Buhari To Kickstart Punishment Of The Armed Forces For Violating Human Rights by Nobody: 12:43pm On Sep 12, 2015 |
![]() Nigeria’s president, Muhammadu Buhari, reaffirmed his administration’s total commitment to the rule of law and warned that proven acts of human rights violation by the Armed Forces will be punished under his leadership. Addressing officers, troops and newly commissioned cadets on Saturday in Kaduna State at the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA), Buhari reminded them that the rule of law applied to the Armed Forces as much as any other institution in the country. “I wish to remind you of the Federal Government’s commitment to overhaul the rules of engagement and improve operational and legal mechanisms so that disciplinary steps are taken against proven human rights violations by the armed forces. “We are committed to a thorough investigation of recent and any future occurrences of human rights violations by elements of our Armed Forces. “While I applaud the integrity and sterling record of the Armed Forces as an institution, this administration will insist on the rule of law, and deal with any proven cases of deviation from laws of armed conflict, including human rights abuses. “In operational conduct Nigerians expect our Armed Forces to keep law and order, and not to behave like bullies. “Let me reiterate this administration’s commitment to due process, merit and total observance of the rule of law as central pillars of a prosperous and democratic society. “Rule of law as an element of good governance applies to the Armed Forces as much as any institution in our country. It is therefore gratifying that all three Services have recently taken steps to emphasize strict adherence to rules in recruitment, promotions, procurement, project executions and civil-military relations,” the President said at the passing out of Officer Cadets of the NDA’s 62 Regular Course and Short Service Course 43. Observing that security remains the most important challenge in his Administration’s “Change” Programme, President Buhari said that the nation expects exemplary conduct and professionalism from officers and men of its Armed Forces at all times and in all situations. “The objectives our fight against terrorism cannot be realized without a credible and effective military. You must avoid any behavior that will tarnish your honour and dignity as commissioned officers. “Your commitment and loyalty to the Armed Forces and the nation must be total. I urge you to take your roles in the on-going process of rebuilding our Armed Forces very seriously,” President Buhari told the newly-commissioned officers. Declaring that the Federal Government was pleased with the Armed Forces’ resolve to end the insurgency facing the country once and for all, President Buhari assured them of his Administration’s determination to ensure the speedy provision of platforms and equipment they require to win the war against terrorism and meet their long term needs. http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2015/09/12/boko-haram-buhari-lauds-armed-forces-warns-that-human-rights-abuses-will-be-punished/ 4 Likes |

I wanted to ask whose side is Buhari on, but I guess most of us already know. Boko haram would gain more from this than anybody. Very soon Buhari is going to make it illegal to shoot Boko haram members in case it violates their human rights? Buhari's election victory was god sent to boko haram movement. 32 Likes 5 Shares |

Not particularly impressed. How does he hope to accomplish it? 1)how will human right abuses be reported? 2)which body would be responsible for receiving such report? 3)who would investigate and how will investigations be done? 4)what are the laid down rules of engagement between civilians and members of the armed forces? Buhari should tackle these issues properly before making assurances 2 Likes |

[size=14pt]General Boko Hari who Boko Haram named as their representative wants to exact revenge on those who stopped Boko Haram members from murdering people. If you remember well Boko Haram named GMB as their intermediary and GMB asked to stop killing Boko Haram members. But He never asked Boko Haram to stop murdering. [/size] ![]()
[size=14pt] Then this same GMB once he got into office asked the Army to stop manning check points so that Boko Haram can freely move around and murder.[/size] President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday ordered the removal of all military checkpoints set up in the wake of Boko Haram activities across the country.[size=14pt] Then only last week GMB's govt ordered the release and rewarding of Boko Haram suspects [/size] [img]http://i1.wp.com/ynaija.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/suspects3.jpg?zoom=1.5&resize=640%2C423[/img] [img]http://i1.wp.com/ynaija.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/suspects6.jpg?zoom=1.5&resize=640%2C423[/img] The Nigerian Army on Wednesday released 128 detainees after certifying that they had no link with the Boko Haram terrorists group in Borno.[size=13pt] UNA DON PUT BOKO HARAM INTERMEDIARY AS UNA PRESIDENT!
