How do you call war/crises photographers civilians

War journalists/journalism.

I can decide to be as a civilian if i have the mind without being member of the force.

All i need is a training on how to take cover.

People were evacuated and some survivors run for their lives in the street as a gunfight ensued between al Shabaab terrorists and Kenyan security guards.

Training to take cover still makes you a civilian?

Just like on NYSC camp, that doesn't make you a member of the force.

Guy, pls stop exposing ur self here.. Go and read. Kenyan Armed forces are among the few actively involved in war today. They have been active in Somalia war. They have been there for decades. Go and read.

Also, it is not about fighting all the time. Your ability to respond is what matters. Nigeria is 3 in Africa and 43rd in the world. yes, Nigeria is ahead of Kenya in rating. Nigeria is richer than Kenya. But Kenya forces are very organized tactical and professional. As for military rating, u can always get ur ratings from https://www.globalfirepower.com/countries-listing.asp

Dude u the one exposing urself...u just said Nigeria is ahead of Kenya in rating, and that has been our argument isn't it? Which country is better in terms of military.

I never knew u were talking of professionalism.

Case closed...Nigerian military is ahead of Kenya. Just imagine that our government doesnt steal the money meant for the military, u won't be here talking this poo

The but u mentioned is the issue bro. As long as there is a but then, there is an issue. The military in Nigeria is not properly managed and operated. Our guys are great. Just like Nigerians are great with bad leadership. The Kenyans u see are well managed tactical and highly responsive. The kenyas soldiers don't go about killing their own people any how like the military does here. The kenyans don't join the military to escape unemployment. The list is on and on. And military rating is not by fighting at all times..

Nigerian soldiers are good but poorly managed. That but is the issue.

Look at Kenya's special forces with their AR 50s and night vision googgles. they all have pistols strapped on their thighs as back up. Damn these guys are prepped for anything. Na AK47 we still dey carry up and down for Naija. God safe us

Explorers:
Kenyan special forces take position at the scene following several explosions and heavy gunfire.


The four attackers, one wearing a green belt laden with grenades, were seen on CCTV blasting their way into the hotel and office complex in Nairobi after detonating car bombs outside a nearby bank .

The suicide bomber then blew himself up in the lobby before the other three began hurling grenades and shooting people as they fled or hid under tables.

Kenyatta said that 14 civilians have been confirmed dead and that more than 700 people had been evacuated to safety from the the 14 Riverside Drive complex which includes a large hotel known as DusitD2, banks and offices.


Somali Islamist militant group al-Shabaab, which has links to al-Qaeda claimed that it was behind the terror attack.

Imagine, they had First responders 'something something', these includes *Police*, military trained personnel who first countered the terrorist attack. That's before the Kenya army arrived oo, based on distress calls and social media. Kinda envious, to be honest. I'm not not sure our Naija police men can do that effectively
