Oh, it it? Tie up and kill prisoners of war execution style? And then you cry when you aren't sold weapons because of your lack of discipline and bad human rights record?

Dead terrorist scum, that's a breath of fresh air. cool cool

No dignity in making the terrorist a guest of the state. Did he give the little kids he killed that option?

For your information, the Geneva convention does not apply to terrorists.

Measures to counter terrorism MUST be proportionate.

Tying up prisoners of war and executing them is NOT proportionate.

It is cowardly and undisciplined.

Please educate us why it is not cowardly and undisciplined to execute captured prisoners.

Geneva convention doesn't apply to terrorists.

Terrorists don't obey United Nations laws of war.

Different countries make different local laws against terrorism, some have death sentence, so when a terrorist is captured he is treated as a murderer and sentenced to death after capture. New British and Canadian laws enacted in 2014 and 2015 say suspected terrorists will have their fully legitimate citizenship cancelled and will no longer be British or Canadian citizens even if they are born and bred in those countries

Captured prisoners sometimes try to run away and escape, they get shot in the process as allowed in war under UN convention. Anyway UN convention does not apply to terrorist, they are under civilian criminal law for murder.

No - my question is simple:

How is this not cowardly?

"A Reuters reporter with knowledge of Maiduguri was able to verify the location of the photo as the Bama road, leading southeast out of the city, near the University of Maiduguri.

Election campaign posters of Borno state governor Kashim Shettima hanging from street lights indicate it was taken recently. The lights, notable for their ornate ironwork, were only installed last year.

How is the convention relevant to the question of cowardice?

How does it prove that the undisciplined execution of prisoners is "well calculated".

The convention is irrelevant and is a straw man. Because I didn't even mention it. You did.

You are also the one who said the killings were well calculated. HOW?

The life of a terrorist is worth nothing.

The convention is relevant because Nigeria is a signatory to it. If you can't point out were lives of terrorists are covered by the convention, you cannot accuse the military of any wrong doing.

You said "well calculated". How?

Those lights can be found in any west or central african city, not peculiar to Nigeria.

There neither proof that the poster is that of the governor.

The writings on sign posts and plate numbers do not match with what is obtainable on Nigerian roads.

The Boko terrorist who surrendered to Nigerian army is the only coward we see here, if he had courage, he should have fought to death according to Jihadist faith and principles. He seems to be as cowardly as a normal SANDF elite paratrooper like we saw in Bangui

Even worse. A terrorist surrendered and was executed notwithstanding? How pathetic can Nigerian soldiers be?

An army known for running from the enemy and which is currently receiving help from foreigners finds joy in executing captured opponents. Pathetic.

And while you are at that, tell us how on earth that is not an election poster of the state governor.
