LastOfDeMohican:
America will always know

of course, when of comes to protecting their citizens they gather intelligence and utilize it............for naija case is different, they would gather the info and report to their 'father' first before acting if given the green light

kenmaro:
It doesn't matter where they are going to, so long they are moving in a group of more than two with rifles and within or along a possible enemy attack zone, they should be transported by milltary trucks not packed-up in a 18 seater commercial bus. If there is any enemy attack as they are in those buses, the casualty will be very high because those buses are not designed for combat and there is no provision for a rapid response as they are compact buses for private/commercial uses. Nigerian military authority should have a rethink and stop playing sacrificial lamb with our young military force thereby discouraging other young intelligent and highly qualified applicants who truly have passion for military jobs from enlisting into the military because of the corrupt political play that has engulfed the Nigerian military. We should note that: the strength of any nation is its military and economy. As our politicians are going on with emptying our treasury, maybe they also want to waste our military. Please, we all need to stop all (everyone) this unpatriotic attitude and realise that Nigeria is ours so that we make it a better place. No matter where we are or go to, we are all Nigerians and we all belong here and we will all come back home someday. Time is coming when we will all become persona non grata (unwelcomed) in other nations if we fail to build our Nigeria.

point! Thank you.

smoke9910:

DaV8King:
These ones are dead men walking.

Cop killers never last long in NPF's hand.

RIP in advance guys, next time kill and disarm your fellow robbers not cops

as in ehn! They are goners

winj:
I will excuse your ignorance and stupidity and give you some soundbites.
If you arrive Most international airports abroad and are harassed in the airport and streets because of your Nigerian passport, do the research I do all the time and ask why - you will be shown the photos and local newspaper stories of IGBO drug dealers and criminal operatives.

If you arrive even yeye African countries like Uganda, Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania you will be treated badly because you are Nigerian - when you ask why they will show you IGBO people selling fake medicines in chemists, using their female children to carry drugs abroad, 419, opening barbing salon and internet cafes while selling drugs behinds counter.

If you arrive China, Japan, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam Nigerians are people of interest because they have over 10,000 IGBO drugs dealers killed, awaiting death sentences or service long prison terms.

If you arrive South America, you will find IGBO people working with local drug dealers to export drugs abroad or peddling locally.

If you arrive Middle East, you will find IGBO people tricking Nigerians into slavery (described as house help for Arabs), drug dealing, 419, stealing luxury cars from the streets.

Even an insignificant country like Belize where you will normally not find Nigerians, IGBO people have teamed up with local gangs to sell drugs and to 419 land and property buyers.

There is not a single Earth based country I have been where my local research has not shown that IGBO criminals have rendered the passport of Nigeria a taboo.

For the last 7 years, every IGBO person i see at any international airport abroad or in the streets I call police to arrest them. I have written to hundreds of police forces all over the world describing IGBO people and their get rich or die trying mentality while destroying the prospects of other Nigerians.

IGBO idiots describe my actions as hate for ndigbo while I call it helping other Nigerians who travel abroad.

SO IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT PLEASE DO US ALL A FAVOR AND SHUT THE F.U.CK UP!!!

wtf are you spewing?..........go to Italy, and you would see the number of Yoruba's in the mafia clan, involved in organized crime and prostitution...... What about the northerners who commit several atrocities abroad but get away with it because they have heavy weights behind them........see don't let tribalism blind you.....

Buffalowings3:
As if it is the naval officers fighting the insurgency.
Army bears the brunt of the war..

lol ok

tyup:
That's serious but all the same I feel for this young guys no BF vest, body armour, helmet nothing nothing what if boko haram attack them on the way what their hope of surviving the encounter

*sighs* me too, I really pity them

tyup:
You're funny so you mean they use advanced weapons in carrying out mutiny against their commander and he didn't die?

lets kiss the truth....they ve never had any better weapon since boko haram uprise

yeah i know that but you don't get my point......my point is IF they had had ........(they never had good weapons)...... it is cases like that that makes officers doubt arming them with sophisticated equipments

azraeljaheel:
Nah not for fancy

Duck tapes to tape two magazines together when one finishes you switch

lol, all those assets for containment operation, they use those gadgets on offensive, when was the last time naija went on an offensive ,right now they are just restricting those thugs to a particular place....

javaRookie:
Sophiscated bro. Like Gps trackers, pathfinding devices, motion detection softwares, spy drones, satelite body mapping..

ok and if I told you we have them?

javaRookie:
The version of our Ak47 is outdated bro. More recent versions have hit the market with improved bullet damage, accuracy, hit velocity, reload time etc Since 2009.
Its just like using 2g to download a 50mb file while Bh use 3g. Who do you think gat the upperhand?
Coupled with the fact that they got no sophiscated communication devices or trackers.

haba! They have comm devices na

kenmaro:
Honestly, you just spoke my mind. A nation's army being conveyed to the battle ground by commercial buses. It's a very big shame and there is no excuse for this unprofessional act by the army authority & the government. This tells a lot what our young military men are passing through at the war front as a result of the high rate of corruption being perpetrated by the politicians and within the top military authority.

I understand how you feel bro but I don't think they are going directly to the front like that.....they aren't even in full gear

Cannonleo:
Most of you guys actually do not read,

They are not in the AOR-Battle theatre(Borno et al), they are moving from their respective bases to 7 div maiduguri hence the buses, when they get to the AOR, then you will see the MRAPs ,APCs and even the soft skinned hilux(my hate for them)

On the issue of standard ARM, the AK-47 is widely used for one thing and one thing alone, durability, it fires in anything, underwater,mud,in the rain with the lowest possible jam ratio as far as it is maintained. Yes there are Ak-74 , Ak-109, Berly Ak(which is in use by SF), Etc all variants of the AK family , the 47 series presents little challenges in use and maintenance and its cost effective while having a wonderful firing range and projectile area.
The truth is i am a lover of the AK but i think its time general Infantry is made a standard user of the Ak-74,

Other variants are in use with the army but the Ak is seen as a General Infantry assault rifle.
A little tweak here and there, a red dot sight, pistol grip added etc and your presented with a deadly rifle regardless of aesthetic value.

I know face value is important, but why did US troop drop their M-4s for AKs during the invasion of afghanistan simply, the heat jammed the M-4, after that experience the m-4 had to be upgraded to conform to the environment.

Long and short, aesthetics is important for photoshots but when bullets starts flying, its the durability of your head,hand and weapon that matters

point bro....its either the AK or nothing and hey its been upgraded with some tweaks....

The third pic from top

javaRookie:
Come on man this is the Security of a Nation you talking about na.
How much is it that the govt cant purchase but they drafted billions for 2k19 elections.
US dont joke with their military close to $500bn budget o.
Naija govt just making jest of our military.

its not even a matter of purchase, the US,China, Russia etc have numerous weapons factory because they are a hostile country, Nigeria isn't and although we do have a weapon company weve had no reason to mass produce.............

For the point of security of the nation.....lemme explain to you that BH is rubbish just a bunch of political used thugs......they pose no threat whatsoever,....... A threat is something that shakes a nation to the core....compare the activities of ISIS( or even our own Niger delta agitators, the north was quick to quell them cos they were a threat)......theve rocked the middle east and even at some point displaced governments but look at Nigeria is the Borneo state governor not in borno, what about the senators, they still go about their business,.......



So guy stop seeing this BH stuff as some war its just a game to a single somebody..... When the real threat comes you would see the strength of Nigeria....


I just pity all these sacrificial lambs that die everyday

julybaba:
When it comes to the number one assault rifle, AK-47 takes over all other rifles in one aspect: reliability. A study on the rifle proved that an AK-47 can be used even after it has been driven over by tank, filled with mud and water or covered with rust. The world’s most widely used assault rifle, the AK-47s have killed more number of people than any other assault rifle that ever existed. Beside the reliability factor, another reason why AK-47 is notoriously popular is because it comes cheap and there are a lot of fakes in the illegal markets around the world.

point......as compared with the M16's which has continually failed in the reliability aspect...

darqly:
Our troops travel without troop transport instead they are entering enemy territory in soft-skinned vehicles, and they are armed. And there is one boy smoking weed before even meeting the enemy. God keep them.

I don't blame them,I actually blame the generals who are ready to sacrifice their men for money ( the result of the military being idle for a long time)

SirLakes:
For fancy, I don't think so, something is wrong with those guns

Anytime you see an armed police officer just check, it's either a papertape or sellotape, all of them cant fancy tape nah

Ok ooo, but lemme inform you sha that we have weapons in fact we have enough but the fear of equipping those weapons to the wrong soldiers is huge ( take last years mutiny for eg)

Maybe you people don't know sha but we are not at war.....instead fighting BH is like an operation( I am not justifying their deaths).........we have the assets we have the weapons but we aren't using them for reasons I don't know....... We have our own APC manufacturing company, we recently have our own drones, we fvcking have satellites for Ariel reconnaissance etc yet we aren't using them to the fullest....


My point is politicians are behind the crazy way our military operates

Buffalowings3:
I wouldn't want to argue sha..
I spent a year living with soldiers recently.
Don't let anybody deceive you with cheap propaganda...
I commend the soldiers willing to die for this country..
But to me they are sheep willing to go to slaughter..

no no, bring on the argument, who knows we could learn from each other.......

My dad is a naval officer, so at least I have an idea about military life even if he never wanted me to

Ekealterego:
Thats not how it works bro. There are different categories of guns used for different purposes. The efficiency depends on the location and strategy. Ak47 is an assualt riffle. You dont do a side by side comparison of an assualt rifle with a piston or a mchine gun. You could as well compare a shaka bula or a machine propelled grenade. In the world of assualt rifles, kalashnikovs are classics, one of the best ever made.

loud it bro

bigiyaro:
naija is one big joke. the Nigerian Army is the biggest joke of them all. which army transport it's troops in ordinary buses?one Boko boy with 1 one RPG and half of the soldiers are gone. what happens to APCs? two well place mines and that's all. imagine carrying the same class of weapons with the enemy and expecting to win, metchewww, am just sorry for the small boys.

I agree, worst case sef the BH boys are monitoring their movement.....no protection at all

Buffalowings3:
You no dey see that cellotape

yeah but that doesn't mean the weapon is totally bad .......it could even just be there for fancy

SirLakes:
Why do they always sellotape their AK 47


Iyam not understanding

the same reason. Footballers tape their wrist.....

Arda1000:
no developed country is using that thing his holding at hand to fight terrorist

hmmm, okay fine do you know how much a piece of M16 ,AR 10 or AR15 cost?.

So we should use money for projects to buy fancy equipment....... Its just like taking a modded Lamborghini to battle when cheaper battle trucks and Armoured carriers would do the same duty?

Buffalowings3:
See the gun they are carrying
They using duct tape to bind it together
This country tire me

man is it every thing that is bad in naija?.......come on na .....would duct tape hold any part in a metal equipment?

buchai:
i don't know why they always have good phones and cameras to snap but no good weapons to fight boko haram

you are screaming good weapons good weapons,..... There is nothing wrong using an AK in battle.....in fact that is its sole use...its a battle weapon........... If the 'good weapons' you mean here is their artillery then I agree its not sufficient
