A post about a soldier engaging in crime drew the response: “I no blame the soldier, na government fault.” While it’s true that poor welfare, underpayment, and neglect from the government contribute to frustration among soldiers, it is dangerous to absolve individuals of personal responsibility. Crime remains a choice, not a necessity. By shifting all blame to the government, such comments normalize wrongdoing and overlook the victims of these crimes. Yes, systemic issues must be fixed, but accountability should never be erased. Both the government and individuals have roles to play in ensuring discipline, integrity, and justice.
