Yesterday, the General Court-Martial sitting in
Abuja which tried another batch of 59 soldiers for
conspiracy to mutiny and mutiny convicted 54 of
the accused persons and sentenced them to death
while 5 were discharged and acquitted. The
acquittal was designed to give the false impression
that the dubious verdict was fair and just. The
soldiers were in the SF 111 Batallion which has
174 instead of 750 soldiers. The soldiers in the
Batallion were neither equipped nor motivated.
They are young men whose ages range between
21 and 25. Most of them joined the army in 2012.
With little or no training whatsoever they were
deployed to fight the dreaded Boko Haram sect.
The funds allocated for payment of the salaries
and allowances of the soldiers and for purchase of
arms and ammunition are usually diverted and
cornered by corrupt military officers. Instead of
bringing such unpatriotic officers to book the
military authorities have engaged in the
diversionary tactics of wasting the lives of innocent
soldiers by sentencing them to death without any
legal justification.
On July 9, 2014 the Boko Haram sect launched a
ferocious attack on the Batallion. As the soldiers
were ill-equipped and ill-motivated the well armed
terrorists killed 3 officers and 23 soldiers and
inflicted serious injuries on 82 others. While
sympathizing with the bereaved soldiers the army
authorities assured them that adequate weapons
would be provided to match the sophisticated
weapons of the Boko Haram sect. But without the
provision of the said weapons the soldiers were
ordered on August 4, 2014 to recapture Delwa,
Balubulin and Damboa in Borno State from the
Boko Haram terrorists. The soldiers demanded for
weapons so as not to lose more officers and men
in the circumstance. A few soldiers who embarked
on the suicidal mission together with the
Commanding Officer were ambushed by the Boko
Haram troops.
When some weapons were made available on
August 8, 2014, the soldiers moved to the
battlefront, dislodged the satanic Boko Haram sect
and liberated their captured colleagues and
officers. They were commended for their bravery
and sacrifice. But for some inexplicable reasons,
the army authorities ordered that the soldiers be
charged with mutiny for allegedly exposing the
armed forces to embarrassment by asking for
weapons! Thus, 60 soldiers were charged before
the court-martial led by Brigadier-General M.
Yusuf. The charge was however withdrawn against
one of them on health ground. When the trial
commenced against the remaining 59 the court-
martial allowed defense correspondents and
reporters to cover the proceedings. But the
revealing testimonies of the prosecution witnesses
embarrassed the army authorities.
In particular, the defence pointed out that by not
providing the soldiers with adequate weapons the
Federal Government had violated Section 217 (2)
(b) of the Constitution which provides that the
Federation shall, subject to an Act of the National
Assembly made in that behalf, equip and maintain
the armed forces as may be considered adequate
and effective for the purpose of maintaining its
territorial integrity and securing its borders from
violation on land, sea or air.
It is public knowledge that it was when the trial of
the soldiers was in progress that the President and
Commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces, Dr.
Goodluck Jonathan, sought and obtained the
approval of the National Assembly for a loan of
USD$1 billion to purchase equipment for the
prosecution of the war on terror. Up till now, the
loan has not been utilized for the purchase of
weapons!
It was on the basis of such revelation that the
court-martial resorted to sitting in camera and
prohibited the media from further reporting the
proceedings. In the judgment delivered yesterday
the court-martial refused to consider the evidence
led in court and convicted 54 of the soldiers for
having the temerity to ask for weapons to carry
out the task of defending the territorial integrity of
the nation. Since the soldiers were justified in
refusing to commit suicide the verdict which is
characterized by gross miscarriage of justice will
not stand. Apart from the fact that the Prosecution
did not lead any scintilla of evidence to prove the
2-count charge of conspiracy and mutiny against
any of the convicts the Court-martial did not
consider the defence of the soldiers in any material
particular.
Convinced that soldiers who made a legitimate
demand for equipment to fight the insurgents
cannot, by any stretch of imagination, be properly
convicted for mutiny we shall take all necessary
legal measures to prevent the army authorities
from giving effect to the genocidal verdict of the
court-martial. We submit that the oath of allegiance
taken by the accused soldiers is not a license to
commit suicide. It is a solemn undertaking to
defend the nation based on the expectation that the
Federal Government would have complied with
Section 217 of the Constitution on the mandatory
requirement to equip the armed forces adequately.
It is important to state that when equipment was
made available on 18 August 2014, the accused
soldiers fought gallantly.

Following the news that an aide to Borno State
Governor Kashim Shettima and associate of
Australian hostage negotiator Stephen Davis was
arrested by Nigeria's State Security Service (SSS)
for alleged ties to Boko Haram, the state
governor's office has today spoken out, blaming
the governor's predecessor, Ali Modu Sheriff, for
appointing the aide.

Alhaji Junaid Idrissa Khadi was one of seven
persons arrested by the SSS, which claimed that
the Borno governor's aide was part of a plot
engineered by Davis to slander Ali Modu Sheriff
and Lt. Gen. Azubuike Ihejirika (rtd.), by
indicting them as Boko Haram sponsors.
Initially hesitant to address Khadi's arrest,
Governor Shettima stated today that it was in fact
Ali Modu Sheriff who initially appointed the aide
during his tenure and pleaded that he be retained
after he left office.
"While it is not the tradition of
Governor Kashim Shettima of Borno State to join
issues with security agencies as he holds each of
them in high esteem, we are concerned about an
insinuation concerning the status of Khadi who was
presented as an aide to
Governor Kashim Shettima. We don't want to
question the integrity of the security agency
involved and hence can not outrightly allege
political motive to bring Governor Shettima’s image
to disrepute," a statement released by the
governor's office said today.
"Khadi is known to be an associate of Ex-Governor
Ali Modu Sheriff. It was Sheriff as Governor
of Borno State that first appointed Khadi in 2010 as
one of his Special Advisers without known
designation given the fact most advisers under
Sheriff as Governor, had no clear jurisdiction.
When Shettima succeeded Sheriff as Governor in
2011, he appointed his advisers without Khadi.
Sheriff persistently requested
that Shettima appoint Khadi as an Adviser in
charge of Religious Affairs which Shettima later
accepted in 2013, two years after other Advisers
were already in office," the document furthered.
While expressing deep respect for the SSS and
other involved security agencies, the governor
encouraged them to treat Khadi in the same
manner other arrested Nigerians are subject to.
Davis had previously criticized the weak response
of Governor Shettima to Khadi's case, claiming the
current governor expressed reluctance out of fear
of the SSS and Modu Sheriff.
Read the full release below.
Khadi was first appointed by Ex-Governor Ali Modu
Sheriff in 2010, he was retained by Governor
Shettima in 2011 on Sheriff's request
I am compelled to respond to enquiries by the
media following the display of Alhaji Junaid Idrissa
Khadi by a security agency today after he was said
to have been arrested by the agency.
While it is not the tradition of Governor Kashim
Shettima of Borno State to join issues with security
agencies as he holds each of them in high esteem,
we are concerned about an insinuation concerning
the status of Khadi who was presented as an aide
to Governor Kashim Shettima. We don't want to
question the integrity of the security agency
involved and hence can not outrightly allege
political motive to bring Governor Shettima’s image
to disrepute.
First, let it be noted that our clarification here is not
intended to pronounce Khadi guilty of whatever
reasons that led to his arrest. The clarification is
simply to put the records in their proper
perspective.
Alhaji Junaid Idrissa Khadi was a Special Adviser
to Governor Kashim Shettima following his
appointment in 2013 on the insistence of Ex-
Governor Ali Modu Sheriff who at that time, had the
listening ears of his successor, Governor Shettima.
Khadi is known to be an associate of Ex-Governor
Ali Modu Sheriff. It was Sheriff as Governor of
Borno State that first appointed Khadi in 2010 as
one of his Special Advisers without known
designation given the fact most advisers under
Sheriff as Governor, had no clear jurisdiction.
When Shettima succeeded Sheriff as Governor in
2011, he appointed his advisers without Khadi.
Sheriff persistently requested that Shettima appoint
Khadi as an Adviser in charge of Religious Affairs
which Shettima later accepted in 2013, two years
after other Advisers were already in office. Khadi
as everyone can attest to, remained closer to
Sheriff before he was sacked by Shettima four
months ago when Governor Shettima dissolved his
cabinet, relieving all commissioners, Special
Advisers, Senior Special Assistants and Special
Assistants of their positions to reposition his
administration.
It is important to note that Governor Kashim
Shettima never found Khadi with any questionable
character as at the time he was appointed. If at all
Khadi had any questionable character, such can
only be best known by those he first associated
with before Shettima became a Governor in 2011
or perhaps, those that persistently recommended
him to Shettima for reappointment.
Not withstanding the records put in proper context,
Governor Kashim Shettima expects and he is very
hopeful that the security agency concerned will
accord the fairest hearing to Khadi as it should to
every other Nigerian arrested for whatever reason.
The Governor expects that anyone found guilty of
committing any crime that goes against the
provisions of the Nigerian Constitution and other
existing laws laws be made to face the full wrath of
the law after a competent court pronounces him
guilty with no iota of doubt.
Governor Kashim Shettima is always committed to
the welfare of all good citizens of Borno State and
remains in their defense while at the same time, he
is in strong defense of the provisions of the
Nigerian Constitution which he is under oath to
defend and preserve as a Governor and citizen of
the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
