Speaking with Premium Times, the Nigerian Army spokesperson, Olajide Olaleye, blamed area boys for the attack.
"It’s not true that the soldiers destroyed buses or set any bus on fire. What happened was that a BRT bus knocked down a soldier and killed him. As usual in Lagos, area boys gathered and a few soldiers stopped at the scene as well. The GOC has dispatched military policemen to the scene to help restore law and order,” Mr. Olaleye said.Lol. Blame it on the area boys when there's photo evidence. 6 BRT buses and 3 other cars were burnt after the soldier's rampage this morning. Even a woman soldier waka join inside...continue...

What a lawless country, with lawless security operatives. Smh

ReplyDeleteThe Army authority's response typifies the problem with our dear Nigeria! They lie shamelessly thinking that people are fools...while do they all think and act like zombies? They should be told that the era of military recklessness is over. Their mates are in Maiduguri and here they disturbing the public peace. Lagos State Government must take real action.

ReplyDeleteNext.......n
ReplyDeleteIts a BLOODY LIE!!! I live at palmgroove and I saw everything. The army men caused total Mayhem this morning, throwing stones at the Brt buses and people waiting for buses also, flogging people around or trying to take pictures. The police came just watched and left (I don't even know who is more shameless. Meanwhile it was rumoured that the Army man was still alive and called on his army colleagues. Instead of them taking him for medical attention, they decide to use it as an opportunity to vandalize Lagos Property and the passers-by.
ReplyDeleteThey made me go late to work as the whole road was blocked. Useless so-called Military men and women. Yes there were women there too. SMH for the forces in my Country Nigeria, the thing that pains me more is that there is still Boko Haram in the North, bombing and the army are here exercising their power on civilians. SHAME!!! SHAME!!! SHAME!!!
Its quite unfortunate that the soldier died but I think it was an accident. Let's not blame the spokesperson. They are just saying what they have being told in the office.
ReplyDeleteChai...! Officer you can lie Ooº°˚˚°ÂºoO! (Mr Empero)
ReplyDeleteWhat do u xpect
ReplyDeleteChaiiii....... There is God ohhhh
ReplyDeleteNow they av changed d story. Bloody soldiers
Hmmmmm!!! This is becoming so dishearthning as the military are now on the street of Nigeria. This is the outcome of what our so call politician has done to us in this country. I pray that the military will not take over power again in This country. All this guys(soldiers) are seeing what the politicians who make use of them are doing and the fund embessled by them on daily basis. GEJ has brought the soildeirs from the baracks to the street. they were used against Nigerian at Ojota during the fuel subsidy on different occassion for selfish interest, this is not too good for us in this country. Soldiers need to go back to the baracks.
ReplyDelete"Zombie way na one way" Why engaged in destruction instead of making peace?
ReplyDeleteLol.d woman really waka join.u can imagine.Area boys dne suffer.pushing faults to d boys nw wen there is evidence.dem nor even sabi lie.6BRT buses?dey r so heartless

ReplyDeleteThis is a show of shame. This olajide is nothing but Satan. In all this unruly behaviour he could still come out to make such speak. May God forgive u. Animal. Is it same area boys dat got the security man beaten u. Answer.
ReplyDeleteThey arise against the masses but become cowards when the threat arrives
ReplyDeleteThe army has disgrace itself with the press release. Shame on them
ReplyDeleteand jesus wept.
ReplyDeleteLazy nd heartless, shameless Nigerian Soldiers, their strength nd power is only on the defenseless civilians. If they born them well let them go to SAMBOSA FOREST, then we will all know that they are confirmed warriors, not using their strength on the innocent citizens. Shame, shame. Bt theris God wooh

ReplyDeleteAll Lies from the Army. Its a shame. A highly respected and disciplined Nigerian Army have lost it. They cant even display the kind of bravely they showed this morning towards tackling the BH menace. Was trapped all day on the way due to their madness. God watches everyone. Soldier or none Soldier.

Chei! Nigerians can deny,why can't he just accept n deal with d soldiers involve?na wa o
ReplyDeletedon't mind dem, I was der masef, soldiers vandalized d vehicles demselfs. no area boy was involved
ReplyDeleteThis country is something else....this man is a very poor lair.....every one knows that military caused the damage.
ReplyDelete''Lol. Blame it on the area boys when there's photo evidence''
ReplyDeleteLinda, pls provide the photo evidence mentioned above
Thats why we will never move forward, everyone involved in govt just tells lies,chai!
ReplyDeleteI presume there is no Dignity in the Nigerian Soldiers with what was experienced today at the Ikorodu Road today, we don't even trust the safety mandate in the hands of the Nigerian Army over the peace of the Nation. We are disappointed with level of immaturity of take into arson and peace disruption on an issue that should bring about proper justification and a befitting burial to the unfortunate soldier kill by accident. #employpragmaticapproach
ReplyDeleteThey are right...... What's the difference between the soldiers and area boys. The latter might even do better dealing with BH.
ReplyDeleteShameless liars, lawless country, stupid men in uniform........diaris Godoooooooo.
ReplyDeleteSavages!!
ReplyDeleteArea boys kwa???Didn't they see the pictures all over,what's the point lying???
ReplyDeleteI know they will deny their action. Pretex4luv@yahoo.com
ReplyDelete#Tongue in cheek
ReplyDeleteNooooooo my people. Olaleye is not lying......it was 'area boys' and not 'soldiers' that carried out the wanton destruction of public property. Despite obvious evidence to the contrary. The default position is to open that foul mouth and vomit original opata!
Ignorant things not fit to be called humans!
God punish your mouth unto 10 generations!
There's evidence to back it up that soldiers are the bedrock of that senseless act.
ReplyDeleteBORN TO SHINE!!!!
So what abt the soldier that was killed? Buses burnt but i think the state government and its cohorts so get to work to harness people dying from the recklessness of commercial bus drivers on our streets.
ReplyDeleteThe soldiers have reacted just the way civilians would if in their shoes. We see these things everyday... #buk****
See their face like Lynus..
ReplyDeleteThis and more evidence should shown to those blaming miscreants for acts their men perpetuated. As we can see, the female soldier in the picture was only helping to clean the BRT's dirty windscreen.
ReplyDeleteTHEY R INSANE.....LAWLESS NATION

These guys are really daft and that's why they're called 'area boys'. How can you stand and watch yourselves been blamed for any evil act on the streets and not stand up to say 'no, we didn't do this one'! By now you ought to have had your own organised body e.g Area Boys' Association of Nigeria (ABAN)' *Lol* that can speak up for in instances as this. If you had one, the news would have carried a headline such as this: "the Area Boys' Association of Nigeria (ABAN), Onipanu chapter debunks claims by the military authority that its members were responsible for the burning of some BRT buses in the Palmgroove area of Lagos yesterday". How about that? The same military guys you stand on the roads to collect tolls on their behalves at the risk of your own lives (if you even need the life for anything its worth *winks*) blaming you for the evil they perpetrated. Na wa for una ooooo. Get your own association and not rely on NURTW.
ReplyDeleteLol,if dey ar fools dey shud not see odas as fool too,hahahhahaha no be only men army waka cum,chai woman army too.......Mr dumbass go sit down,don't bliv u see d pics b4 lying.
