The Delta State Government on Saturday commended the Nigerian Army high command for arresting two soldiers shown in an online video threatening to rape women in Warri and infect them with HIV/AIDS.

Commissioner for Information, Mr Charles Aniagwu, who gave the commendation in a statement, said the military was a special force known for its discipline and wondered where the errant soldiers got their training and orientation from.

Aniagwu said no soldier was killed in Warri and that government was concerned about where the soldiers got their information that warranted their using uncouth and uncivilised language in threatening the people of Warri in the video which had gone viral.

Kudos to the Nigerian Army for a swift response. Watch as soldiers threaten to rape women in warri https://t.co/sUH1d78PiL pic.twitter.com/HKuX9o8Jwt

The commissioner called on the people to remain peaceful and continue to obey government directives which, according to him, are designed to protect the people from the dreaded novel coronavirus.

“You will recall that in our statement on Friday, we said the attitude of the soldiers did not represent the discipline and training associated with military personnel.

“Let me on behalf of the Delta State Government thank the military high command for arresting the deviant soldiers who were bent on tarnishing the image of the army.

“The arrest of the soldiers in the viral video will no doubt restore the confidence of Nigerians in the military.

“It is worrisome that soldiers who were supposed to be highly disciplined would indulge in such acts of brutality and threats to women.

“We call on the military high command to carry out a full investigation into the matter with a view to bringing the culprits to justice.

“As a government, we will continue to partner security agencies to ensure the peace and economic development of our state,” the statement read.

    The so-called Delta government which are complicit and collaborators of fulani caliphate with its emirates, must go down with fulani caliphate with its emirates. Thugs of fulani caliphate with its emirates nickname military and police which are killing this territory natives to subdue this territory natives under fulani rulership, must be Eliminated on every inch of this natives territory of Disintegrated Republics for end of fulani caliphate with its emirates. The so-called Nigeria which is fulani caliphate with its emirates, has fallen and gone forever- it is Yugoslavia of Africa. The six geopolitical zones are Sovereign States- Biafra Republic of south east, Niger Delta Republic of south south, Oduduwa Republic of south west, North East Republic, North West Republic, North Central Republic. Boko Haram is for North East Republic, Amotekun is for Oduduwa Republic of south west, Ogbunigwe is for Biafra Republic of south east. Anyim Pius Anyim is interim president Biafra Republic of south east.
