It is called a ghillie suite. It is used by military snipers, and is a standard military camouflage.

This topic is a revelation and an opportunity to take a peek into the ignorance of many Nigerians on Nairaland.

Their lack of critical reasoning and habitual hasty conclusion on matters they are ignorant about. It is no wonder they are mostly unemployable.

Thank you for this response Henry.

''Soldier dressed like a masquerade'' indeed.

Soldiers really pass through hell to defend a country.They do all sorts of things just to win war.According to the person who shared the photos on Instagram(he claims to be a soldier),the soldier had to dress in an unusual way during a battle with terrorists.

He wrote.....

This is not a masquerade attire, it's standard military camouflage so as to be able to hide from enemies. Research a little before you disgrace yourself on a public forum.

Modified!

Oya op modify your topic head to avoid further embarrassment. I no know as this take resemble masquerade, abi na how your village masquerade look like?

The level of ignorance here is appalling, most Nigerians don't research at all, as the op make mistake, instead make folks research about the stuff, they kukuma gree say na masquerade. Google search is in the phone of every one yet people don't use it.

THE MOD THAT BROUGHT THIS TO FRONT PAGE WITHOUT MODIFIYING THE TOPIC DESERVES A BIG KNOCK ON THE HEAD!!
Thank you for enlightening them o. Maybe they don't watch war movies and documentaries on wars and soldiers.

OP it is called camouflaging, not dressing like masquerade... it is a survival and adaptation technique. Some wild animals use it. Even d uniforms soldiers wear is camouflaged in relation to d area d r fighting... Down east, Where there is rain forest, d camou colour is patches of green and rusty brown... up north, Where there r deserts, it's dusty brown. This is to conceal them in d face of d enemy
Re: Soldier Dressed Like A Masquarade To Fight Terrorists(pics by mezielo: 2:13pm On Jan 17, 2016
This is a military camouflage majorly used by a sniper and a spotter or a foot soldier for stealth to blend with the forest view in order to evade from the eyes of the enemies. it makes them invincible or very hard to spot except when they move which is very rare and dey are the most deadliest feared by soldiers because just one of this man can take out a full battalion. one man one bullet and its very rare to see them miss a target whether a moving target or a stationary target. Don't give misguided information

Well..., as much as I want to believe, all these are security implementation strategies which should be kept private and not leaking to the public. Nigerian Army should beware, especially when u don't know who ur enemy is. Pretence sometimes are good advancement towards capturing the boko boys..

Thumbs-up the NA
u have a point,

but, if you see this in reality tommorw, u won't recognize it until u walk into the trap
