Soldiers Should Wear Mufti To Avoid Police Attack – Gen. Buratai by blogger4: 6:33pm On Aug 12, 2019 |
The Chief of Army Staff, Lt-Gen. Tukur Buratai, has ordered traveling officers and men to wear plain clothes [mufti] while traveling across Nigeria. This is as Buratai accused the Force Headquarters of making “inciting and inflammatory comments” following soldiers’ killing of three policemen and a civilian in Taraba after they had effected the arrest of a notorious kidnap kingpin, Alhaji Hamisu Bala Wadume, who is now on the run. Buratai’s order which leaked to the media on Monday was contained in a circular with reference number: AHQDAIOPS/G3/240/232, and copied to Army formations nationwide. According to New Telegraph, the letter signed by Brig. Gen. F. Omoigui, on behalf of the COAS, was entitled: “Need for troops to be circumspect in dealing with members of the Nigeria Police.” Buratai directed soldiers on internal security (IS) operations across the country to be circumspect, alerting of the likelihood of aggression towards troops by police personnel. He said Police statements and reactions had the potential of forcing the rank and file of its personnel to “exhibit aggressive tendencies against NA (Nigerian Army) personnel.”. Buratai, in the circular, told soldiers to travel in mufti to avoid possible attacks by policemen, which he argued, may be occasioned by the Police’s comments on both social and traditional media. Soldiers of the 93 Battalion had shot d**d the IRT operatives – Inspector Mark Ediale, Sergeant Usman Danzumi, and Sergeant Dahiru Musa. The Army claimed they were shot after being mistaken for “suspected kidnappers”. Firing back, Force spokesman, DCP Frank Mba, in a strongly-worded statement, said: “The most important question arising from the Nigerian Army Press Release is: Where is Alhaji Hamisu Bala Wadume? Alhaji Hamisu Bala Wadume is a millionaire kidnapper arrested by the Police but paradoxically treated as a ‘‘kidnap victim’’ by the Soldiers and subsequently ‘rescued’ by them. Where is he? Where is the rescued kidnapper? “Secondly, the Press Release was silent on the source of the alleged distress report or identity of the complainant, on the strength of whose report, the Army claimed had informed their decision to engage in the purported chase and rescue operation. Needless to state that in the true spirit of transparency and accountability, the Nigerian Army ought to have arrested the purported distress caller – if any – for obviously and deliberately furnishing them with false and misleading information. Besides, such arrest should in fact be made public! “Thirdly, it is not true that the Policemen failed to identify themselves as alleged in the Press Release. The video on the incident, now viral, READ MORE: https://odinceblog.com/soldiers-should-wear-mufti-to-avoid-police-attack-gen-buratai/

On a good day, police will finish a soldier. Soldiers are generally illiterate and less exposed. Am average police man is Street wise. The police have been ignoring these khaki boys because they never get any support from their own bosses rather they are blamed, sacked or jailed. Unlike soldiers that are protected by their own even though they are wrong. It is only naval and airforce officers that do not tolerate any form of indiscipline among their personnel and that is why you would hardly hear any case of airforce or navy clashing with the police. 1 Like |

Honestly, when it comes to peacekeeping, men of the Nigerian police are more trusted than that of the army. During the Jos crisis and in Southern Kaduna, the indigenous people welcomed police presence with open arms than the Sunni army that sides with the Fulani. Although the police are terrible in mounting road checks and blocks as they just use it to extort money, they are far far more reliable as peace and law arbitrators than the useless army that always without fail side with the Fulani terrorists. 2 Likes |
