pls tell me who has the responsibility of handling cases like this? also what is it that the military will do to get the killers of the soldiers? how have they handled similar cases in the past and what was the outcome?


Its is not about convention here, i am sure you were not born yesterday, all these years in similar cases who has handled the case If not the military themselves, i am more focus on reality
We all know Nigeria police and Army don't share cordial relationship or synergy that is a limitation that cannot be overlooked
The military has several unit, if they have medical unit, i am sure the military has detectives and an investigation unit, the last event of killing of military in delta state shows the military can improve and be better, the military did well in delta state that is why till now the media/activist have nothing to say

I'm not a fan of the so called IPOB, but most people commenting here are foolish hypocrites.
It's only ontop Igbo matter that they can sustain their erection. They only find their voice once Igbo is involved.
F*CK IPOB
F*CK the fools who support violence in our nation, including the fools who vote in bad leaders because of their ego. Idiots.

which "strong response" is that? have they shown that "strong response" in katsina?

Are you part of the killers of military men in Abia?

Do you want the military to ignore the killing of military men by criminals in Abia?

So Nigeria is so much a failed state that the police can no longer investigate, arrest and prosecute high profile crimes anymore but tag it to a group? So if a person wants to rob a bank in east now they will put on Biafra color and police will run away and say they are UGM or in west dressed like Fulani they will run and say it’s herdsmen or in the north put on long beards like boko haram etc….this is sad that Nigeria is now a failed state under a man the enemies of Nigeria said he built Lagos
don't divert the topic, Ipob killed soldiers, anyone in connection with Ipob, even if you wear their wrist band should be killed, they should kill them real bad that they won't be able to coordinate any attacks on Nigerian soil again. If you qoute me and say rubbish, you should be killed too because you are a legitimate threat and you should be a target.

the question is why does the military always retaliate against civilians in the south but not in the north when a soldier gets killed? why has the military not "retaliated" in Katsina state for this?


How did you know the military don't retaliate in the North, are you there or do you follow them around

Mind you the huge difference between North and South is media, if pin drop in the south the whole world will hear it, so many things happen in the North unreported.
Did you not hear the news of military jet mistakenly wiping out a community in north mistaken them for terrorists But life went on as if nothing happened, such can't happen in the South be rational in reasoning

RIP TO THE ARMY MEN WHO LOST THEIR LIVES TO THIS USELESS STRUGGLE IN THE EAST.

BUT ON THE SECOND NOTE,

WHO ARE THE MILITARY TARGETING IN ABA?

WHY COMING TO SHUT THE MARKETS, ARE THE MARKET MEN AND WOMEN STRUGGLING IN ABA THE PEOPLE THAT KILLED THE ARMY MEN?

I BELIEVE THAT THE MILITARY SHOULD GO AFTER THE IDIOTS WHO KILLED THEIR PEOPLE BUT THE GENERALITIES OF THE PEOPLE IN ABA SHOULD NOT SUFFER AND REMEMBER THAT MOST OF THESE MARKET PEOPLE ARE ALREADY VICTIMS OF THESE UNKNOWN GUN MEN.

IF YOU ARE NOT SUPPORTING ISRAEL WITH THEIR INVASION BECAUSE OF SOME ISRAELITES KILLED BY HAMAS , THEN WHY ARE YOU SUPPORTING THE MILITARY TO SUFFER ABA PEOPLE IN GENERAL BECAUSE OF THIS KILLING?

It's not a useless struggle.. Your post is a useless post


You are all dummies what you did there is a false equivocation.. Just have to tell you that..

Go back to primary school or at least stop trying to miseducate us.

Unknown gunman spotted. Your days are numbered.

I expect the usual noise and dumb talks about the military flexing power on innocent Nigerians.
You support Isreal killing innocent civilians claiming they harbor terrorists but have a probelm with Nigerian army when they are hunting for terrorists harbored by "biafrans".

You claim the military only flex muscles with civilians yet when the military come out in force, you wouldn't spot one terrorist. All they know how to do is to come out in numbers and ambush a check point they run and hide in the bush.

Many of you can sleep and wake up in your house because of the same military men you come online to bash. Yes, they have their excesses but without them, many of you will be in IDP camps!
I'm finding it hard to determine who's dumber between you and the guy you quoted.

But comparing the IPOB situation to the Israeli-Hamas war makes you take the crown as the dumbest idiot of the year in Nairaland.

You must be a big Fool, the UGM always ambush the arm or police they always choose the place and time to strike ... thats what cowards do
UGM attack n run into the bush or hide behind the people sounds more like a loser/coward Operandi
IF biafra Men are not coward let dem pick a date with the military, lets affirm who the coward is
....

They should be ready to repel or counter an attack that's what they are trained for, not to reinforce and start harassing innocent civilians after their butts are been wiped.

If they can't repel an attack or take cover I don't see why they should be blocking our roads with empty drums and sand filled in sacks..

The Nigerian military are just bunch of sissies that can be easily be defeat by any armed group..

That is why they have been fighting boko haram for a decade plus now.

Let your brave ugm come out now and face the army. Or the ogogoro ragtag bandits can only hide behind civilians?
....

Why didn't your military reinforce and attack on the 30th when they were beaten?

According to the video online those gun men operated for more than 20/30min why didn't your military ambush them?


The cowards have to wait for 48hrs to start laying siege on civilians..

I am ashamed that you know how to put English together but still can't logically put some things into perspective. Just as nigerian military is failing to understand that using exccessive force would make some people determinie to attack again. We are not too far from a failed state, and to win this war nigerian army needs the support of the people..

Boko haram Spiral out of control because of this kind tactics. Today we still do not know who are sponsoring herdsmen and unknown gunmen. If they are failing to invest money in intelligence gathering, we might wake up one day in an upside down Nigeria.

My point is this: we can't be punishing the innocent because of the wrong some people whom don't represent them. This gorilla styled approach would make people hate them the more. Remember empire didn't not fall in one day!

You just made no fuckin sense.... If these gumen hide in the bush why haven't they tracked them to it

Most of you are really foolish.... This eastern issue started from the powers assigned to curb it.... When the complaints were loud 6-7 years ago about the intentional and willful ignorance of the rise of this group.... Everyone appeared deaf.... Just the boko HARAM came into play, so also are the gunmen..... It's unfortunate they are now in the dimension of
Guerrilla warfare.... Something am afraid will overrun the military
