@ siriusblack and other guys in NE, God will continue to protect you. God will give you guys power to claim victory over BH fighters,supporters and Leaders
Re: Nigerian Army's Campaign In The North Eastern Theatre (Photos) by shakol91(m): 8:22am On Jul 14, 2014
I love this thread. God bless NA guys on the front line. Like someone suggested not to deploy full military hardware to NE because of fear of sabotage. I believe it's high time FG gives NAF the full support in procuring excellent BIRDS to counter insurgency and support ground troops in NE. Though I'm not a military guy,but I believe it whould be an added advantage to wipe out insurgency completly because according to reports BH carries out their attacks in Mid-nights. Troops should be trained and provided tools to counter BH attacks in Mid-night by supplying night google,laser rifle and better night strategies/tactics should be adopted. BH will never have peace (Amen)

OP, God bless you guys. Reading this thread just made me think about all who have been made widows/widowers, fatherless/motherless by some senseless wimp called boko harm. Breadwinners cut short in their prime! We may get agitated when we think the army is not doing enough. With this thread we can confirm that there are men and women who are genuinely keeping awake for other civilians to sleep. We know that there are bad eggs though and this is always expected. But we shall overcome this menace.

To the fallen soldiers, sleep on, and the living we wish Godspeed.

For the soldiers who unnecessarily harass and beat up civilians on the street of Lagos and elsewhere, Shame On You! Take a cue from the gallant soldiers who through all the odds are still making us proud.

Is there a way to stop ao they get raw materials dey use in making bombs? Do the govt knw d raw materials dey use in making d bomb?

Yes..in small numbers.. But they hardly face combat..because the Infantry and Armoured Corps have very little number of women...most are clerical staff.

Don't mind those shameless thugs...Those idiots are a disgrace to the Army...The 90s mentality of military rule is still in some of them...To Nigerians: If you get harassed or assaulted by any soldier, pls ensure you get video evidence and submit a FORMAL report to the assailant's Unit..The Military Police will do its work..The madness has to stop.

It depends...the 7th Infantry Divison, Maiduguri's sole responsibilty for now is the ongoing war agains terror...it has several battalions under it..SF battalions, infantry battalions and about 2 Tank battalions...Other brigades and battalions all over the country too serve tours of duty in Maiduguri from time to time..Recently, a brigade from Lagos moved here..when their mission is over, they will return...The word "Corps" is just a general name for branches..and NO, it is not all soldiers being recruited that are going to the North East.

How big is Sambisa? Before the last thread got wiped by the data loss, I said how big Sambisa is...someone said that the Army is just giving excuses...The Chibok girls could be Anywhere!....Sambisa Games Reserve covers 63,000sqkm...that is 40 times the size of London, 20 times the size of Lagos state and...Wait for it.......,,,, FAAR bigger than the entire south-west Nigeria....NOW, people complain.,,"Foolish army, why can't they just Invade ehn?" Or Why can't the Air force just bomb the place joor"...let me tell you, if the Army invades Sambisa, entire Battalions will be wiped off..What is needed is high-level military tactics and the best equipment the World has to offer...Sambisa is not even a forest...its more like a savannah grassland,...pasture here, desert there..and so on...the place stretches across 4 states in the North East and can swallow an entire Division...Going into Sambisa without Air cover is near-suicide, but that is what the Proud Professionals of the Army have been doing so far..Even if the NAF drops hundreds of bombs into sambisa, its a waste of time...Sambisa, my brother, is a FORTRESS.

@Sirirublack

I strongly believe it is time for Nigeria military high command come up with new innovation to make out military a formidable fighting force. One of the innovation is for the Army, the Navy to have their air wings as obtainable in other clans.

This is a Story that can Weaken a Giant. Our Soldiers are dying in their Numbers. The ones that tried to protest are charged for Mutiny. No Air Power to support ground troops. Sabotage every where. Top Millitary Brass are smiling to Banks.
What is happening in NA is a reflection of the insincerity of the entire country.
Believe it or not

Sir to be frank with you

BH plan was to lure our troops into Sambisa, decimate them which will weaken our defence and then overrun Nigeria directly or through a coup.

Correct me if I am wrong

Those sponsoring " Bring back our Girls " are part of BH.


If I am right, don't you think its time to secretly kidnap, hide and if necessary kill some people who have link to BH.
