And how is that your business that fulani will be exempted and Yorubas given the vaccine?

Can you listen. to yourself?

You are not Yoruba, yet you will go about creating fake thread and information and be talking nonsense?


How is that your business?


Is that how they trained and reared you up?

Osagyefo98:
What is your problem with fulani's for Christ sake?


What sort of stupid hate campaign is this?


Why not allow Yorubas to sort out their own headaches?
I never see oooo

We like it like that.

If Buhari was a failure, how will I describe his predecessor?.
Awon eleregbe a fi igo lo aso.

After a few minutes, the request was granted by Buhari. When Babangida left, Buhari thought about what some officers told him a few weeks earlier of an impending putsch. Although the details were vague, he was told that Babangida was part of the plot to remove him from office. But the problem was that Buhari was not the type of officer who was ‘crazy’ about office. Again, before he made any move, Buhari would demand for a cast-iron evidence. So, when Babangida came, telling him the need to make the army boys happy, he dismissed the earlier thought.

idealogical:
That terrorist flag was flying over our territory like under Jonathan when BH was in control of nearly the whole of Borno state and bombing and blowing up Nigerians at will, even in Abuja under Jonathan's nose, but today, not an inch of Nigeria is under BH, their flag is not flying anywhere on our soil.

What is the meaning of this propaganda thread sef? We kill BH, burn down BH camps and seize weapons every day so we should off pata because Chad the finally decided to rise up and fight their BH friends that they've been harboring and allow to send fighters and weapons into Nigeria.

Their case with BH is friendship gone bad.

This is the dumbest topic of the day.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT, Gen Abacha never looted those funds, they were kept aside to pay Nigeria's debt but the west refused to settle as he isn't in good terms with them.

So an economist suggested that the money could be injected into the west's economy after it reached a certain threshold via IMF/WORLD BANK STUFF


As the funds were being accumulated, Abacha died and the money became stranded

ABACHA REMAINS OUR HERO AND NEVER A TRAITOR.

Nigeria operates on a faulty foundation. It is a country intricately entangled in different ways. But the greatest challenge Nigerians as citizens of a defined geographical entity has been the inability to overcome the indifference to their country on patriotism and loyalty as a people responsible to a nation.

A critical assessment of the actions or conducts of majority of Nigerians gives the impression that some people think their country is a temporary abode of habitation, as they would one day abandon it to an original home somewhere. It is utopian thoughts. Condemnably, this inclination has perpetually amplified national faultlines of ethnicity, religion or regionalism on every issue.

But the narrative on citizenship is different in other climes. Not long ago, President Donald Trump had a fierce confrontation with Speaker Nancy Pelosi over parliamentary debates on whether or not America should go to war with Iran over the crisis and controversies generated by the President’s order which led to the assassination of an Iranian Army General, Qassim Soleimani.

In spite of the official and unconcealed open bickering of these top senior America leaders, all parliamentarians whether of the ruling republicans or democrats harped defiantly on protecting the national or American interest first. In their contributions, all were concerned that personal animosities should not supersede the American interest. This is the tattoo of patriotism and loyalty responsible citizens wear at all times.

And all citizens of other countries of the world do not compromise their national interest, no matter the motivation or circumstance; whether as individuals or corporate bodies. Unfortunately, the experience of Nigeria is sadly different and extremely odd. Here, Nigerians do owe allegiance not to the nation, but their sentimental blocs or personal interests even where these are injurious to the national question.

The media plays an important role in reshaping society and molding public opinion. But in other countries, the media and its operators play these roles with ultimate regard and responsibility to their country of domiciliary. APF, an online newswire is of France and similarly, the Cable Network News (CNN) is of America.

However, no matter the challenge posed to them by professionalism and ethical demands, they do not compromise the national interests of their countries. It is like a taboo for either CNN or APF to practice their trade in a manner that is likely to compromise or jeopardize the national interests of their countries, particularly on security matters.

Nigerian citizens have a different perception of citizenship. They seek every day to pull down their country. They embark on actions which tend to even question the humanity in them. Some media in Nigeria are the worse culprits. Not only are they are excited by the security challenges that have held Nigeria at the jugular, but they ply their trade in a manner that unpretentiously expose them as saboteurs against their nation.

Cyberspace terrorism is globally acknowledged as a new, but very strong and lethal aspect of terrorism. There are even laws prohibiting the indulgence into cyberspace terrorism, which is by every ramification a potent threat in counter-terrorism efforts. But some media in Nigeria and its practitioners have given full support and exercise it wittingly.

Topmost among Nigerian media in this disapproving attitude against Nigeria or their country is Sahara Reporters (SR). This online publication operated by Nigerians owes its existence/funding to external forces. And to date, SR still draws its funding substantially from external sponsors, including countries which are Nigeria’s adversaries.

Therefore, SR has no feeling for Nigeria’s predicaments on insecurity. The touchiest aspect of it is that SR goes out of its way to indulge in destructive falsehood against the Nigerian Government, the Nigerian Military and particularly, the Nigerian Army, which are battling Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorism in the country’s Northeast.

SR has ordained itself as a news platform that has become a concentrated and brazen mouthpiece of the enemies of Nigeria. Every Nigerian and the entire world knows that Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorism which have troubled and tormented Nigerians for over a decade is funded and activated by external forces. The conspiracy against Nigeria is thick and, it is refreshed every day. And the actions of SR indicate that it has conscripted itself into plots to destabilize Nigeria.

So, SR is very incensed that the Nigerian Government under President Muhammadu Buhari and the Nigerian Military have not given terrorists or their sponsors a chance to overrun Nigeria. SR has devoted its news platform to rubbish the Military and efforts of troops in quelling terrorism in the country. They are tacitly frustrating the counter-insurgency operations in the country.

SR does it by mindlessly unleashing a pen and psychological war on the Nigerian Army and the troops in the frontlines through mischievous and fabricated news reports. The intention of SR through such invented and resentful reports is to give full support to terrorists, glorify their acts and embolden insurgents to plot and unleash more atrocities on Nigerians.

When SR is not reeling out fake news against the Nigerian Army, its editorials are fixated on dictating to Mr. President who is qualified or unqualified to serve the nation as Service Chiefs. SR has rendered its news platform to terrorists’ sponsors to ensure Nigeria is defeated in the war against terror.

Regrettably SR has marketed itself consistently as the pen wing of terrorists. It is acting as a news medium to complement terrorists’ efforts in executing the agenda of disintegration of Nigeria. So, SR is now courageous to take their battle to the doorsteps of Nigerian troops at the warfront.

The instruments adopted by SR even question their professional competence and ethical sanity. They engage in outright falsehood; publish unverified news, twist everything that comes from the theatre of operation to give a different interpretation to the public. By this action, they bolster the horrendous acts of terrorists to keep greasing their sponsorship by terrorists’ kingpins.

Just yesterday, SR quoted out of context, the former Commander, Command Theatre, Operation Lafiya Dole. And to blow-up their known mischief, SR speculated generously about deaths of soldiers and civilians as well as missing persons from the imaginary encounter between troops and insurgents. It however never complied with the professional creed of confirmation of the news, but went ahead to publish it.

The online publication sourced the materials for the said publication, after some mischief makers went to town with an alarming casualty figure, as it was done in the Jonathan's era to instigate mutiny in the armed forces. SR faults everything or decision taken by the Army leadership with every bias. Whose interest is SR serving? Could it be that SR is more interested in festering Boko Haram/ISWAP terrorism in Nigeria than devoting their news platform to assist the Nigerian Government and people battle terrorism to a terminal point?

It should not be concealed to SR or its operators that it is into active cyberspace terrorism by promoting the agenda of terrorists and their financiers. What is however clear is that SR cannot continue to thrive in the corporate world on the blood of innocent Nigerians. By the strength of the prayers of Nigerians, nemesis will soon trace and catch-up with SR.

So many of us hardly recall how we used to go to churches, Mosques and market places in fear of Bomb blast and the annoying millitary check points. All thanks to Nigeria Arm Forces and the good citizens of this country. May God bless you and increase you in knowledge. God bless Nigeria.

Days ago, a lot of encomium was showered on the Tchadian army over the attacks on Boko Haram terrorist even by Nigerians; debasing the Nigerian Army over same. A lot of activities led to this which have been highlighted below. Take your time to read through:


1. Nigerian government called MNJTF in 2015 to tackle Boko Haram completely and annihilate them. Funding was an issue. None of the members of the MNJTF contributed shigbain except ur NGR. Then Tchad, Niger began to drag feet when it was time to take the offensive to BH. Sighting

2. Logistics, Protocols, more defined Rules of Engagement, Welfare, and all manner of excuse. The President had to go back again to try and convince every member president and government to commit to the MNJTF even had to relinquish the 1st MNJTF commander to Tchadian Army. Then

3.They took themselves to France under President F. Hollande to try and sort out all obstacles to progress of a coordinated offensive by all members affected by the menace but no show. The president saw no need to continue to appease these guys. Called a security meetings on our

4. Requirements to beat back these Terrorists. He was told our weakest link is the Nigerian Air force.
Buhari said to Sidique Abubakar; give me a list of the firepower you urgently need. They did and he started ordering them. From Apache, Augusta, Mi 35M, Mi-171 E, to

5. Dassault-Dornier Alpha Jets, 12 Embraer EMB 314 Super Tucano, Helicopter gunships, armed attack drones and military transport aircraft. He asked the Naija Air force to send their personnel for training and re-training in some of the best facilities in the world and they did.

6. The same Nigerian government and Buhari asked the Nigerian Army what they need to halt the embarrassment we incur pre 2015 when our army were deserting war front and losing good soldiers to cowardly attacks by BHTs; Buratai on behalf of Naija Army made their demands among

7. Which are ammunitions, MRAPs, APCs, increasing & improving local capacity to produce indigenous made in naija military equipment and logistics, which brought DICON, CED & innoson motors into play (I'm sure you've heard from Maj Gen Paul Enenche on Channels TV

8. That among this brilliant engineers is a 34 years old civilian from Benue State), welfare for Army Personnel/troops on the front line, their spouses and family, rotations, kits which are now produced in Aba and Calabar. Reference Hospital built to take care of the troops.

"They may not av Joy at the moment but yet they work day & night to give Joy to d world. They took down 48 infidels so that you can have a Merry Christmas" #ThankYouForYourService #SoldiersLiveMatters

10. The battle took place on Christmas day. The troops were on the trenches risking and losing their life & mind so y'all denigrating the troops now can eat fried rice and chicken, go clubbing, watch movies and play with your hubbies and families. SHOW SOME RESPECT ABEG.
Image

11. The truth is the naija army has been dealing decisively with the terrorists and killing them like chicken a long time but the BHTs propaganda is very potent, no thanks to our BH SM sympathisers, bloggers, rogue media, fake NGOs and Saboteurs, angry youths and BH spokesman.
Image

12. No much research needed for any right thinking Nigerian to understand that some persons ( State and non state actors) including world powers stand to gain something from destabilization of the entire sub sahara Africa region with Nigeria the main target.

13. This theory is corroborated by many (read recent thread by @DefenseNigeria ). From the Ajaokuta Steel imbroglio which is embroiled in one litigation after another for past 30 years knowing that Most world power today are steel producers to deliberate Oil glut, Weapons ban etc
*** Caveat ***
Again this is my theory as corroborated by many who thinks there's more to shitty deals & diplomatic(error) dealings we get from G8, USA & their NATO allies. Oh! Did I mention Nigeria's ban on coal as a source for alternative energy? It isn't clean they say.

14. Here's a twister, the latest onslaught against BHTs is a combine effort from the MNJTF. Y'all are just hysterical because you thought you found another opportunity to shade your country. In this war, BH didn't need to do much as there are ample amount of angry youths to help

15. Them with their propaganda. The Nigerian Army been killing BHTs for eternity now but you never believed nor have you hail them d way you do the Chadians for finally playing their part. There has been calls for ages on d Chadians to flush out d terrorists who were using

16. Their territories as safe heavens. Chad just recently turned up the heat against the BHTs to save face after over 90 of their troops was killed by the infidels and several others injured. The truth is, this is what we expected of them from day one when the MNJTF was formed.

17. Filter away all the propaganda, hate and the unpatriotic Boko Haram online pro bono vuvuzelas and you'd see the Nigerian Military is the most competent, gallant and well-trained army in Africa. If state actors give the same support and backing they give Egypt, we'd be one of

GOD BLESS NIGERIA.

The present situation within the ranks of the NA is pretty low at the moment. It will take real courage from PMB to reorganize the heads of the NA. There will be no improvement if Gen Buratai is still the head, he has been there since 2015.

At a meeting with leaders of the Lake Chad nations Thursday in Abuja, Mr. Buhari insisted Nigeria must be the sole leader of the joint military operation.

“The whole world is asking why the Nigerian army, which is a big army… is not in a position to stand up to untrained kids armed with Kalashnikovs,” Deby told French magazine Le Point, in an interview published this week.

helinues:
What is stopping Nigeria troops from using same tacktics before going offensive?

Where are the all the money that have been approved for the fight against insurgency?

Commonsense99:

@ the last paragraph, Op Nigerian Government will sabotage them, that's why the reached a deal to fight for a Nigeria based insurgency, excluding Nigeria in the details and plans.

Make no mistake, Israel and by far Western intelligence knows more about Nigeria than you think, here if some people point out that our government is infested with boko haram members, you guys call them ipob, but events of today has proven them right.

justtoodark:
go nuclear is not a option in the world today....

thats why nehboring nations around us are having paranoia and having foreign nations building stuff in their areas....

not even america can defeat nigeria in a conventional war today....

this is how dangerous nigeria actualy is....
