Ioannes:Mr proof searcher, keep searching for proof until u land in hell. Note that many people will get their proof in hell but toolate. U knw the proofs already, y r u still pretending, go back to PMB comments over the last 5 general elections and get ur proofs that is, if u give it an open mind. If Nig is to be America for instance, PMB would ve been jailed many yrs ago. |

Ioannes:But december will come and go and bokoharam will still be around.to me giving of that dateline is the greatest mistake of Buhari. |
Re: Boko Haram And Jonathan: The Truth Unfolds - Thisday by Nobody: 2:40pm On Oct 11, 2015 |
kessler53: it's a military tactic. putting a deadline to the whole struggle puts the military chiefs on their toes. if they don't achieve by then, they can be replaced. That's the whole point. without a timeline we will keep fighting boko haram forever. by the end of December we can ask Mr. President How far, and he in turn will be forced to turn to his military chiefs to give account. That's How a country should work. next I expect is a declaration of emergency on the power and economy sectors. put people in charge and give them timelines and deadlines to work with. responsible government. we shouldn't wait forever for the dividends of democracy na. |

Ioannes:Hmmm! Thanks for the correction on 'weeping and whipping' but I must say that your assessment of the issue is not true. 1. The north never gave GEJ the chance to prove hinself as they beg people on Buhari. 2. All the LGAs in Borno, Yobe, and Adamawa were recovered and librated before Jonathan left office, Sambisa forest was combed by soldiers. 3. GEJ govt was attacked by the north for killing Boko Haram members, even President Buhari took it personal, calling it ethnic cleansing. Murtala Nyako's utterances are still fresh in our memory. The threat to try Ihejirika at the ICC is still new. 4. GEJ govt tried amidst sabortage from the north to procure weapons for the soldiers. The refusal to sell arms to Nigeria by certain countries cannot be wished away. Moved by compassion to save this country, Jonathan's govt tried all means possible to buy arms to no avail. Reprieve only came towards the end of his regime. 5. Buhari's govt has not bought a single riffle, they are still using the ones GEJ bought which Dasuki said have not finished arriving. 6. I do not know which part of the country you are from but I did not see anyone from the South-South killing, maiming and burning properties because Buhari won and their own person lost. That is what happened when Buhari lost election... it was one problem of the north on another till GEJ handed over to Buhari. You can go ahead blaming GEJ and leaving behind the spoilers of Nigeria for all I care, but the truth is: I need to move FORWARD! However, the myriads of promises made during the campaign period are yet to be met. Ending Boko Haram is now December. We are watching!!!! |

Elose11: You are either awfully misinformed or deliberately mischievous and partisan! Buhari as a former governor of North East, a Northern and former Head of State would never encourage insurgency in Nigeria. You did not provide evidence of this. Boko Haram were a bunch of insignificant religious ideologues when GEJ became president but his incisiveness allowed BH to flourish. Under his administration, corruption was so pervasive that it was accepted as the way to do business, including in the military. Vote for Capital expenditure were diverted to personal coffers of the top brass and the other ranks were left demotivated. This was why BH took on a life of its own and became a monster that was able to capture and hold Nigerian cities in a conventional warfare. Since Buhari and APC came to office, BH have been driven out of almost all their enclaves apart from a few areas. The BH strategy is now almost entirely guerilla warfare using unsuspecting and unwilling children to commit mass murder and mayhem. It is not so much conventional warfare any more; apart from isolated cases of far-flung villages, which they raid to loot essential items for their nefarious well-being! The world's greatest super power, USA, will tell you that asymmetrical or guerilla warfare where the enemy is part and parcel of the domestic inhabitants, is the most difficult to prosecute successfully. This is because the enemy could be the next face beside you or to your left, right or back. You just don't know! If mighty is power here, you would have expected the USA military to have dismantled and totally wipe out the Taliban in Afghanistan by now, after 14 years! Instead USA is on the verge of defeat and most coalition nations have tucked tails and left both Iraq and Afghanistan. Yet, in the few months that PMB has been in power, the military appears more motivated and the insurgents are on a back foot in the entire theatre of operations. To conclude, what grew into a monstrosity under GEJ is being cowed in a few months under PMB, which should be commended. 2 Likes |

Ioannes: I agree with you that PMB and indeed Nigerians must demand performance from the service Chief, I also agree that we should give Mr. President some time. I am not however comfortable with giving a deadline on defeat of terrorist. What happens if in the first week of January BH manage to launch a devastating attack, it becomes a psychological victory for them and those sympathetic to their course. Even an average Nigerian will just make a mockery of all the laudable effort of the military. The argument will be they couldn't end terrorism in December as they promised. With the sustained effort by the military we will defeat BH but lets not give them any reason to claim a victory. |

SKYQUEST: I get your point. however, good management technique indicates that you set a goal or series of goals to meet your target . don't you find it funny how people work harder when there is a deadline? like I said I get your point. maybe this time around the Presidency and the military will keep the new deadline a secret. |
