According the eye-witness who sent in the photos, two civilians were allegedly beaten up and a guy who was taking pictures was beaten and his phone smashed on the express road.
Then the soldiers allegedly started vandalizing the buses! According to the source, some soldiers left the express and took big sticks from women cooking by the roadside to break the windows of the buses. Then one of them took stones and allegedly threw it into the crowd twice. Now the whole express is blocked. See more exclusive photos from the chaos after the cut...

Abuse of power you can just imagine what will happen when state police start to function. Nigerian force and government lack respect for human life's they value properties and respect what they eat on present note forgetting the future. Jopeyemi@gmail.com
THEY SHLD BEAT HELL OUT OF THE BRT BUS DRIVERS...
THEY ARE NOT TRAINED AT ALL
Lawless Animals, see where they are showing power. What sort of low lives are in the army? Mtchwww. Sure the stupid bike rider was on the BRT lane....the govt had better Mess them up for good....Fashola what says you? Meanwhile where are the lastma thugs
Nawao they only have strength when they see innocent civilians.
Its quite a pity, those meant to ensure law and order are the once causing chaos.

Soldier's and their mentality.

soldiers and there wahala
why cant this useless soldiers use all that energy in finding boko haram...instead intimidatin the harmless masses to me ooooo they are all Coward...#bringbackourgirls
ONLY IN NIGERIA! Soldiers and Military personnel are not above the law!! Something must be done about this... They should pay for this rubbish.
Pure Madness

Ehhh soldiers and their wahala.They don't joke with one another!
Is brt not to be on its lane? Maybe d soldier enter dia lane..... Nawaaoh! Na em dem de beat pple like dis? Prolly d man died.
hmmm...nkemdirimeverista111@gmail.com
This is serious, d impact was als felt on commercial buses too, i am at yaba waiting for Obalende bus, there re no buses at all, d few ones dt manage to scale thru inflated d price of T/F.
Stopping all BRT buses! Dey must b out of their mind...well daz wot happens to a country without LAW#smh
U see them,always showing themslves wen it comes to matters like dis.Go to Sambisa forest and show dis harsh and damaging self.mke we indeed knw say una be power Mike.rubbish.always trying to intimidate pple
Eeeyah!
Put why would they put law into their own hands.. Eehn!
I usually don't post cos linda u don't post my comments.in fact as a result I stopped.but this news is disturbing so I must comment. these soldiers always do dis rubbish when anything happens to one of them.why are they not in Chibok.why are they not venting their anger on boko haram.boko haram has killed many of them,why didn't they go to those camps to fish out boko haram members?why will they always beat up civilians?why is it that the Government is not doing anything?the soldiers that did this should be brought to book! People should take their photographs and send their shameless faces to all blogs. Our soldiers should be sent to chibok,they should learn how to fight suicide bombers and boko haram and bring sanitity to our great country. Cowards!
Linda this is seriously true, the riot is still on, the soldiers even took one brt along with them, and damaged so many. God dey o.
Na waaa let someone just stout Boko not adding the haram all of them will be seen no more.
Or are soldiers above the law?that's how (in lagos) they and other force members enter buses free of charge..please we need their pictures on blogs! Those that carried sticks to break windscreen,and fight civilians.its so annoying..and most times these so-called soldiers go scot free..Gov Fashola and Gej must do something.send 50 % of the soldiers in nigeria to the north to fight the insurgents
Useless people...if it's to fight boko haram...they will all run away..but to fight defenceless civilian they will be at the peak....
the alleged brt bus broke down since yesterday afternoon nd yet to be towed from the road. The soldier ran into the brt in the middle of the nite around past 2. Ikorodu road is in chaos rite nw
you see, slap one soldier man in less than 10 minutes you have them at your doorsteps in thousands. But go to Maiduguri where there insurgence. Insurgents will operate for hours without a glimpse of any of these bastard called themselves soldiers. They are very good at intimidating civilians!
In fact i will have to trek down to anthony bus stop before i could see bus to ikeja
There are no words to describe the degree of lawlessness in this country. Imagine soldiers doing this in broad daylight. If it were in the United States, they will be court martialed. I feel for their colleague but beating everyone is totally un-called for.
Ha ha even tho ds rubbish
hmmmmmnnnnn, Federal Government dey look for fashola trouble ooo... another court gbege
#FemiFex4PDP .... FEMIFEX@GMAIL.COM
Is there no iota of shame in the Nigerian Military System? Rather than act according to law they take laws into their hands yet they cant curb insurgence in North. Mere civilians are they prey while the REAL EVILS are left..Wow!! What a country
I dnt knw why d ppl assigned for security can turn out to be d ones cusin problems. They act as if dey are unquestionable. I'v experienced a similar circumstance too bside my place at coker
Soldies and thei problems
State of chaos! Federal power...
Soldiers are no nonsense people buh then, they re supposed to protect lives and properties.. Which one is dis one ohh???
Ehhh soldiers and their wahala.They don't joke with one another!
Dey sabi dis one wella...
Naa wa ooooo trouble d trafic wz urge cuz my offix is along dat ikorodu road
F**king lawless country. Those who should be protecting the country are the ones causing the most damage. They be thinking they're above the law. Kmt
Some of d brt drivers are mad man,may God sustain d soldier........shexybabe2010@yahoo.com
Sorry ═Ơ, bt they re nt supposed to go dat length. Pretex4luv@yahoo.com
Very bad!
And the diff btw this and jungle justice is ______?
Make dem go fight Boko Haram. Though some BRT drivers are reckless, this isn't the best way to behave.
Get all the not talked about stories on http://hype9ja.com
Civilization doesn't exist in their dictionary and to think that boys like them are in sambisa bringing them to their knees is a shame.Civilians are always their prey!
Those bastards be acting as if they are gods. Dont blame them it is because of impunity. Only in Africa especially naija such rubbish will happen. All they do is harras innocent unarmed civilians, but when they see boko they take to their heels i sometimes wonder if we are in military or democratic regime
Stupid soldiers instead of them to carry their skills go Sambisa forest #bring back our girls# they are here oppressing the poor civilians. If soldiers wan show muscle make them face boko boys.
Accidents are bonds to happen.just becos they are on uniforms gives them the right to act that way
Chai, never look 4 a soldier trouble and also single girls pls don't marry a soldier ooo ehnn.
I wish they cld display this attitude towards BH that kill hundreds of their colleagues
Good for them, those drivers need a good beat up, those guys drive like Fashola gave them a license to kill Lagosians, was tryna link the express once and the BRT driver almost crushed us on full speed. The reason they have a seperate lane is so they can drive at a reasonable speed uninterrupted and be on time for the next bus stop.
Jungle justice everywhere even soldiers what a same ! May God see d wounded soldier 2ru.
I saw the crushed bike in front of the BRT bus this morning but there wasnt anybody on the floor at that time.
gra gra.. they should send all the soldiers involved in this to Sambisa to go and bring back our girls. Rubbish!
chaiii, must innocent people now suffer?? soldiers...jor o
Lawlessness in Nigeria
I believe the soldiers are venting d anger of their dismissed soldier who was harrassed sum years back by d police 4 plying d BRT LANE.
Nigeria shaa.....
why do soldiers always feel dey r above d law
Let them send these ones to chibok nw, seems they are very strong....nonesense people. Oghetwe@yahoo.com
Nigeria,a very lawless country....I just pray d soldier survive it.
please leave innocent civilians and #bringbackourgirls
ogun orififo ko ni oribibe....this soldiers are turning themselves to somethingelse. must they destroy government properties for us to know that they protesting....smh
How in God's name am I supposed to feel sorry for the dead army now after the stupid displayed by his colleagues. Imagine what a place this would be if we all threw tantrums like that when we lose loved ones. I'm sure some of them night not have known the guy. It just goes to show how lawless this country truly is. Imagine the irony, the people who are supposed to be protecting us. May the man's soul rest in peace, that is if his colleauges will let it.
Soldiers are in lagos flexing their muscles when they are suppose to be maiduguri battling it out with BH. There is God o.
Solders can be so MEAN. Dey dont waste in using dat dere koboko over trivial things. Whether u are innocent or not.... #Annoying
These soldier people sef.
This is d height of lawlessness, what do u expect frm a country who has lost it direction
@linda ikejiofor,the road is still free if only they decide not to stop by and watch what the can't solve
Remind me which country it is...Nigeria. No problem. Shit happens. We will get over it.
Nonentities in uniforms. they are only strong against civilians,ask them to go face boko haram,you then see they are nothing but cowards!!! shame.
Yes ooo linda,I was a witness too! U need 2 see hw d soldiers behaved,tooo bad!
Nonentities in uniforms,they are only strong against civilians. ask them to go and face boko haram and you will see they are just cowards.
What sort of non-sense attitude is this?? in as much as im not in support of the brt bus crushing anybody on the road,its also a clearly stated law in lagos state and an offense for any bike to ply any express road in lagos state irrespective of who u re just to avoid such an occurrence...Soldiers always think they are above the law and they do whatever they like...Most of them even ply on the brt lane which is an offense as well....I stongly frown at this attitude and the lagos state govt should look into this matter..Thank God BRT is owned by the govt....Nonsense ppl...#Angry..
Nawa oo..evri day new drama..................................#KingOfKings
choi!! Linda no be small thing o, God saved many people this morning. I was in that traffic for 2hours, we all had to reverse on the highway and took the service lane, which was not safe too. Most BRT bus drivers are very reckless. One almost bashed me yesterday along Ikorodu road. They always leave their dedicate lanes to join the normal lanes without caution as if they own all the Lagos roads.
Something was covered with green leaves on the ground, not too sure if he is dead. God please preserve his life.
Foolish soldiers, they should head to Sambisa if they have all these powers to damage things and beat helpless BRT drivers. Na only civilians they fit threaten... Mtschew
na wa o zombi boiz can take laws into their hands sha.
Can you imagine people that suppose to secure the masses are the ones causing chaos. How many civilians have been killed by these useless soldiers (uniformed men) and nothing was done. Dair is God sha
Na wa oh,
soldiers beating up civilians.....
This shows how shameless they are..
Why dont they go an do same to boko haram.
God help Nigeria.
Shame on the army......
Naija soldiers na only for civilians them de get power. Since BH don de kill them wetin de don do them. Yeye people
i saw it this morning. i fear for civilians o, only one Soldier killed and battalions responded. how many civilians are being killed daily? if the number of soldiers i saw this morning could go to sambisa forest with the amount of guns i saw today am sure the missing girls wil be found. smh for our system and Nigerian Army
Nawa. That's too bad. God in ur mercy hear our prayer and deliver us. Chioma_kairo@yahoo.com
Dum ass soldiers. Aren't these people and properties you're suppose to be protecting? Would the driver had knowingly killed their colleague or what. Such a lawless country. #SMH
Gosh.. which way Nigeria.... First to comment ... bukoladaranijo@gmail.com

We live in a world where we have to hide to make love, while violence is practice in broad daylight.

***CURRENTLY IN JUPITER***
Govt should jst bound those soldiers nd. Take to Boruno. Must they take laws into their hands? The soldier that want to competite wth BRT driver thought he has spar life @ in Barracks.
fashola bus drivers are too reckless. I av witnessed their recklessness @ some point. They have to be cautioned.
soldiers also don't have to throw caution to the wind.
Is that the solution?damaging cars and beating people what's d need mtcheww
This country tho...smh
These military men MUST be dismissed. Everyday innocent Nigerians are killed and no one takes laws into their hands. This is outright MADNESS.
Chibok dey der dey no go fight BH na palmgrove dem dey show power.......foolish pple
Haba, but that doesn't mean they should destroy.
flexycoutore@yahoo.com
Naija for you! Lawlessness everywhere!
mteww... make dem go fyt boko haram den dey run. na civilian dem sabi beat
SOLDIERS HAVE ALREADY TURNED THE BRT LANE ON IKORODU ROAD TO MILITARY LANE, I DO NOT HAVE DETAILS OF THE ACCIDENT BUT THEIR CONDUCT IN PUBLIC PORTRAYS NOTHING CLOSE TO THE ADOPTED APPELLATION OF 'DISCIPLINED FORCE' ASCRIBED TO THEM. IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT SOMEONE HAS TO DIE BEFORE THE THESIS AND ANTHITHESIS WILL LEAD US TO A SYNTHESIS IN THIS MATTER..A FISH CANNOT ACCEPT A HOOK AND ALSO COMPLAIN OF BEING DISTURBED..LUKEMON
If a bus kills an ordinary citizen in Lagos, the bus would be burnt. YOU ARE ALL ANIMALS not just the military.
Nija soldiers no fit enter sambisa na to destroying government properties and bit innocent citizen be there work now.
They are yet to defeat BH, and here they are causing unnecessary mayhem... anyone can be crushed by a bus, it was an accident..why do they feel they are special citizens.. this happens only in a lawless nation...smh
this's too bad ....ppl dat are suppose to protect our lives propertiesare now the ones destroying them ..wat a shame .
There is God. God will help us. Why can't people be patient?
Y can't dey fight boko haram lyk dis 4 killing dia luv ones dia is God ooo ehisarthur@yahoo.com
Your entire generation are animals. Idiot. Beast of no nation
Nigerian Soldiers power are so strong when it comes to ordinary civilians why not used to power and go to Borno state to burnt down the who Sambisa forest? You cannot even beat one Boko haram but when it come to innocent Nigeria civilians your Egos goes stronger, burning BRT buses justified how stupid and weak these fucking military are...
it was serious oo, nigeria soldiers are jst something else...
They shld fight the boko haram like this and not innocent civilians
Lagos BRT buses drive really rough; bullying other road users. The soldiers were wrong to destroy government properties. It's time for fashola to address the lack of regard for human life by the bus drivers
Animals on uniform...
Nigerians!!!! How can a fellow come up an accuse the soldiers turning BRT Lane to Military lane? No b d same Lagos we dey? Haba!!! There is God ooooo.
Anyway, BRT drivers needs to go back to driving school, in my language I call them Hire Assassins on the highway. They drive without caution, remorse or care of any sort. They are the so-called King of Lagos road.
For the rampage, it is normal, when you lose a brethren or a family member, if na Agbero person die, d case would b different?
Action Governor over to you.. as una dey talk, "Eko koni baje"
I CONCOR
This is simply barbaric and sad....is this a solution. Vandalising and torturing of innocent citizens. I pray for this country.
Pdp thugs in military uniform.
will d destroying of properties bring back the soldier...go to SAMBISA FOREST and use that power wey dey catch una..COWARDS
2 wrongs neva make a right @ all.i believe d highest disciplined body in naija is d military.so y d crazy act? all dos soja's shd xpelled.
Hi dear! It isn't mandatory to comment now! Please, what's all this stuff u wrote? *confused*
Abraham Osagie, please go back to school. Chai, see all these blunders all in the name of making a point.
See Ella John. Biko, you guys should not kill us here. Accidents are BONDS to happen. This is it for the day! I cant deal.
What is the difference then between civilians and military when they can equally portray similar actions. I never expect this from the so called military...Its too appalling
Well they need to be thought a lesson in discipline...I so weep for this country, up is down around here. Welcome to Africa. Silly folks thinking they're gods. I think it's time for another peace keeping campaign...maybe in CAR to get their head right.
Oge Mary, Your dp looks fine and like you work in an offix too. Its easier to type good English than explain why you spell like an illiterate.
In America they revere their soldiers because those guys when they take their pledge, take it seriously. They would literally give their lives to save a citizen but here in Nigeria, soldiers are dreaded like plagues because they are brutal and uneducated! Acts like this shows you reason why the armed forces need to be revamped ASAP!
Even the local police re running for their lives....d only person dt can calm those soldiers re their bosses....no one could even stand up to them
Over 20years I've been living here in London I have NEVER seen a British soldier on the road, except on TV, glad I left Nigeria. Vandalising buses is that the way to investigate. Moron!
Soliders make una take am easy ooo. Dobis112
Linda plz get your facts right, it was a BOMB explosion not soldiers fighting! Stop helping the government cover the fact that BOKO HARAM are in lagos and hve started bombing strategic places.PEOPLE plz be carefu
Uncivilized soldier. With this kind of village boys. Will there hope for tomorrow?
All this military men are so annoying God help us all
The guy did not deserve to die, uniform man or otherwise. Fashola should put his guys to order.
its "leave"...
U peeps lambasting d military are just bloody ignorant....do u tink if it ws a civillian it wont hapn again. u peeps just kip yannin balls. D brt peeps drive recklessly always so really nobody cares
hi linda, i was there just about 2hrs ago on my way to work. when i got to the main scene i wind down and asked one of the soldiers what happened. After explaining to me, another female soldier blocked me questioning me why i should be asking questions. I told her that the other soldier told me they killed one of them and i felt sorry. she didnt listen and called other soldiers, they rushed my car with sticks and asked mr to release my phones. I had my laptop at the back seat and my Tablet on the front seat. One soldier grabbed the tablet accusing me of taking pictures. Then amother senior officer asked the female soldier to slap. before i knew it they started beating me up in the car. I managed to drive to palmgroove bustop and parked. You can verify from people there its a green camry car. So I came down with my ID card to go and identfy myslef to the senior officer. He refused to listen and ordered his men to punce on me. I was beaten by more the 10 soldiers and my cloths torn, i had to run for my life and without my Tablet and nokia phone. Right now i am in pains with my nose nose broken one soldier used his knee on mu face. I am writing this so you can help me post it. What happened to me this morning was like a dream... and unbelievable. I am an auditor and i work for Deloitte. I was almost close to my office when this happened and had to divert to a pharmacy where i can be treated. THis is just wickedness.
Two men named Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale killed UK soldier Lee Rigby on London street with a car and then attacked his unconscious body with knives and a meat cleaver, trying to behead him which happened near Woolwich Barracks in south-east London on the afternoon of May 22 but we never heard that any soilders came out of their Barracks to react back or attack anyone but here in Nigeria i don't know what's wrong with these so called soilders and that's how they went on beating innocent people because you are on CAMO or maybe you both crossed each other ways. ZOMBIE ANIMALS
Methinks the problem with the military in Nigeria is the way they perceive civilians as superior in intellect but weaker in strength. I wonder if they were forced into the military..sorry Soldiers; you chose your path so live with it and stop taking out your frustration on innocent civilians; just bcos a soldier rammed into a stationary BRT bus on BRT lane; we would not have peace..And these are Soldiers that have commanding Officers in all their formations..A fish really starts to rot from the head.
Y must a soldier ride a bike on a brt lane? and i thought bike has being bound or soldiers are not bound from it?
What is the Soldiers doing on a BRT lane that is meant for big bus not bike, Also I thought they have bound bike ?or Soldiers are not included
MUSILIU OBANIKORO.....What do you want to say to dis....Minister of state Defecne
Imagine that this kind of situation will be going on without any form of interference by the police. #upside down country
Dats wat dey re known for dy neva stay on a lane sumtimes dey even take one way and u know BRT buses re alweis on speed wen driving on deir lane,truth be told dis soldiers re rule breakers.
This is a total shame and a disgrace on d Nigerian army. I av always been a firm supporter of Nigerian army. But this has gone too far. Lets see how d authorities handle dis matter. Its a big big shame
Hmmmm one Nigeria army are so galant we miss military rule
Linda trust mi,Obanikoro knows bout it,dats y GEJ made him Minister of da vary imagine beating family men musiliu Obanikoro stop ur soldiers nw before we will be coming for ur head,whenever u cum to isale ego u will be stone to death Gbokahun nd Jide too so he warn take ur soldiers to sanbisa forest not our Lagos or other yoruba cities where there's no boko Haram events
Ola Brampton say so
What a useless fucking country
D height of lawlessness in Nigeria is appalling!!!!! What kind of country is this?? Is ds d right way to go about things? D innocent people they are beating up, what did they do? Kai, no wonder Nigeria is retrogressing instead of progressing. Tufiakwa. U people have such powers, yets d Boko Bastards are encroaching very fast into ur territories, YDS. Mtchewww.
this is not funny
those people(soldiers) can cause problem....
BORN TO SHINE!!!!
Stupid people to catch boko haram dey can't its only to threaten masses.....All is well/via Etisalat
Mr English corrector, can u explain what 'offix' means?
NIGERIAN SOLDIERS ARE ANIMALS!!!
When will they retaliate the death of soldiers in the north?
Nigeria was not created to succeed but the extent of its failure, they are to be responsible for.
Y don't u go and help dem rescue d common chibok gals.......common fool like u
wat a country, we must blame both parties, d brt bus driver and d dead soldier, brt lane is for brt buses only and he still plight d lane, brt bus drivers self are very reckless and rough. damaging public properties is nt d way foward.
Mr shy. It's their job. They knew what they signed up for when they did. No need to insult the guy
Dont blame them. They lose their senses when they go for their training. They are just illiterates. Waiting to hear from Fashola.
This is wat we get to suffer as a lawless country....
This is serious and must not be taken with small hand dis people got to face the music
