Politics / How Wicked And Evil Soldiers Almost Killed A Brother by romance007: 2:24pm On Jan 16, 2016
This is what a brother narrated to me about his experience with the Nigerian Army. I will try to cut out some details. Don’t mind if I don’t tell the story as organized as he told me.
It happened in the Birnin Gwari area of Kaduna where soldiers have been stationed to fight cattle rustlers.
On 29th Dec 2015, he and five of his colleagues who had gone to a part of the town to work went out as early as 6:30 am to get breakfast before they resumed their menial job for the day. The house they rented was close to a market. On their way to get food from the market, there was news that soldiers had surrounded the area probably in search of some trouble makers. They thus made a u-turn back to their rented quarters as advised by people of the town. Minutes later, they started hearing gunshots and an elder of in the place told the six (6) of them (all Christians) to join the other villagers at the mosque so that if death comes, they die together. The area is actually predominantly muslim. After a while, soldiers came in to meet them at the mosque. It appeared the gunshots came from their fights with the rustlers, some of which were still within sight. The soldiers then separated the women and children from the men.
He told me that he witnessed a soldiers death when he stepped few metres from where the others were gathered. He was shot dead. In total, 2 soldiers were killed while 3 others were kidnapped. The soldiers also lost some of their cars. After several hours of staying around the mosque without food, the oga came around with two hilux vehicles and ordered some of his men to call out eight men. My brother and one of his colleaques were called out alongside six other men. They thought that was succor. He tot, at last, he will be driven to safety. They were ordered into the vehicles and they moved several kilometers of untarred road. At that time, it was already abt 7pm. They got to a small town and the soldiers argued among themselves. It appeared they were seeking for a secluded area. They moved on until they got to a bush where they parked and ordered them out.
They requested their identities and asked them of their phones. After collecting their phones, they told them that they’ve lost 2 soldiers and 3 had been kidnapped. Hence, all eight of them will be “wasted”. My brother kept pleading as the others. He told them he is a stranger but for where? All pleas fell on deaf ears. He said the soldiers had already drank all kinds of tramol and co which they had looted from a shop. He said he noticed there was only one Hausa soldier there; the rest being Southerners. He said the oga and one other guy insisting they should be killed were Yoruba. Finally, they were told to drop on their knees and say their last prayers. “Christians, say your prayer, Muslims say yours too” they ordered. When they all got on their knees, still pleading, he heard the soldiers cork their gun and then the shots came. He simply jumped further into the bush with torns injuring him but he cared less. He could only see with an eye as blood was dripping from the other; courtesy a blow he received from the soldiers. While he ran, he could hear the oga telling the shooter “No let am escape”. He said the place was dark and they probably could not site him in time. He said if they had a torch in their hand at that moment, he would probably be gone. But I think it’s just the mercies of God that saved him; it was simply not his time. The corpse of his other colleaque was later picked-up two days later. The muslims had already rushed to bury the remaining six. He said people who inquired abt the incidence from d soldiers claimed they brazenly admitted that they killed them but one escaped.
He was mad and wondered how he could go about seeking justice. It’s unfortunate we are in a zoo and though the guy tried to seek justice, it was gonna cost him money he didn’t have. Unfortunately, I also don’t knw what to do. Wetin I fit do sef? undecided This is probably how soldiers kill innocent people and come back to tell us they killed 100 bokoharam members. He appeared to have let the matter go.
This 2016, No premature death will meet U and Me. Amen!!!

Family / Re: Am Undergraduate And Wanna Marry. Parents Say NO!! Pls Advice by romance007: 6:37am On Dec 12, 2015
Thanks again for all your responses. Well appreciated.
Actually we have planned on delaying childbirth till we are settled in the marriage so we can plan better on the possibility of managing a child once we have a real feel of how marriage and studies is. Also, i make cakes and do braids but have made little income from that since its mostly family and friends requests. He has also been assisting me in school though my parents pay most of the bills. Ive known hiim for two years now and i believe he understands his responsibilities.

Infact, he made me open a special savings acct sometimes back where he plans on saving money for my studies once i step into his house. Within 7 months, he droped 60k but i depreciated it to 40k on his own accord. We are thinking of marrying the later part of next year and he still plans to continue saving into that acct. He told me that some 80% of whatever we grabs from our wedding reception (naija style fund raising grin) will be sent to the same acct. That he wants a situation where the money will build up so that i could start a mini biz that will not take much of my time and that can support my schooling when he's broke. I hav also not let my emotions becloud my reasoning too much but i believe he wil make a good hubby. Oh God, help me not to shoot myself in the foot. Am not being stubborn not to listen to your opinions ohh. Just wanting to sample lots of opinions.

I appreciate you all for your contributions. Though i still got some perturbing questions. Pardon me if am silly.
When it is said it's not easy combining marriage and academics, BESIDES CHILDBIRTH, which other troubles are there?
I currently go to school from my parents home. Thus;
I got a multitude of dishes to wash daily whereas i may end up washing just 2 pieces in my husband's house.
I got several rooms and the compound to sweep sometimes twice daily whereas only some few with less dirt in my husband's house.
I got a community grin to cook for whereas i got to cook only for two in my husband's house.
I got Mummy, Daddy, and siblings to attend to their errands even after the stress of school grin whereas it's just my husband's errand i have if married. That's besides the possibility of having a househelp if it becomes too necessary.
I got my siblings assignment to assist with whereas my Husband's assignment would only be on Bed wink
Daddy wont assist me with that school assignment neither will mummy wink whereas i believe my husband will be there to assist.
I dont have to chat for hours on call or whatsapp with him since he will be having me around almost always meaning less distractions.
Plus i dont get the pressure of selfservice cool since he's gonna be there almost whenever needed grin
favoured234, vilight

Moreso, i dont contribute anything financially to my parents at the moment; Its gonna be the same thing with my hubby too until i graduate of course or he establish small biz for me as we are already planning.
So i ask again, besides the stress of pregnancy and child rearing, anyone wanna educate me on other troubles i havent seen cos of love blindness? Pls dont mind my foolishness if any, Its just LOVE wink. Thanks

Family / Am Undergraduate And Wanna Marry. Parents Say NO!! Pls Advice by romance007: 7:50am On Dec 08, 2015
Pls only matured advice.
Am young (21yrs) undergraduate. I currently have an NCE. I met this guy about 2yrs ago and am deeply in love with him. I believe strongly that he loves me too. We are both from Plateau State with diff tribe but that's never an issue. We share similar values and have spoken alot about getting married and how our home should be. Both of us are devout Christians. He has a HND and is already gainfully employed and thus ready to settle down. He's 29. I dont mind marrying him right away too cos ive studied him and i believe he will make a good husband.

Issue is after obtaining my NCE, I started off a five year lab course at Unijos and am just in my 1st year. While he is willing to wait till i enter my 2nd year or possibly finish 2nd year (abt 1.5yrs from now), my parents think differently. My parents dont want to hear me talk about marriage as they want me to finish school and get a job before settling down. My dad is worst as he believes i should only have a boyfriend after i graduate angry lipsrsealed. I know they say love is patient but of cos that's y he is willing to wait till my 2nd year. We plan on delaying childbirth until we are properly settled in the marriage and feel a child could be managed. I cant imagine keeping him for 5-6 years; that's crazy. I myself cant bear not being with him for that long.
Pls has anyone come across such experience? How do you think i should handle this? It's killing me ohh!! pls advice this young lady maturely abeg. Thks
