I hear the Nigerian army was pushed out of Damboa town and they only hold the road leading to Maiduguri.

Despite Nigerian Government sponsored disinformation, sources on both sides confirm that 70% of Damboa Town is under rebel control, 10% is held by the Army, while 20% is contested.

However the situation is still very fluid and can change at any time. But as now, the whole of Damboa Town and surrounding areas are controlled by the rebels except the highway to Maiduguri.

NB: on the evening of Friday 8th and the morning of Saturday 9th insurgent counter-attacks pushed the Army out of Damboa totally and resulted in a retreat by the soldiers to Government-held positions along the highway to Maiduguri the state capital. Two US Army advisors were reportedly present at during the Nigerian Army’s assault, along with an unidentified American ‘civilian’ who was introduced as ‘William Reid’.

They hardly report anything good about our Military effort against terorism...
Well, I can't really blame them. Nigerian military are mostly good at oppressing innocent civilians. eg, punishing people that wears camouflage, harassing people that holds discord with them, etc.

Re: Nigerian Troops Recapture Damboa : Photos by Nihilist: 6:50pm On Aug 10, 2014
You mean nobody has actually questioned this photo over 4 pages of comments?

How do we know that that is Damboa?

I see a burnt out truck, a road, a hole in the road, and some men with guns...and nothing to indicate anything at all.

Not even a single house?

People so dearly want to believe that Boko Haram is being defeated that they are unable to engage their critical faculties. It has been the same story for years on this forum. I created a thread that explores the possibility that things are much worse than Nigerians realise with foreign jihadists joining the fight. https://www.nairaland.com/1851652/nigerians-sleep-towns-borno-fall. The impression I get is that the Nigerian army only holds the highway to Maiduguri and that Damboa itself is firmly in the hands of jihadists - the Nigerian army can always release pictures of Damboa town itself if they beg to differ.

lakhadimar: This report is a lie from the defence HQ the same way they initially lied that they'v rescued the abducted chibok girls.

Damboa is still in the firm grip of Boko Haram so also is Gwoza and Bama

your source sir?

Tstark: Very undisciplined unit, at no point in time is soldier supposed to hold his weapon as if he's carry his hoe to a farm. He should have both hands on his rifle at all times in a combat zone. Google pictures of real armies and you will see how these guys look like farmers with guns in comparison.

you know why ghanians life expectancy is higher than nigerians? because people like you will pick useless fault in something. People are debating on how true the info is, your own concern is how the gun is being handled. If you want to know how well they handle their gun, go to one of their check point and scream "I am Boko-haram".

Come here again and post your experience

how far oga? How else do u want them to hold dia guns? The Nigerian army personnel are very disciplined in that area. I have watched them closely. If u ever hear of accidental discharge from a soldier, its a lie. These guys are very good at what they do. Lets encourage them.
