“The infantrymen are all there in Jaji cantonment looking ahead to their turns to be screened by means of the committee and whoever scales via is probably recalled. It changed into their prayer that if general Muhammadu Buhari becomes president, he might bear in mind them. those infantrymen are trained and it is very risky and wasteful if the federal authorities terminates their employments,” a source stated.

"i am a corporal and i have served within the Nigerian navy for the past 28 years, i have served in Bama and Baga, what I saw there has been a completely bad scenario. We have been sent there to fight insurgents with out weapons and ammunition. are you able to consider, a small boy of 15 to 18 years will pursue a soldier and the soldier would run away truly because he does not have the machines that the boy has, only for the army government to say they were dismissing us due to the fact we refused to fight Boko Haram. Nigerian infantrymen are the various fine round the sector, the handiest hassle we've got is that we aren't prepared with the equipment needed to fight the terrorists but we've got the method and sources to do that”, he stated
