Monday, August 4, 2025 - A Nigerian soldier has poured out his frustration in a viral video, comparing the lavish rewards given to Super Falcons players with the struggles of military personnel who risk their lives daily.
In the emotional recording, he lamented how President Tinubu
gifted each player ₦150 million and a three-bedroom flat for
winning the WAFCON tournament, while soldiers serving the nation for 35
years still end up with meagre earnings.
He noted that even if a soldier manages to serve and retire
without injury or death, the total money earned cannot match the rewards the
footballers received for just one month of playing.
The soldier narrated how many colleagues die in the line of
duty—some without salaries paid, others buried without honour. Meanwhile,
senators collect ₦29 million monthly, dwarfing a soldier’s entire career
earnings.
Despite his pain, he prayed that one day God would liberate
Nigeria from bad leadership and restore dignity to those who sacrifice for the
country.
According to him, no amount of money or power can bribe
death, and the God that delivered Israel from Egypt will someday come through
for Nigerian soldiers.
