Army Accuses Air Force Of Bombing Adamawa Checkpoints by argon500: 3:37pm On Nov 03, 2014
As the battle between the Nigerian military and the outlawed Islamic sect, Boko Haram, intensified in Adamawa State, some Army officers have accused their counterparts in the Air Force for bombarding checkpoints manned by Army.
One of the soldiers, who spoke on condition of anonymity to our correspondent on Monday in Yola, said “ We are 17 in number, manning checkpoints on the Mubi side, when an Air Force plane drop bombs on us. We all fled the area. Up until now, I cannot say where my colleagues are, because we ran in different directions.

“I managed to come to Yola through Cameroon, after trekking for some kilometres. I was assisted by some good Samaritan.”
Residents of Hong said an Air Force helicopter also dropped bombs on some residential houses in Shuwa village near the hometown of Nigerian Ambassador to Tunisia, Ambassador James Barka.
Meanwhile, as part of measures to contain the level of insecurity, the Adamawa State Government has banned the use of motorcycles in seven local government areas with immediate effect.

The affected local governments are Numan, Demsa, Girei, Song, Gombi, Hong and Fufore.
A statement by the Director, Press and Public Affairs, Government House, Yola, Mr. P.P. Elisha, said, “Security agents have been directed to ensure enforcement of the policy.”

The ousted regime of Murtala Nyako had banned the use motorcycles in Yola North, Yola South, Mubi and Michika and Madagali Local Government areas.
Security situation had deteriorated in the northern parts of Adamawa State with Mubi, the second largest town in the state, falling under the control of Boko Haram last Wednesday.

Top Military Officers are looting Security budgets, even our Air Force are making use of terrible flying coffins that lack any quality gadgets to help conduct precise air raid.

Now when the Air Support is called in - civilians, Terrorists and even our Solders will be running for their dear lives, because nobody knows where the "thrown-away" bomb will land.

There is obviously a low co-ordination between those forces. It was widely reported that Boko-Haram had taken over the town. So they probably made the wrong decision.

A leading Jonathan supporter encouraging the Air Force to bomb Nigerian Army.

So after our boys are risking their lives confronting Boko Haram, they will also have to endure Friendly fire from the Air Force.

Bros may God forgive you and your wickedness.

Whoever said traitors were part of the Nigerian army? You lose your status as a bona fide officer of the Nigerian Army when you side with the enemy. Being a traitor is a treasonable offence worldwide.
