GEJ till 2019!!!

“The truth is that there were some [b]pre-emptive manoeuvres [/b]along an axis in the theatre. Nigerian forces were also involved. It is unfortunate if that is what this young man is reporting in this false and divisive way. He may have to be called to order to stop this exuberant attitude of misinforming people as this is not good for our collective efforts. We will take this up where it matters.”

free2ryhme:
Is this dull general saying that "pre-emptive manoeuvres" cannot be another word for incursion depending on how it was done and the people involved?

What does Nigeria expect when foreign soldiers are firmly on Nigeria soil as you read this. The armies of Niger and Chad are not only helping to defend their own side of the borders, they are actually fighting on Nigeria soil. Even the successes of the Nigeria army has been attributed to support from the foreign armies, without which Boko Haram would have remained immoveable. Olukolade should just accept failure and keep quiet.

igbsam:
Always Accusing, Giving Excuses, Laying Blames, Countering Speeches, Exposing their plans, giving Boko Haram the free will to do what they like, playing politics and weakening their troops. That's what our military have become. Its a pity, the once giant of africa have become the tsetsefly of africa.

The Incompetence of this present administration have greatly affected the Nigerian Military with its lukewarm attitude and slow response to needs of securing the country

Sad to see people bringing GEJ's name here.

At a party yesterday, someone said GEJ corrupted the armed forces and I asked him how did he do it? Did he change their training maneuvers? Did he select the recruits? Is he in charge of their experience? Etc....till now, I still have no answer

jazzy4naija:

why do we love playing politics with everything in Nigeria? The General has spoken but instead of looking at the substance in his statement you are here insulting a man who has reached the peak of his career serving this nation. Prior to now what has been the attitude of Chad towards BH? I remember not too long ago all of us were accusing Chad of providing an abode for Boko Haram and it was due to very strong criticism from Nigerians that led to their recent effort . I also remember how the Chadian president brokered a failed cease fire deal with this terrorist n the accusations that followed but today the man his your hero because he said something negative about GEJ

Eeyah, that person should have given you an answer ASAP.

but l am here to help!

The job of the military is to defend the TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY OF THE NATION AGAINST "EXTERNAL AGGRESSION".

Under GEJ:

1.) The Nigerian Military was turned to a political tool. Example is that of the Ekiti-gate where though we needed Soldiers in the battle field in Sambissa and Baga and the small number sent there were ill-equipped, Jonathan sent a total of 1,016 Soldiers to "supervise" RIG an election in Ekiti State! ofcourse, revelations by a Soldier (A Captain Sagir) showed that the Soldiers were only used to rig the election.
That is corruption of the military because the Police are the ones constitutionally empowered to "supervise and maintain" Security internally.
When you start involving Military in 'Politics' you are corrupting their professionalism.

2.) The Armed Forces were being equipped by GEJ's Militant: It is a shame that under Jonathan, that it is his tribal militants that are sourcing Military Equipments for the Nigerian Armed forces! From that Thug, Ayo Oritshajefor, to thta creek militant, Asari Dokubo, we now have "individuals" from Jonathan's clan, buying military equipment for the Nigerian Armed forces? What about the "Nation-Nation security channels? What about the "Joint" Chief of Staff?
When you see Jonathan turn our military to errand boys for Creek Militants, then look no further for gradual destruction of such military but God and Nigerians would not allow this to happen.

3.) The Job of the Navy is being done by Tompolo through NIMASSA: It is the traditional role of the Nigerian Navy to secure our territorial waters and they have done so brilliantly in the past. Under GEJ, the Govt Agency called NIMASSA was put under the control of a creel Militant by name "government" Tompolo! His company now owns NIMASSA and does the job of securing our National Water boundaries and off-shore assets? What manner of insult is that to the Nigerian Navy and the nation as a whole? So Tompolo can now do a better job that the Nigerian Navy?
So Jonathan wants to empower his creek militants more than the Nigerian Navy, huh? Shame on him.

4.) He removes competent officers and replaces them with those from his side of the world or those "yes Men' who are loyal to his re-election ambition: Jonathan has been systematically removing competent and professional officers from the Armed Forces on reasons of ethnicity or whether they are ready to do his political bidding. From general Aziza, Agwayi, e.t.c... so much so that officers are thinking that its better to play politics thatn be professional Soldiers! You can hear it in the Ekiti-gate recordings when Musiliu Obanikoro told a "Brig General" of the Nigerian Army that they are acting on the instruction of President Jonathan, to use the military to rig the election and that" if the general coperates, he would be recommended for promotion or vice versa"
That is politicisation of the Nigerian Armed forces. It destroys the professionalism of the military.

5.) Truncates Democracy using the Military: Again, Jonathan has been trying very hard to use the military to truncate the present democracy in a desprate bid to remain relevant. He has rubbished our military to make the Boko Haram issue look unresolvable so he can use it as an excuse to prolong his own rule (remember he was the one who wanted his tenure extended to a singe term of 7years?). Now, he connives with some military officers and the NSO, to say that they "cannot guarantee the safety of Nigerians if elections were held as scheduled, from some rag-tag Boko haram that even "supporter of APC forces" from Chad or Niger are routing?
If you think the Nigerian Army was unable to defeat Boko haram all these days (and can suddenly do so in SIX WEEKS!) because Boko Haram was more powerful than the Nigerian Army, on any account, thenyou need to know that Jonathan was deliberately undermining them for his own personal "campaign advantage", which is what he doing now...... but did we need to waste the life of so many Soldiers and innocent civilians, destruction of property and make that stewpid "Shey-Cow" a VIP amongst his terrorist brothers, before hitting them hard... just so Jonathan can use it for campaign propaganda?
?
This ridiculing of our Armed forces by Jonathan, is tantamount to playing politics with professional soldiers because he makes them the butt of ridicule to smaller nations like Chadian Army or Cameroun Army.

Look, l can go on and on but since you wanted just one reason on how this inept Jonathan is corrupting our military, l have given you just FIVE REASON, to 'swallow and digest'.

Fuel Scarcity -- Blame APC
Boko Haram == Blame APC
Power -- Blame Obasanjo
Election Shift -- Blame Jega
Boko Haram Escape -- Blame Other Countries
Cash found in plane -- Blame USA for not selling weapon to us.
Corruption --- Blame politician.


Only a useless Govt can have this track record.

I see you making allegations without substantive proof. From the hatred of the CAN president to the allegation of Tompolo owning NIMASA. Even the amnesty ish that some people have politicized to GEJ's favouring of his kin started before GEJ. It was adopted by the houses of parliament and established into law. A new ministry was created etc.
I'm glad you know the job of the police, yet when the military announced that it won't be covering election security, so many people said the president did that to 'rig' the election. Even soldiers station in Ekiti has now been attributed to GEJ sending them there as if there was no barracks or soldiers in Ekiti state before the elections.

I'm still waiting for a definitive answer as to how GEJ rubbished the Nigerian armed forces.

House of Reps:
Reps query NIMASA over payment of $326m to Tompolo’s firmon October 14, 2013 at 1:52 am in News
BY GODWIN ORITSE

THE House of Representatives Ad-Hoc Committee investigating the Cabotage Vessel Financing Fund, CVFF, has queried the management of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency NIMASA, over the $326million payment to Global West Specialist Vessels Limited, a company purportedly owned by ex- militant leader, Chief Government Ekpemupoloaka Tompolo.

I see that you are one of those "Ostriches" who prefer to bury their head in the sand!.
Soldiers stay "inside barracks".... not monitoring, regulating passage and assigning "arm-band" on who goes where. Did you even ever listen tot he recording bfore yarning all these opaata?

Except you dont have fuel for that your i-better-pass generator and therefore had not been reading media, hwo do you want me to start repeating and posting evidence for what has already become stale news? Tompolos own was discussed properly here-in on Nairaland a few days back!

The problem am having with all this is that the Chadian and Nigerien armies are moving about with camera men and news men, but our Army seems not to be able to do that,anyway they should all use appropriate channels to communicate to each other and not on social or mass media, Boko haram is a serious issue and it's enemy to all please.
