       Following the arrest of a soldier who killed a tricycle driver
       in Aba, some soldiers are currently stopping motorists plying
       the Aba-Ikot Ekpene road axis of Abia State from doing so,
       Igbere TV has learnt.
       Igbere TV had reported that the victim, Chimaobi Nwaogu, was
       shot dead by Corporal Ajayi Johnson for allegedly refusing to
       give N100 bribe at a military checkpoint in the state.
       A road user who confirmed the development, Barr Ugochukwu
       Amaraizu, said the soldiers are insisting that the motorists
       must rebuild the checkpoint “destroyed” during a protest arising
       from the wanton killing.
       “They are insisting that the angry youths that protested over
       the killing of their brother, Chimaobi, must rebuild the army
       hut/shade that was destroyed on that very day”, he said.
       Meanwhile, Igbere TV had previously reported that the killer
       soldier had since been detained at the military base in Abia.
       Aliyu Yusuf, Defence Deputy Director of Information, made this
       known while confirming the arrest of the killer soldier.
       Yusuf added that disciplinary action against the corporal was in
       course, saying he would be dismissed and handed over to the
       police for prosecution, if found culpable.
