Martial Court Sentences 54 Nigerian Soldiers To Death!

In a martial court judgment that lasted about 8 hours, and presided over by Brig-Gen Musa Yusuf at the army headquarters, garrisson, Abuja, 54 Nigerian soldiers were on Wednesday sentenced to death, after they were found guilty of mutiny and refusal to compact Boko- Haram insurgents.

Information revealed that the soldiers conspired to commit mutiny against the authorities of the Army 7 Division where they were attached on August 4, 2014 at the Mulai Primary School Camp, opposite AIT Maiduguri, Borno State, while five others were discharged and acquitted.

Corporal Andrew Ogwulekwu and 59 other military officers were slammed with two count charges including: criminal conspiracy to commit mutiny, and count two, refusal to carry out an order to face Boko Haram insurgents.

The charge sheet disclosed that the soldiers on trial had refused the orders of their commanding officer to advance on an operation to recapture Delwa, Bulabulin and Damboa in Borno State from Boko Haram terrorist.

The condemned soldiers are to die by firing squad.

Nigerian Government Condemns Repatriation Of Nigerian Students By The Sudanese Authority!

Despite the World Health Organisation (WHO) formal declaration that Nigeria is free of the Ebola Virus Disease after 42 days without any new case of the virus in October, the nation appears to be battling a more serious challenge of stigmatization, than the virus itself; as about 30 Nigerians were on Thursday, December 11, repatriated by the Sudanese government over suspicions of being infected by the Ebola Virus Disease.

An action that has been condemned by  the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. According to report, spokesman of the ministry, Mr. Ogbole Ode, confirmed that  26 of the 30 affected Nigerians were students who had travelled to Nigeria on holidays and were returning to Khartoun after their holidays in Nigeria.

"The repatriation is erroneous because the World Health Organisation (WHO) has declared Nigeria Ebola-free since October 20 after 42-day observation period without recording any case of Ebola.

"It is unfortunate that Sudan, a supposedly friendly African nation, which has cordial relations with Nigeria, will act this way," he said.

Stating that  the ministry was committed to the country's foreign policy of promoting and protecting the interests of Nigerians living or traveling abroad, Ode added that following the intervention of the Nigerian Embassy in Khartoun, 13 of the affected students, who had not left Khartoun, were allowed entry.
