A soldier in the Nigerian Army, Ojikutu Ridwanullahi, who is tired of
the public perception of soldiers as a who is calling on the public to
change their view.
He says Nigerian should stop seeing soldiers
as enemies and to have respect for soldiers. According to him, soldiers
live to protect the innocent; and they should be respected for that.
See his unedited letter below…
Dear
civilians of Nigeria this post is meant to change ur thinking towards
us. Looking at other countries, people give respect to their soldiers
and these soldiers are not working as hard as we.
Nigerian Soldiers
are not ur enemies, the enemies are Boko Haram and Militant. We are
facing dem for u while u run away from dem.
Take for instance, if
there is an attack u cannot go there but to run off the place to avoid
death but we with just one life like u will run to it and make it stop.
We can die as well because we have blood in our veins.
You have never
clapped for our struggles but talk bad about us, u have never prayed
for us but plan on how to injure us are u our enemy as well. Before i
joined Army, i thought Soldiers were bullies but wen i joined i got to
know that since u cant stop a moving car but pushing or pulling it den u
cant stop soldiers from being rugged and chausing because thats the
programming.
Stop adding to Soldiers problem and give us our little
respect as warriors. In those days, no one dears try a knight or
soldiers but nw not the same.
Our soldiers die everyday for the
country. If you want to know more, come for the training and lets post
you @ Maiduguri or Chad or Cameroon then you will know. Gallant Soldiers
pls pass this on till all Nigerian will see it. Cos when ever I
remember all I and my regulars went through water fell from my eyes. we
re rugged, we re not coward ”
GOD BLESS NIGERIAN ARMY,I rep 74
