Just last week, several policemen were reportedly killed while on duty in Delta State. We were still recovering from the shock over such a sad occurrence when yesterday, we were besieged with the gory reports of the killing of 22 officers and men of the Nigerian Army, also in Delta State. In both sad incidents, the dead security personnel were on active duties of securing and keeping peace within our communities, state and country before their unfortunate end, even by the people they were trying to help.

This killing is barbaric and totally unacceptable and should not be tolerated by Nigerians and any sane society. For a nation already combatting a high level of insecurity, the killing of our security personnel who put their lives on the line for the security of the nation will be too much of a burden to bear. These sad occurrences and many cases of killing, kidnappings and violent crimes around the country, have continued to fuel very deep concerns over the security of the nation.

These security operatives are making a lot of sacrifices in their line of duty, and in some cases pay the supreme price. We must therefore appreciate and value them by showing empathy towards them and ensuring healthcare for those who are wounded.

There should be adequate compensation and welfare packages for the families of those who die in active service. All of us should always show our love by commiserating with their families and even visiting them in such difficult times.

I sincerely condole with the families of the security personnel that died, and their security formations (Nigerian Army and the Nigeria Police Force respectively) over the sad loss of their personnel.

I encourage them not to be dispirited by these ugly developments but see it as a challenge to increase their efforts in their duties. I urge the government and the security agencies to leave no stone unturned in investigating, arresting and prosecuting those behind these ugly acts. May God grant eternal rest to all the security officers who have lost their lives fighting for the peace and security of our nation. May God grant all of us the fortitude to bear this sad irreplaceable loss. -PO

Agreed the killing of those soldiers is highly condemnable

But nothing in this world can justify the burning down of a whole community.

The Army with all the resources at their disposal should be able to carry out a thorough investigation and identify the actual killers

Those criminals need to be seriously dealt with with real iron hand without mercy. That was some babaric gruesome killings.
It is a serious low for the Nigerian army.

PO seems to be the president of the country.
The people's president is extra ordinarily active coaching , correcting , teaching and showing grabber how to lead from the front.

Tinubu continues to be missing in action. All that he and boys think of is 2027

Soldier or no soldier




Soldiers life no important civilians life



Soldiers are quick to unleash murder in South East but when it comes to North they turn blind

Hmm

I thought they said Yorubas are the ones calling for attack on S/S. Does it mean Obi has now become Yoruba ? Or some dumb self-deluded hate-filled Obidients are simply displaying their true selves. Until Obi talks they don't have a sense of their own. Anyway, when a blind man is other blind men both are destined for the ditch.

Obi has ed Yoruba, Lol. let's see if ipob will attack their messiah.

I don't even take Obi seriously, he's a modafucker hypocrite. Show me anywhere Obi condemned the killings of security agents in southeast and called for their arrest. He knew if he did that, he'd be touching his beloved ipob and there would roast him alive, but see him talking in reverse in delta. Anyways, i will be looking to see headless mob attack him for this.

You write like an illiterate, I pity your offspring and your parents. 16 security operatives were killed, last week 25 policemen were killed in the same state and you come here to write trash?

If the country descends into anarchy, can you survive? The Tinubu that you're abusing will be abroad chilling while you and your family will be in Nigeria to bear the brunt of your stupidity, your sisters and mother's will likely be raped and all your possessions will be stolen

Make una dey get sense, as much as you don't a government, use your head

Nice one from him, the entire nation is horrified by the ugly incident

I totally that the culprits should be fished out and punished metted but leave the innocent in the community alone who have no hand in the atrocities committed

Hmm

The south west are campaigning for the village to be annihilated

That's how truly they love the south..

Something that happens all the time in the North..

Obi said that culprits should be arrested.

But Tinubu ers that have inhaled insecticide are saying that Obi is encouraging army to burn houses of innocent people.

Whatever action you take, dont take an action similar to what Israel did to Hamas.
Two wrongs never make a right, dont listen to those agitating for more chaos.
All the traditional rulers, LGA chairman , Youth leaders , Pastors, Commissioners , Party leaders, chairman, deputy chairman, Local head of the thugs in that area anyone who is an authority or semi authority should be summoned to Governors office. Tell them whoever doesn't honor the invitation gets put on the wanted list.
These people should now dialogue with the NSA and security agencies including the military, senator from that area, house of representatives.
While this is going on DSS, should go and get the names of the main actors, most likely they are operating under same cult or vigilante association.
Infiltrate the community, with money, informants, force and arrest all those possible, any person left not arrested should have a heavy bounty on their head, 50 million Naira. So that they can never show face in public.
Charge them to court, let the jury comprise of people from the same locality and give them the maximum sentences possible.
All those people summoned should be on DSS watch going forward, if they leave the locality, they have to check with DSS, Every friday they have to report and mark in an office or location.
Remove all the people that could have stopped these attacks but did nothing, Traditional ruler or elected official or appointee. Anyone with foreknowledge that didn't raise and alarm or stopped it should be removed.

Its also time for legislation on gun ownership by civilian.
The government has to set up private anonymous reporting lines for EFCC,NSA and DSS.
The government cannot have eyes everywhere, but some Nigerians will always serve as informants at the right time. This will save a lot of lives and property. Punish culprits for as long as they are alive, to serve as deterrent.
Just imagine if someone had texted that the soldiers were walking into a planned ambush ! They would have fortified or aborted.
All these medicine after death approach method is not effective.
Nigeria needs to take intelligence seriously, government needs to study the terrain in many communities and prevent these kind of attacks before it happens.

Build more military bases in Niger-Delta.Nigeria's economy depends on Niger Delta.....USA has military bases in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Niger. It happened in Odi now Okuama...Common, build a military base and secure the whole place, let them see soldiers morning, afternoon and night.

Fish out the culprits... There are intelligence networks to do this.

Don't destroy the village or kill innocent citizens

Peter girigory Obi is a hypocrite playing politics with everything after losing election shamefully, when things happen in Igbo land like unknown known gunmen killing people he will keep quiet and turn to the other side but let it happen elsewhere and see him shouting like the busybody ezekwesilly

Guy shut the f**kup when it comes to SS/SE the military are quick to display their might, why they never born villages for North na today we dey hear say soldiers and policemen dey die for North?

They are double standard that's all they just want to show their might when it comes to SE/SS but when worst happens in the North you will see they are limp noodles.

That killing is provocative.

Bros na people papa wen die na you dey talk about like this...still fear God aberg ....forget watin happen for north ...why you go just kill soldier when come help you nor b one or two... Jesu it too much they went too far.

Noted.

I'm shocked that some miscreants in communities kill soldiers and the soldiers start burning down the entire community, including the houses of innocent people.

Why not fish out the culprits and deal with them ruthlessly? Why do black people behave like senseless wild animals?

Tell your father to shut the fhuck up, killing military personnel en mass should be condemned regardless of where it happened clown

Soldier life important civilian life because they are trained to protect civilian lives... one soldier can defend and protect 10 or more civilians but one civilian can only protect himself at best.....

Na akpu or offala or bitterleaf they make una dey think like this? Everything does not revolve around South East... anybody that rejoices over bad things that happen to Nigeria will not prosper in Nigeria they will remain bitter until they die on the soil of Nigeria.
