https://mobile.twitter.com/DaFreshDeltaBoi/status/1251090720162828290 offensive is about to begin

Wow.. the offensive is about to begin.
I can see two 72 MBT, most of our T72 are out of action, not fit for combat. They need serious retrofitting.
Hope the new equipment gets here on time.

SamuelAnyawu:
I said rumoured bro

Yeah I understand.
What type of rumor will say Shekau is in the north east territory ? Only people like you will waste you precious time on such rumors. You will now come here has usual basing your runout that a T72 was destroyed, 80+ soldier died and blabla bla.....
Your assumption and comments are always based on rumors.

SamuelAnyawu:
i Hope you also know that Shekau was confirmed DEAD

When ?
Show me an official statement by the NA HQ confirming or pronouncing Shekau dead !

SamuelAnyawu:
His number 2 man has left him to his faith. Shekau's worry isn't even with the military but with the news filtering in that ISWAP has linked up with his deputy.

His deputy has really been the one defending Borno Central axis (Bama,Dikwa,Banki,Gamboru-Ngala and Kala Balge) from falling into the hands of ISWAP.

if his deputy truly forms and alliance with ISWAP definitely ISWAP will take full control of Borno Central zone and definitely deal with Shekau in his rumored refuge home around Banki-Dikwa-Logomani axis.

This might definitely lead to Shekau moving to Southern Borno, but his only safe heaven will be Damboa axis as other Southern Borno towns (Biu,Shani,Chibok,Hawul,Askira etc) will definitely not provide the perfect cover for him and protection needed as most villages there got a high Intel and defense run by local vigilantes and CJTF. Southern Borno mostly are Christians and not Kanuri's.

If Shekau moves into some part of Southern Borno e no go tey CJTF/Hunters Vs Miltary go use him head play football match

From an Unknown source

You just displayed how ignorant you are. Who told you Shekau his in North east territory. Dude am currently in Borno and once you hang out with soldiers and they give you gist does not mean you know shit about the war going on. No commission officer in the N.E will open is mouth and tell you Shekau is in the Nigerian territory and I know is a clever snitch, he wouldn’t be so dumb.
And thanks for always making up your fake stories and rumors, claiming it’s from an unknown source.

komekn:
Sorry if l didn't get it.

The TING vex me Boko are advancing and the COAS deh announce.

If you vex : you’ve got two options go hang yourself or watch what happens. Sorry you’re helpless.

KingAzubuike:
Very disgraceful.. zero intelligence from the Nigerian army. For an attack to be launched at the COAS says alot about how mediocre the Nigerian army is..

https://thenationonlineng.net/boko-haram-confronts-buratai-with-mortar-gun-attacks-in-borno-camp/

Tell me how this is a disgrace
As a matter of fact this would not be the first time where this type of attack will happen where the COAS his or on his convoy or a high military target. It’s all about propaganda and people like who no nothing call mediocrity or zero intelligence.
And how did you know that they where not giving 1st hand intelligence that a BHT attack is coming or is possible, was the camp overrun .
The camp at Ngamdu is a super Camp, they can only try but pay with there lives. They only came with mortar rounds fired and they quickly retreated.

[/b]Our correspondent gathered that Buratai ordered the troops to chase the ranting insurgents and warned them to focus on a bigger target.
The Chief of Army Staff told the soldiers to see what happened as a distraction from the main operation that they are going to carryo But we defended ourselves very well by repelling them,” the source said.
Another source revealed that the insurgents could have been angered by an earlier advance operation that the troops carried out on Tuesday.[b]

Dude relax

Shekau, Boko Haram Commanders reaching out to mediators for a ceasefire


There seems to be a crisis in the Boko Haram camp as credible sources have confirmed that the leader of the sect, Abubakar Shekau, has been making frantic efforts to seek a soft landing as he prepares to surrender.

This much was gathered from top intelligence sources in the Theatre of Operations in North-East Nigeria. According to a source who pleaded anonymity, he stated that Abubakar Shekau is desperately looking for an avenue to surrender.

“ I think the end of Boko Haram is coming close as Abubakar Shekau has been making overtures through proxies for a soft landing for him to surrender to the Nigerian authorities. He has
been desperate about it, and the intensity is occasioned with the avalanche of coordinated operations launched in recent times against the group, especially in the Timbuktu triangle”

Breaking News!

A very powerful inspirational and motivating message from the Chief of Army to the troops:

SPECIAL MESSAGE FOR OFFICERS AND MEN OF OPERATION LAFIYA
DOLE FROM THE CHIEF OF ARMY STAFF LT GEN TY BURATAI (NAM Phd) ON THE FINAL CLEARANCE OF BOKO HARAM AND ISWAP TERRORISTS

1. Gentlemen officers and men of the Nigerian Army! Gallant officers and men of Operation LAFIYA DOLE! We are right here right now to carry out our solemn and righteous constitutional duties. We are here to flush out these criminals who have been terrorizing and killing innocent and law abiding Nigerians!

2. Officers and men of the Nigerian Army owe it a duty to save our country from the menace of terrorists, bandits and all forms of criminalities. We owe it a duty to the Nigerian people and to our President and Commander in Chief, President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR, for the confidence he has reposed in us to achieve the mandate the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria has given us. We owe it a duty to serve our fatherland and protect our fellow country men and women!

3. Ours is a professional calling, a call to serve our dear country; a call to defend the territorial integrity of our fatherland, which we must all be proud of. We must also be proud of our calling as professional soldiers and patriots. Therefore, we must go all out to stop and eliminate these criminals. We must do it now. There is no better time than now!

4. In this our honorable mission and endeavor, there is no room for the
chicken-hearted. The Nigerian Army of today is for the committed, disciplined, patriotic and selfless officers and soldiers which I believe you all are. There is no room for cowardice and no room for the lily-livered ones. From now on it is FORWARD EVER BACKWARD NEVER! The sacrifices of our fallen heroes must never be in vain! Nigerian Army officers and soldiers have no cause to despair as ours is a noble and patriotic cause. It is a cause we must all be proud of.

5. Gentlemen gallant commanders all levels, you must hold firmly to your officers and men. You must instill confidence through your words and actions. In order to win the trust and confidence of their subordinates, commanders must never show fear or fatigue. If they do that, they will lose all moral authority to lead and command their men. You cannot and must not take men and equipment in to battle without situating it, without putting yourself through the whole course and playing out all the likely scenarios you may encounter and diligently working out all possible options. We must be committed and fastidious. We must consider and workout the minutest details, factors and all possible outcomes in all our operations.

6. Let me reiterate and restate here that I have confidence in all my officers. I have confidence in all my commanders and I have confidence in you gallant soldiers of the Nigerian Army!

Finally, I must remind you all that as leaders our focus must always be for the Nigerian Army. We must think out of the box and beyond the box. I charge you all to move out and bring this war to a positive end! Victory is from God Alone! God bless our gallant troops participating in our various operations, God bless the Nigerian Army and God bless the Federal
Republic of Nigeria!

I love this beastie, does Russia sell this particular T90 has export variants

kabe1:
You know what, Nigeria signed the contract 40 years ago also.

We also ordered 2 vehicles in total.

The actual contract for the JF-17 was signed in 1960, Lord Lugard witnessed it.

The Ezugwu is a cardboard cut out.

Denel is the best and most advanced and most profitable defence company in the world.

Note not 17 vehicles; initially there was a consignment that first came in which was spare parts and munitions for the vehicles.
The second consignment was the deliveries of those 17 MBT, tank destroyer and S.P.A.G, according to some sources and Lt Gen Adeosun , more equipment are still coming in. But we’ve sign up 38 MBT, I don’t know of other equipments.

Toju200:
when was this taken...or is it the former ones

Old ones

blacKDalia:
48 hrs is too much na. 48 min should be the maximum time they need. You shouldn't blame him though, officers in the Nigerian army can exaggerate too. Remember when I was serving as a youth corp member, I overheard the commandant gisting with some fellows that the [/b]NA is the strongest in Africa, better than Egypt. I just continue my waka as per na chics surround am [b]

komekn:
Please keep in context and the diction used.

I said EFFECTIVELY that means thier capacity to hold territory and dominate and control areas will be decimated.

It doesn't mean that they don't exist but that they will not have the capacity to attack towns and render governance non existent in whole local government areas. Particularly in the North parts of Borno.

It’s of no point arguing with you. Your comments are in plain explanation; so what context and diction are you saying. Just admit you’re arguing blindly.

Odunayaw:
true to your nature. You must add someone you know somewhere. Anyway, don't reduce the dosage of weed of that "high ranking NA officer".

48Hrs my foot

Even Americans can’t end BHT in 48hours.

NA NEW DELIVERIES

Habane:
You sounds patriotic, but why are you afraid of saying the truth where you know your message will get to those who matter?

You’ll better stop deceiving yourself.
What message will get to those who matter, on this platform ?
It would have been better if he posted it on verified defence/Army HQ account. He knows his lying !!

Toju200:
The Nigerian Military has said that no civilian was killed during an air strike conducted by Air Task Force of Operation LAFIYA DOLE at Shokotoko Village in Damboa Local Government Area of Borno State contrary to media reports. In a statement signed by Coordinator, Defence Media Operations, Major General John Enenche, narrated that the operation, which was conducted on the night of 9 and early hours of 10 April, was based on credible intelligence reports, obtained from land forces and other security agencies. He said that the information which was vetted revealed that the target location was occupied solely by Boko Haram Terrorists. He said the attack helicopter that executed the mission was accompanied by an Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft to ensure proper targeting for avoidance of collateral damage. Enenche disclosed that the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) pilots, by training and in line with extant Rules of Engagement (ROEs) for the operation, do not attack any location if it is observed that non-combatants, especially women and children, are present. He said rather the pilots would return to Base with their munitions unexpended. He said that investigations were being carried out on the media report to allay public concerns hence, subsequent actions will be taken in line with extant regulations and best practices.

Keyboard warriors oya start your investigations oh
.....

On 14 April 2014 at about 6:45am, two bombs exploded at a crowded bus station in Nyanya, Nasarawa, killing at least 88 people and injuring at least 200. The bus station is 8 km southwest of central Federal Capital

Exactly 6 years ago when BHT carried out one of the most deadliest bomb attack on civilians in Abuja - Nassarawa express road.

During this dark time there where bomb attacks carried out on mosque, churches and Vehicle park etc. the military and other state security service has managed to stop this bombings and pushed them back to the N.E theatre which was there initial staging point. Yet people will still rant about how the present military chiefs are not competent, his is that they easily forget or they are just here to rant.

PRESS RELEASE



POLICE SMASH NOTORIOUS CAR STEALING SYNDICATE, ARREST FEMALE ARMOURER OF ANOTHER KIDNAP GANG

- Recover 21 stolen cars of different makes, arms and ammunition



The Nigeria Police Special Tactical Squad (STS) has smashed a two-man car stealing gang led by one Bashir Isiaku, aged 34, notorious for stealing cars from the car park of the Jos University Teaching Hospital (JUTH). The arrest of Bashir, a graduate of one of the Federal Polytechnics, came after painstaking efforts and investigations by operatives of the STS to hunt down the criminals. Bashir and his accomplice, Aminu Yakubu specialized in using customized master key, crafted out of screwdriver to open and start vehicles. Police investigations show that their choices of cars are ones without special security features such as pedal or steering locks. A total of twenty-one (21) vehicles have so far been recovered from the hoodlums and their criminal receivers.



The following criminal receivers have also been arrested: in Funtua - Rilwanu Garba, Ibrahim Hassan, Kabiru Aliyu, Sikiru Danjuma, Bashir Abba; in Sokoto - Dodo Danbello, Mudeen Adelera, Nasiru Bello, Hassan Bawa; in Kucheri - Magazine Garba; in Tsafe - Yushehu Abdullahi; in Gusau - Abdurazaq Adekoya; and in Marafa - Kabiru Aliyu.



The recovered vehicles comprise 2 Opel Vectra, 1 Toyota Camry, 1 Honda CRV, 2 Toyota Carinae, 7 Golf-3, 1 Toyota Corolla, 6 Honda Civic and 1 Toyota Avensis. The suspects claimed that they found it easy to steal in JUTH due to the lax security at JUTH premises. Police investigations reveal that their choice cars are Toyota products, Honda products, and Volkswagen especially the Golf brand because these brand of cars are in high demand by criminal receivers, either in whole or in parts across the country and other neighboring countries.



In the light of the above, members of the public whose cars were stolen between January 2019 and March 2020, within the premises of Jos University Teaching Hospital (JUTH) are advised to come forward for possible identification and recovery. Nigerians are equally enjoined to take extra measures to secure their cars by utilizing special security features such as steering or pedal locks, tracking systems, etc. In the same vein, institutions and organizations are encouraged to enhance security and access control within their premises to minimize the possibility of theft and other mischief by criminals.



Similarly, a 28 year old female armourer, Fatima Garba has been arrested alongside her gang of kidnappers and armed robbers, notorious for attacking innocent Nigerians around Sokoto, Kebbi, Kaduna and Niger States. As an armourer, Fatima was responsible for ensuring the safety of the weapons used by the gang whenever not in use. Fatima, who confessed of being the gang’s armourer for over a year, claimed to receive a handsome reward each time the weapons were returned to her after each operation. She acknowledged knowing that the arms which she usually kept in a neatly dug hole in her compound were used for robberies, kidnapping and other criminal purposes. Investigations show that Fatima, who is a trader and single mother of two was recruited by her boyfriend Abubakar Usman. Other members of the gang include: Samaila Usman ‘m’ aged 28, Mohammed Ibrahim ‘m’ aged 30, Mohammed Agali ‘m’ aged 22, Dahiru Bello ‘m’ aged 33, Shamsu Mohammed ‘m’ aged 30, Mohammed Usman ‘m’ aged 37, Umar Abdullahi ‘m’ 33, Buhari Abubakar ‘m’ aged 33 and Abubakar Garba ‘m’ aged 37. Since they began operations, the gang is estimated to have made over twelve million naira from their various criminal escapades.





Recovered from the gang are:

- 5 AK47 rifles

- 1 G3 rifle

- 1 Berretta pistol

- 1476 rounds of ammunition

- 36 rounds of G3 ammunition

- 6 AK47 magazines

- 1 operational vehicle

- 8 mobile phones

- Box containing operational tools



All the suspects will be charged to court at the conclusion of investigations.



Meanwhile, the Inspector-General of Police, IGP M.A. Adamu, NPM, mni assures Nigerians of the continued commitment of the Force to the protection of lives and property and rid the country of crime and criminality especially during this lockdown period.

Ablemax:
You guys now see one of the reasons why the US has refused selling dangerous weapons to us

How many innocent souls has died and are still going to die from U.S airstrike.

jl115:
US and its allies have killed tons more civilians in Afghanistan............If you look at the actual statistics and the amount of sororities NAF has flown, then you wouldn't be saying they are useless.

Civilian casualties are inevitable in ongoing insurgencies like that of Boko Haram, its just the nature of COIN warfare!


P.S Im Not Nigerian and thus im speaking objectively!

Thanks man.
To all those civilians who died in the air strike R.I.P
