The 7th army division may have been compromised by massive infiltration hence making it impossible to defeat Boko haram with such crop of troops .
I still maintain the Nigeria army have all it takes to defeat Boko haram we have one of the best infantry in the world, hence this undue advantage Boko Haram is having can only be as a result of the activities of fifth columists .
The Federal Government should therefore commence with the tactical disarmament and demobilization of the 7th army division in Borno state and setting up of an Elite corp in Calaber to train and equip an entirely new Division of NIGERIA ANTI TERRORIST DIVISION ( NATD) well train in counter insurgency, well equipped with modern gadgets and combat and survillence drones( members of the NATD will be drawn from the south-east, Niger Delta and south-west). We can no longer use regular soldiers to confront Boko haram.
The NATD will be deploy immediately into the North East to engage Boko haram and dislodge them from their operational bases in the town

Modern day warfare are not won with boots on the ground, the nigerian armed force has the nigerian airforce, the key to winning this war long relies on our ability to deploy fighter jets and UAVs to the combat zones in the north. The US and its allies are helping the ragtag iraqi army and numerous militias win the war against ISIS in iraq.Aint our army generals seeing this?!!!!!!.FG and the nigerian armed force should immediately look into this.From videos posted online recently, boko haram has in its possesion enough arsenal to withstand the any nigerian batallion. With well funded and coordinated air raid campaigns, boko haram''s fold will be significantly decimated. FG SHOULD STOP IMPORTING GUNS AND BOOTS BUT START IMPORTING STATE OF THE ART DRONES AND FIGHTER JETS!!!!!!!!!!!!

How was Ihejirika able to stop BH with those weapons you call outdated weapons

Guy face reality

There is sabotage that is why Ihejirika created the 7th division and carefully chose non-Arewas.

But the 7th division has being compromised when Ihejirika left office.

Suggestion is tacticaly not feasible to exclude personnel base on there ethnic background. If the military must win he war. We must use blackops to identify and neutralise source of weaponry for BH(libya,congo other black market. Politicians should provide facilitates to improve standard of living and encourtage sense of patriotism among populace the military must use AIRpower and surgical ops to terminate and destroy enemy position.
