the NA is a good joke.
even if bh came with a thousand men.

Sijo01:
64 men with sophisticated weapons is more than a barrack with rickety weapons.

Arch1:
Mubi had three army battalions comprising of 234 Brigade, 213 Brigade and the 21 support group; a sum total of about 3,000 soldiers. So 64 Boko Fighters chased 3,000 soldiers of the Nigerian Army away?

wazoboy:
The recent capture of Mubi town in
Adamawa State was carried out by
only 64 Boko Haram members, a
resident who fled the town said.
The man also told the BBC Hausa on
Tuesday that the insurgents told the
residents that only seven fighters
attacked the military barracks.
“The boys have been on alert, as they
continue to patrol the town,” the
resident said.
“They man all the junctions in the
town and search all those coming into
and going out of the town.
“Some of them went to a cleric and
lectured him extensively. They told the
cleric that they were able to capture
the town so easily because what they
stand for was the right path.
“They told him that only 64 of them
launched attack on Mubi and
captured the town eventually. The
boys (Boko Haram) told the cleric that
only seven people were left to handle
the town’s military barrack,” he said.
The local, who spoke after he left
Mubi, explained that there was not a
single uniformed security officer in
Mubi presently, “unless if they
changed their uniforms to civilian
ones.”
He said some jobless youths alleged
to be thieves were killed by the sect’s
members after discovering stolen
cartons of foodstuff in their houses.
“They not only amputated them, but
killed them after they found out that
parts of Mubi town were set ablaze to
enable them break into shops and
steal,” he said.
He said the insurgents, mostly youths,
have been moving freely in the town
and patroling all the streets with guns.
“When they come to you, you just
have to say ‘Allahu Akbar’ and they will
allow you to pass untouched,” he
said.

And some people will come and blame the president in this forum. Only 64 took ddown a barrack of more than 2000 soldiers. Seriously the soldiers are not afraid of Boko haram but the boko haram in colleagues form.

Sijo01:




This is an incomplete analysis.........You forgot to analyse their weaponry.

wazoboy:
But why must a town with 3000 soldiers fall so easily to whatever number of enemy attacking? At least it should have taken many days of intense fighting with heavy casualties on both sides before the town of such a number of "loyal" soldiers should fall!

A fleeing resident counted the BH and knew that their number was 64... Interesting..... Even if they invited you for a dinner, I seriously doubt if you can correctly count them all.... I do not believe this

The way and manner Mubi fell to the insurgents should really give every Nigerians a cause for concern. Why will the NA simply desert their duty post when Boko haram attacked? It is not as if they weren't expecting the attacks before, infact, the two different battalions was stationed there to ensure that the town will not fall to the insurgents when they attack. So, how come 64 ragtag militants defeated two fully armed military battalions without any serious fighting or heavy casualties? The only logical explanation is that someone at the top must have given them the order not to fight. So the question is, who gave the order? I think someone is tactically trying to prevent the 2015 election from holding or desperately trying to prevent the north east from fully participating in the election. As it stands, only one person can benefit politically from the present situation in the north east and I think the search light should be on him.
