Shattap that your dirty gutter you called mouth.
Did I say they were executed secretly ? undecided

How would you know that soldiers are being court marshalled if it wasn't in the news ? Would you be going to govt house everyday to confirm what is happening ?

There was zero outlet of information to the general population and even if you have one, you are better of keeping it to yourself ,you can't confirm anything as people are usually too afraid to speak up lest they should be reported by plain cloth police men that lives amongst them without their knowledge - It was that bad.

Ask your parents let them narrate their ordeal during Buhari's iron fist misrule.The man was insane and power drunk.
the only way to know when a mouth is smelling is when it's open,i guess you should know which mouth should be shot.
Back to topic,i was not a baby when Buhari was ruling,i was well aware of situation around me,It wasn't different from what the press faced during Abacha regime,if everyone was afraid to talk what about the Families of the supposed coup plotter?are they still afraid after GMB left government?

Yea, law is law. They were executed for plotting coup. How about soldiers to be executed for desertion who complained of not having weapons to fight book haRam.

After killing 42 innocent Nigerian soldiers , he attempted to cover up their deaths by threatening Nigerian journalists, but he couldn't threaten New York Times.

Say no to a cold-blooded murderer

masseratti:
please stop saying rubbish,how gagged can the press be?the soldiers has families no matter how it was people would have come out to confirm it,the purpose of shooting coup plotters and announcing it is to deter anyone else, so if your story was true why would they execute secretly.

I need 10 names of the allegedly 40 executed soldiers. I believe we can track down the families and confirm if any of their family members in the army have been missing since the period in question.

P.S: Watch PDP suddenly release an interview/story with the "family" of one of the "Executed" soldiers.

The soldiers erred.. the cause of their actions notwithstanding!!!

Everyone always have a cause for their actions.. A cause they believe is right and just!!!

These coup plotters GMB murdered in 84 probably had an admirable and good cause for their actions.

But it didn't count then.. Why will the cause of the mutineers count today?

It's still the same Nigerian Army and their laws haven't changed that much.


I would not say the weight of action has changed but the atmosphere then and now are different while the coup plotters were motivated by political gain the mutineers only erred due to anger and distrust.

Then it was a military regime the price of failure was most definitely going to be great such was the risk attached to the potential gain.

The mutineers only gain was audience with their CO to provide better equipment to serve the nation right, the price for the desire to serve in a better capacity is much too much.

Either ways killing another man can never be justified irrespective of the crime. Forgiveness and mercy provided by God should be represented in our daily being. I do know the general has learnt and is a better man for it.
