The Nigerian Army has arrested the soldiers in the viral video threatening to molest  as well as  rape women in Warri, Delta State.

It said the personnel were arrested on Friday evening at 9 Brigade Ikeja Military Cantonment in Lagos State.

The Nigerian Army confirmed the arrest of the soldiers in a statement via its verified Twitter handle.

 The irate soldiers had threatened to molest Warri women over alleged beating of two military men following the killing of a 28-year-old Joseph Pessu by a soldier on Thursday.

    Why he lock down in Delta State when there is no case anyone infected? The borders can be shut but people should be allowed to go about their daily activities.

      Are you an illiterate or you really don’t know what is going on. You want to see a case before you lock down abi? It’s careless attitide like what you are asking now that led to what is happening today on Italy. Do you know if anyone has entered the state with it. Waka waka!!! Stay home. If Nigeria has shut down their borders immediately the cases started increasing in other countries it wouldn’t have come to this stage. Be safe.

    The above statement is a lie, if the Nigerian Army has truly arrested those soldier’s in the video what are their names and where are they from? Please this information should be made available for the general public. Thanks
