Corps members in Kebbi state being taught to use guns? (photos)

According to a LIB reader who is a Corper in Kebbi state, he said Corps members are being taught how to use the m60 guns for protection because of the insecurity related to the forthcoming election.
"The corp members were given security tips on how to prevent and handle mishaps in the course of the elections. They will not be given guns and ammunitions but in case the Boko boys decide to show their faces, Corpers will be able to help the security agents. After all, we are all serving our father's land." He said
Dignitaries at the event today where Corpers were shown how to shoot by soldiers include the Emir of Gwandu, Commanding officer of the 1Battalion Dukku Barracks Lieutenant colonel M.M Abu,  the Commissioner of police, Director of Ndlea, military and paramilitary personnel and some corp members.

      Did i hear you correctly or you being sarcastic?
      Training of corpers to use not dane gun but machine gun. I bet you support PDP and must be dumb like Jona.
      The corper amongst them who gets frustrated in a couple of months/years time due to lack of job will easily venture into crime and unleash havoc on us all.

      @talk2frankky! I won't cuss you out but in other countries with para military service like NYSC, everyone is taught how to shoot. It's in the interest of national security. If a graduate decides to go into crime bcos he learnt how to shoot then it's stupid but what needs to be done, needs to be done! Every grown ass man in nigeria should know how to shoot.

    This is so wrong. From the pictures, corps members are apparently being taught weapon handling without protective gear: no ear muffs, no gloves. The recoil from a sub-machine gun such as the one in the picture can knock out one's teeth...

    Some Corpers don't need that training as they have done target training in their various institutions.
    Infact 80% of them are gun trained. They should be taught how to use a turret gun and armoured tanks

    When we did our security training

    We should not protect anything expect ourselves and run
