Default Re: Amnesty For Soldiers Jailed For Life



What is a responsible military to do? Enforce discipline, order and cohesion. That is right, that is how it should be.

Having said that: How is it though, that Nigerian elite who have been and are still ruining our country never get tried, jailed for life, court-marshalled, beheaded, executed and burned?

Why these severest of punishments for these young soldiers? (Yes, I know the law is the law and it is blind) And the military is strict etc

But when was the last time anyone was strict in Nigeria with Ibrahim Babangida or the former governor of Edo state Lucky Igbinedion or Orji Kalu, or Joshua Chibi Dariye, etc?

These soldier committed mutiny and or treasonable felony OK, but 80% of the former governors of Nigeria's thirty-six states were to face trial as soon as they vacated office in 2007 upon losing their so-called immunity aka impunity!

Why is the brutalities of laws in Nigeria always reserved for the weakest among our citizenry?
