I think revolution is just unfolding itself gradually in every system of government in Nigeria. The old Nigerian system that i know used to be "Apes Obey" but the New Nigeria things are gradually changing.
According to the SaharaReporters,
Reports say at about 3pm yesterday, the soldiers gathered together and marched to the new GOC's office, shooting into the air and chanting "we nor go gree" songs. The soldiers were demanding for their unpaid furniture allowance which is N100,000 and other allowances as well as the reinstatement of Okada and Tricycle means of transportation which was banned by the new GOC. Continue...
The soldiers wondered why Okada and Keke Napep would be banned in the barrack
since its the only affordable means for them and their
families to move around considering the vast expanse
the barracks occupies, and most of them don't own cars.
At the office of the GOC, they ordered one of the Army Generals to walk around the barracks to feel their pain, pushing and shoving him intermittently.
This revolt is coming just a week after the soldiers in the Malmalari barracks revolted against their former GOC on May 14th, shooting at his convoy. He has since been redeployed to a different base and investigations on the mutiny according to Military heads is ongoing to ensure the soldiers who revolted are disciplined accordingly
