Soldier reacts to viral video of Gov Sanwo-Olu arresting his colleague.
A Nigerian soldier fumes as he reacts to the viral video of Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu arresting his colleague for one-way traffic violation.
A video which made the rounds earlier this week and had caused mixed reactions online had captured the moment the Lagos governor was instructing the police and the DSS to arrest a man on a motorcycle.
Apparently, the man was plying a one-way and during his arrest, the man noted that he was a soldier. This had angered the politician all the more as he lambasted him further.
An unidentified Nigerian soldier in a military uniform berated the act, raging at how they had treated his colleague and called him unprintable names.
He lamented over the sacrifices soldiers are making in unlivable places only be treated as mere civilians in cities.

Military Police arrest Military personnel that commit offence within the military but if the commit civil offence its the duty of the police to arrest them. Let’s stop this lawlessness from the long years of military rule”

iamnicki_pearl stated: “He identified himself as an Army personnel, instantly the situation should have been handled differently (like handing him over to the MP) not DSS harassing a military personnel 🤦 and the “governor” doesn’t know this is wrong . Even the governor doesn’t have that right and he went ahead to call him useless because you sir in the office you think you are as useful as these folks ?”
