The police always had the ability to do this, they can even disarm those silly criminals that terrorize Small towns and villages, those who go by the name Fulani herdsmen.
We live in such a funny country, it’s almost like the police need permission to do their job.

When the Allies first went into Afghanistan they met an enemy who had been well dug in and had over 30 years of hardened battle experience against the Russians and others. That did not stop them they adapted.

The British were still using the snatch Landrovers. After a rethink the. MRAP was born.

The problem is two pronged corruption and poor morale in my opinion. Of which the after effect is inadequate infrastructure and poor equipment.

The public expectations on the military are very low in addition there is in-depth ignorance. That's why when we buy 20 second handed if not even third handed T-72s people think it's progress.

When we buy 120 Chinese MRAPs and 40 Reva MRAP's we go Wow !!!. Our peers are Algeria, Egypt and Morocco but our procurement is not up to 10% of our comparative peers, this is TOTAL MISPLACED priority.

In my estimation over 80% of our defence budget has been lost in misappropriation, corruption and outright stealing.

Nigeria has the capacity to buy 1000 assorted armored vehicles, APC's, MRAP's and IFV'S in one go. But we don't instead we were considering buying 12 ( Super Tucano) propeller attack aircraft for $600 million.

These ambushes will continue because of our modus operandi. You are dealing with guys who are ready to die as long as they can take a few of us with them.

Boko is not over equipped the have predominantly light arms and the obligatory RP7's, IED's and a few technicals.

By going around in soft skinned pick-up trucks, open and unarmoured trucks filled with highly and expensively trained combatants doesn't make any sense. In that environment you are like sitting ducks waiting to be plucked off.

And then our belief that thier is greater safety in numbers. Driving through literally a kill- zone in 100 vehicle convoys. You will be ambushed you just don't know exactly when or where. It doesn't take quantum physics to ring on your mobile and or satellite phones to your demented Boko colleagues and say 100 vehicle convoy is coming your way, ambush.

Collaborative informants is not the problem inadequate infrastructure, limited fit for purpose weaponry is the problem.

With due respect that is basic military training.

Counter terrorism style of ambush us different from a well organized army/military. You can't compare an ambush from BHT sect that has being surviving in sambisa for years , they understand the terrain and when best to lunch there hit and run style.

The last few days ambush, the military blame it on the bad weather i.e: raining season . so what do we and how do we react in such scenario to counter enemy ambush ......??

The IVECO vehicle looks like the innosin vehicle , yet can't the federal government encourage these local industries. You just give them your specification's and that's all, now the cost of importing these to the country.

God bless Nigeria.

BlackBaron:
The terrorists video @ bidexiii. They may be claiming it's Sambisa for exaggerated propaganda purposes, but I doubt it is. Rather, it may be another far flung location.

The bread making and farming may indicate restricted access to food items with a short shelf life which means either they're far from communities or don't want to arouse suspicion buying bulk. Every other thing can be smuggled in or horse back, motorcycle or bought through intermediaries.

Every time the criminals release media, the government should be discrediting them heavily. An ideology hating education, yet uses laptop and 'modems'.

Am 100% sure its not any where in the north east . am sure its one of these neighbouring countries they have a vast unoccupied desert that BHT can occupy.
