Human rights advocate Segun Awosanya, popularly known as Segalink, has disclosed that an investigation is in progress following the filming of two soldiers threatening to rape women and girls in Warri.
In Ugbuwangue, Delta state, youths had assaulted soldiers on April 2 after the death of a man named Joseph Pessu in the area for disobeying the lockdown order (read here).
In response to the soldiers’ assault, two soldiers recorded a video vowing to retaliate. They warned the Warri youths that they would rape their mothers and daughters without protection and infect them with HIV (read here).
The video has received widespread condemnation and Segalink has stated that “Investigation is ongoing and these miscreants will be arrested before the end of the day.”
He expressed: “This is barbaric and unprofessional. Needless to say that an investigation is ongoing and these miscreants will be arrested before the end of the day. The @HQNigerianArmy is an institution & with the cooperation of the public it will not be denigrated by cancerous nodes such as this.”
