Nigerian Army Allegedly Frees Soldiers Of ‘Northern Extraction’ Facing Murder, Reabsorbs Them Into Service While Others Remain In Detention In Enugu .


The two soldiers are Pte Usman Shonva and another identified only as Audu.


Two Nigerian soldiers who were being court-martialled in the 82 Division of the Nigerian Army for murder have been freed and re-absorbed into service, multiple military sources have told SaharaReporters.


The two soldiers are Pte Usman Shonva and another identified only as Audu.




While Shonva allegedly shot and killed one of his course mates in Ohoafia, Abia State in 2022, Audu was accused of killing a Togolese national and one other person in Anambra State.



In October 2023, the army authorities had said twenty-five soldiers and an officer were being court-martialled in the 82 Division for various offences.

“The personnel facing the trial are drawn from various formations within the division, whose area of responsibility covers the entire South-East states and Cross River,” General Officer Commanding, 82 Division, Maj. Gen. Hassan Dada had said while inaugurating the court martial in Enugu.





He said the court was necessary to ensure accountability and compliance within the military justice system in pursuant to the Nigerian Armed Forces Act.


The court martial has one Col. Usman Ahmad, as President leading 10 members.





It also has a Judge Advocate, Capt. S.A. Sadiq, to duly advise the panel as the proceedings continued.





The list of the 25 soldiers has been exclusively obtained by SaharaReporters.


According to sources, apart from Shonva and Audu, some soldiers from the Northern region who were charged for arms dealing and other minor offences were also discharged and acquitted while those from other regions with same charges remained in detention.





Shonva is the son of late Lieutenant Colonel Shonva who was the commanding officer of 195 battalion in Damboa, Borno State, before his death


Speaking to SaharaReporters, a Captain aware of the action accused the court martial led by Col. Usman Ahmad of corruption, nepotism and marginalisation.





Another officer, a Lieutenant from the Northern part of the country also kicked against the action of the court martial.

“This is wrong, even though I’m a Muslim and Northerner, I’m against this, it doesn’t speak well at all, why acquitting those from a particular region alone? Even those accused of murder were released but others with minor offences remain in detention, it doesn’t sound well cause we (Northerners) serving over here in the South aren’t safe,” he said.


Also speaking to SaharaReporters, one of the accused soldiers said, “We need to let the whole world know what's going on in the Nigerian military especially the Army. Something bad is currently happening and if no one addresses it, the issue will be bad. Most of my colleagues still serving from Southern part of the country are really fuming and this issue may turn to something else if not properly addressed by the government and Chief of Army Staff, General Lagbaja.

“The army and Nigerian government keep lying to all of us especially people from the Southern part of the country, saying that we are one Nigeria but I bet you, it's all lies.





“I am a one of the soldiers serving under 82 Division in Enugu and currently in detention. Military court martial was scheduled and inaugurated since October last year for 25 of us. Sadly, out of the figure I gave you, they released those capital offenses on religious and tribalism lines.

“A soldier from the North was removed from the court martial after inauguration all because he is from the Northern part of this country. All these are fact. They forgave him automatically and released him. The legal service director here in Enugu and his cohort diverted everything to tribal and religious lines.





“We all from Southern part of Nigeria kept our hope high cause we believed the GOC who during his address while the court was inaugurated said that all accused persons rights won’t be violated and all accused persons have right to fair hearing but reverse was the story.


“In the law, I think murder is the highest capital offense but the director of legal service in the person of Major HY shehu and others discharged and acquitted two soldiers who committed murder. The first person was freed because he is a Muslim and his father was a serving officer before he died in Borno, and that his mother has high blood pressure, isn’t that funny? And one will begin to worry or guess if we don't have mothers, and if our own parents and spouses don’t have blood running in their veins.

“This very soldier I’m telling you about shot and killed his course mate in Ohoafia, Abia state. He deliberately shot and killed him in cold blood but the court martial discharged and acquitted him without any conviction. He is Pte Usman Shonva of 145 battalion, though he is from Taraba state, he was raised in Kaduna state.





“The second accused person killed a Togolese national and one other person in Anambra state. He is from Kebbi state and was discharged and acquitted. He was even granted bail for several weeks before judgement was passed. Guess what? Both are also backed in service.

“Currently, as I’m talking to you, PTE Usman shonva is working under the 82div Provost Group. The second person they released is Audu and he is now an artillery personnel serving under 302 artillery GS Onitsha.”





“Both of them who killed out of all of us were released unconditionally and currently working with same Nigerian Army,” another accused soldier told SaharaReporters.

“However, we soldiers from the Southern extraction are locked up on minor offences and denied bail. And they already told us even as the case is still going on that we shouldn't waste our time, that we should all prepare to go to jail or appeal. Sadly most of us have stayed in military detention for years, no one has been in detention for less than one-year.


“Each time, our lawyers talk and object to some of the fake documents the persecution counsel of the army brings, the martial court judge advocate will admit instantly. The army is mourning dead soldiers and at the same time jailing the innocent ones. The worst part of it is that they don't release court proceedings to our lawyers for one to go for appeal. They keep everything for years. Please kindly help inform the whole world about this evil going on in the army. As I am talking to you I don't know where my wife and kids are. They don't allow them visit us. We have been in the guard room since 2022.

“Check that list, apart from those who killed people, other Northerners with minor offences had been freed as well. I can’t say maybe they were absorbed back but I know one of them, Pte Ali is currently working and in active service.

“What they did was to send some of the Northerners back to the North just to shield them away from being punished. So most are in active service. But one single person from the Southern part wasn’t released, just one person, check that list and see the number of Southerners, yet none was released but over 10 Northerners were freed. No proper medication for we detainees, no feeding.”





He added, “They don't allow us to communicate with our families or allow them to even come see us.”


Also speaking to SaharaReporters, an officer serving in the division said, “Most of them that were in detention, I mean the Northerners were removed. Pte Shonva Usman shot and killed his course mate in cold blood in Abia State around May 2022. He was charged for murder but was discharged and acquitted because he is a Muslim from North, his dad died in service and that his mum has high BP.


“MWO Audu Peni serving in 302artillery GS Onitsha killed a Togolese National during his deployment in a community in Anambra state and was charged for murder and was also discharged and acquitted.





Another Northerner, Pte Ali from Borno state and was arrested with Indian hemp and was also court Martial but they released him after inauguration, and he has resumed work here with us.


“Note that Audu wasn’t on the list you sent to me to confirm because they never wanted to court-martialed him. He was released from detention at Onitsha Anambra state before he was brought on the Inauguration Day.





“He joined up in 82div HQ Enugu after they tried to see if they can maneuver his case but couldn't due to the fear that a letter was raised by the Togolese embassy to the COAS. So they had to do there Abracadabra and let him go. Another soldier from Kaduna state who lost his rifle in Agbani in Enugu was also removed from court and sent back to his unit for summary trial. But none of the Southerners has been released so far. So sad.”

Meanwhile, SaharaReporters’ efforts to get the reaction of the Nigerian Army were unsuccessful, as its spokesperson, Onyema Nwachukwu could not pick his calls as the phone rang out.





A text message also sent to his line was not replied as at the time of this report.

bigman001:
Anybody killed by Israelis are tagged terrorist or hamas, even the babies and children killed where tagged hamas, the world food centre that was killed fews day ago would have been tagged terrorist unfortunately they all came from western and European countries except one . They will learn the hard way , since they believe what ever they do cannot be questioned because they have US backing all their atrocities . Time will tell .

Don't worry Nigeria soldiers will deal with those Israel.

LegendHero:
That’s why I don’t blame anyone.

Anyone with power should use it. The world is a jungle.

Israel can go ahead and kill 10000 children because they have the power.

Nigeria military can level a whole village because they have the power.

Nothing spoil.

So much care for few Palestinians children.(White)


But your Nigeria killed 3 million Igbo kids(black)
which evil people justify

LegendHero:
lol Israel just blow people up and then link them to October 7 attack.

This world is not for the weak. When you are strong, you can do anything you want and you have the justification.

Your Nigeria soldiers does worst

Why are all terrorists Muslim?

[quote author=Haykings100 post=129287841][/quote]I still dey wonder why comment go dey pain a c()w

If you're Igbo you're Igbo,if you're not Igbo,you can never be Igbo.


Igbos are not looking for human resources.



We're very complete.

DatNiggaDaz:
Mr man pls listen. Don't be an hypocrite.

You are not suppose to be here. Leave the Igbos to celebrate their acheivements when no one else will do that in Nigeria or ever do that for them.

The Igbos need to be celebrated in Nigeria. If you can't beat your chest for them, let them do it themselves. It hurts no one.

The hypocrisy I see in you is this..

Why dont you also go to threads where some people always beat their chest when they claim to be named the richest billionaires in Forbes Magazine list

You don't go there to call them tribalists or do you

And again

Now that they have cornered all the appointments in Nigeria & beating their chest as the movers & shakers of Nigeria & the World, do you also see dem as Tribalists or not.


Quit hating & celebrate the acheivements

Typical yoba man for you

Okay

jogojogo:
Later you will jump out of your cage to say you are hated. Who would line a person who has failed to work with his or her brain?
Something happen in Gaza and your hatefilled brain still find a way to express hatred to Nigeria

Boy I am already used to your hatred

Shove your love in your black ass


Point out the lie if what I said is not true.

In the zoo will the officers be punished?

Rossikk:
Maybe if Igbos stopped TRIBALISING the venture, Nigerians could feel some attachment to INNOSON.

Just read their posts on this thread. Pure tribalists.

I was just shaking my head reading their posts.

So off-putting.

When Dangote does something big, do you see Hausa people shouting “Hausa amaka”? “Hausa this”, “Hausa that”?

Never.

In fact the average Hausa man would be offended if you tribalised Dangote to Hausas, and would insist it is a NIGERIAN achievement, not a Hausa one.

So we see Dangote as a Nigerian achievement in a more substantive manner than we do INNOSON.

Igbos amaka really dey pain this people


But Yoruba man shouting Omulabis or whatever is never offence.

Anyway nothing Igbo man do will make una like him,or else he's insulting Igbos you will love him for the moment.


Airpeace that did so many good things for your Nigeria.

We saw how una reach just because his workers wear Isi Agu.

Imagine if he comes out for President

In the zoo called Nigeria,they will be promoted.

Slurity:
You are daft and I am not sorry to say it. I am also Yoruba like him. Things you do without repercussions will not be these same when all eyes are on you. He needed to be arrested and yes to be charged to court.

Don't be sorry because you are the daft one here.

jimmyvic:
Say what you know, Sir.

It is boldly written in the Nigerian Constitution

And the Constitution have been sleeping since?

Deogratiasfx:
Seeing things makes me so excited. Kudos to Innoson.

Every human with good heart will be happy.

We know they are afraid of self rule because they will kill themselves finish like they were doing before amalgamation of Nigeria.

MT:
Now that they have scapegoated him/her, they should make always enforce the laws, ven against the senators, governors etc.

There can not be a set of laws against certain type of people.

That's the problem.



Nigeria laws is for some people.

Truthsandtrusts:
I guess you are among the gays

Come arrest me.

Nigeria government don't have anything against the Yoruba lady.
Is he the only person to have abusing Naira.



They are just punishing her for his way of Life because no law in Nigeria can be used to punish him for that.

Nothing much.

ipobcannibals:
bingo! Ipob/esn under the leadership of hunchback coward, namadi cownu is a terrorist organization. They’re responsible for the killings in the SE and Fulani was never a threat to Igboland

God bless Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

Igbos are daring indeed!

Good bless every Umu Igbo Nile that have good of Igbo land at heart.

oluztx:
The way Igbo men are investing in this harsh economy, you will be wondering where the money is coming from. I've been suspecting God lives in Igboland.

Is God's doing.

God bless every Igbo man hustling out there.





The very good thing is,he's not building it where they will wake up tomorrow and bulldozer it.
