Those guys in Benue are mostly herdsmen. Then the use of police SF, MOPOL etc is very useless in Nigeria if withall their training, they can't handle herdsmen. Their jobs shouldn't be anti robbery or anti kidnapping alone.

The military should not be involved yet except guys from JTF that operates with the police which are mostly regulars. These guys too are good at what they do.

Herbsmen you just say like that.....

herbsmen who carry ak riffles around and understands the terrain...!

dont forget they ambushed and killed some NA soldiers sometimes last year in Niger State, very gury images of the dead soldiers.

All what am saying his our police cant curtail the menance of these herbsmen, even the MOPOLS who are trained by soldiers are not properly equiped to handle them.

Very interesting scenario - comprehensive and balanced

What do you guys think?

As a military enthusiast (and for fellow enthusiasts) I also highly recommend this guys channel on youtube - extremely informative
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPdk3JuQGxOCMlZLLt4drhw

despite being a sock-puppet, he gives extremely comprehensive reveiws and scenarios. The video they made on the Kirov Battle Cruiser v Burke Destroy was so technical it gave me a headache

Nice video and analysis, it's sure Israel will come out the winner but with high lost and cost it will be for them.

And it will be a lengthy war not just like the last one they fought that only lasted for weeks.

To top it all, Israeli is assumed to have nuclear weapons which might be deadly punch against Egypt. The Israeli might want to use them Street a last resolve.

tdayof:
What's the use of NA SF in those places?

Don't underrate these herdsman and militant there activities and rate of killing now his no different to a terrorist sect's.

Trust me, I was expecting this. Now the best BHT will do is to show a video of the aircraft being shot at.


The aircraft definitely went down in a territory controlled by own forces. A control surface or something important definitely got hit then the helo started stalling.

Definitely it's not been shot down by any terrorist AA, there is no ignore of projectile hit or smoke if a flying aircraft his been hit.

It's definitely a mechanical or technical fault..!

PRESS RELEASE

OPERATION DELTA SAFE CLEARANCE OPERATION

1. In line with the Joint Task Force (JTF) OPERATION DELTA SAFE (OPDS) mandate to protect critical Oil and gas facilities in the Niger Delta region, a deliberate operation code named Op EMBER SAFE was conducted by the Force. This operation was aimed at tackling the security challenges posed to safety of lives and critical oil and gas facilities in the region. Consequently, a 7 day clearance operation was initiated by the Comd JTF Rear Admiral Apochi Suleiman to sanitize the region of militants, cultists, sea robbers, kidnappers and other criminals. During the operation, precisely on Thursday 11 January 2018, a notorious militant leader Peregbakumo Oyawerikumo also known as ‘Karowei’ and his criminal gang were arrested.

2. It could be recalled that Mr Karowei and his criminal gang abducted four (4) British Missionaries on 13th October 2017 in Burutu Local Government Area of Delta State which led to the unfortunate death of one of the Britons, Late Mr Ian Squire. Karowei and his gang were also responsible for several abductions/kidnappings, robberies and raping of innocent women in the region including unprovoked attacks on military locations in Delta and Bayelsa States. Also on 7th January 2018, Karowei and his gang attacked own troops at Bolu Ndoro forest which led to the death of four (4) Military OPDS personnel.

3. After his arrest, Mr Karowei confessed to several criminal acts and led troops to his camp to recover the cache of arms and ammunitions in his possession as well as to persuade other members of his gang to surrender. However in a twist of events, Karowei’s recalcitrant group laid an ambush and attacked Task Force troops in a gun battle at his camp deep in the forest. This was in a bid to rescue Karowei from own troops. The superior firepower, resilience and gallantry of own troops countered this snap attack which resulted in the death of several of Karowei’s henchmen and the king pin, Karowei who tried to flee to rejoin his cohorts.

4. The Commander, Joint Task Force, OPERATION DELTA SAFE, Rear Admiral Apochi Suleiman deeply appreciates the support of the locals within communities in Burutu Local Government Area of Delta State and Ekeremor Local Government Area of Bayelsa State in finally uprooting this notorious criminal, who in conjunction with his gang have constituted serious security menace around the general area. The Commander Joint Task Force also wishes to seek additional selfless support from law abiding citizens to uproot all criminals causing mayhem within the Niger Delta. He urges all to go about their legitimate businesses as the waterways are now safe and secure. Furthermore he assures the local communities of the Task Force’s commitments to stem all criminalities in the Niger Delta in line with the mandate of the Chief of Defence Staff as well as strategic expectations of the Joint Task Force.

Noticed this? Nearly every tom,dick,harry and his dog these days(especially the commissioned ones) are happy to post a picture of themselves (preferably on IG ) with a special forces tab on their uniform. Its more irritating when I know some of these ones are in supply and transport & supply corps

The first and the last picture are AFSF guys.

We know SA Special Forces operators are called Recces. Danny Roxo passed Recce Selection (at the age of 41 ) and then joined 32 Battalion. Passing Selection does not mean you're a Recce operator.

The Untold Story Of Nigeria’s Human Compass, Who Led Nigerian Troops Into Sambisa Forest Against Boko Haram And Got Killed For ..


The statement by the Nigerian Army Public Relations Officer, Brig Gen Kukasheka Usman to newsmen regarding the latest attack on troops only mentioned that 4 troops paid the supreme price while 9 were wounded in action when a Boko Haram vehicle laden with Improvised Explosive Devices rammed into an MRAP vehicle, which exploded “killing 3 soldiers, a civilian JTF and wounding the other soldiers.” There was no mention of the names of those that died in that attack until when Ahmad Salkida, a freelance journalist that specializes in reporting the crisis in the Lake Chad, broke the news on his twitter feed, that the civilian that was killed in that attack on January 8, 2018, was actually a septuagenarian vigilante named, Baba Mustapha

Legendary South African Special Forces aka RECCE "Danny Roxo":


In 1951 Roxo was attacked by a LEOPARD, he had no knife or gun on him, leaving him to defend himself with his bare hands. He suffered some heavy wounds, but managed to strangle the beast to death, thus making the first entry in his list of legendary deeds.

In 1975 he was Ambushed by 11 Cuban soldiers after doing an operation to blow up a bridge. After some heavy gunfire went down, the rest of his team ran towards the noise, only to find all 11 dead before him, without him being shot once.

In 1976 his truck got hit by a landmine, and the vehicle landed on top of him, he was still alive for more than an hour, not making one sound of pain. He mustered enough strength to take out a cigarette and upon finishing it, he died.
