EXCLUSIVE: 34 Nigerian Soldiers Tender Resignation Letters Amid Corruption Allegations Against Army AuthoritiesThe soldiers, drawn from various formations of the army across the country, all belong to junior cadres who are mostly at the forefront in the field.

The approval of their voluntary disengagement dated January 25, 2023, was signed by Colonel AC Unadgu and exclusively obtained by SaharaReporters during the weekend.There have been allegations of corruption in the Nigerian Army which some of the soldiers have blamed on the issue – soldiers overstaying in the Northeast.

They complained of abandonment and accused the military authorities of keeping them on the front beyond their approved period of stay “The Nigerian Army gave 198 Special Force Commanding officer, Lieutenant Colonel Abdulahi Hassan Ali millions of Naira to give his soldiers for Operation Thunder Strike that was conducted in Kaduna State in 2021 but he refused to pay them accordingly,” one of the soldiers said.

“This is a man who I sed to convert soldiers’ entitlements, he has been pocketing the battalion's feeding money every months. You know we dare not challenge or ask our commanding officer about all the money and other allowances but we have family and relatives that we are taking care of at our various homes. So Nigerians should please help us out.”

The letter had read, “We want to start by saying that it is a shame on General Muhammadu Buhari for failing to address the financial mismanagement of Nigerian soldiers while they continue to cry on the daily basis.

You don't need to be told anything about Nigeria. This is part of the evidence that it is not well with Nigeria.

Where are the 2015 protagonists of “let Baba choose those he is comfortable to work with” in defiance of the Federal Character act?Corruption extravaganza

Propaganda picture,Election is near

The lies of personal armies in nigeria is on them . There is work in the country sirs before you leave outside country , well trained.

But when Buhari gave them order to —- Nigerian youths they did exactly that! Won ni ku re

Best decision they have ever made

Buhari and his cabinet and the whole of political criminals in APC are Corrupt. Added to that is his Nepotism, to populate the military predominantly with one region of the country!! Nigerians know now that Buhari is pursuing a hidden agenda all along as a President!!

The soldiers must carry out a coup and organised a plein field free and fair election supervised by reputable international community devoid of votes buying and must not include above 70's. Without this, let Biafra, Oodua, Arewa and others go and develop individually.

Only young soldiers can help poor and helpless Nigerians achieve a revolution to turn things around. Buhari might have solace in God today and boast of not stealing but his past may have catch up with him. He was once PTF chairman and they used that program steal enormous amount.

Nigerian Military is the bedrock of Corruption…Generals feeds on their allowances

34? These are fewer numbers, wait until agbado master sat on the presidency chair. Don't be suprise when 1000× send a resignation request at such a crunching time.
