Army to review case of soldiers condemned to death for mutiny

The Nigerian Army has ordered a review of the courts-martial of more than 600 soldiers and officers condemned to death for mutiny and deserting the battle against Boko Haram in the North East.

AP reports that a statement released signed by army administrator, Maj. Gen. A. B. Abubakar yesterday August 2nd, states that all the accused and condemned soldiers will appear before a committee that will sit and review their cases in Kaduna state from Aug. 7 to Aug. 24.

The soldiers had at different times revolted against their commanders over lack of weapons to fight Boko Haram members. Seems like former Chief of Defense Staff Alex Badeh now agrees with them.

Plz review. That judgement needs review. Thanks to the new Army Chief. At least they should get a fair judgement. But I don't condemn the speeches of the last chief, he might have done it to boost the morale of the soldiers, which is necessary in times of war.

So if GoodlUck got a 2nd term these gallant men would have just been wasted like that...Seems like the emergence of Buhari is the beginning of wisdom in Nigeria

Mercies of the Lord come down unto them....
I was really sorry for them when they were condemned to death. The hammer of justice is prevailing. No point killing them when we have many insurgents to kill, they will be useful, I guess.

Let's see the prosecution from another perspective.

The so called Obama that carries gay matter in his head, when buhari went to visit him, why didn't he plead on their behalf to buhari to spare their lives. Why did these soldiers disobeyed orders in the first place, is it not because they don't have the necessary weaponry to confront the more sophisticated Boko haram? O, what a FAKE man Obama is. Hypocrite

Pls spare dem

The Nigerian army should not only unconditionally release these soldiers that had been unjustly incarcerated and mistreated, but pay them compensation and all that is due for them. Those that want to continue to serve should be given the opportunity. Meanwhile the Nigerian army authorities should round up Alex Badeh and his corrupt cohorts who plundered the army under GEJ administration, try them and prosecute them by the law.
