mickyarams: The Nigeria president should get a noble price for being so dumb. The guy is just too daft to do anything. You have to feel sorry for those poor soldiers when all their bosses are glorified morons. How can you send those guys to war with inadequate weapons, how can the soldiers that are putting their lives on the line have to be begging the government for armours and weapons. Over 200 girls have been missing from this country for over 4 months now and our president is busy celebrating with the governor of Osun state over their election victory with over 5000 soldiers guarding them. This country is just a joke.

"Yes Nigerian Soldiers Escaped to Cameroon and So What? For the sake of our fallen Soldiers, Someone should speak up.True Security budget is over a Trillion Naira every year. Only someone who is out to play mischief would think the military get 1 Trillion annually. Less than 5% of the money is ever spent on the brave men and women who chose to sacrifice for Nigeria. Less on weapon or training.

Do people know how many round of bullets you need in a year to train a battalion? We don't even have 'waste bullets' for new recruits. We are back to the days of using mock weapons.The Commander in Chief Goodluck Jonathan , Finance Minister and Defence Chiefs should make the breakdown available to Nigerians. Nigerians should demand a breakdown on how the budget on Security are being spent. As we are today the Army does not have ANY new set of hardware or weaponry.

The Airforce can only boast of just ONE serviceable fighter jet. We have more Presidential Jets, more private jets by Governors and contractors than we have a jet to defend our homeland. During one of the operations in Borno. Terrorists attacked our soldiers, they could not call for Air Support, young men and 11 female medical support staff fought and gave up to the superior fire power of the terrorists, they are Nigerians from every tribe.

Boko Harram slaughtered them and we have a defence spokesperson and Chief of Defence who would not present our terrible situation to the Commander in Chief
Do not blame military men who flee and do not blame those who earlier today made for Cameroon. It is not Cowardice. You do not fight terrorists with your obsolete weapons and see Commanders do nothing but remain contractors in our Nations capital.

Corruption is killing Nigeria but it is killing our military more. We are all in the mess together, as you make fun of our brave men and women for 'running away' from battle, you are poking fun at yourself!

When last you check your temperature OP?!

ISpiksDaTroof: But the Ibos refuse to fight and are some of the biggest deserters. Remember the Ibo police chief from Abia that fainted and upon revival promptly resigned after finding out he was posted to Borno? Would you trust such a fella with your war effort?

EasternLeopard:

Why should we fight when some muslims are sabotaging the war effort

Get muslims out of the campaign and see what will become of BH

Remember

We have lots of Ihejirikas amongst Igbos

Jakpon: You are the stup1d chap here. You are not only stup1d, you are also silly.

Is Gwoza Local Government not in the complete control of Boko Haram with all the military formations therein dislodged? What is stopping the NA from carrying out an Air Raid over Gwoza that has been in the control of Boko Haram for the past two weeks?

Haywhymido: Nigeria is a disgrace to anything call a country. Nothing works here. It really a pain in d a.s.s

We’re now looking at a military force that’s, quite frankly, becoming afraid to even engage, said Alice Friend, the Pentagon’s principal director for African affairs. The Nigerian military has the same challenges with corruption that every other institution in Nigeria does. Much of the funding that goes to the Nigerian military is skimmed off the top, if you will.

komekn:

I do.

Its a question of the type of assets you have, precision weaponry with connectivity will see APC's, IFV's direct air assets after laser painting targets for precision bombs to be guided.

In addition if you have attack helicopters (which we should really have at least 40) with thermal imaging you can literally pin point enemy combatants on the ground collectively and individually.

The reality is YOU DON'T so your exposing your complete lack of knowledge in this regard.
