Rampage? Can we compare this recent rampage as presented by you and that of the previous that of the previous administration.

We tend to politicize with sentiments, till things blow up -- same thing is happening in the SS now.

OTOH, the military under GEJ was as corrupt as scoliosis. You can't use the excuse given by the CDS to justify diversion of arms funds, sending soldiers to the war-front to essentially 'go and die', and many other atrocities perpetuated.

Former Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) Admiral Ola Sa’ad Ibrahim (Rtd) has blamed politics for failure of the military to defeat Boko Haram under the leadership of former President Goodluck Jonathan.
Ibrahim on Monday in Abuja told journalists during a lecture he delivered at the National Defence College (NDC) on Military Leadership and National Security, that “In our time, there were so many distractions.”

The CDS served from October 2012 to January 16, 2014, and also as Chief of Naval Staff (CNS) from 2010 to 2012.

Ibrahim added that: “Up to the time the Commander in Chief then declared a State of Emergency, you will hear: ‘we are negotiating here and there, please slow down,’ north eastern elders were worried.

“Can you imagine fighting a war and the people you were trying to protect were thinking that soldiers out there on the streets of Maiduguri, were an army of occupation, which brought a lot of political dimension to the issues.

“And when political dimension, combined with several other policy choices, the result was what we saw, when the state of emergency was declared, I thought there was a little celebration, because the political dimension was like giving you a job and tying your hand behind your back.

“Besides the resources to take on such challenges were neither here nor there, to the level one would have expected, we were not prepared for the nature of the insurgency, even our procurement processes were tailored towards or heavier on conventional warfare.”

PDP is Boko Haram : Late Azazi

Omooba77:


I belive you went to school and you can read and write. PMB himself said a fight against Boko haram was against the North. The CDS in question is a muslim and knows more than you do. Please stop reasoning politically and do as functional homo sapien

Destined2win:
The question now is, 'how can buhari defeat them because all the acclaimed successes are yet too yield tangible results.


Boko is still on rampage

DaBullIT:
Clueless bloody civilian is not the same as a retired general

The difference is clear

DaudaAbu:



Dont mind them. What their principal couldnt achieve they wished no one can

Now that the difference is clear, they want to still stay in the past..

please can you provide a credible link to the bolded?...this is an oft repeated assertion but never backed by any credible evidence..so please kindly oblige us a link.,thank you

CoolAmbience:


Exactly, they perpetually claim not hearing positive developments regarding the fight against Boko Haram. They never saw the return of Borno Emirs who fled the insurgency or tons of IDPs that have returned to their once BH-occupied communities or schools that have reopened for academic activities after over two years.

Some people sef....

QuotaSystem:
Jonathan was a victim of his own incompetence and political naivety. There is no denying that he exploited the war in the NE to his political advantage.

Arms funds for which war were diverted to fund who's failed re-election campaign? Who would expect him to be serious about defeating BH when continuing the battle was a sure source of campaign funds? When Dasuki his NSA was busy deliberately sabotaging the military and funneling diverted funds to Wadata Plaza?

What a wicked and ineffectual buffoon. At his level of greed and incompetence, he will struggle to command even a Boys Brigade.

Fools will ever remain fools no matter the lies blown into their itching ears.

1.APC = BH Sympathizers during Gej era
2.PMB= A war against Boko Haram is a war against Muslim/North.
3.Pmb/Adamu ciroma ET AL =we will make Nigeria ungovernable for Gej.
3.Borno Governor paying millions of naira as compensation to the family of Boko Haram leader (yusuf)after his death.
4.CDS=Northerner/sympathiser
5.Sambo Dasuki =Northerner
6.Emir Sanusi=ATM
7.TINUBU/APC cronies =secured through petitions to International community especially world powers not to sell arms to Gej govt.
8.USA/Obama =Agent of Nigeria division
9.Buhari Solely appointed by Boko Haram boys to negotiate with FG.
Etc...... .........


Zombies N/B
Gej drastically rooted Boko Haram during the 6weeks extension of 2015 election, making it possible for election to be conducted in all 36 states of the federation and here the so called Chief of Defense is fooling himself and enemies of good work that our Armies under performed during Gej.
But failed to blame PMB for not living up to the expectations that he received from his predecessor after the hand over and his unwise decision to dismantle all the Check points in the country including the North.


Kudos to our gallant Armies
Woe unto our politicians and their BLAME G
