Mutiny is a serious offence in the army

You know as well as I do that "mutiny" in Nigeria can simply mean "being stubborn".

Soldiers dont have the same previledges as we civilians do and they all know that.

On the battlefield, they don't, but when they return home they should be treated as civilians in my opinion.

Soldiers do not arrest people.  That's not what they are trained to do. 
They are trained to shoot to kill.  That's why we also have the police.

I have not watched the video and i will not watch it. 
I know terrible things happen in the world, and I wish I could make a difference,
but even on Nairaland i can't prevent people from fighting so let's just pray.

Soldiers fight for different reasons. Sometimes it's revenge, e.g. when their
colleagues are killed by militants they just go on rampage on innocent people.

Thank God. The Punch website is currently more popular than Nairaland, but with this change Nairaland should be back in the number one position in no time. God is good!

Why do you need a C++ server framework? What kind of apps are you developing?

This case is different. www.equitorialtrustbank.com is a legitimate website.
The criminals actually created a fraudulent page on the bank's real website.
(Fortunately, the page has now been removed)

Please note that your bank will never ask for your ATM pin, for any reason.

I don't like the fact that the application form is not free, sir.
