Am 100% supporting them. Our leaders should do the right things, our soldiers r nt animals that u jt butcher anyhow there r human beings like them(d leaders)

If na you nko?
Who would knowingly allow his/her loved once to go on a suicide mission? We all do everything possible to protect them.
Let the ogars at the top lead by example by leading the way into the troubled villages. Enough is enough!

yousee: i have always been skeptical of this AK47, especially when i see our armed forces with just one extra magazine taped to the gun....
in my mind, im like "when bullet finish nko" and those BH never even start shooting...

Hey...don't diss the AK. It's a gun that can operate in any weather and any climate ,and is very very effective......and cheap.

The main problem with the war in the NE is that the Boko boys are playing unorthodox. But thankfully,with the deployment of special forces to the area...they should be able to meet Boko at their game.

It's a pitiable pizza disimay thatu in countury thatu is wellu endowedu withu everly rusourcis sujazz are kiven an AK14 to gu and dies while the microscopic few is sharing the moony and...
Hon Pat over to you

Emeca: One wonders what EXACTLY d billions of dollars spent on fighting the insurgency is used for.

very good question .... my estimate:- 80% on our fat thieves .... 20% on our brave military men sent to the battle field.

u need to witness military equipment. Johnathan is a disgrace

do u know AA. I laugh u

D billions of dollars is actually used to fund and sponsor insurgency while our soldiers are left to untimely death. Image insurgents having better weapons than d soldiers, they even knw how and when d soldiers will attack......... I see a Trojan Horse!

hardbody: Just sad. Why murder these patriotic men? I am just tired of this rubbish, why don't they even resign en masse and let BH overrun the North once and for all times so that they can have the north of their dream.

You are an imbe.cile, North are the leaders of Nigeria and if Boko Haram takes over North then be prepared to be ruled by Boko haram. Besides, if they can win and seize North, seizing South will be a piece of cake to them. Am from South East though, speaking from experience.

wheesin: first lemme laugh at the post on top of my head secondly saharareporters cooked up this story

chilax man. This was not cooked up. Don't u c pics? Btw, i stay in d barracks and soldiers sent to borno either apply for discharge or they desert. Many soldiers are missing and many are dead. I m jst lucky my dad doesn't go 4 field ops.

The FG is not ready to fight this insurgency and I wonder what is stopping them to monitor how fund is being used to purchase all the necessary arms. . No wonder Camerounian soldiers do have upper hand over Boko Haram, they are better equipped with better and modern amunition.... Imagine sending a whole person with family to a war front with only 3 catridges for his rusty AK47 in the year 2014.

Our leaders playing politics with our lives.

Good development for them,
please O ,
They should also block the boko haram boys from entering into their barracks to attack them .

2015 agenda, simple as that!!

Not a dime of all that colossal amount of monies actually goes into the purposes for which it is intended, yet the president want the NASS to approve a loan of $1bill without giving account of what the monies that were previously appropriated achieved!

I weep for my country!!
What aa terrible leadership we have on our hands.

nnamdibig:
The reaction came after nearly 60 soldiers killed in Gwoza and Damboa- both in Borno State- were given a mass burial at the Maimalari Barracks Maiduguri.

WHAT??

Ebola T-shirts now avialable at www.naijaclux.ml

is that soooo!!!
now i know why govt is begging people to come and join d army, so that they will go and die. chei my beloved country.

Fighting elections
Arranging impeachments
Setting up task forces to intimidate opposition - NSDC now carry guns. DSS used to be invisible but are now carrying guns openly during elections. Go to Lagos toll gate and see another task force : the dark-shirted boys and girls waiting to go into action for 2015

But the men doing the real fighting are starved
Gov Shettima alerted us - they said it was unpatriotic propaganda by APC
Any sane man knows that there was urgency when 59 boys were killed in Burni Yadi. Jonathan did not ask for his $1billion
About 4months ago when 200+ girls were abducted, it was urgent but Jonathan did not ask for anything

After impeaching one governor he wants $1b URGENTLY
Why? He has seen a breakthrough strategy in fighting opposition governors

we are talking about better equipment and you are talking about cheap equipment.
If Boko can buy a better equipment, why can't Govt of the so called giant of Africa with the highest Economy and Oil as source of income buy it for our soldiers to tackle insurgency? Are you mad?
Look at Isreal, well equipped to tackle Hamas.. And you are telling me AK419...don't tell me nonsense.

and u think u will be save in the south, why do u think america are fighting in iraq? Alway reason beyound ur enclve

YoursGEJ:

You are a useless human being who is not even worth the space you're occupying. We are talking about people's loved ones here and you are asking them to go and die in the name of oath while your pot-bellied generals continue to loot money and buy choice properties in Abuja and to buy their kids bentleys and fly them abroad. Did you even consider the concerns of those women and children or do you not just care? If their breadwinners die while fighting without equipment, will you take care of their families? God will judge you

there bride winners made the choice to join the army. situation on ground is pathetic but our boys can't afford to stay away from the war

You mean an oath to die for a country not worth dying for?

. For us Dying for Nigerians to have safe homeland is our obligation,,No retreat No surrender

I still stand by my comment....the AK is the best rifle that you can get at a low price.

After all.,the Vietnamese drove out the USA from Vietnam in the70's with AK's.!

What is needed in the NE is a change in tactics.

Of course they also need new weapons.

I makes one ponder how a system of government with over-enough resources, territory, population (manpower) & financial availability could not tackle & obliterate thiS terror group (if it isn't coming from within).The worlds biggest arms deal (US & Saudi Arabis) was worth $60 billion, these are highly sophisticated weapons systems such as the multiple launch rocket system (MLRS), upgraded F-15 & F-16 fighter jets, upgraded M1-Abrams Tanks, newly developed drone systems & loads of other military hardware most of which will be paid for by crude oil. In our government every now & then we make over $20billion from crude oil excesses & this cash dissappears into a few hands (they claim the funds were used for maintenance of a facility that was built to last 100 years). The Saudi military being able to use this equipment underwent proper training (just like the Israelis) Saudi has a population of roughly 29 million people, whenever I get on my knees to pray & weep for my country of roughly 180million people I ask God why can't this country just change I pray for every single person & soldier that have lost their lives & loved ones in this dirty political war, I also thank GOD that we are not faced with an enemy such as ISIS of Iraq, I also pray that God should take away & destroy the causes of Nigerias problems (whoever they are). I also support the women & children locking the gates so their husbands & fathers don't go & get their asses shot-up & killed like fowls!

Emeca: One wonders what EXACTLY d billions of dollars spent on fighting the insurgency is used for.

The billions have been shared by Jona-daft and his light skinned bedmates namely Princess Stealer Oduah, Deizaini Allison-Madueke, world bank fraudster called Ngozi Okonjo-Iwella, Aruna Oteh, Kema Chikwe, Bianca Ojukwu, e.t.c so that 2015 election can be smooth.

@Cyberbaze@bushdoc9919: gentle men Ak47 gets the job done within 300m,its rugged and good to go. But we need better fire power like the MTAR or its sister the TAR. Even the AK 74 is much lighter 1kg than d 47.DSS,Navy sbs and AirforceQRF use these guns. The war is not abt the guns but the political will to end it

If the locals are not ready to rat out the terrorists amongst them then Boko Haram will continue.

Everywhere you turn, all you see are the red flags of corruption in this government. Over a trillion naira has been allocated to defence and they are seeking another billion dollars to add yet there is no evidence that the funds are being spent by the military.

Why? Because all the money has gone into the campaign fund for 2015, along with the looted $20b. That's the only logical explanation to the disappearance of these funds(except if they're being used to finance BH itself). How any sane human being can refuse to protest this government is beyond me in the face of gross incompetence, wanton looting and institutionalized corruption.

Now the men are agreeing with their women to defy the orders of the commander-in-thief...is that not a shame?

Emeca: One wonders what EXACTLY d billions of dollars spent on fighting the insurgency is used for.

have u given d billions dollars out nonsense

Nobody is saying AK is bad but in combat the AK 47 cannot match the AA because of there various effective killing range. While the AK is about 300 meters, the AA is 2.5 km. The best comparison is like using stone throwing to fight someone armed with the AK 47. Another problem is the use of night vision goggles by the enemy whereas our troops don't. I also agree to an extent on the change of tactics but the problem here is civilian casualties and collateral damage whereby air and artillery bombardment are used to soften the ground before the ground forces move in. Sincerely our officers and men are sacrificing so much in this battle and there are also minor incidences of sabotage by some of their sympathizers amongst our troops.

Now i have serious doubt about the competence of the present chief of Army staff, Things were not so bad during the time of Ihejirika. I dont know why GEJ appointed him in the first instance.
