War in the camp of the enemies of Nigerians

UnitedFront:


Army's headquarters said that the police vehicle didn't stop when they were flagged down and that was why soldiers opened fire on them. Okay. But why wasn't the suspect killed or injured since army claimed that soldiers shot the car occupants? Where is he now that we know that soldiers thought that the suspect was actually a victim of kidnapping?

maasoap:


You missed the part where it was reported that police station in the area documented their operation within the area? If they didn't inform others, how was the suspect release to them? Oh, you went with the army side of covered up story. Or, you expected them to radio every road block on the road. How is that even possible?



You're a confirmed morron if you ever believed that part. They didn't stop but somehow, the bullets didn't hit the suspect who was in the same car that refused to stop. Anyone can be lied to, but you have capacity to use your brain in analysing the information before you.



Firstly, they didn't stop. Secondly, they fired at friendly force? How many casualties were recorded by the friendly force since you believed that police opened the fire first? How many were injured? None?



Shove your rip up your yansh.

BTW: what would you say if the outcome of the investigation reveals that army headquarters actually lied? Will you come back here and announce to the world that you failed to make use of your brain when you were lied to?

nwaguy01:
See as NPF they cry
E no concern me shaa...if to say nah sarz them kill like dis...e for bettr

Nonsense country

adetem:
according to the first report, they did not sit... 3 check point far. If they stop at the check point and it happened this way then I will believe that soldiers intentionally kill them but not... Is just like police did something secret about their assignments, it's right but they should have inform the friendly force most especially the route they follow. Very important sir.

adetem:
and you also get dull brain to believe everything police published, me trust police? Maybe if they change their uniform to better colour.... Nigeria police can lie for Africa...


Don't forget soldiers train and good in handling weapons more than any other security agencies, if u no see any soldier kill or injured e dey happen like that... So sit ur ass down and remember what happen in damaturu years back between soldiers and police... No soldier killed or injure but police die like fly. Get sense, police go fire you now now and deny. Later una go start #endsars #endpolice. Nonsense.

maasoap:


Ordinary Boko Haram are killing them like fowls. Nothing professional about the Nigeria soldiers, they are barbarians who are equally corrupt just like the rest of the society. The same soldiers killed four police officers in uniforms at Badagry under Jonathan, using stones to crush their heads.
Where is the suspect (victim) that they claimed they rescued? Or, you want to tell me that your "professionals" allowed the victim to go just like! Without documentation, without debriefing? After killing four citizens just to rescue him? You're too dull for my liking, kid.
The panel will be constituted as directed by the president and I hope that when the truth comes out, you will bold to accept that you didn't use your brain properly.

ernieboy:
so where is the suspect now? besides did you read where it was said that they were shot in close range?

RichDad1:

Did you read the news at all?
It was documented that they made all the necessary briefings from the state command to the local police station based on standard operational procedure.

adetem:
about close range shot only an eyewitness can make that statement that I will believe sir, forget about army or police statement. Police will lie toh cover up likewise army, but if the panel that president give order to investigate can go there interrogate those soldiers and those policemen that survived and still on treatment it would bring a better information than army and police statement. I pray the panel should also go to the small small village around the place the incident happen, they see 3, 4 or more villagers that may withnes it.

About the police claim suspect and army claim victim; if you read the very first news or report from both police and army, police claim 2 people are missing and army claim some of them inside the vehicle escape with gun shot wound according to the report... So maybe the suspect is among them.

gurunlocker:
Oga o... which kind country be this?


Even the security agencies dey fight each other

ernieboy:
oga identifying close range shots is not difficult it can easily be identified thru the exit wound if a bullet, a doctor can easily identify this.

adetem:
and when the panel finished and the outcome show police get fault then u will pick that ur sense u drop inside dustbin... U claim that ordinary Boko Haram are killing soldiers like fowl, I pray God forgive you for not using the brain He gave you well... Wawa why police did not finish what they start, police are the beginning of boko Haram, it's police fault right from day 1, if you don't have sense or u are misusing that ur dirty sense let me int u smal, the issue about Boko haram the police suppose to deal with it in well manner turn and become boko Haram. for your ignorance and dirty brain soldiers fight boko haram are risking their life than your police brother infact if not soldiers that you claim they die like fowl, I strongly bliv boko haram would have capture your place and be have sex with my sisters by now mumu.

After seeing the Arabic writeup in our military logo(bearing in mind that we re neither Arab nor muslim nation) I gave up on one Nigeria.... And yes fg will do nothing because it's northern affair

maasoap:


And be giving your mother doggy

Spechialone:
The claim of been "suspected kidnappers", is an insult to the Families of the deceased, and The Nigerian Police Force as a whole

CodeTemplar:
@naptu, And do you think that vernacular is proper? That's trash.

jamalah:
When I was a little boy growing up in the ancient city of kano, attending quranic school or makarantar allo, I, together with my peers hold anything written in Arabic as sacred. In our ignorance and naivety, we regard anything written with Arabic alphabets as 'sunan Allah' or the name of God. If walking along the street one saw a paper flying around with Arabic written on it even if it were a mere instruction manual we run after it and saved it from falling into impurity. Frankly speaking we can not differentiate between the words of the sacred Qur'an and ordinary words of Arabic.

jamalah:
When i was in Egypt my, Arab friends will marvel at the fact that i can recite a large portion of the qur'an off head but can not understand arabic language. i tell them that i learnt it by rote just like the way we sing Indian songs without understanding a sentence of Hindi.

Tobiloba2407:


the police have become a victim of what they do to civilians on a daily bases at checkpoints....but its sad, im quite sure the officers and soldiers, are in detention , if the kidnappers hasn't escaped, no one would blame them, but the suspect escaping smells fishy and the army guys have something to cover.....but the police ought to have identified themselves too, even military officers most times offer their car papers and allow their boots to be checked.....without telling you, they are officers....you cant be bigger than the law, another question is who shot first, when the police saw they were being chased, why didnt they park and send one unarmed personnel to liaise and apologize to the soldiers, which is less threatening....the police invited mayhem on themselves......but army, how did the kidnappers escape and how come only the policemen were shot?

There is a gap in the primary school education in Nigeria and this has produced hilarious, strange and dangerous consequences.


Nigerians are taught that there are different kinds of numerals and we are specifically taught the Arabic (1, 2, 3) and Roman numerals (I, II, III, IV).

However, most Nigerians are not taught that there are different kinds of scripts and this is the problem.


Many Nigerian communities were reading and writing before the arrival of European colonialists. Arabic was being taught in many Islamic schools in northern Nigeria and by the 1700s the Hausa had developed a system for writing the Hausa Language using Arabic script.


The word Ajami refers to the use of Arabic script to write African languages. African languages like Hausa, Swahili and Yoruba were written by using the Arabic script.


An example of famous text that were written through the use of Ajami script are the letters written by El Kanemi of the Kanem Bornu Empire to Sultan Bello of the Sokoto Caliphate in 1824.


Hausa is one of the languages mentioned in section 55 of the Nigerian constitution and therefore it is recognised by the Nigerian constitution. The motto is in Hausa language because of the origin of the Nigerian Army. The Army was initially known as "Glover's Hausas".


When Governor Glover assembled the Glover's Hausas in 1863, Hausa was written using Arabic script and so the motto, "Victory Is From God Alone" was written in Hausa, using Arabic script.

Aliko Dangote's great-grandfather, Alhassan Dantata could understand a little bit of English (just enough for him to be able to transact business with the British), didn't understand any Arabic (although he learned the Quran by rote), but he could read and write Hausa very well using Ajami script.

Here's an example that illustrates the point. We all know that Hyundai is a famous Korean car maker. I just wrote Hyundai by using latin script, yet the word Hyundai does not mean anything in English, French, Spanish, Portuguese or Italian (the main languages that use latin script).

Yet the word "Hyundai" did not magically change into an English, French, Spanish, Portuguese or Italian word just because I wrote it using Latin script. That's because there's a difference between a language and the script or characters with which it is written.

Similarly, the text on the logo of the Nigerian Army and also the texts on the Nigerian Naira, do not magically change into Arabic words because they are written using Arabic script.

Nigerian Naira? Yes! One of the characteristics of currency is that it should be easily identifiable by users. Therefore, the value of naira notes and kobo coins are written in numbers on the body of the coin or note, the value is also written in words in the English Language and it is also written in Hausa using Ajami script.

The size of the notes and weight of the coins are also slightly different, so that blind people can easily tell the value of the coin or note by feeling them.

Why are the value of naira notes and kobo coins written in Ajami? Well, the Hausa Language has been written in Ajami since the 1700s and it was not until the 1930s that the British introduced Boko (that is, Hausa Language that is written using Latin script). Therefore, there are still many people that understand Ajami but do not understand Boko.

Why is the Nigerian Army's motto written in Ajami? It's tradition, just the same way that the British Army's motto is in Latin, "Si vis pacem, para bellum" (Latin for "If you wish for peace, prepare for war" ), despite the fact that it's more than a thousand years since Britain was colonised by the Roman Empire.

This should be very easy to understand, but the problem in Nigeria arises from superstition and lack of proper education.

1) Many Nigerians do not even know that there's anything like Ajami and they believe that those words are from Arabic Language.

2) Many Nigerians cannot separate Arabic Language from Islam.

I need to take a moment to explain this point.

Many Nigerians (both Christians and Muslims) cannot separate the Arabic Language from Islam.

This is also true of Christians. Many Christians in Nigeria do not know that the word Allah simply means God in Arabic and that the word has been used by Arab Christians and Arabs of other faiths long before Prophet Muhammad was born.

In fact, I remember an argument I had with a guy in the 1990s. I told him that Hanan Ashrawi is an Arab Christian and that when she prays in her language she calls God Allah. The guy refused to believe it. In fact, she refused to accept that Hanan Ashrawi is a Christian when in fact she is a Christian!

This is made worse by the kind of superstitious beliefs that many Nigerians have. Some Nigerians believe that there is something sinister or satanic about the writings on the Nigerian currency and on the Nigerian Army's logo, when in actual fact all that those writings say are, "20 Naira", "50 Naira" , "Victory Is From God Alone", etc.
