Following President Bola Tinubu’s gift to Super Eagles players, a Nigerian soldier, identified as Adie Paul, has faulted the President’s decision at a time when soldiers in the battlefield are not receiving such recognition.
The soldier who claimed he sustained a bullet injury while serving in the North East took to his X handle to express his frustration.
The soldier wrote, “Yet, as a soldier, I stayed in the North East fighting Boko Haram for four years plus, I was shot and I am still carrying the bullet in me till date, not even a medal from the Army/Nigeria government.”
Tinubu had on Tuesday conferred the national honour of Member of the Order of the Niger on every member of the Super Eagles team that won Silver medal at AFCON.Soldier Questions Non-Recognition As Tinubu Lavishes Gifts On Super Eagles
