1.if Gambia should go into civil war, the amount of people that will be dislocated will disturb the peace balance of west African region.
2. Refugee crisis is not something ECOWAS region is ready for ATM, all those small countries surrounding Gambia will be affected.
3. The influx of weapons from Jammeh regime will fall into the wrong hands, just like Libya whereby Gaddafi weapons fell on terrorist, this affected Mali, Niger, Algeria, and Nigeria Boko haram benefited from those weapons.
4. ECOWAS economy will go be affected as well, investors will stay away.
5. we don't want another Liberia and Sierra Leone crisis.
6. its time the guy go, they don't want him, he has been ruling for 21 years, i think he has done enough.

U av a point
But i still think Nigeria shd be on the spear head of this

We have boko haram fulani herdsmen and NDA. To deal with
What shud be d primary concern here shud be 100% Nigerian benefit
Nigeria shud dont think of getting its citizens out of Gambia pending when d issue is resolved

I still dont see why we shud send soldiers when we have alpt of problems..

Use of force to remove sit tight president from power will only lead to loss of more innocent lives. Please Ecowas should look for a peaceful way to resolve this issue. At worst Jammeh should be left alone, he will eventually step down someday

idupaul:
Buhari is only setting hisself up for 2019 incase he refuses to leave after losing to Mr stone

Unfortunately, the man no know.

Jammeh wants to turn to bashir alassad 2.0. make dem no go turn gambia to present day syria

Icecomrade:

Total Gambia population is 1.9m.

That's 1/4 of Lagos population.

Jammeh is not supposed to be called a President.

He would have been regarded as a village in Nigeria.

Still wondering why he wants to die on something as little as this.

on the flip side

Is this not Territorial infringement of the sovereignty of another Country?

Maybe Buhari Tyranny done upgrade.

dont know why that country is a seperate country when its not an island nation, should have merged with senegal during independence. Lesson for some breakaway agitators in nigeria. Now see how other countries go form superpowe for there head

Guyman02:


Gallant troop wey no fit deal with herdsmen terrorizing Southern Kaduna and Agatu, I hope they dont come back in piece. Nonsense!
They just buried 16 missing soldiers and you want us to send them to another mission in Gambia. Ewu gambia like you

I dnt know where to start from but diplomatic Missons can not be explained to small minds.

It is complicated.


The summary is that Nigeria is doing the right thing in Gambia right now.

prettyboi1989:

though that is not possible due to d small teritory,just like d iraq, usa and quatar movie

Nigeria is capable of doing both

NIGERIA FIRST before anybody

We shud not interfere in what does not concerns us

ECOWAS should be the one spear headin the issue not Nigeroa

Yaya Jammeh is a disgrace to Africa and democracy.
He must be kicked out

the same army that hasn't been able to pick up tompolo.

bukolaSaraki:
The Nigerian Army has raised an army battalion that would be deployed in troubled Gambia to forcefully remove President Yahya Jammeh from power if he fails to step down on January 19, PREMIUM TIMES can authoritatively report today.

The battalion, christened ECOMOG NIBATT 1, was drawn from the Army’s 19th Battalion based in Okitipupa, Ondo State, military insiders have told PREMIUM TIMES.

Personnel were also drawn from other formations and units across the country due to shortage of men at 19 Battalion which has a significant chunk of its troops deployed for internal security task force, Operation Delta Safe.

This newspaper learnt that the Army Headquarters has instructed the nominated officers and men, put at over 800, to immediately report at the Nigerian Army School of Infantry, Jaji, for a crashed course on counter terrorism and counter insurgency.

Our sources said Army Headquarters has also instructed the Army directorates of policy and plans; finance; and logistics to ready funds, arms, ammunition and other logistics for the operation.

The Armoured Corps is also working hard to ready armoured vehicles needed for the task, officials said.

There were suggestions by some of our sources that the Nigerian Air Force and the Navy might deploy men and equipment for the operation as well.

Top military officers said the Nigerian Battalion would be deployed in The Gambia anytime after January 19 if President Jammeh makes real his threat not to step down after the expiration of his tenure.

“This is an emergency operation, but we are ready,” one officer said. “The Nigerian Army is a strong, professional fighting force battle ready at anytime. We are so well structured that we can deploy at the touch of a button.

“We did it in Liberian, Sierra Leone and elsewhere. And Jammeh should know that we are not a joking force. Once we get the all clear from ECOWAS, the AU and the UN to move in, we can pick him up.”

The regional bloc, the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), had on December 23 put standby military forces on alert.

The ECOWAS Commission President, Marcel de Souza, said Senegal, The Gambia’s only territorial neighbour, would lead any military operation in the country.

Other West African countries will be mandated to provide troops as well, Mr. De Souza reportedly said.

Mr. Jammeh lost the December 1 2016 Gambia presidential election to opposition candidate, Adama Barrow.

He initially accepted defeat and congratulated Mr. Barrow but changed his mind and decided to challenge the outcome of the election.

He also vowed not to hand over to the winner as expected on January 19.

On Thursday, Mr. Jammeh said he would not step down before a Supreme Court decision on the disputed election, the BBC reported.

The President, the report said, insisted his cabinet and the National Assembly would remain in place until the Supreme Court rules on his party’s petition.

There is currently shortage of judges in the country to sit on the matter.

The case can only be heard in May if Nigeria agrees to supply judges to the Supreme Court.

West African leaders, led by President Muhammadu Buhari, the chief mediator, are travelling to Gambia on Friday to persuade Mr. Jammeh to accept an “honourable exit plan”.

This Yahya Jameh sef. It appears he wants to quit with ignominy like one Gbagbo. Well, he will surely get that if he remains in power after January 19.

How can you people lack comprehension. There is a place in the report that says they did it in other countries before now. Abi Buhari Na president during those years too?

This 21st century. Most of those countries have used their past to correct the present.As for Putin, non of his country men has come out to challenge his governance.

It's two different cases. Terrorist is different from that. We all know how many years it took USA to nab Osama and many day it takes to get Gbagbo and co. out.

You have no choice anyway.

wandeay:
I hope there will no be casualties, we can't afford to loose more soldiers at this critical time

Casualties are inevitable in such mission, we can only pray for less... It's what they have sworn to do

If Nigeria participates in this crime, then I would become convinces that Buhari has become fully owned puppet of white imperialism.

Only that the source is premium times gives me hope that the story is exaggerated.

CriticMaestro:
am not sure of our present day soldiers because the lack commitment, will and professionalism required of an average soldier.... those that served in liberia, sierra-leone etc did it for the love f country, we had a pot bellied chief of defense staff that looks heftier than an average politician at the helm of our nations defense.......secondly we lack equipments.... our military is a declining force that has been living on its previous glory until boko haram identified that weekness

My fear as well

fuckingAyaya:
another death trap for our soldiers again. buhari y? upon the casualties our troops suffered in the hands of bokoboyz

If u are in the army too you will be happy to go for such operation than to go and face terrorist bcoz its gon be a collabo with other countries.

Go and quietly remove the idiot frm power and come back in peace. I don't know why we Africans like disgracing this beautiful continent.

Nigeria has international obligations as well as national ones. Nigeria will be going in to protect the rule of law and is mandated by ECOWAS.

Forward strategic planning tells us that if we allow this despot to rule illegally. Gambia will become a pariah state and a haven for Islamic fundamentalists and terrorists. Jammeh declared Gambia an Islamic Republic illegally. And in order to stay in power at all costs will align himself with any Islamic power broker that will ensure his stay in power. Such as Isis, Iran and Saudi Arabia.

That will not be good news for us, we know Boko is heavily aligned with Islamic Maghreb and I would not be surprised if Shekau is currently hiding there. Allowing Gambia to become a haven for terrorists and Islamic fundamentalism will impact on Nigeria and the region in general.

Gambia's army is not more than 1200. However, the Nigerian armed forces are heavily lacking in infrastructure. The approach of sending high numbers of troops with basic AK47 will not do. It will result in high casualties and a cause us to become a laughing stock on the international stage.

Britain has been fighting in Afghanistan for over 15 years, with a loss of 405 troops. That is 27 soldiers lost each year, compare that to our casualty figure in Boko haram each month.

If we are sending soldiers they should be properly equipped, so that just the fear of responsive repercussions will restraint any attempts by Gambian rogue forces to engage with our boys.
