According to Daily Trust, the soldiers are currently being screened at the Jaji military cantonment in Kaduna State.
“The soldiers are all there in Jaji cantonment awaiting their turns to be screened by the committee and whoever scales through might be recalled. It was their prayer that if General Muhammadu Buhari becomes president, he might recall them. These soldiers are trained and it is very dangerous and wasteful if the federal government terminates their employments,” a source said.
One of the dismissed soldiers waiting to be screened, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the the Army did not provide them with weapons to fight Boko Haram members
"I am a corporal and I have served in the Nigerian Army for the past 28 years, I have served in Bama and Baga, what I saw there was a very bad situation. We were sent there to fight insurgents without weapons and ammunition. Can you imagine, a small boy of 15 to 18 years will pursue a soldier and the soldier would run away simply because he does not have the machines that the boy has, only for the army authorities to say they were dismissing us because we refused to fight Boko Haram. Nigerian soldiers are among the best around the world, the only problem we have is that we are not equipped with the equipment needed to combat the terrorists but we have the means and resources to do that”, he said

Good very good
Hmmmm
That's good news...happy for them..
Why would soldiers refused to fight? Is that not what they're trained to do? Only in this country will I hear such a thing.
Hmm,dis is serious,so the government did nt provide weapons for d soldiers and dey expect them to go and fight boko haram,smtimes even d weapons of robbers are more powerful dan dat of a policeman,smthing should be seriously done abt dis...
The army had no choice than to recall the smart army's that left the battle field. I can recall the proverb my great hero said during the Biafra war. " he that lives and runneraway , shall live to fight another day". This the another day for u boys. Congrats. Engr Emy
God bless this man for recalling them. They are a danger to society if left idle. Please, do look into the case of those soldiers that were sentenced to death for mutiny.

EHn! But when Badeh, Jonathan and others were complaining about these fifth columnists, APC members were shutting them up. The problem with the north is that the curse they had for the south has become their curse. These people have silently supported Boko Haram types because back then they used to kill only christians. So they were secretly idolized. Now, they have learned that the gun yields power to the holder, and that power corrupts absolutely. So they are now aware of the fact that their slave masters can also be their victims. Which human wont take the opportunity to be master. they pander their hateful doctrines, which still appeal to the north because of their unfettered hatred for anything non-moslem. well MOhammed's preachings have come to roost. You all will have to deal with the hatred you manufactured. Evil knows no boundaries and recognizes no bloodlines. It is telling when your people will rather accept the calumny of this group on their daughters, wives and sons because of the doctrine of hate that they claim guides them.
This man's face tho
Nice!

This is a great opportunity for them, this is the kind of CHANGE we are clamoring for. PMB keep on moving!
May God's protection continually be upon them....
Pls allow me digress a little: 28 years in the army and your rank is still that of a corporal! What have you been doing all these years to improve yourself as a person oga corporal? Let me guess: your highest degree is SSCE abi?
This is one of the reasons why most of our soldiers and police men live in poverty after retirement. With no plans for the future, most of them end up as gate-men or security guards that is if they are lucky these days.
They should be made to understand the benefits of further education and skill acquisition at least for the sake of dignity. They should learn to think of the future, think big and stop being content/dependent on the peanuts called salary/pension!
This will go along way to improve their lives after retirement because Nigeria right now is not that buoyant to float any of the welfare packages as seen in advanced countries. Biko, help yourselves!
Wooooow! To God be the glory.

The reason for the sack of the latter was clearly shrouded in corruption within the ranks and file of the present day military.
I had an opportunity of speakin to a frnd huz a servin Lance Corporal and his revelations were mind bugglin by any standards. And that's jst the tip of the iceberg.
I am happy for them sha

Oluwa is involve
so it is now okay to reward cowards for refusing to fight for what they are being paid for,hmmmmmm,this buhari and his antagonism for president Jonathan will surely destroy this nation,i hate this president buhari with a passion,and all you useless fools that have pinned ur pathetic hope in this fulani bastard will regret it,i swear you all will regret it,this old death bag will be Nigeria worst president ever.
Those soldiers were Boko Haram members and sympathizers. What of those who fought? Were they not in the same army? There excuse for refusing to fight is diversionary. But we know what is happening. Before now over 400 Boko Haram detainee were ordered released gratuitously. Thereafter many Boko Haram prisoners were transferred from maximum security prisons in major townships to minimum security prisons in the villages. Thereafter an ISIS leader was granted Nigerian visa to visit his associates in Nigeria. And now Boko-Haramists weeded out of Nigeria Army are being reabsorbed! I hereby prophesy that all those aiding and abetting Boko Haram terrorists MUST perish with them because he who rides the back of a tiger will end up in its stomach and the tiger killed for that. There is a living vengeful God watching the atrocious actions of the demonized vampires in Nigeria.
