This is an online forum and anyone could claim anything but from the look of things you know nothing and u aint sheet,marksmanship exercise is always done in a range,if in doubt google is your friend.

Not really. It's easy to prove. All I need is to take a few pictures and write your name in real time in pen. Guy, this is why I tell you to stop googling. Ranges can be anywhere in any terrain.

Jaqenhghar:

Spent time with British soldiers in Germany. There is no such thing as bush shooting.

I no even look the moniker before.

neyobills:
Wont disclose if im a soldier or not,what matters is that u are wrong,marksmanship training is done in either an open or close range,in this case they are. obviously not in a range so it cant be marksmanship training mr toy soldier.

Lol. It's like a man who knows nothing about plumbing trying to tell a plumber how pipes are fixed.

If na Nigeria, de go don kill all of dem.

A Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Agusta 109 Light Utility Helicopter has suffered a mishap while undertaking a liaison mission targeted at further enhancing the synergy between the Nigerian Army and the NAF in the ongoing counterinsurgency operation in the North East.

The incidence, which occurred today, 6 July 2017, was as a result of an airborne technical fault with the helicopter. The experienced NAF pilots, however, successfully ditched the helicopter into a pool of water to minimize damage and loss of lives.

Consequently, there were neither any injuries nor loss of lives to anyone on board or on the ground.

The Chief of the Air Staff has immediately directed the constitution of a board of inquiry to determine the exact cause of the incidence while efforts are ongoing to recover the helicopter and members of the board are already in Maiduguri to commence work.

The NAF continues to solicit the understanding and support of the general populace as it daily strives to ensure the security of Nigeria and Nigerians.

It is confirmed. Nigerians don't go to school anymore. "Into a water". Really?

Iamzik:
Or put like 5 Bibles on the dashboard. Bible that will gather dust and they will never open for years....or tie rosary around the rear view mirror.... Orishirishi for Naija sha

Or sprinkle tap water and say it's "holy water "

In Nigeria they'll tie cowrie shells around him and say he's bullet proof.

Everyone here is now a career guidance counselor. The guy is collecting millions and they sqaubbling over where he should play next. Lol.

Do you understand what to "gush" on someone means? Una go just de browse dictionary for words without really understanding the meaning. Smh.

Profkenny1:
Bro, you would be surprised if you knew the population of lesbians in Nigeria...including those who the society has forced to marry men!

True. I just don't understand why Nigerians love denying reality.

sexybbstar:
Look at these beautiful girls.. So no joystick can reset their brains to factory settings?

It is nobody's business who anyone loves. What is funny is this same Nigerians preaching morality are the most corrupt, most murderous people in the world. And they have the nerve to pass judgment on others.

claremont:
Agreed. ''Bush shooting'' might be the local Nigerian terminology for it. However, the first picture shows the guys assaulting a position, they are not polishing marksmanship principles there.

I don hear.

neyobills:
How come u dont know its called jungle warfare training

When you are in training, any training where it does not involve eliminating a target it is marksmanship. You are not a soldier so you would not understand.

claremont:
This isn't a marksmanship exercise.

First photo: Basic assault on an enemy position using leapfrog method

Second photo: Basic arrest and transport of an enemy combatant.

Anytime you are shooting at anything other than a human being it a marksmanship exercise either with blanks or live rounds or for simply qualification purposes. Key point to take into consideration in my comment is whatever the first and second photo says to you, it is still a marksmanship exercise. My initial comment was to correct the statement that the exercise is fpr "bush shooting" whatever that means.

gbosaa:
I was taught differently sir. Where I am, there is a name for that.

If you say so.

gbosaa:
Google what? Did you read the post and the reason for the exercise?

Aim wasn't on target shooting or any form of marksmanship. Focus was on conduct and search with suppression of enemy fire. The objective of the maneuver aimed to achieve that.

Yes I read the post. Like I said, anytime you are shooting at anything other than a human being it a marksmansip exercise either with blanks or live rounds.

gbosaa:
They weren't shootimg at any target. That's more like a fire and maneuver exercise conducted in the woods. They should have BFAs at the muzzle of those weapons.

I should know. I wear my rifles badge with pride and honour.

Are you done googling? Ever heard of live fire exercises? Google that.

Jaqenhghar:
What did he say?

I was just curious because my dad used to do it too. He said it was an old custom of theirs and since we were colonized by them, we just carried on with it.

gbosaa:
That wasn't a marksmanship exercise.

When a soldier grabs his weapon and shoots at any target other than a human being, it is a marksmanship exercise/training. I should know. I am a soldier. 15 year veteran.

The Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar yesterday, 5 July 2017, joined the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Regiment personnel in training at the Regiment Training Centre (RTC) in Kaduna.

The personnel engaged in a bush exercise, specifically designed by the British Military Assistance Training Team (BMATT), to build the personnel’s capacity in Cordon and Search. The CAS undertook the visit in order to witness first hand, the extent of progress in training and in particular, the exercise, which involved the use of one of the NAF’s helicopters.

The CAS stated that the exercise was part of the capacity building initiative of the NAF towards further ensuring the base protection as a means of protecting the NAF’s air assets.

He added, “Our base in Maiduguri was once attacked, we are taking steps to ensure it never happens again”. He further stated that the end state was the security of Nigeria and Nigerians, a task which the NAF was devoted to carrying out. He then expressed satisfaction with the performance of the personnel during the exercise.

In his remarks, the head of the BMATT stated that he was impressed with the rate of assimilation of the NAF personnel and added that the capacity of NAF Regiment personnel for base defence had improved tremendously.

At the end of the Bush exercise, Air Marshal Abubakar had lunch with all the trainees of the RTC, an act that boosted their morale. While at the RTC, the CAS decorated Sergeant Laku Ibrahim and Lance Corporal Yakubu Zachariah with their new higher ranks of flight sergeant and corporal respectively.

The two airmen had since been promoted for their gallantry while participating in the counterinsurgency operations in the North East but they could not be decorated earlier, as they were indisposed. In his address, the CAS stated that the NAF would not relent in its efforts at rewarding excellence, commitment and dedication to duty.

He, therefore, urged all the trainees to remain focused as they were critical to the security of Nigeria and Nigerians. He then expressed his appreciation to the BMATT for their partnership with the NAF, which resulted in the training of the NAF personnel. The CAS had since returned to Abuja for other official engagements.

There is no such thing as bush shooting. It's called Marksmanship exercise.

lordm:
How come all the top military persons in Nigeria use walking stick?

Nigeria copies the old school British military custom. I met a British Sergeant in Germany once and I asked him why he had a staff and he broke it down for me.

Jaqenhghar:
I uave uad this discussion with several people. The truth is Nigerians dont understand how a society works. Or how life in general works. They still believe change starts from the people in authority. So if your orientation teaches you that looting is "being sharp" then when you are elected you should suddenly stop desiring overnight wealth and become a saint. Until that realization sets in anything you will say is just a waste.

It is as if most people in Nigeria's brain is wired differently from the rest of the world. I urge you as a friend, leave that phucked up country.

SycophanticGoat:
Even the person wey post this one, give am small post and see him loot even more than the criminal politicians before him..

I don't have to. For one, i am already successful. Two, my country will lock me up if i had the same phucked up mentality you all have. So you see, i am not brain dead nor do think like an animal.

StOla:
In a country where there is no patriotism and no law, the microscopic few who aspire to the ideals of a sane society are worth celebrating, to serve as the light that might guide the majority out of the darkness that is easily becoming a natural habitat.

Another way to look at it is the country is so corrupt that doing the right thing is seen as a favor.

rychard:
Dress corporately, carry ID cards, walk in well light roads, don't run for any reason, be coherent in speaking when asked questions, dont stay out late, don't visit places you don't know at night without a trust worth companion, don't follow peeps you don't know to places you've never been. Don't jump fences or walk aimlessly around.

If you try all of this amr you're still lynched, don't die alone...

Lol. As if people who dress corporately and speak good English aren't killers. Smh.

NwaAmaikpe:


Ikorodu residens are doing a good job since the Police can't protect them.

The few Baddoo members who were caught were still released by the police because they had civil servant ID cards or were teachers.

Who said Baddoo members are not respected citizens.

And you guys want a great country. Ok. Carry on. That is exactly how to create one. By acting no better than animals. Continue.

gulfer:
Finally a good news

A good news? Smh.

StOla:
I'm proud of this fellow.

There is still microscopic hope in a useless generation of youth.

I have a question. Why are people congratulating a man for doing what he is supposed to do? You all realize that defrauding the government is a crime right? In a normal country, you wouldn't be told to return it. Hold on to it and see if you will not spend time in jail.

Larryfest:
Democracy has never been the problem but the leaders we have cos u will find it difficult not to see most of our past leaders in this present regime ...

pinkcottoncandy:
ALL I SEE IS BUHARI.....

HE CAUSED THE SHIFT IN THE 80S AND HE HAS CAUSED ANOTHER SHIFT NOW

ADEWUMIMichael:
Yes that's it, Nigeria has been having same leaders for the past 50years

nextprince:
The successive depreciation of the naira against dollar can be juxtaposed with the successive leadership of Nigeria.

THE LATER THE WORSE.

keypad1:
Na God go punish that vegtable from daura ooo

They are blaming their leaders. Lol. As if your leaders are the problem. Quick question; where do your leaders come from? Let me give you a hint; they are not from the moon. They come from you the citizenry and if the citizenry is bad, the leaders you will continue to have forever will be bad. Bad citizens=bad leaders=bad country. This is an indisputable fact. Until you all start thinking and acting like sane human beings, you will never bring forth amongst you a good leader. It is not by magic that you continue to produce one bad leader after another. Let me give an example. Fayose was a kid when buhari, IBB, Abacha were leading this country. I guarantee you he complained as you are complaining now about poor leadership. He has had the chance to make positive changes as governor but what do we see? Cutting ponmo and riding on motor bikes is the highlight of his administration. And he is not the only one. You guys think it's bad now. Smh. You have no idea what's coming.
