Thank you Sir, when last did a son of a nobody call on the police for an emergency and they responded? When last did you see the police respond to a robbery in your area on time to apprehend the criminals? when last did any bank robbery in Nigeria get foiled by the Police? When last did the police carried a detailed investigation for the son of a nobody to help him get justice?


What we see today is the rot that has eaten deep, a grown cancer for years! The political class only care about themselves and not the masses. We have had peace because Nigerians are peaceful people not because we have had security. In this time and day we can't have emergency numbers running and working well?

In the South-East by now with the rise insecurity, almost every state should have been an integrated framework of communication between security operatives, whereby each Police station can easily link up to the next in case of an emergencies and get back up racing down. I saw in Enugu, an attack on a station that happen around 1am by 8am, the corpse of police officers killed where still on the ground! Their own guys didn't turn up for their colleagues.

The Government has forever failed us, it's sad.. these men don't care for us or for the men on the front line, a clear example we just saw the father of the Nation failing to pay his respect at the burial of the Chief of army staff, how do you want the followers in terms of Governors to act now?

They have failed they have always failed it's just showing now I pray God helps us.

Very soon, men would ambush government convoys and the aided would disappear... Their lives don't matter, so needless to waste it for a bastar.d.

Other state that are being hit consistently already have a framework that they work with that have been helping the police in that area push back until back up arrive .
But Enugu didn't because it was not expected to happen in that state most especially that police station because it was built by the community and most of the officers their are their people.
Enugu has always been peaceful

Rich4god:


Element of surprise...?
That's what the are trained for. No criminal will come knocking before attacking. So they should expect the surprise.

With the current man power of our police, they can't successfully defend each station across the east. What I expect is from them to vacate every station and consolidate their man power in protecting the state HQ. Cos right now, the are spread so thin and can't effectively defend themselves. So instead of loosing more men in an already lost battle, they should consolidate and defend the HQ.

I don't think you know what the element of surprise is,it will disorientate you,your training will jump in the wind.
They should consolidate their manpower in the state hq,won't produce any positive result apart from keeping their armoury from being looted .
This will give the UGM an environment to trive and recruit many young dumb people

Sizzorkay:
Funny how we haven't heard from Amnesty International. When these A-holes start getting murded, then they will wake up and complain.
you'd think by now all police stations over there would have been fortified by now, but nope. life is too cheap for that side.

Those police are trying,they have upgrade .
Apart from the last 2 hit on their station they have been doing well. The issue now is that those UGM do come in packs of packs and sometimes do have the element of surprise

Mixture of lies and truths; happened close to my area

What are the lies

Whyem15:


Check the sizes of the bullet holes in the "revolver" and compare with the size of the catridges. Ask anyone with a bit knowledge of guns and bullets.

Abeg leave that guy

.

DubaiLandLord1:
You know nothing about local guns mr man. I've never seen any type of local gun using such type of bullets. Local gun bullets dey absolute different. Maybe dem dey use am for other geopolitical regions sha. But in the west, no local guns use that kin bullets.

Hope you know that the local gun that the guy you posted his crime picture some of them do use 9mm while some with deeper holes uses the 7.

Whyem15:


Well, it is actually medically possible. Not validating the claims of the guy but it is very possible for bullet to penetrate the chest and exit at the back without injuring any important structure. It however depends on the exact location of the entry and that is where medical forensic experts should be called in to assess the wound.

First off we are talking about close range shot,which when it hits there is blow back of flesh,shot in the chest with fracture most likely a blank bullet,
If he was hit from the front there is a possibility of his lungs collapsing except if it passes some inches to the side.
Before reaching marina there is a possibility of bleeding to death.
Let look around those route

Shot on the chest and you didn't die, give me the jazz wey you use

Stormtrooper11:

It didn't. It crashed land after an attempted landing on the runway. It didn't even touched down. I swear. I would only fly turboprop during basic flight training. Those things are really vulnerable during storms,bird strikes e.t.c. The exposed propellers makes it too vulnerable

News said it touched down but went off the run way

Whyem15:
The alpha jet is the workhorse of the NAF, in the course the 11 years insurgency, they've flown several thousand hours. How long until these few aircrafts reach their service span limit? What if they've actually passed it? Same as the beechcrafts.

Before now, we've had very little crash in the 11 years insurgency. If these series of crashes are due to poor maintenance culture, does that mean the lack of incidents in the last few years have been due to luck?

NAF pilots have one of the longest flight experience and training in Africa. So poor training is out of it. If it were training, we would have lost more than 10 within a year considering how frequently they fly.

I think maintenance should also be ruled out cos this plans are been maintained regularly

DubaiLandLord1:
Which social media are you talking about? Go Nairaland front page make you go see most people comments. I'm not on FB or Twitter, but the screenshot have been seeing, nah 50/50 thing.

For anyone to think that his appointment as COAS was through nepotism,that person needs his or her head checked

Stormtrooper11:
I don't think the pilots are to be blamed. No one is talking about ground control. That plane landed off the runway. Don't we have runway lights to guide planes during storms? Blame ground control

What if it went of the run way,after landing

Crash was due to bad weather. From DHQ

SamuelAnyawu:


The areas where these guys stay ain’t hidden. BH Live in abandoned communities.

Have you heard of mondara .mountain

JOSCOFELIX:

Is this not from humAng

youghs:


8km max I think, depending on the round and the mortar

That means an 81mm or & 50mm mortal round will be able to engage target at guzumala

I would like to know how far a mortal round can travel,using maduguri and konduga as a yard stick

Litmus:


My grandparents did same when Nigerian soldiers entered a village in the East where they where in refuge during the last days of the Nigeria civil war. The effective Biafra propaganda machine had long since convinced everyone in the East of the dire consequences of Nigeria soldiers’ occupancy of Igbo towns and villages. Naturally as Nigerian troops rolled in, my grandmum and all the villagers considered themselves finished and yet they cheered and waved raffia, wrappers, even small children, anything they could, they waved in celebration. They did this in terror, to placate the soldiers and to give the impression that they are on the side of forces occupying the area. You’ll find this behaivoyur in all conflict zone, it is a universal response.

it becomes a universal response when their houses start getting burnt and their children start starving or when they are also visited by the same horror they cheered

I find out that anytime the military hit a block most of us here come out to criticize without finding out what the real issue is, what actually happened and always get swayed by hearsay from different sources which you cant confirm except the government release a statement about it.
Fighting a war has it up and down, different country military all have setbacks and mind you they also have their base overrun, lost equipment and also dropped artillery shell and air bomb on their own troop(by mistake).

NuraSambo:
It's almost a week since ISWAP seized Geidam. They are consolidating their grip over that town, winning the hearts and minds of the inhabitants.

It is reported that they preach in Mosque, share religious leaflets and now they have started giving out money. ISWAP seems to be getting their strategy rights while the army is still churning out propaganda about reclaiming the town. To even note that Geidam is the home town of the current IG of police makes the whole thing tragicomical

This tells me something about ISWAAP they need more manpower

fabselad:
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.

I don't think this is from the NA cos I haven't seen this painting before

NafeesaAA:
This is the GENERAL PURPOSE MACHINE GUN (GPMG) recovered from the Hoodlums who went to Zone 13 and got repelled...
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

I hope you don't want to stir a beef in which all statistics are against you.
I can't count the amount of AKS your personnel's has given up due to cowardice .

BigYash:
Chad or no chad oga,but you will agree with me that your current government is the real definition of failure,right?

What do you define as failure

SamuelAnyawu:
I’m not sure the Army said it was the three days ago Damasak attack

Then this will also make me ask this question, why did ISWAP stop their attack on damasak, if nothing happened i think it is best to assume that they will keep on coming to attack damasak. But it also best to believe something happened which deterred them from coming

Xbee007:

Why use old images though? The army has once again allowed Twitter husslers aka, "terrorism experts" to start controlling the narrative. This is why we are seeing lots of made up names of ISWAP fighters claimed killed. Nigeria army and the DSS do not have enough intelligence to actually tell the names of dead terrorists that accurately and consistently.

Have you tried to check the names of the commanders killed before this list and crosscheck it with the one Boko haram realise. I think you should try to cos that will clear a lot of doubt

BigYash:
You want to waste people's children abi?? You do well o,for thinking out loud o. If FG really wants to end bokoram bro, two week is too much. You forgot what chad did with them.. Small chad o... Leaders are cashing out big time from that shit,wasting innocent soldiers daily..

Chad never did anything,stop the fake hype. If they did provide evidence

HQ Nigerian Army
HOW ISWAP SENIOR COMMANDER, FIGHTERS ON REVENGE MISSION MET THEIR WATERLOO AT DAMASAK

A senior Commander of ISWAP, Bukar Gana Fitchmeram (aka Abu Aisha), and scores of his fighters who were on revenge mission at Damasak, fell to the fire power of Nigerian troops Thursday. The terrorist and his fighters met their waterloo as they made a come-back following the neutralization of 12 high value ISWAP commanders in Mobbar Local Government Area of Borno State in a week-long air and ground operations by the Nigerian military.

In a well-coordinated ground bombardments and aerial strikes by the Nigerian military on various locations in the Northeast, the terrorists who were denied any sanctuary or respite desperately conducted two separate failed attacks on Gajiram and Damasak.

The deadly air strikes conducted on Tudun Wulgo, Zari and Tumbun Alhaji, Kusuma, Sigir in Ngala and Arijallamari, in Abadam, Marte and Ngala Local government Areas, led to the killing of top ISWAP Leaders. The Commanders that perished in the airstrikes included; Mohammad Fulloja , Ameer Mallam Bello, Ba'a kaka Tunkushe, Abu Muktar Al -Ansari, Ameer Abba Kaka, Abu Huzaifa, Ameer Modu Kwayem, while Goni Mustapha who was the Chief Imam of the ISWAP escaped with bullet wounds.

Troops’ artillery bombardment and air strikes on April 6 also resulted to the elimination of two top ISWAP leaders including Abu-Rabi and Muhammed Likita as well as scores of their troops and body guards around the axis of Kusuma, Sigir in Ngala and Arijallamari in Abadam Local Government Areas.
The terrorists’ storage facilities that housed weapons used to conduct several attacks was also targeted and destroyed in the air raid by the Air Component of Operation Lafita Dole.

On the night of Saturday, April 10, three other terrorist Commanders including Ameer Umar, Abu Ubaida and Abu Salim were ambushed and killed by own troops around Wulgo / Logomani axis close to Cameroon borders while attempting to attack locals and rustle their cows. The devastating air strikes and artillery bombardment on the ISWAP camps had pushed the surviving elements to conduct desperate attacks and looting missions for food and drugs for their wounded colleagues.

Also on April 11, the Nigerian military bombardments eliminated scores of ISWAP/Boko Haram terrorists on five guntrucks in Damasak. Some of the terrorists were hits close to the perimeter fencing, while others were neutralized while attempting to loot food items in a store belonging to the United Nations as well as drugs and ambulance. However, three soldiers and some civilians lost their lives while properties were burnt in the town.

Some of the terrorist still got access to the town burning and looting items before vacating the area. It is also noteworthy that Damasak has been attacked several times and failed. Troops’ fighting spirit remains very high in spite of the nefarious activities of some local informants who often tip the Boko Haram/ISWAP terrorists on troops’ movements and positions.

Then someone will come here and say our artillery corps fire anyhow.

Stormtrooper11:

Yhh. Presently we are good at playing the fire brigade approach and harassment of own citizens

Have you been reading the army press release, if yes then you should know that they are using their artillery to do what they want it to do.
I have read several press statement that states that artillery was used and also air strike,j would like you to tell me how and what proof you have to counter those statement

Stormtrooper11:

Have you seen our 105mm oto melera in action? I swear. We don't plot. We shoot indiscriminately.

I beg to differ because I have seen this stuff in action, soldiers may decide to blow one of just to keep enemy in check and remind them they are still there.

arantess:

Some of you don't have to insult before driving your points home
The largest US carrier can take 80 planes and you are saying 'almost 100'...

Is 80 not close to 100 by 20

Stormtrooper11:

You forgot that our artillery Corp have highly inaccurate gunners and plotters

Has there been anything that you agree that they are good at
