ISpiksDaTroof: You're probably the biggest bullshiyyter and liar I met since I joined this forum. You might disagree with me, but you have no right whatsoever to call me a liar without substantiated burden of proof. if you've got any objections to the points mentioned, why cant you express your concerns without insults? If you have concrete evidence to dispute the information put forward, state it. The essence of divulging these things is to educate the ignorant enthusiasts about what we have and what we don't have. @Shymexx, I don't know the reason why they are keeping the acquisitions secret when we will all see it during the military air show |

seankafor: which country has these? Nigeria. Check the side wing u will see the NAF logo |
Re: Yes Nigeria Has What It Takes To Protect Her Airspace(pix) by xwolverine: 9:44am On Sep 25, 2014 |
shymexx: As funny as it sounds, the reason given is that Nigeria is in breach of their so called senator Leahy laws. This to me is selective double standards, because Nigeria has shown itself over the years as dependable ally, even when we had the tyrants in power (Abacha), our alpha jets were used extensively to end the Liberian and Seira leoninan wars, if we look at the Israeli conflicts with Palestines, there were numerous cases of human right abuse, but the Yanks turned the blind eye. The sanctions, though unofficial from the yanks, is what our ogas are giving as reasons for not getting the right hardwares, which to me is a blessing in disguise and it further buttresses my point that we should turn East for our military assets. The Cobras blocked from the Israeli deal does 150 mph, the Mi 35m does 150mph and its relatively cheaper. They both have night fighting capabilities, why do we keep on crying about the yanks blocking our purchases? Our foreign policy is inherently weak and we lack national defence/security strategy, that's why we are constantly being bullied. Would South Africans Handle the $9 million like that if it was the yanks that owned it? Look at Algeria and the debacle when about 60 expertriates of which most were from powerful countries were kidnapped, the Algerians made sure that no fly from any foreign country dared enter their airspace, putting it in lockdown. We on the other hand had to invite the yanks to our country, because of the chibok saga. The yanks were practically left to gather invaluable Intel about our nation and military assets, heck they even refused to share intelligence with our boys. The French who colonised Algeria were practically beg to go near the Algerian border, with a lot of diplomatic negotiations and pleading. After locking down their airspace, the Algerian special forces went in guns blazing and killed almost 20 of the hostages yet we didn’t ear any crap from the west about that operation till today, the only thing the Algerian foreign minister had to say was "we couldn’t allow ransom money to enter the terrorists hands to torment algerians so something had to be done”. After everything, the yanks packed their gears and left without doing jack. We wouldn't be in this position if after the Biafra wars we had started to harness those inventions from the Ibos. We could have upgraded Dicon to enviable standards , unlike what obtains now, where the only meaningful manufacturing going on in Dicon is reproductions of AK47 in this day and age where college students are manufacturing drones, heck we can't even manufacture military protective gears. Who are we deceiving. As predicted, GEJ is currently in the US, cap in hand begging the yanks to have mercy, where is our national pride and respect? I'm sure he would be smiling sheepishly while the yanks and Other African countries would be making fun of us. even ordinary Cameroon that doesn't have an airforce are claiming that they carried out strikes inside the Nigerian territory. I don't care whoever occupies the Aso Rock next year, as long as the person has balls of steel. 1 Like |

EroZA: SA sent troops to CAR to train troops of that country....that was their missionI SEE, take this scenario, I sent some group of people to you, to teach you how to capture or kill lions and during the course some lions came to attack the group of trainer and kill some number of people among the trainers. the question will be , What kind of training do you want to give, that you can't use against the attackers. why can't SADF use the tactics or strategies they wanted to give the CAR ARMY when the repels attacked them? (please have ur say on this scenario #matured way please |

how would the group properly defend themselves with weopons which were meant for training ?dont you think that those trainers should be commended for their bravery which led to the killings of more than 600 lions courtesy of stones and sticks used in self defense Hostermipo: I SEE, take this scenario, I sent some group of people to you, to teach you how to capture or kill lions and during the course some lions came to attack the group of trainer and kill some number of people among the trainers. the question will be , What kind of training do you want to give, that you can't use against the attackers. why can't SADF use the tactics or strategies they wanted to give the CAR ARMY when the repels attacked them?

Samueldo: Thank you my brother tell them. Some Nigerians are very ungraceful and unpatriotic. If you continue to rubbish your Arm forces and your country, how do you expect other countries to respect you. Is this not the same country to will cry to when you are being maltreated in other countries?. you citizens that don't know what you have until you lose it. |

xwolverine: Sorry for the late reply. I just wanted to be in a better space mentally before replying your post due to lengthy it's. 1). I honestyly don't think it has anything to do with what the American Senators think. Nigeria isn't an American "ally" to that level where it benefits America's strategic interest, for the yanks to allow the country procure some of its most sensitive weapons of war. And even if a strategic interest were to be involved, based on mutual threats to both countries, there will be a lot of restrictions on whatever weapons they decide to sell to Nigeria. You can check the type of awkward and bad arms deal the Algerians got from them at the height of AQIM, which was also more or less a threat to American interests, before the Algerians cancelled it: http://www.lemag.ma/english/m/Algeria-cancels-an-arms-market-worth--3-billion-with-the-U-S_a1267.html And Algeria is still somewhat a US ally, albeit neutral - and it's also close to both Russia and China. The country is also more strategic to US than Nigeria is. Moreover, Nigeria doesn't sign massive weapons deal directly with countries, like most sane countries do. They prefer to loot, and buy through third party contractors, in patches. I've never seen Nigeria sign billions of dollars worth of weapons deal like most countries. Nigerian leaders rogues! There's no sanction on Nigeria - the country isn't straightforward in dealing with. Perhaps that's why no one takes Nigeria seriously. 2). Don't compare Algeria, or any of the powerhouses in Africa to Nigeria. Apart from Nigeria's oil and gas (even Libya has more oil than Nigeria, and Algeria is almost on Nigeria's levelin terms of gas) and the huge population - Nigeria is a very weak country. Nigeria can't even effectively defend its borders and airspace against foreign aggression. Isn't Nigeria the same country where American subs always pop up on its shores all the time? Only God knows how many foreign reconnaissance planes and fighter jets fly through the Nigerian airspace daily. 3). Nobody has time for GEJ at the UN summit in New York. ISIS and Ukraine are the focus for now. I doubt he'll get a chance to even shake hands with Obama. |

xwolverine:What freaking "Intel" about your porous country are you talking about? You really think we need to be on ground to know everything happening in your official circles? If you became a fantasy writer you would become a very successful one in a very short period...at least if you learned how to spell "Sierra Leonian" properly P.S: What the hell is a "Breach of so called Sen.Leahy law"? Stop pretending like you know more than you do. Everything you wrote up there was crap, and you know it. |

SANDF mission was to train nothing else,Fomac troops were the ones having the mandate of protecting Bangui...

If you became a fantasy writer you would become a very successful one in a very short period...at least if you learned how to spell "Sierra Leonian" properly Like the saying goes "some people are perceived intelligent until they open their mouths". I've been on this fora for a while and your level of trolling is unprecedented to say the least. You couldn't help but show how low your level of intelligence is, nor could you hide how myopic and shallow your thought process is than to pose a rebuttal to my submission with an effeminate reply filled with inaniloquent conjectures. You couldn't resist the urge to show your lack of courtesy that you had to stoop so low in your bid to score a cheap point, by pointing out a simple typo/misspelled word. What in Pete's name did you write up there? you didn't even offer a dissenting opinion, but your responses are filled with rhetorics and seemingly incomplete half-truths like someone suffering from knismesis. Unlike @Shymexx whom I've been having the discussion with, who unlike you is matured enough to respond with intelligent replies. You don't know me, neither do you know what I stand for, and unlike you I verify my facts before stating them. Kindly desist from quoting me if you can't offer a meaningful contribution to the topic, cos your maledicent responses are very shallow and becoming rather nauseating. |
