Some Nigerians have reacted to the viral video of Ugandan paratroopers who missed their targets and fell on spectators during the country’s independence celebration.
The drills featured multirole fighter jets, paratroopers, and commandos as Uganda demonstrated its military might.
However, it escalated into a full-fledged embarrassment for President Museveni as the Military choppers dropped paratroopers at intervals, landing on the stadium pitch.
One serviceman was parachuting down and appeared to be perfectly placed to land on the pitch but suddenly folded and tugged the soldier, causing him to lose his grip on it.
A second soldier who was in mid-air also lost control of his parachute, and it flew directly onto the mobile toilets in the stadium.
