Man says he's willing to sue the Nigerian army on behalf of man beaten by Cadets

Did he say one billion dollars? This is about the man who was severely beaten by army cadets in Abuja in 2014. The video of the beating went viral last week. See more after the cut...

    This man is making a huge sense, even the way these force men will shamelessly subject a woman's handbag to an embarrassing scrutiny, they need their job to be properly defined. Now the common Nigerian who is not a uniform man can't live life freely without being intimidated and oppressed by these jobless touts called uniform men. There should be a law that will restrict force men generally in the level of assault the masses suffer.

    anything short of a dismissal of those cadets or maybe now officers would be rubbish,it just shows the state of our military institutions in Nigeria, if they had honour or respect for their institutions, they would have publicly identified the cadets by now,butni guess they are busy perusing the Internet and social media so as to target terrorise anybody making negative remarks about them,SMH for institutions that are supposed to protect its citizens but have actually turned to terrorising them,institutions that want to be honoured and respected but whom cannot honour and respect themselves and other citizens,institutions that labels it's civilian populace as "bloody civilians".

    According to Gani Fawehinmi, esq, TO BE LAWFUL IN A LAWLESS SOCIETY IS A CRIME. If this individual was residing in one of these developed countries, he would have won a jackpot to the tune of millions of money. No lawyer in nigeria could take the initiative to sue on behalf of this innocent man and win millions of naira for the violation of his fundamental human rights. Yet we have a president who should be fighting for the common man that voted for him busy shuffling around the globe being silent on this matter. He is the commander in Chief of the armed forces and should by now have brought all the culprits involved in the dehumanisation of the man to book, dismissed and jailed

    This guy should calm down and not waste his resources taking d Nigerian army to court. D guy was assaulted by cadets and not army personnel. These are just kids in d academy and not employees of d Nigerian army.
    It's like a secondary school student or university undergraduate harassed u and u want to sue d school instead of their parents or d kids themselves.
    D guy can go ahead sha if he wants to waste his precious resources.
    D army academy may be responsible for disciplining their cadets but can't b held liable for d cadet's personnel actions bcos d cadets don't even have a contract or assignment with d army, they are just students in training

Oga anonymous, go and sit down somewhere you don't know what you are saying. So again, because these guys are cadets, they could act this way and because 'These are just kids in d academy and not employees of d Nigerian army' they will go free or they just tell the victim 'Pele ma bin u so gbo' for your info, dem neva jam beta lawyer wey get craze, stubborn wella.
