Leave Gary Payton alone and address the other names that are there. Gary Payton that was nothing more than a 37-year old washed up utility player when he went to the Heat.
Before Durant, did or didn't curry win a championship?

Where was Chris Paul and his lob city? They had 3 good players in their prime on that team same with GSW. So what happened?

What is dislike is when people discredit a player's greatness just because they don't like him. You and many others on this thread are quick to discredit everything curry does.

You even said curry is never as good an offensive player as harden. Haba?

I may not truly like Lebron but I will never discredit his accomplishments because of that. Dude is an all time great and the greatest small forward of all time (to me). But when I mention curry, your BP starts to rise unnecessarily. Why, because he beat Lebron in the finals 3 times. I know it's a tough but to swallow but Oga, it is what it is

So yesterday, Curry went off as usual for 27 pts, on 50% shooting, including 5 3s shocked. Killer stats, yeah? Guess how many assists the "PG" had? 2. And they lost by 30+. At one point Mavs went on a 25-0 run!

shey u now understand why playoff rings doesnt mean best player. Barkley has 0, but Draymond has 3. Robert Horry has like 8 lol. Even Steve Kerr get ring and Gary Payton no get ring. Tmac no even smell WCF. Beal will likely never get one either. Such is life boss.
Gary Payton no get ring? grin grin grin

Lmao, you dey watch basketball at all?

Google na your friend oga

MILITARY Intelligence. They can never have as much assets (man/expertise and machine) to conduct and cultivate Intel in civilian space as much as the civilian agency.

If we can't bank on "DSS and co" then what is the essence of their creation
Your last paragraph is the question many of us have pondered over and even asked on this thread.

Seems they have outlived their usefulness

All rescue operations start and ride on meticulous Intelligence. The disco dancers we have as intelligence agencies are busy snapping up political dancers.

The SBS cannot go and find its own Intel, can it?
Bro, that is why we have DMI. We shouldnt bank on the DSS and co. I think the military intelligence units should learn to be self-sufficient by now

Kit, yes (Except NN). Training; how do we ascertain that? They've not been found wanting in battle neither in international exercise.

All SFs are not SAS or Green Berets with worldwide mandate. With much more investment in kits and even brains (for SF Control and Command) they can only go up from where they are.


AND, it takes at least 6 months to train any SF in any of the 3 services. NN has the longest
Well, I may want to agree with you on the first bolded comment, the second volded comment is what we are clamoring for. What is worth doing is worth doing well. I am not in any way comparing our SF to the SAS or DEVGRU unit but at least, let them be well funded to tackle our immediate National Security concerns.

And please what is the deal with taking out soldeirs to Bulgaria, Serbia etc for SF training? Do they have terrorism concerns like ours over there? You see my point now

Reallyhuh
Am i totally wrong

Don't get me wrong, I am not blaming the boys but the superior officers that dont kit them well

The only times these guts are well kitted is when they go for foreign training and pose for pictures. Apart from that, its rare to see them fully kitted.

In fact, I am beginning to believe any NA regular can just wear that black t-shirt and call himself SF

Odunayaw:
This is misinformation. Just show one proof that their training is 3-4 months. Or are you talking about only the COIN part of their training.

The NN SF is poorly funded too?
I delibrately omitted the NN SF because I can't say much about them. I really don't know about their contributions to the ongoing war and I think someone said that their superiors are delibrately reluctant to deploy them as their training and kits are really expensive (he called them chinese version of the "Navy Seals"wink.

But truth be told, our SF are below par - training and kit wise

The same way you were enjoying it when fulani terrorists were killing, kidnapping and raping women all over the South and North Central.

We know your crying started when your fulani cannibal brothers started to eat their kind. We remember the spat we had with you right here on Nairaland, about six years ago when Baba Alakyio, the Eggon leader of the Ombatse militia was reportedly killed by Fulani terrorists in Nasarawa. We remember how you and a certain Nduchuks use to threaten that Fulani will take over all the land in Nigeria.

You mean to tell me what we call SF take the war to the enemy in small numbers? And doing that makes them SF? Lol. Give me an idea of your "small numbers please",I might understand you better. Oga we don't have any comms problems cos I've seen many on vids/pix go out on operations with comms. The Mainok issue that people were talking about lack of comms, how were they able to request for additional forces? How did they request for NAF CAS, and how did they know the requested additional forces were on the way coming, how did they know there was blue on blue and they had to withdraw. Did they use smoke/drum signal or sent the fastest one's amongst them?
We don;t have SF and I have said it times without number on other threads. Those guys masquerading as SF after 3 - 4 months "rush rush" training are not SF. SF soldiers take at least 6 - 9 months to train (at least because in some countries, it takes 2 years). Besides, our SF are poorly funded (only the NAF tries in this regard) but the NA SF is an eyesore.

Nothing surprising about it. we gotta ask ourselves why some Nigerians should care about cops being killed or govt buildings getting burnt to the ground.
When those govts barely function, provides zero basic services for the people, then what incentive does the people have to protect officials they see as corrupt embezzlers who could care less about the people.
your average Nigerian doesn't respect the police, why should they, all they see are criminals in uniform who chase cars to demand for bribes.
If the govt is responsive to the needs of the people and actually provide basic services, the people will protect them and support them, but mostly in rural areas, that's not the case. So why are we surprised seeing residents welcoming terrorists etc.
I was just about to type these but you have already made my point

If citizens are beginning to cheer the killing of cops, then the NPF should look themselves in the mirror because their antecedents point to the fact that they share a majority of the blame

Like I said earlier on these newly appointed chiefs, especially the Army & Airforce chiefs has to up there games.
It's too early for them been newly appointed that all these are happening, my friends in the frontlines are complaining about interdictions strikes are not been carried out often has before. There tactics are not working at all, the tempo of the ongoing operation Tura Takaibango has dropped.
It's too early to be judgemental but these are signs that there tactics are not working out well.
Kai and many people said that those initial successes where just initial gra gra. They may have been proven right

Seriously this is getting out of hand. The NA is just giving up weapons I think other armed forces in the region
dream about. How can you have such a defense budget and such arsenal but yet keep having your ass whooped up by guys with sandals and AK47. NA has become a mall center for those guys.look at MRAPs just delivered this month is already in BH or ISWAPs hand. Those same equipments would be turned and used against neighboring nations.
It's really a pity when I see what the NA has become.
Greed and corruption with bad recruitment. This is the result bro.

1) NCOs have lost interest in this war. They believe it is being run by their Oga’s and Federal Government as financial conduit pipes.

2) I can see several Soldiers having small kg of gas for their personal cooking. Is the Military Budget also for feeding of staff or not.

3) We have poor communication equipment. In 2018 ISWAP used this same Mainok pattern to run over several bases in the Northeast.

4) what is the salary of a General in the Army to own Buildings worth over a Billion Naira as personal asset.

In most soldiers words “ Baba na to do my own leave here oh, this war no Dey end”

During attacks Most NCOs flee from the trench at the first gunshot from BH. I remember when I visited an NCO friend at a military hospital in Maiduguri. He said they were engaging Bokoharam with their Guntruck before he could say Jack Robinson his Gunner jumped and ran away before he could position to take over the AA he was hit by a bullet.

The Military Generals, Defence ministry etc are enjoying the Financial benefit from this war.

It’s just a pity NCOs and mid range Officers are paying the supreme price.

What’s the price of a small little Chinese drone that military can procure to ensure every-outpost tango in the community has one? Even photographers are now using two Chinese drones.

I have not seen Cameroonians here using Toyota guntrucks. Most of their personnel use APCs as standard.

Like a Major friend here will always tell me “Baba if e set make e no be you go be casualty’’
Gbam..

You've said it all.

This war doesn't seem like its ending. We may blame the soldiers for abandoning their posts easily during a firefight but their reasons are logical. When they are killed due to "Oga's" greed, it will all be for naught

Terrorism Financing: Dozens Arrested In Nationwide Crackdown

Dozens of persons have been arrested by security agents in an ongoing nationwide crackdown on suspected financiers and collaborators of Boko Haram and other criminal groups in Nigeria, Daily Trust reports.

This is coming five months after Daily Trust exclusively reported the jailing of six Nigerians in the United Arab Emirates over allegations of terrorism financing.


The ongoing inter-agency operation is being led by a top intelligence officer, with an army general leading a task team comprising military personnel and staff from intelligence services.

Multiple sources informed Daily Trust that the closely guarded operation is being coordinated by Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA), in collaboration with the Department of State Services (DSS), the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

As part of the operation, billions of naira traced to businesses belonging to persons of interest have been blocked in banks in series of “post no debit” letters sent out to banks by the CBN and NFIU. The apex bank has also lately obtained court orders directing freezing of dozens of accounts flagged for suspicious transactions.

While officials expressed hope that the ongoing operation would be a “game-changer” in the lingering fight against Boko Haram insurgents and other criminal gangs, some analysts say the method may not provide the needed elixir as terrorists and bandits operate largely outside the financial system.

A security source familiar with the operation confided in our reporter that the operation started last year with massive gathering and analysis of financial intelligence and drawing uplink analysis, leading to the initial marking of some 60 businesses and individuals.

A source disclosed to Daily Trust that an initial list of 957 suspects comprising bureau de change operators, gold miners and sellers, and other businessmen are being acted upon.

Already, according to the source, about 400 persons have been arrested in series of arrests in Kano, Borno, Abuja, Lagos, Sokoto, Adamawa, Kaduna and Zamfara.

In Kano, a major focus for the operation, traders at the foreign exchange open market in Wapa, Fagge Local Government, were picked up on March 9, 15th and 16th.

That was the Gun they took from Naval officers at OKUZU.. check out the Muddy Butt as they dump it and Ran... Tomorrow some will accuse the police of incompetent when they're the ones arming them.

Hope you guys can see the Military have started gifting ESN/IPOB Militias with heavy grade weapons
Madam police officer, the police are worse when it comes to arming hoodlums and you know it. The Book Haram and ISWAP we are facing today is because you guys decided to take the law int o your hands and execute a prisoner.

Madam Officer, stop defending Mediocrity. Before you remove stones from someone else, remove the dust from yours

How many months or years should a soldier spend in the Northeast before he can be redeployed?


I met a soldier who told me he has spent 3years and 2months in my location. I felt it’s not right angry A soldier should not spend more than 24months in the NE. A soldier committed suicide last week in a Battalion under our Brigade.

Sincerely PTSD is real. If someone like me chilling in an NGO Guest house with Internet, DSTV, sport equipments can still have PTSD, I really wonder how our guys in the trench are coping
Baba, 24months is too much. The standard should be 9months at most
