This is another headache the security agencies would have to deal with if they are to bring BH down to its knees. Imagine the amount of funds that would be available to the terror organisation if those cattles were successfully sold. Every channel of sourcing funds must be blocked to cripple their financial activities. Take away their financial wherewithal and lets see how they would effectively prosecute this war.
I believe the security agencies are up to the task. They need to be creative and very decisive.

You are right mate.

Cut off all source of financial incomes and sponsor's and BHT activities will be paralyzed. Our security outfit are doing a nice job, yet more is excepted from them. They just av to step up there game and be more proactive.

i think this the best reason why there are civilian-military and police-military clashes. Alot of Police jobs are being done by the Military--almost every state had a security formation that entails deployment of soldiers. So many tasks are been left to the military to handle even Robbery is not left out.
So, IMO the Police force should be trained Better and Equipped to face and deal with challenges THAT ARE ORIGINALLY their's than to depend/call on the military to take on tasks that are getting outta their control.
On the other hand, i don't blame the Police for 'pushing' some of their tasks to the military because MOST times, you will see Policemen escorting Bullion van wearing no Bullet proof vests or helments --just hanging onto life with just their AK's and handkerchief covering their nose. It's a known fact that they are the 'first' contact with criminals and to discharged their duties well, i think they should be kitted/trained to a level where they can take on "Determined" Armed Robbers.

Long tym @vikkie14: well said mate.

US military: Killed 4 Somali al-Shabab fighters in 'self-defense'


The extremists launched attacks on Somali troops and their U.S. advisers on Monday in a village near the port city of Kismayo, Cpt. Jennifer Dyrcz with U.S. Africa Command said.

Somali forces returned fire, killing several extremists, but the attack continued, according to military officials. The U.S. then conducted its strike, killing four fighters.

"Based on the threatening maneuver by Al-Shabaab fighters and their previous hostile engagement with the Somali forces, the U.S. conducted a self-defense strike to neutralize the threat," Dyrcz explained.

U.S. forces have carried out several airstrikes in Somalia in recent years, killing many al-Shabab leaders.

The extremist group is now mostly active in rural regions but continues to launch lethal attacks in many parts of this Horn of Africa nation, including the capital city of Mogadishu.

Kismayo is approximately 300 miles southwest of Mogadishu.

Nigerian Army to launch “Operation Rescue Final” for abducted persons

The Nigerian Army says it will launch “Operation Rescue Final’’ aimed at rescuing abducted persons.
The Chief of Army Staff, Tukur Buratai, said this on Wednesday when the House of Representatives Committee on Army, led by its Chairman, Rimande Shawulu, paid him oversight visit.
Mr. Buratai, a Lt. Gen., had hinted of the operation in Makurdi on September 22 at the close of the combined 2nd and 3rd quarter Chief of Army Staff Conference.
The chief of Army staff, who, did not give further details on the operation, said: “Once we start (the operation), we will not relent until everybody abducted is rescued”.
Mr. Buratai thanked the committee for increased budget allocation to the army in 2016 and solicited for more support to enable it carry out its statutory functions.
On the issue of human rights, he promised that the army would continue respect and not infringe on the rights of the people, while carrying out its duty.
Mr. Buratai, however, noted that whatever had happened in the course of personnel performing their duty was not “deliberate’’.
He said to ensure respect for human rights, discipline and professionalism, the army launched its human right policy on Tuesday.

Earlier, Mr. Shawulu commended the army for the fight against insurgency and other security challenges nationwide in spite of the challenges of poor funding, inadequate equipment and state of their barracks.
The chairman, however, noted that because they were deployed in almost all the states, performing functions, which ordinarily were not theirs, there had been “friction’’ with civilians.
“We are requesting for quicker responses to the issues and matters referred from the committee to you.
“This is important to assure members of the public that there is a channel that can lead to legal, constitutional and peaceful resolution of their complaints.
“This will ensure that people do not seek extra legal resolutions,’’ Mr. Shawulu said.
He assured that the committee would continue to support the army to enable it discharge its duties effectively.

Lemons and oranges.

Yeah grape & tangerine.

You would av at least watch the video b4 bluffing, must u just type nonsense.

africaken254:
they want uganda to pull out of somali,they even showed a kenyan soldier which i saw a screen shot of him on tweet.they keep dreaming because it wont happen.

Exactly, that was one of the main reason why I said I hate these type of propaganda video. And what's even the certainty that the soldier is not killed by now.

pacretus:
waoo just saw a C-130 hercule....it flew right above my small head(strange).
In ekpoma edo state.i guess they are also monitoring the election.beautiful.
My first time actually.hehehe with some helicopter wey dey disturb upadan

Probably flying in security personnels and logistics. And drones would be also used to monitor the election.

MikeCZA:
Better dev..il.

If a ransom is paid. They are desperate for cash. Reason they started kidnappings.

Al what what aligned groups have negotiated for ransoms before.

Didn't watch the video.

Yeap you did not watch the video.

And am of the strong opinion if the goverment of Uganda is willing to negotiate. Try and watch a video before you comment about about it.

The POW has spent over a year being held captive, how can you believe the terrorist group even if his alive and the goverment is willing to negotiate, the jodanian pilot is a very good example.

SUSPECTED BOKO HARAM TERRORISTS ATTACK KWANG AND BOFTARI VILLAGES

Yesterday, at about 5.00pm suspected elements of Boko Haram terrorists, scavenging for food, attacked Kwang village and Vigilantes from Dagu (which is about 4 kilometres from Kwang), responded and repelled the terrorists attack.

During the fire fight that ensued, one of the vigilantes sustained gun shot wound on his hand and was evacuated to General Hospital Uba while the terrorists fled with gun shot wounds.

Troops were eventually despatched to the area with clear orders to pursue and deal with the terrorists. They are still exploiting.

Similarly, same day, at about 4.35pm some suspected remnants of Boko Haram terrorists attacked Boftari which is about 15 kilometres from Chibok town.

On receipt of the information, troops of Operation LAFIYA DOLE stationed in Forward Operation Base Chibok, mobilized to the area.

The troops encountered Boko Haram terrorists ambush site shortly before Kuburmbula village. They quickly cleared the ambush and proceeded to Boftari.

Unfortunately, the terrorists had set some houses on fire and fled. The troops put out the fire and are currently on the hunt for the terrorists.

It is imperative to state that contrary to rumours flying around some media reports, no life was lost.

Additionally, there is no presence of the terrorists in any of the villages talk less of hoisting flags as alleged.

The troops have continued to maintain high level of vigilance.

Thank you for your kind cooperation.
