Military Accused Of Training Troops In Ordinary Clothes And Bathroom Slippers. (See Photos)

Last night, Aljazeerah shared a video on its Facebook page
where a man who claimed to be a Nigerian soldier shared
photos of soldiers attached to the 3rd armored division
training in bathroom slippers and without uniforms at the
Nigerian Army Training Center in Katangura, Niger state.

The soldier who shared the photos, refused to reveal his
identity for fear of being sacked. He claimed to be one of
the reinstated soldiers who was fired before for refusing
to fight Boko Haram.

"How can someone be training with his bathroom
slippers? How could someone be training in his ordinary
clothes? None of us having rifle. None of us having
uniform. Majority of soldiers are hungry" He said.

He accused the military hierarchy of stealing the budget
of the military.

"I beleive the government released the money but it is
unfortunate that some people have decided that is
the only way of making their million" He said.

However the Chief of rmy staff, Lt. Gen Tukur Buratai says
soldiers do not necessarily have to always train in their
uniforms.

"You dont have to always train in your uniform. The
ethics is been dispatched to their units for them to be
relocated and to be rearmed" He said

The soldier also said that the homes where their wives and
children stay lack electricity, good toilet facility or running.
