you are talking about sniper and air support or advancement when the video is too short to credibly access the situation.

No Brigade fights without snipers..if the video did not show one does not mean there wasnt one. Air support could have been enroute but the video wasnt long enough to show that....

Talking about advancement I am sure you can see they are in the middle of a Boko haram sandwich and were shooting in 2 directions so how could they advance when both directions are blocked off.

My professional assessment is that they probably walked into an ambush so were temporarily disorganised which was when the video was being shot but they were doing a good job holding their position.

War fronts is not a video game...its real and scary and you never see the bullet that kills you until it hits you... Stop being condemning analytically..rather pray for them which I am sure you would have been doing if your brother was trapped in that ambush.

After watching this clip, at first I thought they were police, only to look again and saw its soldiers now I see why we are not winning the war, no strategy, no standby, no back up, wasting bullets on one person. May God help us

Are they being fired upon from both sides? That would be weird cos in such a situation, I doubt anyone would have the composure to do a recording.

You observed like I did, why would they want to be ambushed? Firing from both sides and someone is busy recording.

This bh is just a scam. Imagine the waste of bullets... The soldiers don't even have binoculars to sight the lone gun man.
All they do is assume that the hail of bullets will possibly hit the lone gun man.
Nigeria has along way to go

Eye dey pain you

you no fit see one of them get binocular

Those soldiers are too left exposed to enemy fire....just a single bokoharam sniper in a vantage position will do a lot of harm to them . angry

It'd be hard for a sniper to take position in that video and go away happily...he muat be hit by a stray or recocheted bullet(s).

Being patriotic and supportive of our armed forces doesnt mean we shouldnt criticize.

This is nothing close to how a modern fighting force should be.

Zero protective gear, no comms, no backup, no fighting or appropriate cover formations. The enemy position didnt seem to be well numbered nor even returning fire, some of the soldiers would have been hit if so.

Haba, do you expect them to call in air support over a few militants armed with only light weapons (as it appears to be). What they seem to lack are snipers, binoculars and the necessary protective vests.

They have comms and no back up walks alongaide the main brigade so do not expect to see a back up with them in the video....They were making the best use of the cover available which is a one sides trench so at least they have cover on one side.

When caught in an ambush the first reaction is to go haywire with bullets as this would also force the enemy to go in deep and protect themselves from ricochets and in that situation you have time to regroup and take adequate formations which is what they were doing if you watch the video well and look down the line from where the video man is...those ones were beginning to take on the defence attack diamond position.

There was gunfire from the enemy but perhaps the enemy were also outgunned and outmanned and lack the profeasional service of a sniper which is a good thing for the NA in this situation.

If you have ever been or seen combat then you would not be saying what you are saying. These are trained professionals who react as deemed fit for the situation. Lets applaud them even when their efforts are little as without their line of defence Boko haram would have engulfed Nigeria as wr know it.
