All that was propaganda. The man has bought many cars. I also read then that he declined to use the luxury car attached to the Nigerian high commission then. Do you remember him obeying traffic lights also? The man just hoodwinked gullible masses. He is the biggest scam alive and the luckiest politician to have ever ruled in this country

He still doesn't use the expensive vehicle attached to the Nigerian high commission.

That's the vehicle used by the CIC whenever he's in the UK

[s]Do you know soldiers can't withstand teargas?
Ordinary teargas.

Why?
Because it's not in their training.
Na wetin Mopol dey take punish soldiers be that.[/s]

During the time of Sunday Adewusi as IGP, the Mopol were so equipped and feared that immediately Buhari came in his first tenure, he took their equipment and gave it to the army.

Mopol of then, not Mopol of now o. When police dey arrest Coup plotters. Dimka was actually arrested by policemen in present day Ebonyi.

Nigerian soldiers?

PearlStreet:
There are some civilians that make military men cry. Eg. DSS and ONSA.

Even this SARS, Boko boys reportedly fear them more than soldiers. Some of the SARS guys were drafted into the fight against BH. Whenever they catch terrorists, they use machetes to butcher such terrorists into pieces.

This is rubbish. Utmost rubbish and lies.

jom28gy:
beat one soldier man,instead him figh it out,he will go and hire batalion for help

Jurisdiction. We do not bear arms outside so it makes us vulnerable against other security agencies. Reinforcement brings in morale either armed or not.

jom28gy:
.army just dey para,they are not strong like that as people see them to be,if you have seen where mobile police deal with them,you sorry for them

Baba pass me your weed.

Please is that a SSM attached to our navy ship? Any navy guy here?

oga we asked for story na you no wan tell us

No story boss. I'm currently in maiduguri so less engagement from here.

Raco1010

His information are accurate on the incident.

ugo4u:
Kai!! this is tragic but the source though is questionable cos an ACM(Aircrafts man) can't be a pilot in NAF. Some of these bloggers assume all crew on board an aircraft are pilots, kuma if it's an Air Commodore then it's a mighty loss. What baffles me most is how this happened, assuming the rotor fell off( I've not heard of this b4) but if true it only exposes the servicability of some of our birds. One could only imagine what would have happened if the bird was airborne.

Rear rotors.

jakeporeshenko:
I’m also surprised Naf didn’t go for an ISR camera, it’s possible they have a better aftermarket option though.
Cameroon Air Force went for the full package, search light, rescue winch and ISR camera.

Cost. These can be integrated here in Nigeria by the airforce itself. A full package means a higher cost. Alot of our helos get fitted with isr equipments here in Nigeria.

SamuelAnyawu:
Sincerely i must give Kudos to the Chadians today. This evening Bokoharam came around the entrance to Monguno today and all the army could do was to fire Artillery... But the Chadians here have moved immediately towards that direction to engage these BH Fellas.

We await the Chadians victorous return tonight.


Even the Villagers were praising them as they moved forward to engage BH. Nigerian Army needs to up their GAME

The Chadians unit definitely has elements of NA in it. Monguno is quite deep for a stand alone response from Chad. Na boys must have responded with them.

fabselad:
i beg point of correction.nigerian troops don't operate depn in cameroon territory

Nigerian troops operate on that Cameroonian territory. Cross border ops.

Our aircrafts have attacked targets in the Cameroon. Same with the Cameroonian Mi-17.

Geronimoe:
Oga that's your opinion. I've no qualms about that. If you want to keep praising mediocrity(the bane of the Nigerian society) when obviously there are big shortcomings, I also have no qualms about that. "By the way I don’t think I’ve seen anyone here compare chad to Nigeria", are you saying this for the sake of argument or you are serious, because I'm very sure you are not new here. Chad, Cameroun, Niger, countries that you want to thump your chest to them and always say we are the giant of Africa.

Where's the mediocrity? That our troops also operate deep into Cameroon? That the airforce strikes ISWAP targets deep into chadian and Cameroonian territories?

I don't understand your point. You simply know nothing about th ongoing war with this your view sir. The fact that some ground troops welcomed them in shouldn't be a big deal. It's a multinational joint ops and we share a common enemy and goal so I see nothing wrong here.

IndianRomeo:
. Pray you should not be in emergency situation at sea. That's when you will know that distress call is meaningless on Nigerian waters.

There's always backup at sea. Talking out of experience.

IndianRomeo:
. No back up at sea, it is only you and your God when at sea.

There's always back up at sea.

SarkinYarki:
what of the rest Nigerians who are not Civil servants ? Another proof that the Buhari govt has completely eroded the middle class

Who are the middle class if not civil servants? Civil servants aee those in the public sectors from cleaner to them boss boss. This scheme will help a lot of people.

Sadiqali24:
Hy my friends, I want you to help me out.

I'm an N C E holder but currently in 300l.

There is this lady at my work place(I teach in government school) who is doing her MSc(currently), she profess her love for me and want to marry me and I'm just 22. the thing with women is that they can be intimidated by friends and maybe along the line after giving me so much hope will end up saying, "I'm not her class". your advice is strongly needed please.

The first action is you should discuss with her your fears. Is she okay with it? Are her family okay with it? Now you should identity your own future plans and discuss with her. Do you plan on furthering more or saving some money and going into business?

The fact that she's doing her M.sc and you have an NCE is nothing. I understand your point of view which is hope her love for education won't be an issue. There are some ladies who put love above everything. Rational thinking ladies.

If you discuss with her and she's okay with it then congratulations.

If we're to tell ourselves the truth, Nigerian waters are not safe. Ask anybody that do operate on sea.
I wander why Nigeria media hardly talk about how dangerous the gulf of Guinea is

That was plainly tactics. A single navy gun boat provided security while the pirate were with over 2 or more gun boats.

I have experienced a live combat situation against these pirates which an airforce surveillance aircraft was called in. Naval combat is entirely different with gun boats. You have to start circling around while using the ship that called for assistance as a fire cover.

This situation is now different. There's a single naval boat engaging the pirates while the pirate caused diversion by engaging the navy with a gun boat while the other boards the ship. An effective tactics which will always prove to be successful.

I expected the naval guys to have requested for backup. More gun boats before the arrival of an IPV Or OPV.

jakeporeshenko:
Nigerian navy ship centenary and her sister ship unity

Docked while gulf of guinea went under pirate attack

The pirate made use of a pure military tactics. The pirates came in with more than a single gun boat. The naval guys should have requested for an immediate back up.

The presence of a naval ship alone will serve as a deterrent.

This is not about the navy being ineffective but tactics.

stormwarrior:
welcome back sir

Thank you. Bokoharam seems to be in a huge disarray with a useless pattern of attack that end puts them in trouble. Possibility of leadership issues so I guess everyone is looking for a unit to attack and run move away with weapons.

Whichever way, we remain strong.

LTGEN:
That is not correct.
The NA artillery are one of the best , they have made their bones.
let us leave it there .
There are a lot of NA GUYS that have been to hell and back
despite their well deserved poor image the NPF COIN have fought well.

Also 25 task force. I was asked to contact someone here and I don't know how the mail thing works.

JasonScoolari:
....If I can get the FG correctly, they're trying to tell us that the Nigeria Army are not capable, incompetent and LAZY and the CHADIANS "Nomadic" cobblers fully armed with weapons are better.

What a shame!

If they like, they should form a "Romantic relationship" with the BH boys to cause more havoc in the already poverty ravaged cities in the North, Jason care LESS.

The Next Level have started.... Enjoy the game!

Able God.

This makes no sense. We have boys in their own territory too. It's a MNJTF.

Fynline:
Remains of rocket fired by BHT in Maiduguri this morning

These guys are growing wings.

Odunayaw:
Calabar? what's up in calabar?
Regulars or who?

Hints please

Regulars. They're close friends. What I heard is some were killed during an ambush and 2 or more were kidnapped and later killed.

The navy lost some men in Calabar unfortunately they're close pals.

These are not unusual but it's a bad thing that these things just happen and go.

RIP heroes.

It's not a new thing for vehicles to break down. We tow them most of the time.
