- henry120 made a similar contribution, which all bores down to encouraging local defence industry, inducting six or more variants of APC is heading towards a nightmare ! It's high time the NA,DHQ and defense ministry see into encouraging our local industry and standardizing of equipment and hardwares! -on the issue of Nigeria armed forces camouflage, until we have our our defense factory/industry that produces is own camo's, webbing and gear here in nigeria, the NA most especially will always and continually look like a ragtag army. I don't know what is wrong with our leaders why would a country as big as Nigeria will always keep on importing wears for his army, how do we encourage industrialization, boost our economy talk less of thinking of exporting to other countries? - on the issue of the NA correspondence for defense news all I See is politics and on the issue if NA never releases front line videos I think it's in NA doctrine, until it is reviewed Al we see his the leaked and quack videos
I really doubt that its a doctrine issue. Growing up in the 90s, we were treated to combat footage from the ECOMOG campaign by NTA..I think its an issue of laziness on the part of the DHQ P.R team. Its really sad that grainy videos is as good as it gets. Also, Proforce makes good vehicles so why continue to import? What will happen when spare parts are needed for these foreign-made vehicles. Proforce should be contracted to build a standard IFV by now. A 30mm canon armed IFV with ATGM capability, in built ERA, thermal sights with tracked and wheeled versions. It CAN be done. All this importation is an indicator of a corrupt government whose officials will rather receive kickbacks from imports rather than develop its own industries.
The Nigerian Army is heading for a logistics and training nightmare. We operate more than 6 different APC variants, with an additional 2 if the U.S deal goes through. What happened to standardization of equipment? How will the military train its Mechanised Infantry battalions if it keeps importing several equipment types? Also, why does the Army use so many uniforms? I can count at least 5 camo patterns employed by troops at the frontlines. This is a professional army, not a militia! Why so many uniforms? The Army should indoctrinate the new camo pattern and phase out the other desert patterns apart from the woodland pattern. The third issue is about why the Nigerian Army never releases any videos from the frontlines. The NTA has been woeful so far. Sending a pot-bellied reporter in Kaftan as defence reporter speaks volumes about the quality of management in the NTA. As far as I'm concerned, the NTA should be privatised or scrapped. If the Army was smart about the media aspect of this war, the 72MSF should have its own youtube channel! Its the best unit in the Nigerian Army so why not "sell" it? The Army has lost touch with the present and believes that Press conferences is what P.R is ALL about.
Why does the Army have no official videos from the frontlines? Its quite sad that its videos like this that get out to the public, painting the N.A as unprofessional. Soon Amnesty International and other cronies will use videos like this as evidence of abuses.
I knew you'd tell me the old testament bullshıts...
Even Jesus was at a time violent in the new Testament. You senseless hypocrite. According to you, God made those laws for Israelites abi? Okay tell me the law God made for other people eg, Indians, Arabs, Chinese etc as at that time. Or was only Israelites the center of God's eyes?
One thing I know for sure, YOUR RELIGION AND BIBLE WAS INSPIRED BY THOSE MEN OF THOSE DAYS. The real almighty God can't be referred to as the one in your Bible making all those silly errors. Another example ; the form of Earth (it's in your Bible that the earth is FLAT) IS THE EARTH FLAT
Relax, why do I sense pain in your writing? ..all that energy trying to defend your terrorist god and his pedophile prophet..ahahaha..I hope you don't also enjoy 9yr old vaginas like oga muhammMAD did..Islam be hunting virgin puccy since the middle ages..wtf will one do with 72 virgins? Is heaven all about straffing? Anyway, greet you virgin-hunters in Sambisa forest for me. You people are SICK.
See all the barbaric law in your Bible" word of god" As far as I'm concerned, Christianity is worst religion in the world. Please be reasonable and read through this Shlts written in the holy bible 'word of god' Your god that you call merciful and tell me if this nonsense can ever be written by the True God;
*** If anyone, even your own family suggests worshiping another God, kill them. (Deuteronomy 13:6-10 )
*** If a man or woman have sex with an animal, both human and animal must be killed. (Leviticus 20:15-16 ). I guess you should kill the animal since they were willing participants. Are you people crazy?
** If a man cheats on his wife, or vise versa, both the man and the woman must die. (Leviticus 20:10)
*** If a man sleeps with his father's wife... both him and his father's wife is to be put to death. (Leviticus 20:11 )
*** If a man have sex with a woman on her period, they are both to be "cut off from their people" ( Leviticus 20:18 )
******* God decreed that a man who picked up sticks on the Sabbath day was to be stoned to death (Numbers 15:32-36)
***** God commanded men to divorce their foreign wives for no other reason but that they were not God’s people (Ezra 9), and women were helpless if they weren’t married in those days. One thing is sure to me, The god in the Bible simply cannot be describing the ALMIGHTY God who exists. That god is a barbaric god. He is a hateful, racist and sexist God.
Consider these stories: In the Flood story we’re told God wanted to destroy all mankind. In Moses’ day God wanted to destroy all of the Israelites. In Joshua’s day God wanted the Israelites to kill all of the inhabitants of the Promised Land. Saul was told by God to destroy all of the Amalekites. According to Jonah, God was going to destroy the people of Nineveh. God also destroyed and scattered the northern tribes of Israel because he was displeased with them. God allowed the accuser to destroy Job’s health and family life just to win a “bet.”
If you find out a city worships a different god, destroy the city and kill all of it's inhabitants... even the animals. (Deuteronomy 13:12-15 )
*****Kill anyone with a different religion. (Deuteronomy 17:2-7 )
HMN WHAT A PEACEFUL RELIGION
Lastly, you miserable ídiot shouldn't tell me that all these shît are in the old testament and that Jesus came to die bullshıts to change all those fuckěry
But your thieving pastors still uses old testament to preach tithing. Is the old testament not still part of the Bible?
You know nothing about the bible..The laws in the old testament were laid down for the Israelites when they came out of Egypt. Jesus Christ is the new covenant we have with God. Throughout his life, Jesus alwas chastised the Pharisees for enforcing such laws when they were not better themselves. The laws of the old testament have nothing to do with CHRISTianity. Get your facts right and stop being defensive. Jesus is our role model and throughout his life, he preached peace and forgiveness. Even on the cross, he asked God to forgive his killers. Be honest with yourself, your religion has left a trial of blood throught the last 50 years. If you like your Allah so much, go and live in Maiduguri and get blown up by your brothers over there.
When will this end? Islam is the world's largest terror group. Islam...Al-Shabab Islam...Al-Queda Islam...Boko Haram Islam...ISIS Islam...Taliban Islam...AQIM Islam...MOJWA
What is the capital of Pakistan?
ISLAMABAD! Oh!, I forgot to add Hamas and Hezbollah Islam is the "slam"

Hemanwel: Obasanjo should go and sit down!Who gives a fuccck about his political role model,when he had the opportunity to turn around the fortunes of the country but didnt??
BTW:
Buhari claims to be spear-heading the war on corruption yet 'saints' like Amaechi,Ajimobi,Okorocha,etc,are dining with him presently in the US and Tinubu,Atiku,etc are walking freely in the country.Until these people are prosecuted in the competent court of jurisdiction,ALL I I SEE IN THIS SO- CALLED WAR ON CORRUPTION IS WITCH-HUNTING AND A VENDETTA MISSION!!

Deathmachine..pls add thoughts if any..Thank you. 4. Unlike the U.S campaign in Iraq, a large number of commissioned officers have been killed in this war..why the high number?
