thats the result of quota system

Correct man

youghs:
If the aircraft is not delivered to NAF.


I Will Find You.

Lol, don't find me abeg. I did not borrow money from you

If the aircraft is not delivered, well, life goes on

BlackBaron:
Out here wondering how almost every new military installation are situated up north.

It's not about the north but the state. Look up Gombe state, and its location on the map, you might observe it is not a strategic location to hold such Reconnaissance assets.

Am not sure, but I think Nasarawa state would have better hosted the new command. The insecurity up north is alarming and the state's proximity to our unfriendly neighbours is another thing.

Please guys, beware of quota system posters here.

Any attempt to cause trouble should be ignored please.

LTGEN:
Could you at least confirm/deny whether the NA took delivery of the Javelin anti tank system ( Chinese version.

It is highly possible we bought them, because our anti-tank systems are old, But I found no direct or indirect evidence. I have checked everywhere but there is no clear confirmation. In fact, from my sources, I would say a big No.

But am confused about this article.

Toju200:
how sure are you..
How sure are you naf is acquiring an EW aircraft.

Very sure. Even the army got some new toys already delivered that very few peeps are aware of. Those army toys are quite strategic hence men kept quiet.

The NAF had already told us they are expecting UCAV. I just helped complete the info. For the EW & AEW aircrafts, they were long overdue. They are silent orders just like the VT-4 tank.
I opened up cos the aircrafts wouldn't be hidden.

medic555:
bosses in the house abeg in sincere opinion who is winning this war, are we or the terrorists winning because i dont get

We are winning. In the last three weeks, ISWAP has taken more casualties than the NA. Don't let this latest loss put you off.

Also note, some terrorists would also have died in the attack. And as we are getting more MI-35 attack helicopters, there would be enough to go round all military operations.

JohnEagle96:
@fieldmarshall06 are you sure of drone NAF is acquiring?

It has been in the news that NAF is expecting some UCAV. It is open info.

I only helped answer the regular question of "which drone". There it is for all of you. I call the purchase cheese burger

Sizzorkay:
Here i thought you were just craving cheese burgers

we pass coded messages, like intel men

FieldMarshall06:
Happy cheese burgers

No one understands. Smh. Those are pics of incoming assets for the NAF.

persius555:
I believe they were outflanked and outnumbered. ISWAP must have lost more men but this they gained in captured weapons.

I predicted this some time ago. ISWAP is on a losing streak, they would throw more men at a vulnerable formation just to gain a upper hand in this fight.

Still not ruling out the possibility of ISWAP having access to some form of intelligence prior to attack.
That attack wasn't carried out by some random Boko haram squad loafing around.

There are moles or informants feeding ISWAP with intel. That is very clear.

They were setting up a FOB and attacked, smh.

Was there no risk assessment and safety precautions put in place. Anyway, quota system officers also contibute to battelfield casualties.

presidency:
The Presidency welcomes the judgment by the UK Court granting Nigeria’s application for an extension of time and relief from sanctions in a $10 billion arbitration case with Process and Industrious Development Limited (P&ID) in Nigeria.

In our view, the judgment is right, just and provides a strong prima facie case that the fraudulent gas deal with P&ID and the subsequent judgment debt of $10 billion against Nigeria was a clear attempt to cheat the country of billions of dollars by a company that had not invested one Naira in our country.

On the arbitration award, it is a source of huge satisfaction that the UK Court, among others, had ruled that:

‘‘Nigeria has established a strong prima facie case that the Gas Supply and Processing (GSPA) was procured by bribes paid to insiders as part of a larger scheme to defraud Nigeria.

‘‘There is also a strong prima facie case that that (P&ID) main witness in the arbitration, Mr Quinn, gave a perjured evidence to the Tribunal, and that contrary to that evidence, P&ID was not in the position to perform the contract.’’

The Presidency expresses delight with the processes that led to this outcome in the English Court, noting that it has given relief to the Nigerian government to further protect our national assets from criminally-minded organisations and individuals.

The views of the UK court thus provide sufficient grounds for the Federal Government to go ahead and challenge the frauds perpetrated by the company and overturn the arbitration award.

President Muhammadu Buhari therefore commends the team of lawyers who represented Nigeria in the matter with P&ID, and reassures all well-meaning Nigerians and the international community of his unwavering commitment to fight corruption in all its forms and manifestation.

Nonsense... nonsense

optimusprime2:
Hey I couldn't just ignore this post...
At first I wanted to be blunt and straight out savage in my response, but it ocured to me that your post was honest and sincere meaning you are not aware of certain realities that exist outside of Nigeria, especially outside African territory, so I decided to be very detailed in breaking down certain things for your understanding ...

1. Adjustment: moving to US means moving to a new way of life, new setting, system, culture, environment, norms and practices etc now these aforementioned factors differ starkly from what one is accustomed to in Nigeria, infact strongly sticking to Nigerian norms in US hinders one from integrating properly in the society and that makes one a cultural deviant and of course that blocks one out from opportunities inthe society ... so how can that be avoided? Simple... by adjustment, evolving to catch up, however the results turnout differently with different people, some completely reject the past and move on while others hold on to the past but still look forward.

2. New Associations: there's a saying, "bird's of a feather flock together" look, if you change location you are likely to build strong relationships with new people and these new people tend to make you see the world from their own view, now that has it's advantages and disadvantages...
It's likely they move on with the progression of new association, leaving the old associations behind or pay less attention to old association as it is of less relevance.

3. The reality of being an immigrant: look, no matter how bad Nigeria is, you can never be an immigrant in your own country, you still enjoy specific "privilege". However in the US as an immigrant, it's not the same... firstly you have to bust your butt 24/7 to keep your head above water, you see these things called bills? They are real, and they can end up haunting you, especially if one just arrived and one is still trying to figure it out. Your friends may not tell you of some jobs they are doing just to stay afloat, honestly some jobs that they may have looked down on in Nigeria could be what they do on the regular and they may not have that state of mind to keep up communication with you, because you have no idea of what they are going through... then again maybe they left to the US on a visit visa and the reality of being illegal has caught up... infact ... bros let's stop the explanation on this immigrant life, just know that being an immigrant anywhere in the world is not an easy thing, not many people make it out in one piece at the end of the day... and this point is actually the most important point.

4. Time difference: this may seem like a little reason but bro it creeps up on you trust me... especially when one is working hard to pay them bills. Being in some parts of the US puts you 6, 7 or 8hrs off Nigerian time and that really just knocks it to you at the end of the day that, you live on different worlds. Now some people come to that reality and move on, while others may still hold on to the home team, look it varies across different people but it is a real condition. Relationships have ended due to the reality that time difference is actually a spatial separation.

5. "The Naija factor": I had to put this here because I ain't gonna lie, once one leaves Nigeria, the problems of Nigeria become very visible, appalling and disgusting when viewed from another country (I call it the enlightenment phase) especially in a system where everything works, in fact you ask yourself how you got stuck in a backward oriented system for so long... some people respond by totally alienating themselves from Nigeria or anything that has to do with Nigeria ... including people. Sad, but true.

6. Cultural struggles: This one right here is real... it first hits you when you realize in the U.S. that your accent in a language you thought yourself fluent in, is un-understandable... some people take in that fact very hard, like they literally go through socialization again just to straighten out their accents, sometimes even food becomes a difficult situation, because some people are not used to American food, others literally bump into boyfriends or girlfriends that culturally format them... in essence, people stop associations with people who don't help them in achieving social integration etc so the response level for different people varies

7. Education and training: Nothing is as enlightening as education, and trust me that is usually obtained in the US quickly, merely living in the American society educates you.
Once one becomes enlightened, old habits tend to be dropped, including old friends with old habits... the only thing that solves this particular point is if you are also updating yourself with a similar sort of education or training that enlightens you on the same level, otherwise a gap too wide on that regard, is a gulf indeed.

There are many other reasons but I decided to pick a few major ones to let you know why your stated instance happens mostly.

Ok.

LTGEN:
9 KIA
2KIA CJTF
2Trucks captured

And 20 terrorists dead.

Nigerians Ignore this thread.

Jerusalem1:
I don’t know why Nigerians will just wake up and travel to useless countries like Turkey, northern Cyprus, China, all Asia countries and all the Middle East countries including that shithole dubai.


If it’s not Canada, UK, Australia, US, all shengen countries please stay back or if you’re so anxious about traveling please just go and relax in Benin republic.

May God never let us to move from fry pan to fire amen

I swear, the thing tire me. Nigerians can go anywhere just to answer "am abroad". I feel no pity for them , am sorry to say.

Before I left Naija, I did much research about my choice countries and eliminated many of them. But some mumu would just jump at anything. And their parents are educated, yet can't guide them right. Smh.

Metrix147:
Chief Whip of Nigerian Senate, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu on Saturday paid an unscheduled visit to Kuje correctional centre, Abuja.

Kalu who arrived the correctional centre at about 1 pm, inspected the solar lightening project earlier donated to the Centre.

The project extended to both the churches and mosques to enhance the worship, as well as other daily activities of both the inmates and the staff, is estimated at 4.9 million Naira.

Kalu who spoke with some staff reiterated his commitment to reforms as well as enhance the welfare of inmates of the correctional centre.

Kalu's arrival erupted joy amongst both the inmates and staff, with many of them chanting "Kalu for President 2023".

Many of the inmates hailed his continued welfare initiatives despite leaving the correctional centre.

Some of the staff and inmates who spoke in anonymity, expressed their desire for the Senate Chief become the next Nigerian President in 2023, regardless of any party.

The excited inmates described Kalu as a true nationalist who carries the welfare of all Nigerians at heart.

Recall that, Senator Kalu spent six months incarcerated at the Kuje correctional Centre.

The Supreme Court had nullified the conviction of Kalu.
