What in that video shows the soldiers are trained? Nothing

These are just guys who know who to shoot AK47 which anyone can learn in 30 mins

Did you see any formation? Did you see any tactical approach?

People like you who fail to call out mediocrity are Nigerians biggest problem

Glad you saw through this and learned that these “gallant” men are not so well trained and kitted; no body armor, no helmet, no tactical formation, no comms. Not even a $100 drone to aid battle oversight.

Like this , We will be loosing a lot of these galant men. Just too obvious. Friendly fire is highly possible with this formation

Yes, it is an old video.

Some of us have seen a few of these videos and we kept our opinions to ourselves - because we are not combatants and it isn't our world. That's why its always interesting to hear the comments of combatants from other parts of the world who can give an honest peer review, so to speak.

Unfortunately, the comments of these combatants from other countries fully validate our opinions and the observations of our untrained eyes. Someone on this thread who claims to have some combat experience in a foreign army has already questioned the tactics and basic operating procedures of the CO in this video. He isn't the only one - and they can't all be wrong.

Even if an allowance is made for online trolls out to do their thing - the comments by foreign soldiers on the tactics and soldiering of NA troops in these videos are overwhelmingly uncomplimentary. They are youtube videos and they are in the public domain, so nobody has to take my word for it.

Before anyone points a gun turret in my direction cheesy - I fully understand there is something called "the fog of war". Bullets and shrapnel on the battlefield don't follow directions on a movie script. But there is still a method to warfare - and there always has been. Real world combat IS messy. It is chaotic and uncertain but at the same time there is a method to it - there is strategy, there are tactics - and there is training. There are formations for each terrain. The way platoon members cross a valley in thick, dense jungle is very different from the way they move across hills and caves in the desert. There is a method to warfare!!

The army commander just enjoy hearing the sound of gunshot. If I was commanding that army, I won't even be shouting all those unnecessary shout talk less of shooting aimlessly. Every shot must be accompanied by a dead terrorist.

This is akin to my nursery school football experience. All you know is that you want to put the ball in your opponent's net. So the 11 of us will just flood round the ball and cause massive commotion, following it wherever our kick force could land it. Zero tactics.. All we knew was Shoot it Kick it!

I know its not easy sha. God protect them


Lol.. Is it not still in this country USA soldiers came all the way from America to rescue their kidnapped citizens (In a scene that would resemble "Act of Valour), without even blinking an eyelid?

Reality and Hollywood dey different when there's a trace of incompetence
the dss actually helped them on that mission

When are you telling the military to go level the community

The military cannot try such in the north. Instead the military will flex muscles in the place they think they can't do anything.

Anytime I see videos of Nigerian soldiers in action is always disappointing

Realistically this soldiers can't defeat any armed group

When you are ambush it's basics knowledge

You take cover - regroup - get into formation -then lunch counter attack


There is zero differences between what this soldiers are doing to what a random group of boys would do if you put them in same situation

I can't see any reason to believe they are trained... Nigerian Army just win bandits probably when they outnumber them

This is sad to watch... Really really sad

Easier said than done , you are at the comfort of your home typing and probably watching porn and you are talking this trash? people like you are the real hypocrites simply because you are not happy with the present administration, so anything that comes out from the administration is a null and void. Bro go join Army make them transfer you where action they, then you will understand that no be by mouth them they win war .

Gallant soldiers should first know what they went to fight for, or against.

Who in Nigeria does not know that the bandits are offshoots of Boko Haram fighting for a country to be governed with Sharia criminal laws; the same laws adopted by the political and religious leaders in the 12 far north Nigeria states?
It's like fighting a war without ending. Because the Boko Haram and bandits with those who adopted unconstitutional Islamic sharia criminal laws share same objectives for a country to be governed with Sharia criminal laws. Sharia criminal laws include stoning blasphemous person to death, stoning women to death for adultery, cutting out the hands of thieves, and other primitive punishment systems.
The soldiers should have known that granting an Islamic Republic of Arewa to the sharia states would end the Boko Haram and banditry phenomenon.

I am glad you thought about that. And that is why you can't send every soldier in a line formation to advance.

Let us look at it this way..

What if there is a trench and it has been covered by the enemies, as the enemies are running away, the nigerian soldiers feeling smart and advancing forward.

They fall in the trench, this gives the enemies to attack. Or in that trench, there are spikes in it.

This is what I mean, that line formation is an old tactic of advancement. It has to be in a form of zig zag, well spaced. Even if the nigerian soldiers chased someone in the street and his men setsup an ambush, team A leading the pack would go into the ambush and not the entire "line formation" (team).

Same thing about my trench example. Team A would likely fall into the trench ,creating other team in a zig zag motion to be aware and not fall into the trench.

Omo, with your tactics, you will kill a platoon. We learned this in the USarmy.

Lol, the infiltrated, overstretched and underpaid Nigerian army that has a front in multiple internal locations wan do multiple team zigzag.

Hmmm.

The North continue to breed potential Terrorists thru an outlandish educational system called the Almajiri.
When u give birth to battalions of children that you cannot cater for or send to school, you allow them roam streets and they are easy recruits for Terrorists, what do u expects?

And that clueless fool that called himself Buhari allowed the situation to get worse when he called them bandits and started dishing out amnesty to Terrorists.
Tinubu should deploy mercenaries into the north to wipe out the Terrorists once and for all.

The fault is not yours please but the Internet. Anybody can hide at the back of the keyboard and type nonsense.
