rises and falls on Leadership...that is what we must focus on....Presidents have stepped down for failures attributed to them....Here we explain everything..If there are issues with governance it is the job of the President to proffer solutions and not blame someone else....This trickles down to the Military and Police...If the C in C can explain away failures what do you expect from those under him

True. Or when equipment is bought it is refurbished and at 3 times the cost of a new one. I still vividly remember how some connected middleman bought used T-72s for $85k and sold same to our army for $2.5 million.
The immense corruption in the military boggles the mind and looks set to continue till eternity, cos there is no accountability.

walemoney007:
The Nigeria military is filled with cowards, only powerful when facing unarmed civilians, that's the only time they are always gallant

A useless military struggling against a ragtag boko haram in Nigeria territory.

And some fools over here will be comparing this incompetent military with that of SA, what an insult

True. Watching the NYTimes video of the Abuja massacre truly brought this home to me.

You think the NASS can be absolved of all these, even the Judiciary too? These people are also leaders in their own right. If the NASS are not preoccupied with their own selfish interests you think the executive will derelict on their own duties, for gods sakes they are supposed to check on the other arms of govt. The NASS is supposed to be the strongest arm of govt because they can impeach the president. I agree that the blame is completely on the president because he is the leader that everyone sees but does that absolve everyone of us. I will say it in black and white that the problem of Nigeria is Nigerians themselves. We want to make noise because a high profile person was killed, forgetting that every life matters even his driver's. Why don't we make noise for every Nigerian that has been killed on Nigerian roads. Why didn't we make noise for the aguam adara that was kidnapped and killed in kaduna state. Why didn't we make noise for a certain serving colonel and driver that were killed on kad/abuja road, but because this one serves some political interest it's okay to use it. APC used the same tactics too but does that make it right? Until we emancipate ourselves from political/religious/ethnic bigotry then we continue as we are.

What goes around?

RIP Nigeria

Brother, see PMB is not in control of anything, you no hear when his wife said 2 people dey rule all of una

It's so shocking when people justify some of this

Nigerian politicians will do some crazy things yet some of we citizens will justify the evil and even commend it ... If given the opportunity, some guys on this thread will do far more.

If given the opportunity some people on this thread will kill far more people marching/protesting just because they threw stones and nail spikes then they deserve to be shot death with machine guns The French protesters were even throwing projectiles at their policemen yet none has been shot dead... If the French protest is happening in Abuja only God knows the number of people the army would have bomb and some people will justify the killings in here

Men Nigerians are very wicked and very terrible set of people, they are more loyal to an organization than they are to Nigeria... Some Nigerians that complain about the way the government loot, if they find their self in such positions they will loot far more than abacha did and even order the security to shoot to death any protester that protest against it.
