[b]I agree with what you have said as it is the ultimate truth.Without advanced intelligence gathering techniques in place ,our boys will just be shooting innocent people at will and will even fall into ambush on the regular.It may however be too late for them to get good intelligence at this stage as this should have been done at least a few months before this SOE.

The DSS or DMI should have planted moles inside Boko Haram sect at least a year ago who would have been giving them info on what BK planns to do next.I however doubt that this has happened as over the past 3 years Boko haram has carried out numerous attacks successfully and caught the security forces napping.

The Nigeria factor always messes things up in the end.Our Military and security services needs a shake up at the top. Competent and well knowledgable men like me should be hired to restore some discipline to these sectors. Our Military is anything but competent ,we should be glad that we have never faced a formidable force otherwise we will realize how indiscipline,lack of foresight,lack of of commitment and planning has weakened our armed forces.Did we not get our asses kicked in Bakassi by Cameroon's army?[/b]

Talking with both sides of his mouth..

You can't deceive us Mac and I tell you won't see the border. Why chicken out!! Oh, I see.. you want information on the border security so you would be able to strategise your escape route and that of your brethren..

Don't chicken out just yet.. this is just the beginning..

Uziehot: wen u talk of intelligence,d sss wil partner wit d nigerian army intelligent corp 2 gather info.

babyosisi:

Which ashawo business
Soldier go pay?
I Pity the Young women in those towns
Solders are first class rap.ists

maryjames9: You say Nigeria border? Which one of them? Do we even know their number? Anyways, Gej has finally found his balls. Fresh air

Aksally:


For the first time in my NL life this is the first contructive statement coming from you.

SLIDE waxie: are u tryin to ask the military to tight up the borders?
Are u scared of ur brothers' insurgent now?
Come on mac, dnt deny ur haramic bloods now! U can make ur home available to them!

shymexx:
This is just laughable bordering ridiculous. Who told you the American doctrine is "don't shoot until you are shot at?" Perhaps, you're oblivious to what happened in Fallujah. NATO don't two Fs about rules of engagement - they shoot and bomb everything moving or stationery. They will bomb you back to the stone age with napalms and white phosporous just for not liking your darn face - that's how brutal they're.

They have got good intelligence, yet BH controls 27 out of the 28 LGAs area in Bornu, no? Also, how come their good intelligence hasn't stopped their barracks from being bombed and attacked by BH? And the good intelligence also allowed BH to go from being a rag-tag group with sticks and stones - to the sophisticated version with IEDs, no?

If that's what the standard for good intelligence is in the Nigeria army, then they might as well stop wasting tax payers money to fund that crap, to be honest.

However, they have captured tons of their alleged foot soldiers(including one Kabiru Sokoto and Al qaqa) yet BH has continued to grow by leaps and bounds.. So, who's fooling who? He knows who the sponsors are and he needs to stop wasting everyone's time. Arrest the mofos and blow their brains out - se fini!!

So, did the Nigerian army win the Sierra Leone civil war by itself? The tides turned when the British and Indian special forces got there... The Nigerian army only won the battle for Freetown - the rest of the war was won by a combination of many countries and the locals.

Policewoman: 6000 police officers were deployed and NOT soldiers. Get that through your thick skull, silly.

Emmadani: dis is whr we nid SAS in nigeria.Its a special military inteligence group that a equiped tecnologically,they can monitor any damn tin going on troughout the state.How many state in nigeria even av cctv security camaras to make dis work.If dis tecnology was around long ago boko haram wuld b pas tense by by now...Nigeria really av a long way to go.Military Technology wil go a long way to maintain national security.God help Nigeria o

clemmonce: what can one do to please maggots like u. wen he did not deploy soldiers to this areas u were talking now he has deployed u are stil talking. u are a maggot.

firetrap:

when we talk about intelligence agencies in Nigeria the only thing that comes to peoples mind is SSS. we have other security agencies like: D.M.I ( directorate of military intelligence), N.I.A ( National intelligence tangency), DSS ( Department of State Services also known as SSS), D.I.A (Defence Intelligence Agency), F.I.I.B (Federal Investigation and Intelligence Bureau)

firetrap:

who told you such rifles are affordable and cheap. one of such cost close to 13k dollars for the standard version without any other accessories. please don't be quick to trash the weapons we use. the US still issues its soldiers with m16s and m14s and not every AK you see is an Ak 47. we have different variants of the AK in our inventory

coogar:
NATOs are pussiës......they are only excellent when it comes to aerial assault. on land, i trust the nigerian army than the brits/americans. america lost in mogadishu, they lost in vietnam.

controlling 27 out of 28 LGA is not the doing of the nigerian army. that's exactly what i have been telling you. up until now, there hasn't really been any seriousness from the FG to combat boko haram. the war starts now, what happened in the past was just a riot!

our army is the 4th best peace-keeping force in the world. recently, the UN honoured some 1500 soldiers of ours for the excellent job they did in west africa. you really underestimate your military.

nigeria contributed the most soldiers - the administrators of ECOMOG were mostly nigerians. the nigerian army won that war.

shymexx: @Coogar
Those military toys that you posted belong to Ukraine..
Can't you their national colours on the toys?

shymexx:
Asian tigers are nothing to joke with - and the Vietnam army would defeat the Nigerian army within a month in a conventional war lool. Just take a long at the Nigerian army's inventory - and L.O.L. FML!! Comparing NATO's ground forces to Nigerian army shows you need to read more about war doctrine. Nigerian army isn't even top 5 in Africa.

But they've been there for 2 years. They have no excuse whatsoever. The only thing that has changed is that GEJ made it public - it's basically still the same thing they've been doing for 2 solid years.

Peace-keeping is different from confrontation. The "shoot when you're shot at" doctrine applies to peace-keeping and that's why Nigeria has been able to excel in that area. In a full blown war, I honestly doubt the competence and discipline of the Nigerian armed forces.

They contributed most of the soldiers and those indiscipline soldiers also fathered about 500,000 kids in that country...

They won Freetown after they were crushed by the RUF. I applaud them for winning Freetown but UNAMSIL won the war.

Emmadani: if its so fine...,but the main tin is are they well equiped technologically?...The only way most western state thrive well in national security is tru technology.

coogar:

you must be kidding - they belong to NAF!

OdionOdion: Please somebody should tell Lia Mohammend and ACN members GEJ action is for interest of Nigerians irrespetives of tribes,political persuation or religion.There is problem in Nigeria in GEJ is solving,enough of childish criticisms from Lia and ACN

firetrap:

yesman or whatever you call yourself, I believe that your a matured adult with pubic hairs. please stop comparing the Nigerian military structure with that of other nations. our so called ancient navy flagship which was hitherto listed as inoperable and grounded on Wikipedia showed up during the centenary celebration in Brazil and won an award even in the presence of aircraft carriers. Battles are won not by the amount of equipment a nation has but by how they are used

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 joke

[b]$13,000 for what? Who will buy it? The average cost of FN Scars are between $2000 to $4000 depending if it is light or heavy version as well as if accessories are included. Now that price is the price i can buy it as a civilian at the local gun store.If the Nigerian Military wants to order the full auto version ,they will sell it to them cheaper as they are buying in bulk.The most important accessories that most of the troops should have is the red dot sight.The milion our politicians steal is enough to arm the boys who go and risk their lives for us.

I am aware that Ak-47 comes in different variants but the accuracy at long range and recoil problems remain similar amongst all the variants.I own an Ak-47 amongst other weapons and i love it but i know it's limitation.The recoil affects accuracy especially in a situation where you have to use supressive fire or even if you are trying to get out of a jam.It also has a forward grip accessory which helps to stabilize the barrel for precision shooting and further reduce recoil.

The FN Scar has lighter recoil and with a longer barrel is deadly accurate meaning you use less bullets to hit your target dead center. I also like the weight distribution of the FN scar .I take my rifles to the range on the weekends and i compare both and to be honest the FN Scar is just Sweet to use.I tell you if you give our boys FN scar they will dump AK-47 in a Jiffy.

The usual excuse people make for the Ak-47 is that it never jams but in a combat situation ,soldier are more concerned about hitting their target than their weapons jamming.Even if your rifle jams ,you will switch to your pistol.The FN Scar rarely jams and only does so after it has fired quite a lot of rounds.

Let me share some videos of the FN Scar with you:

FN Scar L (Light)or FN Scar 16 (Light) .The both fire the 5.56 Nato Rounds

[b]You know the problem with some of the bloggers here,they have blind patriotism.I am a naija born, foreign trained operator.I love my country but i don't dable in tomfoolery. The Nigerian Army in it's current state can not fight many countries.

We have the money to make our boys the best but years of corruption ruined that and now we are playing catch up.Do you know that our navy just established a navy commando unit in 2005 or was 2006 ? They call them special boat services ,i mean what a stupid name? In the Us they are called seals but we name our own special boat services It shows you that those in charge of our Military are clueless. How can you name a set of naval special forces unit "special boat services"? The name does not even go with the function of the unit.

It is the same way government buildings in Nigeria are built to look like Islamic or Arabic symbols. Talk about a bunch of donkeys running the country! Aso rock looks like a huge mosque and so does the senate buildings. We have lost the plot completely and unless competent people are brought back into leadership we will remain at this level, incompetent , dumb and useless.

Take a look at India Army, those guys know what they are about. Their Government is shelling money on their military like crazy. They even partnered with Russia on the Su 50 PAK FA 5th generation fighter jet programme. This means that in about 3 years India will have one of the best fighter jets in the world that can take on any fighter jet even from USA. The Indians have intelligent leaders who understand the importance of the well-equipped military.

Iran today can give USA the middle finger because they are well armed and are about to become a nuclear power. Nigeria on the hand is accepted a world war 2 navy ship from USA as a gift, in order words the US military sees Nigeria as a dumping ground for outdated hardware. We have useless leader and useless military leader finish and klaar!

All these people who are making noise have forgotten that common Cameroon use our nose blow trumpet for bakassi and our soldiers ran for dear life,abi i lie.I have got nothing against the soldier but i am not happy with the security chiefs.We should be number one in Africa with all the money we make but we are not[/b]
