Buhari, the C-in-C of Boko Haram, probably tipped his insurgents off, culminating in the waste of these precious life. If only these boys take heed of Bishop Kuka’s counsel that Nigeria is not worth sacrificing your life for.

Good heavens!! Something like this happened in this country and it did not make the news?

How can there be a lack of communication between Army and Air Force to the extent that the Air Force would kill one of their own?
This country is just running on borrowed time. I have never heard of this kind of unprofessionalism anywhere in the world
U will never see the news reporting about all the insurgency happening in Niger state.
And as for the airforce I don't know if it due to unprofessionalism or they did it intentionally cos I believe the scanned from air before firing.

, especially as we have even more security issues under his regime now

So you rendered all your arguments about Jonathan invalid by your last statement.

Thank you.
No mind that one. If nothing, Jonathan never granted repented Boko Haram terrorist amnesty. That is too demoralising.

Government should stop wasting our money and soldiers in the fight against boko haram. Just get somebody with coronavirus to infiltrate the gang and watch wonders happen.
me I hate nonsense

That's true.....
They can use weapons a bait.
They just have to "publicize" a fake movement of weapons and supplies from one place to the other, preferable a route that the hoodlums are most likely to use.
They can insert chips in the weapons as well as used military uniforms that have been used to rub Corona virus patients or some some stuff like that sha

Obviously a sabotage from inside the military those so called repentant bokoharam fighters recruited into the army might have licked out info about the movements of the nigerian soildiers.
Are u the one that recruited them into the army? Rubbish!!!

How about you check the meaning of 'convoy' before commenting again?

Convoy or not, those glorified boy scouts (Nigerian Army) are still stuck in the 16th century and know absolutely nothing about modern warfare. The sorry ass cowards only know how to brutalize and kill unarmed civilians.

They should just swallow their pride and beg the US army to help restructure this group of boy scouts parading themselves as soldiers. The Nigerian armed forces is currently a very big joke.

How can a convoy of army move without air surveillance support by the air force? Hope this is another case of sabotage? Oh my God our gallant young solders gone again. May their souls rest in perfect peace.

The problem is the obsolete structure of the Nigerian armed forces. The army should have their own pilots like it is in the United States where they have navy and marine pilots besides the US airforce.

No matter how you look at this, it's a bad tactics from the millitary. It sounds absurd. 70 soldiers died without putting up a fight? 70 highly trained mercenaries could overrun Bokoharam stronghold.

I was watching a video on YouTube the other day, our soldiers jumped into an abandoned truck left by Bokoharam and started shooting in the air and shouting. I asked myself, if this vehicle was wired with explosives, this would have been how these fellows would have been roasted like turkey. No forward team, no scout, nothing. Loaded 70 men into a truck in a war turn zone. Imagine if they had landed on a landmine?

The nigeria military is a big joke.
Re: Boko Haram Kills 70 Soldiers In Borno Ambush by DedeNkem: 12:43am On Mar 25, 2020
Nigerian military is one of the most incompetent and corrupt in the world! Boko Haram is slaughtering them like chickens due to poor training and massive mismanagement of their own funds!

If this is true, then, Nigeria Army lack tactics and I don't see them winning this war with this amateur approach.
that's why I doubt this story. 70 personnel can't be on any truck in a war zone. They can't be that stupid.

But that's the reality, it is a confirmed news. They were packed like sardines to Die.
It happens when ethnicity and greed overtakes professionalism.
We have indigenous APC & MRAP manufacturers, ( Innosson and Proforce) no, they won't be patriotic as to patronize them, you only see them parading the MRAPS on television, but it's not seen any where in the war fronts.
Until there is Sanity in the NA, Airforce , I can only pity the unfortunate pawns(soldiers), who are recruited and trained for only 2 months and sent to fight those Federal Govt is feeding fat and granting ammnesty .

a drone a Chopper is. Supposedly to accompany a convoy this cannot happen to a modern military formation only a corrupt one the least a well trained convoy will take from insurgents is roadside bombs and mines which a high flying drone could interception with infrared device's the Nigeria army is the most organized boys scouts the world over.

Lord have mercy. A whole 70 soldiers it's human being we are talking about here. Why not use several trucks instead of all in one truck.
Re: Boko Haram Kills 70 Soldiers In Borno Ambush by uwemconcept: 11:43am On Mar 25, 2020
I Think the right thing to do is to provide air cover for the land soldiers when they are moving to a new location. Not just let them go alone. Definitely there will be ambush.
