NIGERIAN ARMY APPREHENDS SOLDIERS THAT MOLESTED PHYSICALLY CHALLENGED PERSON

 The attention of the Nigerian Army has been drawn to a video clip in which two soldiers were seen maltreating a physically challenged person for allegedly wearing a camouflage shirt.

Army spokesman SK Usman said “we wish to inform the public that the incident took place on Tuesday 7th February 2017, at Onitsha, Anambra State.”

Brigadier General Sani Kukasheka USman who is the Director Nigeria Army Public Relation added “in line with our zero tolerance for acts of indiscipline and unprofessional conducts especially in relation to violation of human rights, we wish to further state that the soldiers involved have since been identified and apprehended.”

“They have also been charged for assault by their Commanding Officer,” SK Usman.

Similarly, troops have been warned to desist from such acts that infringe on human rights and cast serious aspersions on the good image of the Nigerian Army.

The public should please regard this ugly incident as an isolated case which is not true reflection of the Nigerian Army.
