Soldiers Clash With UNIBEN Students.

one month ago859 views

There was chaos at the University of Benin, Edo state, on Thursday evening, February 2, following a clash between some students of the institution and some soldiers at an ATM point within the school campus. Unconfirmed reports claim the soldiers arrived at the ATM point and tried to jump the queue to use the ATM. It is alleged that one of the soldiers had asked his female colleague to beat a female student, who they thought was doing a video recording of them as they tried to intimidate the students and use the ATM without being in the queue. The students did not take the harassment lightly as they attacked the soldiers and forced them out of their school premises. Normalcy has since returned to the school premises.

This soldiers came to the ATM, one was able to with draw forcefully and after withdrawing he went and start calling his colleagues to come do the same thing, that was when a guy on the queue asked them why will they be doing that and then they started harassing the guy, told him to roll on the floor. A female student was there doing video of their action.

They where not even sure if she was doing video of them or just pressing her phone and the they went and call their female colleague to come beat the girl, that was when the school security came in to rescue the girl and they pounced on the security, saying they dont have right to interfere.

That was what stated the fight. And i got to find out that they injured someone in the eye during that process. Now this morning at about 12am this same soldiers had gone into the school to beat up school securities on duty and destroyed people cars and school properties. This is actually not funny cause it will cause more problems again.

Nigerian soldiers behave as if they don't reside in this country. They just work and return to the moon. There's already pressure and pandemonium in everywhere and their common sense can not tell them that all Nigerians are affected by this. Yesterday in my area 2 person collapsed at an ATM stand because the queue was long. Some persons were number 270 as every customer was given number depending on the time you came for withdrawal. And some persons can not be humane enough and reasonable to know everybody is striving because you are on uniforms. What a pity.

Even lecturers dey collect normally not to talk of Soldiers. My own is they would have asked for permission first of all, the students would have agreed and they would withdraw and go their way. Police will use force on atm, soldiers too, then lecturers🤦🏽‍♀️

Na normal thing for dt uniben, cos there is an army barracks close to the university so soldiers are always having issues with the students.. I could remember one time my friends and I almost fought some soldiers cos of This ATM matter for this same attitude during my days in Uniben, they will come inside the school ATM and be behaving like mini gods..

If you hear gun shot now and one or two people go down death, una go blame soldiers for reckless shooting. Everything shouldn't be fight and violence in this country for God sake. Soldiers who wanted to get on que by force & attacking students, you are wrong. Students who beat up soldiers you are wrong. Me typing this, I'm wrong too.

I was watching this video and then my neighbour came and we watched it together.
He said that this video changed his life and touched his heart. Then I went and rented a projector in a big field and my entire town watched it and it changed their lives too. We all are so grateful.
Thank You for this video..

Use your brains guys..... Respect is reciprocal. Army should not be disrespected in this manner, they should have been allowed to use the ATM and not queue... However, beating up students who complain is also provocative. Everyone should know there limits

In a state of normalcy, Uniform men and medical personnels are supposed to be allowed to skip queues but we are not ready for this argument. Beating a personnel for whatever reason is wrong. But una think sey una head dey hot . Oya na!! Na una go beg o.

While we condemn the misuse of power by military officers to oppress the students we must also say the students went over board in their retaliation. The army could come back for them & even the school management will not be able to stop them

But that’s wrong of the soldiers to jump the queue without even pleading for them to give them preferential treatment or access to use the ATM. That you are a soldier doesn’t mean you should intimidate civilians!

When you have a problem with soldiers, it is better you involve the school authority so they can report it in their barracks, but fighting them heads on can never end well oo, cult boys and soldiers no be the same thing oo.
