About 40 Nigerian soldiers are reported to have refused orders from
their superior to move to the North to fight
Boko Haram, saying they will only obey the order if they are
provided with better equipment.
One of the mutineers who spoke anonymously with BBC
Hausa said lack of good weapons and ammunition to fight the terror group is why a lot of soldiers get slaughtered by the insurgents, adding that the Nigerian
army is not ready to fight Boko Haram
“Soldiers are dying like fowl. The Nigerian army is not ready to fight Boko Haram. Boko Haram are inside the bush, everywhere. They (senior commanders) are sacrificing soldiers" he said. Continue...The mutineer also stated that the armored cars they are expected to use in battle are old and outdated.
He said he could not be court marshaled by his superior for taking part in the mutiny because only soldiers who decline to take part in wars are court-marshaled, stating that he and his other colleagues are not declining to go to war but are only asking for better equipments before they go to war.
"I joined the army to defend my country but you cannot defend it without being equipped to do so" he said

# l support them or let them (senior commanders) should join them and enter bush too...
It is actually a very simple case if you ask me ..since all they are demanding is better equipment ..why hesitate? What if they say they aren't going to fight. I urge the govt to act on this ASAP. God bless our country. Isaiah 41:10. BishopDammy#
I agree
Which is very true!!!!! Apart frm the armor n equipment, how long are our soldiers gonna fight dem wen 9ja isn't ready to do anytin about them. Tanda where una de joor.

dnt miind d stupid govt who our leaders can buy houses worth millions buh cannot equip d army .all f u shud nt go until d govt wakes up.dey no hw 2 stop bh buh keep dragging leg.smh
I could recall some months ago when the Borno state governor made it public that Nigerian army is not well motivated to fight this insurgency,presidential rotweilers went for his jurgulars,calling him all sorts of names.
Today he's been vindicated. Our govt lacks living in denial,soo Okupe or Reno Omokri will go and post pix from a military operation in Iraq claiming its Nigerian military.
I doubt the sincerety of Nigerian government at fighting this evil.

Gbam!!! Simply supply this guys with better ammunition and bh will be dealt with.
That has been the problem
Ma buddies over there re complaining about same thing
You can't bring a knife to a gun fight
....SƖεεkz
Oh its now their eyes have opened abi? The Nigerian army is as corrupt as the NPF.So many moles and betrayal going on inside the khaki boys formation.Revolution by junior ranking soldiers is the only axe that can bring down this cancerous tree.Coz if they keep waiting on the govt,hehehe that one na infinity tinz
I don't blame them the govt need to give them what they request for to fight the BH.
This Nigeria is just doomed! Soldiers won't receive good ammonition to fight boko because boko has penetrated the army. Its very simple logic. Boko has penetrated everywhere, the govt, the miltary, police,etc. This country is just a freaking time bomb
I feel u dawg, don't balme u at all
They shouldn't move an inch if they are not well equipped
But he is right u know linda. CHI.
Good
GEJ is working!! Our very own Nigerian Mandela is hard at work. Let's give him 4 more years please. In fact, let's make him life president of Nigeria.
He is a marvel to the nations...ruling Nigeria with a coconut for a head!
I support their stand, nobody is ready to die for nothing. If we are serious in fighting this surge govt should provide more sophisticated arms/weapon for them to fight with. Let's make some cool cash, click here and register www.referbizpay/?ref=7508
Imagine a country like USA sending its soldiers to a war zone without making sure to outwit their adversaries on all fronts! Cutting corners and corruption has finished Nigeria! I wouldn't gamble with my life too if I were in their shoes too.
U re very correct
Am in support of the soldiers...
They need to be well equipped
Where is our oil money or sell one presidential jet to raise money. Make haste ejor.
I won't be surprised if tomorrow it is discovered that GEJ is letting this war linger in order to able to loot more money in the name of fighting BH
Good to hear, our soldiers are not well equipped. Why sacrifice them on the alter of Boko Haram ?
Pls let's help them pass this message to the govt by using #equipoursoldiers. Mothers are loosing their sons; wives are loosing their husbands and children are loosing their fathers. What a great loss indeed!!!
I so much dislike this our president. WTF is wrong will the man?so he can not provide good equipment for them and all his doing watching movie up and down. This president is just fucked abeg. Useless man
I concur with the soldıers... You just want to send them to theır early grave.. They should provide them with sophıstıcated weapons and see if BH will will still exıst.. IT İŞ WELL
d are sayin #bring back our gal and we are loosin our soldiers. May God protect my Gee 2nd lt. Lisbon and oda soldier in d battle
Idiota, to volunteer you refused. Real men are talking n ppl like you are thinking they have brains. Long hiss
Primary skool rhymes
"A soldiers life is a merry one
as he matches along to the battle field
with a rattle rattle bum bum
rattle rattle bum bum
rattle rattle rattle rattle bum bum bun"
FG govt are sponsoring boko haram so how do you expect them to provide weapon for soldier?
They shud pls listen to them!
Foolish Leaders. Wonder Why They Caה't Provide Them †ђƐ Instruments They Need (Liהda's Maה)

Very true
God please help our nation and the leaders.....I don't know what to believe anymore
IAM ASHAMED OF OUR NIGERIAN SOLDIERS. NOT ONLY ARE THEY COWARDS WHO ARE VERY GOOD AT SLAPPING AND INTIMIDATING CIVILIANS , THEY HAVE SHOWN THAT ANY FARMER WHO DECIDES TO TAKE UP ARMS AGAINST THEM WILL DEFEAT THEM. IT IS A BIG SHAME AND THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES
If u expect good harvest then go the farm with implements.
Federal Government should sack all the soldiers just like he sacked the doctors in order to address the issue of poor equipment
The need better weapons..
SERIOUS CORRUPTION IN THE ARMY. FUNDS ARE MADE AVAILABLE TO BUY DIS EQUIPMENTS....SUM1 , SUMWHERE IS CHOPPING THE MONEY.
Stupid Govt, sposoring Boko Haram cldnt have enoff time n resources to sposored d soldiers to fight for us. sending dem to the lion's den without shield. chwwwwww

supported. Our govt should provide the things they need
Some people here don't under stand simple english language, the soldiers are not afraid of confront the boko group, what they demand for is equipment, can a farmer go to farm without his working tools. Some people should try and use their head when they want to comment.
