Nigeria and misplaced priorities. We need to put our house in order first before running around to fix the problems of other countries. We are taking this big brother thing too seriously. 1 Like |

We are taking this big brother thing too seriously.My dear, Nigeria is bound by ECOWAS treaty which she is a member state. Stop making statements like that. Without stopping a war in Mali and Guinea Bissau, where do you think those Russian AK47, MPMG, SMG and IEs will end up ? 2 Likes |

LeoMax: My dear, Nigeria is bound by ECOWAS treaty which she is a member state. Stop making statements like that. Without stopping a war in Mali and Guinea Bissau, where do you think those Russian AK47, MPMG, SMG and IEs will end up ? My darling, there is something called opinion. Ever heard of it? Ecowas treaty or not, I do not think we have the capacity to keep interfering with the politics or affairs of other African nations. We need to re-evaluate our foreign policy. Nigerians first before anything else. Playing West African police does very little for millions of Nigerians living in fear of terrorist attacks. The AK47s, MPMGs, SMGs and IEs have somehow managed to find their way past our porous borders even before Guinea Bissau and Mali. Besides, we have sacrificed enough. From Sierra Leone to Zimbabwe, South Africa, Liberia and everywhere on the continent, we have flexed our diplomatic and military muscle. We simply do not have it anymore. Big brother is being beaten senseless in his own home, time to drag his tired bottom back home to fix things. And oh, by the way, I am a patriot. |

Na for our head treaty start or end?Abeg forget that thing!Even Ghana systematically avoided re-enforce her presence in Ivory-coast.So why we dey worry.Simple tell ECOWAS,una no dey watch aljazeera?We need to tackle our security challenges too.Only after that can we send support to you. |

This is stupid. Nigeria needs to deploy troops to resolve the problem they have bubbling right in their own nation, and the nation they need to deploy them to is Niger and and Chad, which are the nations where many of these BH members are coming from and are being trained. But the Nigerian government is too Gutless to deploy into a bordering nation. |

^^^^ i always pray that the government has not ignore strategy and mobilized a enough offensive military units and arsenal to invade chad and Niger.Positioned in the NE of this country.Not to invade chad or Niger but to serve as deterrent on so many fronts eg. Before rogue groups like the taureg people of Niger will act part 2 of Mali in this country o!Lastly it must be clear that if you hit.you won't last a day.Because this one boko-haram as they take hijack Kano for almost a day,repeat same for Yobe,Borno,Bauchi etc. It is possible they are testing the waters.The day they decide to launch an offensive on multiple fronts.Occupying several states,with there suicidal tendencies it may be a awhile to dislodge them.Talk of causalities.So i say keep a strong response armed force.Add rapid to that. Thats why all new peace keeping quest should be set aside until that is resolved. |

They should all be sent to other countries to fight real wars.they are only good at bulying civilians. They dont even allow civilians to take refuge in the baracks anymore whenver the north is under bokoharam attack.they are cowards,inhuman ones at that.they should go there and die. |

haka_nai: The reason for that was obvious. At the time the Ivory Coast was divided geographically and ethnically and a member of Ouattara's rebel movement from the Northern part of the country was accusing us of protecting Gbagbo's loyalists. Our President John Atta Mills wisely made the decision not to intervene and to instead wait until the political negotiations were exhausted. Atta Mills also told ECOWAS that Ghana's military was "overstreched" or something along those lines lol. Smart move (decision not to intervene) on his part IMO because we share a border with them and the last thing we want to be seen as is an invading army (imagine how Ghanaian troops on Ivorian soil will be interpreted by either side in the conflict). I know fence sitting is morally wrong but we need to look out for the safety and security of our own country first and foremost (as everyone should). Sometimes getting involved in a conflict with two warring sides makes it worse. Luckily, French troops along with some of Ouattara's men eventually captured Gbagbo and his wife thereby ending the war. |

But the Nigerian government is too Gutless to deploy into a bordering nation. Compared to Nigeria, Chad and Niger are weak militarily. They are poor desert countries that on a state level don't pose a risk to Nigeria...so deployment of Nigerian troops to those countries are not necessary in the near future. Nigeria's main issue with those countries is BORDER CONTROL. I suspect that in Northern Nigeria, a region that borders countries like Chad and Niger...the borders are porous so you guys need to tighten that up. |

Thats why all new peace keeping quest should be set aside until that is resolved. I agree. The Tuareg have been successful in Northern Mali, but I don't think they are satisfied with just that desert part of the country. I believe they also consider parts of Niger as part of their "homeland". The Nigerian military should keep an eye out on the situation with them.... because the Sahel region is like Africa's wild wild west right now. |
