This is what Orikinla has been calling for. Desperate times call for desperate measures. The Nigerian military can put an end to terrorism in Nigeria. As the son of a brave Nigerian soldier, I know what brave Nigerian soldiers can do to save Nigeria when the chips are down. This is long over due. Let us put an end to the bloody madness of the lunatic fringe of Muslims. 2 Likes |

I am very sorry for inhabitants of those places. Anyone who lived in Yenagoa in 2006 as well as PH in 2007-2008 can tell the story. Military occupation is the worst thing that can happen to any town. |

safarigirl: state of emergency means nobody goes in or comes out, anyone still in there better be praying to whatever he believes in Stop saying things you are not sure of. Dont want people to call you a liar. |

shymexx: i mentioned this earlier when i said borno is huge in land size but 70% of that land mass is desert. jonathan need drones. at the same time, i like the presence of the military out there. this would tell boko haram and the crooked politicians backing them that the end is nigh.
you underestimate the nigerian troops if you think they don't know where to look. all they needed was the commander-in-chief to give the order. the bureaucracy has been shelved now, jonathan is at war with terror and i am backing him 110% on this one. 1 Like |

GEJ should just grant Borno, Yobe and Adamawa independence and stop wasting money and resources trying to stop this insurgency. The citizens of these states in some ways support and condone the activities of this fanatics. Funny thing is boko still want one Nigeria like their elder sponsors inorder to still have access to free oil loot. Hypocrites. |

@Abbey2samI live in adamawa state, there is no such tin as state of emergency here, even if there is, maybe, just maybe in mubi, a local government close to maiduguiri..... Activities in adamawa state still remain the same, I was in town yesterday(I.e jimeta) and I never saw any soldier or air force or Sss or JTF been deployed. #fact Reply:I pity you,what you should be thinking of is how to leave Maiduguiri and not to be lookin whether soidier are deployed or not Now that you can still move around you better flee.I bet you if this soildiers Lock down movement.you might be mistaking for a boko harmite |

liberty300: About 2,000 security operatives and military hardware, including fighter jets have been deployed to Maiduguri ahead of yesterday’s declaration of State of Emergency.Good. Those Islamists must be taught a lesson not to declare a republic within a republic. Hope they deployed commanders in the likes of Benjamin Adekunle a.k.a the scorpion, Murtala Ramat Mohammed e.t.c. We will require such ruthless officers to crush the Jihadist rebellion8-). UP GEJ, UP PDP... |

Those 3 states should be leveled. Whoever has the mind to accommodate terrorists should be ready to face the outcome of such act. Kill them all, then the sane southerners will take over those states and develop them. When there are more southern population in a state, peace will reign |

[b]If i were the defence minister i would ensure that our soldiers have the latest military gear most especially armored tactical gear like the one below: The above cost less than a thousand dollars per soldier. I will also arm all our combatant soldiers with the latest and most accurate assault rifles like FN Scar Lite and heavy loaded with extra. This is my favorite rifle as it is has tons of accessories and is extremely accurate especially with a longer barrel.With this riffle you won't waste bullets.One bullet one kill.It is favored by a lot of modern militaries as it is very affordable, accurate and durable.

coogar: 70% desert is what makes the work of the soldiers more difficult. We need to take a cue from the Algerians and how they were able to defeat AQIM. Heck, about a quarter of the budget at N921.91 Billion was set aside for defence - how come we're still running with obsolete military gadgets? We need intelligence gathering and if he's serious about BH - he should go after their sponsors. I'm darn sure he knows who they're. Cut off the head of the snake and all these indoctrinated youths would go home. you underestimate the nigerian troops if you think they don't know where to look. all they needed was the commander-in-chief to give the order. the bureaucracy has been shelved now, jonathan is at war with terror and i am backing him 110% on this one. I'm not underestimating them, they just don't have the capabilities against asymmetric warfare. The militancy in Niger Delta and the ongoing madness with BH have already proven that. You and I know that 2,000 troops won't change anything...This is just cheap politics, to be honest. These clowns aren't serious about bringing peace to the country. The country is crumbling and heading towards disintegration yet these people have continued to play politics with everything. It's just sad. PS: all the duffers on the thread are free to attack me and call me anything, but I'll continue to speak the truth. 1 Like |

splashbaby: US Boston Marathon bombing: 2 killed and more than 6000 officers deployed. Nigeria Boko Haram bombing so far: Over 4000 killed and 2000 officers deployed plus probably another 2000 already on ground making 4000. GEJ is a joke6000 police officers were deployed and NOT soldiers. Get that through your thick skull, silly. |

declaring state of emergency sounds like a step in the right direction but security has gone past mounting road blocks and deploying more soldiers i think the goverment should pay more attention to intelligence gathering in other to maximize its firepower advantage because without specufuc and accurate intelligence (which the goverment is seeminly failing in this regard) its firepower advantage becomes useless. |

I will also make sure that each squad has at least one master stealth sniper armed with the latest SRS sniper rifle with silencer and camouflaged muzzle. |

shymexx: actually, 70% desert makes their job easier..... there are no caves or rocks like afghanistan. you forget the troops would be aided with air support. boko haram should have been extinguished long before they developed wings. now that jonathan has shown some cojones, expect this war to finish by august!
naija troops have the intelligence. they know the enclaves and the clans responsible for this. it's the bureaucracy at the top level that has prevented an all out war since. the hindrance is gone now, just watch!
it would take approximately 2 weeks for the nigerian army to crush boko haram in borno state. this is the nigerian army we are talking about. their pedigree in peace keeping all over war-torn african states are legendary. speak to a liberian or someone from sierra leone about our army - the nigerian army is the best in africa on land!
just wait and see........ how can you not see JTF have had their hands tied behind their back since by the politics of the northern governors. every boko haram member arrested by the JTF were broken out of prison by the northern governors......so it's been putting water in a basket all this while. all that has changed now - the army are taking over! 3 Likes |

Orikinla: This is what Orikinla has been calling for. You started very well and ended up badly...... What has (lunatic fringe of muslims)got to do with bad people fighting against the good people of Nigeria. I am a Christian, A Southerner...... I have always and will always campaign against analysis that's based on religion / ethincity sentiments, either to promotes/demotes any of them, when it comes to National issues or issues that's between evil/good, crime/upholding law, good/bad. You can analysis issues effectively without bringing in religion / ethnicity. 2 Likes |

Ultimately, BH can't be defeated without good intelligence and even deploying 100,000 troops without required intelligence is zero. What we are dealing with sounds more of an intelligence war than a conventional one. |
Re: 2,000 Soldiers, Jets Deployed To Borno by Rooneyboy(m): 11:48am On May 15, 2013 |
