A
Nigerian soldier from Kogi state, Adah Joseph, has allegedly been dismissed for
aiding and protecting 'Biafra' protesters.
According to the viral video making
rounds on social media, there was riot during a Biafra rally which happened in
February 2017 in Abraka, Delta. Hausas around the venue of the meeting were
said to have been angry that the Igbos were using their space as venue, hence,
the riot.
The young man went on to say that it
was the noise that he and some other soldiers heard and they decided to go over
to the venue to see what was going on. They were later dismissed from the Nigerian
Army for allegedly supporting the Igbo people at the venue during the riot.
He claimed that their (he and his
colleagues) dismissal was not formal. He claimed they were arrested and kept in
a guardroom. The soldier concluded and said he is not in love with the job any
more due to what happened. He said if goes back to the job, he can be set up
and killed by the Nigerian Army.
