naa waaooo, see how this bubu govt have succeeded in reducing our once strong military
to weak and wailing military.
what of the $1b approved for the fight against boko_harram? corruption is still destroying Nigeria, yet bubu's govt claimed to be fighting corruption.if this govt is not serious in the fight against boko_harram, by not equipping the soldiers, it's time the soldiers refuse to be sacrificial lambs in the hands of these corrupt entities in the military.

If you are not part of the system, you can understand how the military run. And your comment exposes your naivety.
There is no comment in the videotape that is wrong. He knows that comment or complains is meant to his boss's consumption alone.so, he respectfully conveys his message to his boss. But I think where the error comes from is the leaked video where he was also part of the story.

Oga shut up and stop arguing with me. The statements might not be wrong but the manner of address is prohibited in the military. You don't make statements like that publicly and it will be taken lightly. He should thank God he's a senior officer. He might have been dismissed.

You are still exposing your naivety... I don't want to be beating the proverbial dead horse. I'm off

toluxe0075:
I believe that video was leaked. His consistent use of "sir" in the video indicates he was addressing a superior officer concerning what they were experiencing on the battlefield as against what they were told.

Who is superior to him? Was it the chief of military intelligence or chief of army staff or chief of defense staff he was talking to?

Lool

Let them remove him the truth has been told

festacman:
ALARMIST. His redeployment is part of extensive redeployments just released by Nigerian Army.

More than fifty officers couldn't have been hurriedly redeployed by Nigerian Army just to just to punish one General Adeniyi for making a video. After all, he assumed the position after a similar redeployment in the past.

And it happened almost immediately he recorded that video? "What a coincidence" .

MelesZenawi:
Adeniyi no strong even as Major General..

Finally Babaginda was right " If I wake up and hear a Yar...ba man beating drums of war, I will just go back to sleep".


Imagine he was busy doing video call at war front while Boko Haram are raining bullets on them..

When did military start to allow owambe in battlefield.

Sometimes I wish sense could be updated like android software.

Tóo many children with phones these days.

U would never understand until u get there #nigeria is not worth dieing for. Am a battle tested soldier who served In maidugure. No weapon or insufficient ammunition, no gun truck or common hilux in some locations,lack of proper intelligence report and many more. Soldiers are dieing every day for some selfish individuals enrichment.

There are rules, but if the ogas at the top are cornering and diverting materials, what does one do? In gejs time billions were diverted. Military bigwigs were building shopping malls. There is no guarantee the same is not still happening.

In these parts, when you remove one crooked boss, after a brief period, corruption continues as before.

One does exactly what he had done.

But one should also realize that the chain of command/reporting was broken.

KingAzubuike:

What you people don't understand is that the military has its own constitution. An officer making a statement against the military is a very serious offence even if he's right..

There are better channels to address such.

I was a barrack boy, my father was a soja, so it runs in the family.
We all have been saying it that the funds given does not refelw ts the equipments on ground from GEJ time till date.not to talk of the ones dasuki shared.
Truth is bitter

abumeinben:



There are two sides:

1. The presidency shouldn't have made this happened.

2. How did the video get to the media? Not so professional for a frontline commando.

What will you do if those at the headquarters are giving wrong information about the true state of things, thereby disgracing the army and also misinforming the general public? You will keep quiet, abi?

Gracealone:
Truth is bitter.

I watched the video onTVC #JH yesterday.

Adeniyi's offence might have been that he exposed the lies behind all the dollar loans to procure equipment.

I love the way he spoke . How can the army reduce a major general to this level? Burutsi should relocate to that state. That was what the president ordered when he took office in 2015


There is no improvement to warrant his stay in Abuja besides , that is his home state .

If he fails to curtail this he must never speak againt anyone taking over from him in the future

You have retired now or at new location

And you think the redeployment list was made "almost immediately he recorded that video?" just to hit him.

Hmmm, I said it they have skeleton in their cupboards, see it now. He said the truth,they have redeployed him,inferior weapons everywhere because so many people have enriched themselves over Boko war,that's why it remains unending

festacman:

And have you heard of any other soldier being redeployed?

Bro, I don't support what they did to him.

But in the military, what you said is called Mutiny

About fifty officers were redeployed today. Research today's news

Shame on the useless dullard called general

Speak the truth in Nigeria, you get knock on the head.

Trueigbo:
Adeniyi pls go home. You have tried.

May God bless our soldiers

His entitlement will be forfeited to buratai.

MelesZenawi:


Lalasticlala

Rule 2 violated.

I can send you Data so you can watch the video , understand the context and this time use your Brain while commenting.

Bruntai , how u think


He can fight his people , and against his belief ?


They should try a Christian general from SE if they really want to fight book Haram !

Was General Ihejerika not there before? Did he end the war?

Turantula:

Post evidence here

General Adeniyi knew the implication of making this direct video to the president who is the commander-in-chief. In addition to his removal, he may subsequently be court martialled and dismissed and relieved of his commission for gross insurbodination. There is a chain of command and I don’t think he can bypass the COAS and speak directly to the president.

Obviously his message was to the commander-in-chief, the man on whose desk the buck stops. Very wise move by the general, but obviously a costly one. He made himself the sacrificial lamb in trying to bring attention to the plight of his men who he saw first hand in fatality and injury.

He also outlined the deficiencies in intelligence gathering which brought about false intel that led to battleground losses and humiliation. There may be fifth columnists involved in the whole theatre of war, but they can be tracked and tackled if there’s commitment from all and sundry.

Good enough, Mr. President was sad at the news of the ‘70 soldiers killed’ about a week ago, and promised to intensify effort in the war against terrorists. Well, the ball is in his court, and what he does with it depends on him.

General Adeniyi is a brave commander and a HERO, in my own opinion.

No price is too much to pay for the lives of your boys on the ground.

My Respect, Sir!
