Concerning your post, the one to which I responded not so mildly, I didn't know you were merely having a banter with the others; I thought you were genuinely threatening them. That made me incandescent to the point of leaving such a harsh response (Once again I must apologise for that). I'm not the kind to get into arguments or into a pissing contest with anyone, but I detest oppression. But if we are to have a civil discussion about the matter at hand, I would suggest that you represent yourself: speak for yourself alone and not all soldiers. I do not know you, so you might be as disciplined and responsible as you claim - but that does not apply to every one of your colleagues.

For instance, I am a bodyguard, and I have done that for the past 5 years (in Hubei, China). I'm very good at what I do, which is why my client has refused to let me go. But that being said, I cannot vouch for other bodyguards, just because it's my profession. I understand the concept of espirit de corps you earlier mentioned, but that does not change the character that INDIVIDUAL people have. A lot of people are bad and uncultured, and joining the army does not make them better. I reacted to the first post (the one refuting claims that soldiers did this and that) because I know what soldiers can be like. Like I said earlier, you may be a stand up guy, but you cannot claim the same applies to your mates or your group as a whole.

What are you saying?? I was there when the same 'respectable' military men, of whom you so loftily speak, raided the Ojuelegba police barracks a few years ago! What of the MANY cases of soldiers manhandling powerless civilians? Tell me - who else would have opened fire on the policemen?? Stop being silly, please. You soldiers act like you are above the law and superior to civilians (most of you). Have you ever seen a soldier (esp army officer) resolve a matter in a decent and civil manner?? It must always be gra gra. I would like to see how such a person channels his agression in an advanced country.

Listen to me you little fcuker.. you cannot come here to start threatening people, ok! This is an online community and you will not come here to stifle communication. People are free to say what they like and if it offends you, stay away from here. Look at you sef. I wonder what your rank is even. Because you don go NDA person nor go fit hear word again. What I want to know is what you can do by yourself, without the support of your mates. Walk around like you rule the world, but you are nothing - you are nobody. You are just a low-rankiing officer who is a lowlife and all you do is take orders from your many superiors. Na where civilians dey una dey get mouth. Even common recruit go dey threaten everybody. I pity you. If you talk any how on this forum, I will tear you apart..and show you how little you know, how little you're worth and how powerless you are. How many warfronts have you been to? Tell me. How many life-threatening situations have you been in? Take your time. Don't make me make you my personal business. A*#S
