[size=20pt]1. USA was not contracted , they offered at a fee or not

2. Hardware being used ? if you had 200 armored tanks , taking one or two out would not affect the front line , I believe soldiers will be trained in batch , infantry or group , the whole Nigerian Army can't be trained at once. Mùmú people talking about all heavy weapons and equipments that response if for you

3. Hardware being used ? So there's hardware ? Why did they take $15M to South Africa ?

4. You expect USA to airlift choppers and armored tanks to Nigeria. Eehweeeeeh , Nothing we no go see , Nigeria isn't that special even if we are paying billions for training


Abi you think USA na Cotonou ?
FYI it was US marines that hinted and arrested nationals of Niger Republic who were making IED's and bombs for Boko haram [/size]



dBard:



Sometimes you should try understanding issues before commenting
The issue here is the Americans are just bin ridiculous.
They were contracted for training n, like most trainings, the trainers come with part/all of their equipment.
Expecting the F.g t move hardware currently in use, when u can comfortably provide such, because of their stand on provision of lethal equipment (? Leah ammendment), is just bin silly.
Am with d f.g on dis one

Good move

So they expect Nigeria to withdraw heavy weapons used in fighting BH for training.

What do they expect Nigeria to fight BH with.?




Fellow Nigerians


Are we sure US is not the main sponsor of BH

Are we sure US is not viewing Nigeria as a sleeping giant that must be destroyed now in order to eliminate a future rival like China India.


Am not against breakup but killing innocent Northern Christians and taking over their ancestral land without their support is evil.


Biafrans I hope we are watching and learning.


Biafrans we must develop our indigenous military technology by encouraging our higher institutions to develop indigenous military technology to counter threats like this.


Keep asking for Biafra nation without clamouring or resulting for/to war is d best thing you can give those innocent women and children in those villages in Biafra nation. Pls, no amount of military technology would save your people from being killed like chickens. You can't do better than Germany and Japan in terms of technology but look at what happen to their people at second world war..... Peace is always a better option.

You need to see the Maanifesto of the Comitee Of 300 the U.S goverment is working for for you to understand in part what is going on in Nigeria via Boko-Haram which U.S goverment is heavily equiping and openly surpporting directly and indirectly through conspirtors in Nigeria.
They have marked Nigeria which they term "Strategic Country" for sectional destruction and refer to it major inhabitants as "Useless Eaters" that must bé culled.
So do not bé surprised by there demand up there that military machines should bé withdrawn b4 d 3rd phase of the fucking training can commence.
Crazy Comittee Of 300, useless Club Of Rome, abyss is your home and there you shall go! Amen.

u better believe, my brother. America had said time and time again that nigeria will break up. The latest of such diabolical prediction was that the country would brakeup in 2015, u c? so, they would do everything humanly possible to ensure that this happened. thats why they refused to sell us weapons to deal with boko haram. thats d logic. they never liked us because, they percieved that we are taking over the policeman issue in africa,and this doesnt go down well with the anglozionists-cum United states of satan and its NATO war machine. Oh, and i forgot to mention thier refusal to give us ebola vaccine. They have never liked us,. But God is the ultimate. We succeeded ebola, and this one we also be a thing of d past. the USA can go and eat shit. we dont need them.

Germany and Japan were the aggressor nations that were committing atrocities.

Biafra is a people who wants to live on their own and determine their destiny.


Why is it difficult for people like you to understand.


Is one Nigeria by force.?

You and your ethnic group can decide to form one Nigeria with other interested groups.

To me nigeria government is not serious

"At a press briefing on Tuesday, State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki stated that in the past six months, the United States has provided and approved sales of military equipment to Nigeria’s armed forces.
She said the country has also shared intelligence with Nigeria, began training a new army battalion and held numerous high-level discussions with Nigerian authorities on additional measures to best address the Boko Haram threat.
Psaki said the only denial was the transfer of some Cobra attack helicopters to Nigeria “due to concerns about Nigeria’s ability to use and maintain this type of helicopter in its effort against Boko Haram and ongoing concerns about the Nigerian military’s protection of civilians when conducting military operations.”".
Re: Why Nigeria Cancelled US Military Training – FG by jamace(m): 12:30pm On Dec 05, 2014
As far as I'm concerned, the US is just using the training to monitor the Nigerian military for selfish purpose. The US is using the avenue to boost its ego of being the world power and to keep other countries who have genuine interest to assist Nigeria away. US should stop fooling Nigerians.

u have said it all,brother,needless to say that ur fears and suspiction of the USA towards nigeria and bokoharam, are well founded. They have said before that naija will breakup in 2015, after all such previous predictions fails to materialize. hence, they are doing everything to ensure the break up. from refusing to give us ebola vaccine, refusing to sell us weapons to tackle boko haram, and now asking us to withdraw d little ones we have from d war front, so that bokoharam can have a killing spree. Infact, the USA IS THE CHIEF OF ALL TERRORISTS. THEY CREATED TERORISTS BODIES LIKE ALQAEDA AND ISIS TO FORMENT TROUBLE, SO THAT THEY CAN JUSTIFY THEIR SATANIC ACTS OF WAR to achieve thier aim of a new world order based on thier own laws and dictates. And where they fail, they ensure chaos, by sponsoring false flag operations and colour revolutions, to overthrow legitimate and resisting governments. examples are libya, iraq, syria, and now ukrain,aimed to get at moscow. Only russia and China are standingt tall. I tell u d truth.... boko haram is a mission of the CIA to ensure d destruction of a sleeping giant...Nigeria. But they forgot that God owns the final say in d heavens and d earth.

The US do not understand Africa let alone Nigeria

True strength do not rest on numbers but brain.

Unknown to US what is keeping Africa down is a faulty colonial structure that placed retrogressive African tribes over progressive African tribes.

The fact remains that even if Nigeria breakup, the progressive Nigerian tribes will form an alliance with each other and any other progressive African tribe in other African countries to protect their interest against neocolonialism.

Perhaps the US wants Nigerian Army to remove those weapons that they use to maim and kill ordinary civilians and show them how to properly use them on actual enemies instead.

thank God u used d word 'perhaps', which means,u are not too sure. otherwise, where in d world have u seen a country in war withdrawing its equipments from d battle front, for training else where? not to mention when d country dont have enough? and dont forget they have refused to sell us weapons.. so nobody should try justify d USA. they want us to breakup

Why Nigeria cancelled US military training – FG

on December 05, 2014 / in News 12:46 am

By Caleb Ayansina

ABUJA—The Federal Government, yesterday, gave reason for the cancellation of the training of Nigerian soldiers by American security experts, attributing it to logistic problem.

The U.S. Government, through its Embassy in Abuja on Monday said in a statement that “At the request of the Nigerian government, the United States will discontinue its training of a Nigerian Army battalion.”

But Nigerian government explained that it did not cancel the training, but that the condition placed down by US government was not healthy for the security of lives and property of its citizens, particularly those in the north east region.

The conditions, according to it, include withdrawing of some military equipment from the battle field, so that the American could use them to train the soldiers.

The Coordinator of the National Information Centre, Mr. Mike Omeri, who stated this during a routine briefing on security situation in the country, in Abuja, said the government would not expose its citizens at the mercy of insurgents because it wants to train its solders.

However, Omeri maintained that the two countries were not at variance as being insinuated by some people in the country. “Nigeria and America have strong military relation till date. It’s still ongoing and strong,” he said, disclosing that Nigerian soldiers had concluded two phases of the training out of the three.

Omeri explained that the third phase had to do with logistical components which the Americas did not provide but instead relied on Nigerian Military equipments, which was currently in use in the troubled states.

1. This statement shows ur apparent ignorance of what a contract is... Google is ur friend use it.
2. So a logistics training involving a battalion will involve 1/2 tanks Shows u don't even understand wat logistics in military parlance means. If ur training involves coordination btw military units, then ur going to need d necessary wares, enuff t simulate a battlefield scenario and that may require displacing assets n d ppl t operate them from d front.
3. Ignorant question, completely lacking in intelligence. Lemme help tho; the hardware Nigeria had was meant for warfare of a conventional setting but wit d unconventional tactic of d b.hs, dres need f more flexible platforms t upgrade. Even ur god d U.S had t scramble f hardware after their initial embarrassment in d 2nd phase of d iraqi war.
4. Another thoughtless post. So d much touted non-lethal military equipment was not, airlifted abi Or it was sent via flashshare undecided

Vladimir Putin has sanctions on Russia from every part of the world for some misconducts , Security Advisers and GCFR can't find another country , why Russia ?

But.

USA Michelle Obama took part in Bringbackourgirls campaign. Insignificant right ?
US buys Nigerian crude
US sent troops during crises
Us sent troops recently to help with boko haram
US pleads Nigeria's cause at IMF and World bank.
US recovers and returns funds politicians stole to Nigeria

The simple truth is Russia doesn't want our downfall. Russia wasn't the country that predicted our disintegration. Not only did usa predict that, they are also doing everything possible to make sure their prediction happens.

What has usa done for Nigeria, please state them.

Gorilla warfare is a specialized warfare which the Nigerian Army (NA) has been training its men for many years back both local and foreign courses, but due to the fact that the NA was not fully equipped in a large scale as the case is today. however the NA can defend the territorial integrity of the country against external aggression based on its size and the size of its neighboring countries.
