Where are the survivors?

capitalzero:
During covid lockdown, police killed young people more than covid. If there is national lockdown, police will still kill people.
We are just prospering the day of evil as a nation!!!

In the day evil, no one is safe!!!!

Dialogue is the answer.

Destroying our country is not the way forward.

Nobody will win, we will all lose!!

The government will lose!

The people will lose!

Let us not incite violence!!

Preach Peace, give Peace a chance.

Another dictator in the making.
What happen to freedom of speech? Why must the government control what they want the people to hear?
Which of the information online are false; the security sponsoring of thugs or the killings by soldiers? The order of government to deploy military on the Nigeria street without any war or the the use of arms on the peaceful protesters?
Which one?

Stephandesward:
How fully grown men, can't understand this point, baffles me...... and they keep acting emotional like their candy was taken from them, those people made a conscious decision, understanding the possible outcome, reality isn't American film, wake up.

Stephandesward:
Let's try to be logical, and put emotions away, with the breakdown of law and order across the state, protesters ought to have reasonably stayed away, that's the civic thing to do after the governors call for lockdown and the common sense behind it, to prevent hoodlums from taking over.
Truthfully unless we have more video and observe the mannerisms or the shooters, we can't really say if it's the army.

If you don't have sense and you just pumped up with emotions, I don't care for you.

Stephandesward:
My logical part overrides it, why I can't phantom what they were waiting there for, when the state was already a war zone....my emotions wont push me to unnecessary danger.

Stephandesward:
Did you anywhere see me defending the attackers, I'm pained more than you all, I'm infuriated, I'm even wondering why the officer that led the team, if it's the army...didn't sign for tear gas.
I personally wouldn't obey the order to shot into a peaceful protest.
It doesn't still change the fact, that based on happenings in the state, and killing of policemen and so on, the protesters should have just stayed away, what point were they trying to make?

Three days on one page. Where are our people?

Toju200:
ohh thank you.
My source is from The Defence Web link our Algerian fellow posted.

Toju200:
tell me when I said I knew about a frigate...
Maybe I can't remember .

kabe1:
He has proven that Nigeria has a plan to procure a Frigate.

He told us Nigeria has purchased 2 Frigates, he has not proven any of these claims.

Yes, on the Frigate he is still wrong, but he has shown us a workable plan exists.

kabe1:
On this, I disagree with you bro.

Fieldmarshall06 is right, maybe not on the timeline per say, but he is definitely right.

Look at the procurement of the Nigerian navy.

SDB 3
LST
New OPV
4 x Helicopters.

The plan is coming to fruition.

Toju200:
thank you.i know of The $1bn plan the Navy met national assembly for.
I don't know if it's finalized yet...
So for me I won't take it too yet

chkil1:
well from an unsigned blog post without a source , for myself I won't swallow the information right away , waiting a better source for a finalized contract

chkil1:
from what i found the original source is from the Navy Chief of Naval Staff (CNS) Vice-Admiral Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas 3 years ago

Let's try this again:

All these deadly ambushes are a logical consequence of the "Super Camp Strategy". Here's why:

1) Super Camps naturally lead to giving up ground to the enemy; "what you cannot patrol, you cannot control".

2) Troops based in Super Camps have more ground to cover in their patrols; making them more vulnerable to ambushes.

3) The enemy has all the time in the world to build a better intelligence picture to mount its ambushes.

4) The longer distances covered by patrols means more stress on logistics; this creates a vicious cycle as the NA ostensibly gave up its FOBs because of logs challenges.

5) More of the civilian population is left at the mercy of the enemy; more taxes, more witting and unwitting recruits, more recruits and resources etc.

Conclusion:

All of this could've been avoided. Better constructed, better defended and better supplied FOBs.
Super Camps (located on Sector HQs) could have been used to support say 5 FOBs.

from your own document . its classified as a frigate

.you see only what you want to see . the only extra weapon module that old aradu have is the depth charge module , not used in now days ships . you can look also at the others modules electronics , decoy launchers , systems numbers ...

and the number 360 was in first a reference to the displacement first design 3600 tons . ( in green from your own source) . original meko 360 design was 3600 tons displacement. many constructors put the displacement in the name of the ship specially that it was a new product , first meko built, they changed the names system after for the newest series to A200 , A 100 ect...


so lets stop here . you shared your arguments , jln put his arguments , readers will make their own opinion . no need to write 10 page about this sterile subject .

jln115:
Ok bru you won you provided tons of citations and sources to support your claims and I couldn't respond.

#sarcasm

jln115:
I don't see MekoSAN or the MekoAN on that list my friend

jln115:
Ok point taken Aradu is undoubtedly the most powerful ship ever built in the history of man...... We got it not even the Zumwalt can destroy Aradu

jln115:
you remind me of the film "a beautiful mind" like the similarities are ridiculous
