We write as the concern citizens representing the opinion of the masses on the possible reasons why Donald Trump administration and the G7 nations must never sell arms to Nigeria government.
Firstly, Nigeria is a country that her military despite their past achievement records have no military strategies of handling sophiscated Special Weapons like warplane. That was why on January 17 the Nigerian Airforce through one of her unprofessional methods of handling warplane (fighter jet) accidental bombarded an Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) Camp in Rann village of Kala-Balge Local Government Area of Borno State which results to the death of over 56 persons including women and children and over 152 others where gruesomely injured in the mishap.
Secondly, any weapons issues to Nigeria government and her military will definitely be misused in abusing the human right of innocent citizens.
During the 2015 annual reports of Amnesty International which Indicts Nigeria Military On Human Rights Abuse and War Crimes in the war against Boko Haram in the northern states of Nigerian, the report said the conflict between the military and Boko Haram has resulted in death of thousands of civilians and over 2 million Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) .
Nigerian military have committed war crimes and possible crimes against humanity in its response to Boko Haram between 2011 to 2015. President Buhari promised to investigate evidence of several instances of war crimes by the military between June and December. However, no further action was taken to initiate independent and impartial investigations.
Thirdly, since Buhari ressume office in May 29 2015, he had since been using Nigeria Army as an apparatus to massacre the people of Biafra who where agitating to secede from Nigerian through the most peaceful principles and modalities set by United Nations to the indigenous people seeking for their right for self determinations.
Despite several forensic evidence of Photos/videos of how the Nigerian military in their various Gestapo style of operations invades where the people of Biafra was holding peaceful rally and exterminate them en mass , the president and chief of Army staff continues to denies this damning claim.
Finally, during the 1967-1970 Nigerian/Biafra civil war which left an undeletable spots in the heart of Biafra people, the weapons which was at the disposition of the Nigerian Military was used to prosecute and unleashed a deadliest pogrom on Biafrans which resulted to death of over 3.5 million innocent children ,and men and women. This is the worst war crime to be committed in Africa yet those involved are walking as free men today…..
On this observations and instances, we the concern citizens of the nation, cries to the government of the United Nations and the good people of G7 nations not to sale any arms to Nigerian government until the issues of Human right abuses, war crimes, and Biafra agitations is been properly resolves hence those involves in perpetrating this act of man inhumanity to mankind been brought to book and possibly been tried at the impartial international criminal court (Hague)
World power shouldn’t allow Nigeria government to use them as a propaganda machine”…..
