In the last one week the Nigerian Army has been recording successes in its fight against Boko Haram. Every right-thinking person would want to know the reason behind the success of our soldiers against the insurgents who had earlier overpowered them, to the extent of taking their (the army) armoured tanks. So far, there has been no report of our soldiers taking delivery of any weapon. The attempt at buying weapons from South Africa was foiled by the airport authority in that country, who said it was illegal. The explanation giving by Nigeria for wanting to buy weapons was that the United States had prevented it from buying arms, including a jet from Israel.
What is the secret of our sudden success?

Its In Preparation For GEJ 2nd Term...This Is Politics

2015!!!

Its apparent GEJ is involved in all these. He's trying to win your hearts fro the 2015 elections. Don't be deceived by this tyrant.

I can imagine how difficult it is to preside over a country like Nigeria.
So because our armed forces are wining the war against insurgency, you have to attribute it to some sort of conspiracy for the presidency and politics of 2015.
Would you we rather continue with the bad news of Boko haram taking over towns daily?

Kudos to our commander in chief and the Nig army

what I care about is peace, unity, progress and greatness of this great country Nigeria

The reason why the army has been successful for a while now is simply because They have been fighting from a defensive position KONDUGA. let them try their luck by pushing offensive towards BAMA or towards Gwoza. Boko haram have been holding theiir positions in the towns they have captured by their continuous offensive on Konduga

Do we need any explanation or peaceful Nigeria? For peaceful shake let not politicise every thing, PDP or APC. All we want is peace. God bless Nigeria.

reasons
1, d money seized in sA is meant for arms for BH boys hence there ran out of armo and our army capitalised on dat n went on an offensive.
2. if d arms deal had went smoothly.... our armies would have been d greater casualty. ...
in conclusion, God made it possible for us.

elections

also possibly explains sudden "victory" over Ebola

Yes just one:

ELECTION!

They were unable to deliver the latest consignment of arms and ammunition to Boko haram because, South africa seized their plane.
Also ,the cameroun was provoked to launch an incursion into nigeria.

1-Troops in the field are taking the fight to insurgents with NO improvement in weaponry / welfare
2 political backers of BH are scaling down support so as to help a certain candidate use it as fall as leverage

You have said it all, that is simply the answer.
Boko haram's method have moved from hit and run attacks to capturing of towns a la ISIS.
They presently control 25 towns/villages and are desperately trying to capture Maiduguri via Konduga, the army has concenterated all its resources there.

Omololu007: Wen will d nigrian army liberate bama,gwoza,sambisa forest etc,from boko haram

Only then can we say they are winning the battle.

you should be happy they army is winning the war

not asking for reasons why they are winning

Who is the lesser of 2 devils between Gej and Buhari??

Exactly, as Boko Haram sponsors have been exposed and can no longer continue supporting them so the army is winning.

GEJ is beat by boko haram dem a go talk
GEJ is beating boko haram dem a go talk

This is why I tell people that APC leaders and attack dogs are EVIL. In fact, they represent the greatest EVIL to befall mankind since creation.

When Nigerians are celebrating the recent few successes of the NIGERIAN military against the demons called BokoHaram and wishing the military more successes, APC attack dogs are seeking to make negative propaganda out of it.

Death to APC!!

The reason is simple and has no political under-tone.Bokoharam left their turf (asymmetric warfare) and felt they could beat the NA on their own turf (conventional warfare).Even when they recorded little successes here and there,I knew it was only a matter of time for them crumble.

The moment they started to claim territories for themselves,they left themselves exposed.

The main reason why boko haram thrived before was lack of WILLL POWER. Election period is here and all of a sudden the zeal to show people we have a president ( and that we have had all along) became strong. Desperate times for a disappointing man.

He wants a second term hence he is trying to be seen as a man who has clues. It is obvious they allowed it thrive for their own selfish gain all along.

Or what exactly has changed between now and 2 years ago or even last year?

People have been saying Boko haram will be dealt with once election is nearer and you think it is an accident that it is happening now? It is an accident that power supply has improved in the last 1 month?

Can you tell us what exactly has changed between now and 2 years ago? Go ahead and do it.

I am sorry but you are so daft that I think the earlier you leave this earth the better for the earth. Or how can someone like you bring fort offspring that are as daft as yourself and we expect the world to be better?

Didn't the government claim responsibility for the illegal movement of our money to SA?

I don't believe in abortion but when people like you string up once in a while, it gives me second thought. To think your mom asked to borrow some money to eliminate you then and I talked her out of it. I regret it now.

Your stupidity is legendary.

Of about the 12 towns under Boko Haram, is it not only Kodunga that our soldiers have taken?

Ask yourselves, why is Asari Dokubo suddenly gone mute? Where is he?

Why has the FG and Jonathan kept mute about the two Nigerians detained in South Africa over this money laundering issue?

This is because Asari Dokubo is one of the Nigerians on that private jet who were sent to buy arms! There is a lot to this Boko Haram menace which Jonathan is strongly a part of.

You've said it all,I don't have to add one more word.
When you move from hide and seek to taking and holding territory, the territory holds you so to speak you now have the same vulnerabilities a normal army would have.
One small problem though:they are no where near a normal army
