- A soldier’s words hits like a red-hot poker in a scathing video where he tore into Nigeriens for shedding tears and throwing a fiesta in honor of the late singer Mohbad, but don’t pay respects to the brave soldiers who laid down their lives protecting them.
- This military maverick, found himself utterly perplexed, unable to grasp the enigma of why, in the aftermath of his passing, Mohbad’s name has become a blazing comet streaking through the skies of Nigeria and far-flung realms, while his fallen comrades remain in the shadows, their valor unheralded and their sacrifice unsung.
In the aftermath of the heart-wrenching loss of Mohbad, a Nigerian soldier has passionately aired his grievances, likening the way Nigerians exalt departed celebrities to a grand spectacle, while neglecting the unsung heroes, his military brethren, who have valiantly given their all on the battlefront to shield the nation from harm’s way.
In a viral video that’s been making the rounds, this soldier expressed his seething discontent and a heavy heart at the disheartening lack of recognition for the men in uniform. He shed light on the arduous reality of soldiers stationed in the wilderness around the clock, putting their lives on the line to defend the nation.
He recounted another instance where military personnel are often treated with disdain on the road, like mere shadows.
The soldier, consumed by anger, went on to lament how the internet has erupted with tributes and celebration for the late singer Mohbad, while he and his fellow soldiers are consistently met with disrespect and scant acknowledgment, even at the slightest provocation.
In a fervent outburst, the soldier invoked curses upon those who compound their already challenging duties with activities such as planning for IPOB, engaging in kidnappings, and perpetuating other threats to the nation’s security.
