You said we lost - what objective did we fail to meet?

To say we were routed is to say that we intended to achieve something and Seleka prevented this. What did we fail to achieve?


So you dont dispute that foreign mercenaries are now actively engaged in combat?

Henry120:


Nope, he didn't.

He only proved more that your base is poorly defended, with 6 APCs for 850 troops.

jl115:

Jap he did

lezz:
Your shameless denials in the face of overwhelming evidence is out of this world.

You really are mixed, clerk.

******modified ******hey! Come back clerk, where are you going?

patches689:


Who said 6 APC's for 850 men?

That is a patrol base or Combat Outpost (COP) for a section of men.

Who says we dont have our own snipers? Mortars? MGL's? as well as UN air-support on call.

Pic related. All the men in the COP.

lezz:
they needn't deny it, my boy. They are stating their heritage which stand in sharp contrast to yours.

I have caught you in other threads where you descended to the brainless savage you are and hate on Nigerians. So you're always having emotional diarrhoea wherever Nigeria is mentioned.

I can't be a tribalist, my Zulu stooge. The reason the citizens of Nigeria stgand head above any African country is because of her tribal diversity. The yorubas alone with their literary and educational prowess , organisational skills are a threat, not to mention the entrepreneurial igbos who combine hardwork, education, mobility and risk-taking to colonise you in your very streets.

Then the southern Nigerians who have the swagger and cosmopolitan heritage to morph into any society with great adaptability and sophistication. The Middle-belterns are a cultural and intelectual spread between the north and the South.

MduZA:


hence a call was made that igbos should vacate Lagos...kwerekwere read this carefully,I don't hate Nigerians but hate only haters..i told you that you will only play the big brother in your imagination ,in reality you remain a refugee in foreign lands..

patches689:


Tell me - what objective did we fail to meet?

patches689:


And this proves what?

lezz:
Ah! You're back from pap-break.

Patches, I'm going to slap you hard across your meaty face!!

Who's talking about objectives,eh, internet lawyer? Your SANDF was beaten black and blue into a retreat after severe losses they had to seek safe passage to flee.

Your troops were defeated spectacularly.

Henry120:


Not only is your base poorly secured, we have a better defended, properly resourced base in Sudan complete with NAF super puma Helicopter for air lifts.

patches689:


What objectives did we fail to meet?

13 dead is heavy losses compared to over 400 dead?

patches689:


Millions of Nigerians have long blond hair?

EVarn:
eish wena...man you are either ignorant or typing under the influence of alcohol.

Henry120:


There is no evidence your Special forces killed even a single Seleka rebel. None, zilch, zero...

Henry120:


No proof he is white. Many peeps carry different hair styles in Nigeria.

"Derenle edun" also carries long blonde hair.

patches689:


Nope argument has allways been about uniform.

agaugust:


Uniform does not win you a war. Seleka has no uniform, but they defeated SANDF in less than 24 hours battle
.

patches689:


You posted no pictures or info about base defenses.

You have only seen pictures of our COP and not our FOB

Oryx operate in the Sudan

Our peacekeeping base in Sudan is better defended and secured than yours which is on the frontline in Nigeria

Your men in Nigeria face massive problems with supply and logistics

A case in point was the initial deployment of our troops to Darfur in 2004, where the Nigerian contingent was deployed without the full complement of their requirement

Henry120:


Not according to the evidence I have. We may not be as equipped as the American military, but sure as hell..... We are miles better protected than the less than rebel SANDF.

Your men only have 6 APCs for 850 men, if that isn't poorly equipped/ massive logistics issue, I don't know what is.

“We fought very hard for one and a half days. They had very good weapons and very good fighters,” said corporal Mohamed Tahir

Several of those interviewed bore battle scars, including bandaged heads, feet and limbs. The rebels said the SA troops made it “very, very difficult” for them to take the town and sweep president Francoir Bozize from power. The fight put up by the SA troops was so ferocious he believed they were facing over 400 men – almost double the actual number.

“They had every kind of weapon that they were fighting against us with – heavy weapons,” said Tahir. “It was a very difficult battle. We lost more than half of the the men only in my unit of 500 men.”

According to Reuters, BBC, and the UN.


"A source with the United Nations in Bangui said the South Africans had asked for assistance from French forces to help them leave the country."

http://mobile.reuters.com/article/idUSBRE92M0AU20130324?irpc=932

"Bangui - South African soldiers in the Central African Republic are seeking safe passage to the airport after taking heavy losses during fighting with Seleka rebels, Reuters reports."



"Amy Martin of the UN's humanitarian agency, OCHA, told the BBC World Service that the SA troops had retreated to their barracks and were seeking safe passage to the airport."


"Seleka spokesperson Eric Massi said the rebels had broken through a line of South African soldiers during their push into the city."

lezz:
political emotions, Zulu. Many yorubas have decried that Oba's statement.

Funny thing is that South Africa isn't going to be even No.2 on the continent eventually.

If you managed to keep up with the argument you would notice that augugbug has been soundly defeated and has resorted to posting pictures of mechanics and passing them off as tank crews

Simple fact of the matter is that your tank crews are not properly equipped

Even sanction starved rhodesia was able to give their tank crews proper equipment

agaugust:


Nigeria is not a hollywood and internet photo army, our tank crews have coveralls and standard uniforms including standard tank crew headgear/helmet with communications attached. The fact that they don't show it all in open photos does not mean they don't have it.

Grow up dude, how much does a T-72 tank cost? About $ 2 million for a tank, then you think a mere $300 coverall uniform is too much for Nigeria to buy? We even sew and make those uniforms in NA factory in Lagos.

Fool of Soweto....see Nigerian scorpion tank crew below in large numbers with full tank crew uniforms and tank crew special headgear.

Mumu you are !
