News From Camp -Commandant Decamped!

 Imagine!!!

Last night we were to have drama/dance in the hall by 8pm to 10:30pm.

When it was 8pm, the event started, some were inside, some were outside the hall, while some were in the mami market.

Around 9pm, half way to the program, some soldiers went to the mami market to chase out corpers.
Some were coming from church program also. (Normally everyone should be in the hall or around the premises of the hall for the program holding there)

So those corpers were punished, some to squat, some frog jumps. As they were serving the punishment, the camp commandant came out to supervise.

The soldiers now told the corpers to go, but the commandant felt that it wasn't enough, so he asked them to continue, not only that, he asked them to crawl on their knees.

For over 50minutes, the commandant was still instructing them to do this do that.. Some corpers were already shouting and demonstrating, then one of those he was punishing stood up to him to tell him he can't continue.

That was were the problem started ooo..
The commandant slapped the guy, and they started exchanging blows. Then corpers started protesting, throwing chairs and sachet water that they should release the corpers.

Solders started shouting that we should move back, from there, everywhere scattered. Some rushed into the hall, some were outside.. When the soldiers saw that it was getting out of hand, they took their commandant into a car and drove him off the camp becos Corpers were ready to beat that man.

Now the reason why the corpers hate the commandant so much:

He punishes to the extreme. Like imagine the worst punishment a soldier can give to a civilian.

Yesterday the man asked 3 girls to wave, clap and smile as he was walking. That one happened for my korokoro eyes. Those girls did that for 5hours, even more.

Another incident, a girl was vomiting while serving punishment, the commandant's soldiers were even begging the man to release the girl, that she's not feeling alright. The man refused oooo.

Even last night's punishment, some grown up men were crying.
Some fainted too... 

There was another time he asked a guy to salute his car for 3hours.
If you pass the commandant's house and he is outside, he must find something faulty in you.

These injustice were already registered in various minds. Last night brought out the venom in everyone.

After the whole thing, the soldiers retreated, surrounded the commandant's house. Corpers stood in front of the OBS hall, demonstrating and protesting.

Then the state coordinator came out to address us. He spoke to us gently, then he said, "we know you have been treated unjustly, we know you have been maltreated through rigorous punishments, please we plead with you to take it easy" then he said, " THE CAMP COMMANDANT HAS BEEN DECAMPED".

Everyone went to their hostels happy.
