I have always been fascinated by military parades and drills. The gun salute is one that stands out. Those ladies in the Women's Corps did very well. Thumbs up to the Guards Sergent. The CDS indeed inspected the Guard-of-Honour - properly positioning the rifles of the two female guards.
I spent over 30 years of my life within and around Army barracks seeing and watching live parades with no interference whatsoever and seeing Armoured tanks live and direct. It's overwhelming
He is Gen. lucky Irabor ; the # 1 military officer in Nigeria. He is our chief of defense staff(CDS) and he overseas army, Air Force and Navy personnel in Nigeria.
Are you sure, if they see your enemies, they will run. They are only good in oppressing innocent civilians. They are more corrupt than the politicians.
There shall be a lot of weeping and gnashing of teeths...but The Saints will Match on because we are Co Heirs with Our Lord Jesus...Oh what a wonderful day
A friend of mine, the son of a Four Star US Airforce General was a young Second Lieutenant at the time. He borrowed his dad’s car to go back to his base after leave but forgot to take off his dad’s stars, you can only imagine his surprise when the Base Commander was there to meet the car as he arrived at the gate of his base.
HOAX. This is impossible. This is a crime and probably also in your own country. Pretend in a higher rank. I hadn't laughed at it and let him come before disciplinary law.
@@fabbierose2858 it’s a true story, he wasn’t pretending, it was a mistake. Both father and son were called Walter Sweeney, look him up. General Sweeney was at that time the Head of SAC. Unlike you the USAF has a sense of humour, besides disciplining them would be difficult, they are both dead!
As The Son Of Retired Airforce Officer, It Has Always Been Fascinating For Me Since Childhood To See These Men & Women Of Nigerian Armed Forces Go Through The Parades & Drills - As I No Do Military, One Of My Children Must Do Ot O
How i wish Nigeria can be committed to both serving and retired men and women of ours armed forces. Some gave up a lot for genuine reasons while some for selfish reasons.
That's not the way to look at things! It's not necessarily about the one individual, it is about the office the "individual" holds ! It's the military tradition everywhere in the world! For a start Nigeria is only one of a few countries in the world that manufacture or assemble cars! For two, Nigeria has an insurgency situation! If the chief of defence staff was attacked and lost his life, you would be the same person to mock and jeer and ask why wasn't he protected enough? 👊🏾🇳🇬👊🏾🇳🇬!
God bless the Nigerian armed force…..for not, one day in its history, defend the citizens of Nigerian, but rather oppress them. And I hope one day they will get rid of Boko Haram, and when they hear gunshots approaching they won’t disappear into thin air.
Many best wishes from 140 crore Indians. The army parade is very nice. The guard of honor given by women soldiers is very commendable. Once again many best wishes.
Nigeria army irritated me when my father was unlawfully dismissed no one cares, he died in the course of fighting for his right😭 this is a man who went to the civir war for the unity and peace of Nigeria he was unlawfully dismissed he died without pension and gratuities leaving behind children who were not of age. I grew up with hatred for Nigerian army because of what happened to my father.
@@flashlynecomedy7806 must you bring your problem to everyone else's pain like get over yourself' the biafra war was a painful past indeed' but wy do we have to suffer for what we weren't part of, we weren't even born yet when it happened wy do we have to be punishe or be hate up on for a crime or war fought by our fourfathers fought or committed! And the same history tells us that the igbos fought back too they weren't just looking it just happened that they didn't win two people cannot win a battle 1 has to loose I sympathise with the life lost in both war but I don't think igbos are being fair when it comes to thier past history they always operate with aggression and hatred towards other tribes which's not cool.
@@omolaniayanshola4278 if you're conversant with events happening before, during and after the war in Nigeria, you'll definitely have a changed mind about Igbos behavior against Nigeria. Possibly you read about the war, watched it's movies or heard about it as a story or one of those "tales by the moonlight" but has no experience of it whatever, so you'll not understand. But that same war story means personal experience of untold hardship of unimaginable proportion, sickness, hopelessness, pogrom, massacre and deaths of millions of loved ones - parents, husband's, wives, children, sisters, brothers, families wipes off the face of the Earth in most horrendous manner. In all these, no sympathy, reconciliation or rehabilitation in anyway given to Igbos to heal. War is not a new thing, nation's will always go to war to settle scores when that becomes inevitable. But war has rules of engagement. In wartime children, elderly ones, pregnant women are protected. Hospitals, schools, markers are not objects of Target and bombing. Pregnant women are not ripped open, civilians are not rounded up and massacred. The man complained about ill treatment given his father by Nigerian Army found it hard to forgive, what would he do if that same father was killed, his entire family is wiped out, millions of his tribesmen, women, children destroyed and surviving ones subjected under varrying institutionalized discrimination and sustained marginalization? That is exactly the feeling of most Igbos in today's Nigeria. Biafra shouldn't be a buzzword that ones mentioned people goes offensive, that experience is now part of our experience and history. Way forward is to avoid it's reoccurrence, heal it's past and reconciled for better future. So tomorrow children will also read and be told what went wrong and how it was solved.
@@baxterthird3065 I can never understand how it felt to go through all of that and I'm really sorry that that has to be anyone story and I sympathise with my igbo brothers and sisters I love the igbos I could remember when I Ist gave birth to my 1st child in lagos our neighbours where igbos and they where really good people infact the wife bathed me I have many igbo friends and we've always loved and respect each others' not ontill recently I see so much hate and the igbos coming after other races and always talking about separating themselves that's what got me angry! As you can see from this past presidential election many yoruba's didn't vote for thier own tribe because they want the igbo to be the next president and if you look at the rotation of the president yoruba only rule once or twice I think once because the ones that was supposed to be the second was assassinated the power is in the North' what I'm tying to say is that we might not live the brutal history era but we know the history and I can tell you during the war many of our yoruba four fathers secretly hides many igbos just to protect them because they have no power over the war' yest the past is unfair and brutal but pleas don't let the past affect the beautiful future ahead sooner or later we will witness igbos president of Nigeria the future will be bright for all of us
Reminds me of my secondary school days at Police Secondary School Minna and PSS Akure. You'll train for many days and the whole display is done in 4 hours
I am having the feeling that this guard of honour of the 4 star general seems to have engaged 20% of the total strength of the Army and a full 50% of its firepower.
4 stars 🌟 for what exactly everyone? *Oh for sacrificing his life on the battlefields? *Ordering his men to do justice ⚖️ for the vulnerable people? *Okay, he was in the forest defending the country against the known terrorist (bokoharam) 🙄
