According to the returnee couple, the soldier responded aggressively to their caution and proceeded to assault them while also inflicting damage upon their vehicle.

An activist on Twitter, Femi Adeyeye called the attention of the Nigerian Army to the unfortunate act of one of their military men.

While sharing the video, he wrote;

“A couple arriving from the US and heading to Ota, Ogun State had a brawl on the road with a soldier.
According to reports, even from witnesses, the said soldier was driving recklessly and this couple had to caution him to be careful, lest he causes an accident…

The next thing was that he pursued them, overtook, jumped out of his car in a gestapo manner, asked the woman to open the car that he needs to “discipline” both of them. I have never seen this kind of horror before, happening especially to people who were just arriving Nigeria…

after their years of sojourn abroad. This is sickening.
The @HQNigerianArmy must be compelled to look into this nonsense. Why would a soldier put lives in danger for hours, damage people’s car and threaten to kill, just because he was cautioned? What kind of society is this?

The couple remained calm in the car as seen in these videos, refused to open and the soilder, as if he’s under the influence of drugs, held on to their mirror, broke it, broke the window, smashed the body of the car.”
