Each time they witnessed tragedy which is certain, PDP and it's hierarchy would be first to use it against them.
I love and talk with them more often and all they needed is word of encouragement. This is what we call Amajirish English,if everybody dey write English like you,we 4 no dey hear English today

May God bless my gallant military men.

Oyimeoyimemua:

AllenSpencer:
Oh! So they are stripped of their constitutional right?


Hello, Soldeirs have a right to vote and that translates to having a right to support their candidate.

Is it not same democracy America and England are practicing

Sirjamo:

etebefia:
Still trying hard to understand your badly structured sentences.

Daboomb:
Sorry Bro, I understand that you confirmed that you are in hell fire, with many of your types who feed fat on corruption!

Fortunately, people like me and millions who see beyond illicit money, are thanking God because we are doing good and even moving to the next level of enjoyment

Now, a lot of people don't drive within Abuja, they simply hop-on and hop-off one of Buhari trains.
Go everywhere, construction of roads, rail is providing jobs, agriculture is booming and farmers are turning millionaires, 2nd Niger Bridge is ongoing at a dizzying pace, traders and market women are being assisted to boost their capital.... and you are here "burning in hell"?

I pity you, lazy PDP Yoot.

Nigeria
Army Chief Accuses Atiku, Others of Inciting Military

Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Major General Tukur Buratai


*Says no room for disobedience to lawful orders

* Asks officers, soldiers in doubt of their loyalty to resign before Feb. 23

By Kingsley Nwezeh in Abuja


Ahead of Saturday’s presidential and National Assembly election, the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Tukur Buratai, Wednesday accused the Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, and some other presidential candidates of inciting the military to disobey lawful order.

Buratai, who demanded that a statement credited to the former Vice President be withdrawn, said it was unfortunate that some presidential hopefuls aspiring to “rule the country again” were inciting the military.

The PDP flag bearer and former Vice President had, in his speech at the NEC meeting of the party, urged the military not to carry out unlawful orders, following President Muhammadu Buhari’s directive that ballot box snatchers risk losing their lives.
Buratai said the military remained apolitical, stating that such incitement would not be tolerated.

“It is unfortunate to hear persons who are aspiring to rule this country again inciting the army to disobedience. We have consistently stated our position in the political dispensation to remain neutral and apolitical.

“However, direct and public incitement of the Nigerian Military against democracy and constituted civil authority will not be tolerated. I request such persons to withdraw this inciting statement
“Let me re-emphasise loud and clear, that the Nigerian Army is a professional army. The foundation of military professionalism is discipline and without discipline an army cannot stand.

“One of our core values is loyalty to constituted authority. Loyalty must be hundred per cent. I shall leave you in no doubt as to our resolve to bequeath a professionally responsive army to Nigeria and Nigerians”, he said.

He warned that officers who are not given to loyalty should resign before the election.

“Should any officer or soldier have doubts as to his loyalty to the Nigerian State as presently constituted, such a person has up to 22 February 2019 to resign. There is no room for indiscipline or disobedience to lawful orders in the Nigerian Army today”, he said.

He said those seeking to undermine democracy should be regarded as enemies of democracy.

“I wish to first remind all of you that the unity of Nigeria is not negotiable. Hence those who seek to undermine our democracy by interfering in our electoral process must be seen as enemies of Nigeria and dealt with appropriately.

“Our role is aptly captured in the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended) and we must defend Nigeria’s territorial integrity as well as act in aid of civil authority when called upon to do so.

“Therefore, commanders must work with all stakeholders, interest groups and agencies to avert any act by any individual, groups or entities that seek to undermine our democratic process”, he said.

Buratai noted that the political thuggery, ballot box snatching and illegal possession of electoral materials were acts designed to mar elections.

He warned commanders not to hobnob with politicians, restrict movements within their areas of responsibility, conduct extensive patrols while suspicious persons and vehicles are to be searched, arrested and impounded.

“I want to remind all here present that the act of electoral thuggery, snatching of ballot boxes, illegal possession of elections materials and similar crimes are intended to mar an election and create deliberate avenues for post-election violence and mayhem.

“Such actions can also become more damaging when they are widespread, leading to destruction of lives and properties. Incidences of this nature in previous elections are often planned and orchestrated by politicians and the NA has hitherto been very cautious in its approach.

“However, this time around the NA will adopt a proactive posture that ensures that similar incidences do not even arise. Accordingly, in addition to my earlier directives to you in the last Operations Conference, I wish to lay emphasis on the following actions that all commanders are to abide by”.

“Commanders must deal decisively with any electoral crime or action that would be inimical to National Security. Commanders are to ensure that they and their personnel do not hobnob with politicians at any level.

Oyimeoyimemua:
Our Gallant Soldiers should not be involved in partisan politics. This is totally wrong

Soldiers swore an oath to serve and defend the nation not politicians. This act is highly condemn able. All military personnel must at all time show neutrality, so as not to be bias when deployed for electoral duty, to ensure free, fair, peaceful and none violent elections.

This is wrong especially in this already heated electoral period !!

Daboomb:
Stop shivering as a result of "sifia pains".
You will still be shot, if you steal ballot boxes!
Buratai has warned you.

Daboomb:
I am sure you never read Buratai's statement because it was a DIRECT WARNING TO ATIKU & PDP.

Below is the warning of Buratai to his men, Atiku and ballot snatchers in particular:



Hope you can see how Buratai is warning Atiku to stop inciting the military against "constituted authority and lawful order to "snatch ballot and get shot"?
