Lol. Let me laugh in chinese. grin grin Sis, what you said is not true at all. I am speaking from personal experience.

My dear, I've lived close to the barracks since I was five. Just a stone throw. My secondary school, church, where I buy things were there. I had lots of military friends from non commission to commissioned. I worked there for months. So, I'll tell you what I know.

Many of them don't know.

I don't see how that's poor. They get free accommodation (barracks), kids of military parents in schools like command pay about 12k per term compared to 75k and above paid by civilian parents. Free medicals and lots more.. so how is that salary small? It's even too much if you ask me..

Cc Neddstark

Thanks for the more info

It is not just about the pay. For the heroes who lost their lives in the fight against insurgency, their families are usually neglected. The government don't even care to know how the families that the heroes left behind are faring except for those who died as a highly-ranked personnel. I really feel for the widows and children of those who lost their lives who don't usually have anyone to support them. Indeed, Nigeria is not worth dying for.
u Ave spoken well

Nigeria should invest in military tech.

Don't pad the numbers, it stops being an advantage at some point.

One tech can do what you need a 1000 foot soldiers for.

If you read my diary, then you will know the reason why I said that your post is not true and that I am speaking from personal experience. smiley

I don't need to read your diary to know what I've experienced myself.

Looking at Nigeria in perspective, it's unworthy to join any of the armed forces. A country that has no relevance is not worth staking one's life for. Even if they pay 500k/week, I won't still join any of the armed forces.

Why are govs,reps and president not earning the minimum wage?Why must it be the hardworking individuals that earns peanuts while the lazy ones who happens to be politicians earn fat salaries.If it not that the army officers are cutting from the rank and file and misappropriating funds for the military they won't be earning that much too.


At the moment , police and military men earn more than lecturers if you judging by grade level. Except you're in the military, I don't understand your argument.

Forgive them. E no easy to go forest come back

So anybody that went to the forest will now turn to rascal abi? No wonder the whites are tagging us animals. Someone who is meant to protect you are the ones causing nuisance on the road.


The only people that block roads are criminals, such as armed robbers or kidnappers

your assertion is not entirely true, apart of free accommodation the health you talk about is as a result of NHIS which some other federal agencies also benefit from it. On cars I don't see how they get access to cheap cars except cars with incomplete papers that a seller is in a haste to sell, a military personnel can buy such cars at a cheaper rate and use it without acquiring the requisite papers which is also a risk
