For those who supported troops on the streets and highways of Nigeria, this is what we are beginning to see unfold. The military now gets involved in quelling student protests over the lack of basic amenities?! They have been conditioned to see the general public as a potential enemy. Not all the soldiers are like this, but this is an old trend repackaged under the presidency of Goodluck Jonathan. The average Nigerian I believe understands this from what I have seen. There are others who comment, sometimes against me, that the armed forces on expressways and roads are necessary to fight terrorism and kidnapping. I believe you mean well and want to see Boko Haram checked in anyway possible as well as the kidnapping problem, but this is what it is resulting in. I understand that you are not on the ground to experience this now. First, troops are sent to Lagos and Ibadan to quell the 'Occupy Nigeria' protests, now they are killing university students who are protesting lack of water and electricity, something their tuition pays for. This is the first signs of an authoritarian government masked as a democratic system. We just left military rule almost 14 years ago and we are sliding back into a de facto dictatorial state.

this are thinks happing in nideria, i remember when i was in nigeria last year, i show the way armys are doing to poor people. the people there are spuse to defen is a pity, we jost need to change system. pdp most go.armys most stay out of brutalizing citizen. democracy is the voice and vote of the people.thinks that are happing in nigeria is showing that this goverment is not a legitimate goverment. the came in through the back door and know they are bullying the nation rather then doing good to up great there personality . may the soul of those student rest in peace.
