Army Recapture 3 Adamawa Towns by Handsomeemmy(m): 2:03pm On Nov 19, 2014
Defence Headquarters claimed that the Nigerian army regained control over the recently captured Gombi, Pelia and Hong.

It would be recalled that the Adamawa towns were reportedly captured last week as Boko Haram insurgents launched another set of attack in an attempt to seize more territories in the North-East.

Gombi residents narrated after the raid that the terrorists were patrolling the streets and firing heavy weaponry.

Further reports confirmed the development adding that both sides, army and insurgents, suffered losses in the fierce clashes for Gombi and Hong, located close to the state capital Yola.

However today, November 19, the Nigerian Defence Headquarters took to its Twitter account to announce that the military managed to reclaim the 3 towns.

According to the information made available,  they also killed many terrorists recovered weaponry.

The army should continue to push, at this rate the marauders will be left with no option but to relinquish their stronghold. BH views the armies unwillingness to launsh sttacks on their base as weakness. God bless the Nigerian Army.

If you look at this picture, you will understand why Boko Haram is thriving. Who goes to war with that at this age? It all boils down to corruption.

Now, can we still have the doubt that Boko Haram are better equipped than our military?

what are the two projections by the sides of the main barrell?
stabilizers?

The days of the soldier with an ak-47 are over.
The NA has to buy thousands of technicals and weapons systems like the TKG mobile mortar.


If you guys need someone that will prepare juju for your whole battalion,
just contact me.
why you are not winning is that all of you have different, different juju.
and some of the juju is on different frequency. they cancel each other out.
if the whole battalion do juju with one babalawo, the juju power is now X1000.
Your battalion will get the glory!

i have some reservations about the formation in the 2nd picture.
The unit only has one mobile cannon. (perhaps there s another furter behind the column).
Suppose BH ambush/disable that cannon, then attack the troop carriers with a shilka, those dog soldiers are mince meat.
Re: Army Recapture 3 Adamawa Towns by deji68: 10:14pm On Nov 19, 2014
do you know the kind of vehicle the person who took the pic was driving ..The Na will not show all the weapons in their arsenal....make we just celebrate the good news jare grin grin
