NIGERIAN ARMY DEPLOY FIRST-EVER WHOLLY SPECIAL FORCES BATTALION

The Nigerian Army have deployed their first-ever battalion to be wholly manned by Special Forces troops. This came to light after video clips of a range classification exercise which took place recently at the shooting range of the 72 Paratroop Battalion, Makurdi were shown exclusively on Nigerian Television Authority’s network news.

Designated as the “Special Forces Battalion” and stationed at Makurdi, the fact that it has no numeric prefix attached to its name indicates that it is currently the only one of its kind in the Nigerian Army.

The Nigerian Army have since 2000 trained several battalion-sized contingents of Special Forces. The batch of 4,000 troops batched into five battalions where trained in-country by a 225-man contingent drawn from the 3rd Special Forces Group , Fort Bragg, North Carolina, United States of America.

The Nigerian Army commenced military training cooperation with the US Special Forces nearly a quarter of a century ago. Between 8 May 1986 and 23 December 1986, C Company , 3rd Battalion, 10th Special Forces Group trained the core of the Nigerian Army’s Airborne forces. They also trained amphibious forces in in riverine operations, tactics, maintenance and patrols.
