agaugust: WE ARE ARGUING REAL THINGS AND YOU ARE ARGUING DRAMA. POACHERS HAVE NEVER KILLED EVEN A SINGLE SOLDIER IN THEIR LIVES. NOT EVEN OVER 100 ANTI-POACHING UNIT(CIVILIANS) WERE EVER KILLED BY POACHERS. PROPAGANDA WILL NOT SCORE YOU ANY EASY POINTS. WELL WE UNDERSTAND THAT YOUR FRUSTRATION IS WHAT DRIVES YOU TO THROW JUST EVERYTHING IN TO LEVEL THE SCORE. BEAR WITH ME IT WONT HELP TO HOLD ON TO ISSUE OF JUST FOUR RETIRED NAVY SEALS WHO LEFT AMERICA VOLUNTARILY TO SHOOT A SHOW ON A PRI ATELY OWNED GAME RANGE WHICH WAS LATER TELEVISED TO THE PUBLIC. THE QUARTET ARE LONG GONE BACK TO THE US AND HAVE EVEN FORGOT ABOUT THEIR TRIP WHICH @ AGAUGUST IS STILL HOLDING ON TO CONSOLE HIMSELF. IT WONT HELP BECAUSE YOUR STATEMENT IS UNFOUNDED. 2 Likes |

It was very easy to say that S.A.A.F was wasting ammo and bragging about dropping bombs on dummy targets during exercises. I bet Augbu and his friends are swallowing their own words, because now you see the importance of pilots taking part in extensive exercises and getting comfortable with using their weapons. PIC1: Bomb dropped by Gripen. PIC2: Rockets fired from a Rooivalk

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-29014513 What pride, I ask? __ Letter from Africa: Nigeria's Boko Haram wounds army's pride In our series of letters from African journalists, Mannir Dan Ali considers Nigeria's inability to prevent the Boko Haram militant group from gaining ground in the north-east. Just when you imagine that it cannot get worse for the Nigerian military and its pride as a fighting force, it takes a further dive. With the abduction of the more than 200 teenage schoolgirls from Chibok in north-eastern Nigeria well past the three-month mark and no news yet about their rescue, the number of towns and villages being taken over by the Boko Haram insurgents is steadily growing. It seems military commanders have believed their own propaganda, ignoring the true state of affairs in the troubled region. For nearly a year - coinciding with the state of emergency in the north-east - there have been constant reports quoting foot soldiers saying they lack the equipment to match the firepower of the insurgents. Recently some soldiers claimed that sending them to engage the insurgents without adequate weapons was like sending them to die. Last month saw the unprecedented spectacle of soldiers' wives protesting at the barracks in Maiduguri against the deployment of their husbands to the battle front on the grounds that they were not properly equipped. Before that the senior general in charge of the same barracks barely escaped with his life when angry junior soldiers turned their guns on him after they heard about a bloody ambush in which a number of their colleagues lost their lives. Courts-martial He escaped unharmed - after being whisked away by his security aides - and was discreetly replaced shortly afterwards. This was quickly followed by reports of mutinous conduct by some soldiers who refused an order to be posted to engage with the Boko Haram militants. At all times the Nigerian military authorities issue standard denials and in the case of the refusal to carry out orders attributed it to "mischief-makers working for terrorists". On the wives' protest, Nigeria's army chief Lt-Gen Kenneth Minimah warned: "Any repeat of such acts, I will tell soldiers to use koboko [whip] on the wives and bundle them out of the barracks."

Most of military's hardware dates back to purchases made under the civilian government overthrown in 1983 - the last non-military administration until multi-party democracy returned in 1999. The rot is blamed largely on corruption - and some say the inadequacy is also a legacy of long years of neglect by military regimes, coupled with politicians who argued a strong army was a challenge to democracy. All this has allowed Boko Haram to seize the initiative, taking over and holding towns and villages and hoisting their flags in places such as Gwoza. This has emboldened the group's leader to declare a caliphate in the areas it controls. The Nigerian defence headquarters dismiss this as empty rhetoric - they say the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the state is still intact. But many Nigerians remain wary of such reassurances and are apprehensive about what the militants may do next. 3 Likes |

MikeZA: Are people whom think their military is the best in Africa,yet have terrorist groups holding land and further capturing more in their country. DUMMY!!!!! I see you're back to reporting for terrorists. Sorry to fail you. The nigerian army ruthlessly murdered 130 terrorists, and arrested 30 more. Bama Death Toll Rises to 130, 35 Insurgents Arrested 02 Sep 2014 By Michael Olugbode The Borno youth vigilantes popularly known as civilian JTF Tuesday dispelled the rumor that the Boko Haram insurgents have taken over the control of Bama town. They said instead it was the group that suffered a massive casualty in the attack, losing 130 persons with 35 others arrested and in custody. At a press briefing in Maiduguri, spokesman of the JTF who is also the legal, Barrister Jibrin Gunda, said: “we categorically refute the statement credited to Senator Ahmed Zanna, the senator representing Borno central on BBC Hausa service that the Boko Haram have capture Bama. “News has filtered most especially on foreign media to which we want to clearly state that our security personnel are doing their best and yesterday our gallant soldiers successfully repelled the insurgents who attacked Bama and Bama as a town in Borno State has never been overrun or overtaken by the insurgents even for a minute, even as of now our soldiers are in full control of the town”. Continue supporting terrorists. You would soon be invited to join Boko-haram, since this is what you desperately want. |
