My friend if we dont blame the president then who do we blame?. This president has not taken care of his backyard but he is running to burkina faso to make peace.

so if someone should kill his own brother inside their father's house, we should blame the president for not securing the house

Is the chief in command of Nigeria arm forces really competent or he's just clueless?

Sijo01:
64 men with sophisticated weapons is more than a barrack with rickety weapons.

Last time i checked, this thread is not about someone that killed his own brother but of a whole town seized by 64 gunmen because of the incompetence of the president.

Lies! Were you there to count them? Who counted them. Mtcheew...,..

The story says Boko haram members were boasting about it in the town, claiming that it was a sign that ''Allah'' is behind them.

MusaIbrahim1:
"The recent capture of Mubi town in
Adamawa State was carried out by
only 64 Boko Haram members, a
resident who fled the town said.
The man also told the BBC Hausa on
Tuesday that the insurgents told the
residents that only seven fighters
attacked the military barracks."


A fleeing resident counted the BH and knew that their number was 64... Interesting..... Even if they invited you for a dinner, I seriously doubt if you can correctly count them all.... I do not believe this.

calebo101:
Nothing some people won't do to discredit the government.
So someone actually went round and took a head count of the terrorists and concluded it was 64...
Enemies of Nigeria, well done.
Nor be una I blame cha, na d fools wen full Nigeria wen dey bath with salt and water na dey believe everything hook, line and sinker.
Come February 2015 after Jonathan is sworn in again some serious soul searching would be done and you would ask yourself all the wasted lives just to oust one man, was it worth it?
Till then, keep killing yourselves and kidnapping your own people

If you can only read further, you would have read this

“Some of them went to a cleric and
lectured him extensively. They told the
cleric that they were able to capture
the town so easily because what they
stand for was the right path.
“They told him that only 64 of them
launched attack on Mubi and
captured the town eventually. The
boys (Boko Haram) told the cleric that
only seven people were left to handle
the town’s military barrack,” he said.
The local, who spoke after he left
Mubi, explained that there was not a
single uniformed security officer in
Mubi presently, “unless if they
changed their uniforms to civilian
ones.”

Note the bodled with what you quoted. What is (are) your conclusion(s)?

ah...I see.I thought as much.

Quite disheartening to think mubi could easily fall into the hands of a handful tenage riff raffs in the presence of 2 or 3 battallions without report of much resistence in just one day or 2. Haba, i smell foul play here. Our military reknown for bravery can't easily surrendered mubi just like that, except there was a calculated effort and schemes already mapped out from the top to frustrate the gallantry of our army and to give the boko boys more edge or advantage over our military. Somebody at the top is benefitting immensely both politically and financially from the whole crises. It also came to me a surprise that the Mr. President unconcerned could leave for BF a day or there about after mubi was recaptured. The whole scenerior gives reason to concern over who is behind the failure of the military and how motivated the military force is. May God help Nigeria.

wazoboy:
But why must a town with 3000 soldiers fall so easily to whatever number of enemy attacking? At least it should have taken many days of intense fighting with heavy casualties on both sides before the town of such a number of "loyal" soldiers should fall!

Cos BH and PDP are the same. You will see the magic on how Nigerian army will take over the town.

Somebody is studying The Art of war!

If your enemy is secure at all points, be prepared for him. If he is in superior strength, evade him. If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant. If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them. If sovereign and subject are in accord, put division between them. Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected.

BH and their victims are more or less kith and kin......hence my analogy...

u smell foul play. that's exactly what we r saying. but no one can conclude where actually the rat is hidden

lekkie, i will appreciate if you keep your insensitivity to yourself. I don't deal with folks with no human feelings. You can't afford to become too political to undermine the suffering of a fellow man no matter how tribally entrench you are.
