PATRIOTIC SOJA ($TSIR-MUNCHAN)@Pressman2040
Let me speak plainly here as a soldier.
Zagazola just broke this down better than most commentators ever will. Justice Mark Chidiebere didn't cross the line because he criticised the military. He crossed it when he allegedly started having private conversations with serving soldiers about "change of government."
That is not activism. That is not free speech. That is a red flag wrapped in a conspiracy.
Let me make this clear for everyone in the back: any civilian who tries to pull a serving soldier into discussions about overthrowing the government is not a journalist. They are not a blogger. They are not a citizen activist.
They are a security threat.
And no military in the world not America, not Britain, not Nigeria will ignore that.
So while people argue about free speech, we soldiers are thinking about something else: what happens if a young, frustrated soldier actually listens? What happens if an illegal order is given? What happens if that conversation leads to real action?
That is why the DSS stepped in. Not to silence opinions. To prevent a potential explosion.
Content creators need to understand something: your phone is not a shield. Your follower count is not immunity. When you cross from criticising policy to courting mutiny, you become a problem that the state is duty‑bound to solve.
Zagazola said the line is not always visible but it is very real. Let me add: if you cannot see it, stay far away from it.
Because the consequences will not care about your intentions. They will care about what you did.
Be wise. 🇳🇬
