Toju200: the perhaps the drone got there in time and then what It will do nothing Would you want to carry out airstrikes and take out civilians too Our problem isn't the location of the hostages but getting them out "Safely" without civilian casualties and use of kinetics chances are like 30-20% success
The drone was supposed to tell them where these people are kept aid in planning a rescue ops. Instead of doling out 100m per person as ransom.
Thanks for your response. When you say detailed statement, do you mean the one they share when I use the “send to embassy” feature on their website as opposed to the statement I can print out from their page?
Yes, the one that shows inflow & monthly balance, not really, haven't used that feature before.
iamrichiefola: I just check my Stanbic IBTC Equity Fund (after a long time of not checking) only to find out that there have been losses. I checked just now and noticed more loss.
Would you advise I pull out my money or just watch it for some time?
[b][/b]PS: More than half of the interest accrued over time is gone
Dont ever pull out, thats one mistake you will regret, the funds assigned units to you at entry so whatever happens, your units are intact, once the price wakes up, you recover everything including interest if you are patient, if you exit now, you are selling those units less than you bought it, there is no chance of recovery.
Was wondering if anyone has been able to use their AXA money market fund account as POF for tourist visa application or Express Entry POF. I’m considering moving some funds from a traditional savings account to the AXA MMF because of the higher interests. Was wondering if it’s accepted as a valid POF document for the two needs stated above.
I’m particular about AXA as I already use them but want to go all in. Thanks.
Yes but only the detailed statement works, it works better than your traditional bank account.

That must be when he was still alive, now he is an ancestor! A man that moves your destiny around with a Bullion van offers you WAEC fees you go rejoicing? stop making it obvious you are incurably dumb!!
Micromaker23: you are not well for saying that , so if you love someone and give the person your all and you get bad in return so it means the person is not mentally ok ? You are not ok yourself, and you men saying these things your sons will suffer these things , instead of you to atleast analys it and confront it you are saying this, let me tell you ,travel round expecially African countries and you will see good pretty girls that are not moved by what they look like , go to Nigerian dating sites you cant see any decent girl for dating. All the girls are all hustlers .
Like I said, you are a very low IQ, you don't deserve a woman, its too risky to allow you spread your genes to an innocent generation. Being a man isnt determined by privates but your ability to reason, you lack the later.
Torture2020: You dey craze well well. Nigeria paid salaries of Ghana soldiers? can you post your evidence so the whole world will see it? You are just a fooolish liar. You better focus on nigeria and nigerians. what nigerians need is food, electricity, security and a future for their children and families.
Today, Nigerians don't have food, they don't have security, they don't have electricity. they don't even have a future for their children and their families. and you are here talking like a f00l?
Nigeria continued to bear over 70% of the financial cost for sustaining ECOMOG in Sierra Leone. A BBC news source had put the cost of Nigeria’s involvement in Sierra Leone at almost 8 billion dollars (Sierra Leone profile, 2008). Nigeria had not only spent a lot on welfare, allowances, food, medical and other essential needs alongside the equipment, logistics and weapons of contributing countries, but was also paying the salaries and allowances of their troops (Kusa, 2007). However, all this becomes insignificant when one considers the painful fact that a large number of troops died because they lacked sufficient body armor, welfare, and logistics while fighting,
MAN1960ii: The GFP ranking is fvcked up, I took my time to study the ranking my self and I discovered that the ranking is a child's play, in 2021 GFP said Nigeria have 2,000 armored vehicles now in 2022 GFP said Nigeria have 2,019 armored vehicles and this is not true because the Nigerian army alone received up to 300 armored vehicles not including other forces.. The total number of our active personal has been the same since 2018 while the nigerian army has been recruiting thousands of troops just last year Nigeria army alone recruited 8,000 men in the first six months and another 4,800 past out in November bring the total numbers of troops recruited to 12,800 not including other force and that's one third of the entire south African army.. there are many things that I saw in their 2022 update that makes me believe that Global fire power ranking is a child's play and one of those things are 1: ranking a declining South Africa military ahead of Almighty Algeria
None of the countries you mention can do anything militarily for Nigeria in Africa except the North Africans but they have their hands full. In fact we are doing a far better job.
You cant make this statement with a straight face, you dont understand how a military coalition works, learn a thing or two from NATO, let me give you some examples, as useless as you think they are, if all the 55 member AU states give you 2,000 soldiers each, the lake Chad basin will be dominated by 110,000 soldiers, thats half of Nigeria's armed forces if we are fighting alone, Iswap & boko will be out gunned & out numbered from day one, thats a strategic advantage. If AU demands that 30% of the infantry component will be in protected mobility, you are looking at 4,000 variants of MRAPS, APC, IFVs etc, meanwhile, Nigeria fighting alone took 12yrs to provide protected mobility for just special forces operatives, my best guess is less than 500pcs, are you seeing another advantage? in materials, all member states dont need to provide equally Egypt alone can donate 1,000 APC's after all, it equally protects her soldiers while others donate according to their capacities, bottom line is this; that AOR will be flooded with protected mobility. 75% or more deaths of Nigerian soldiers occurred during Ambushes which is possible because of lack of Transport helos. while Nigeria's Mi17 alone are over worked & over stretched, there is no member states without a transport helo, should they donate just 1 transport helo, the AOR will be flooded with 55pcs, I can go on and on. Does it not surprise you that while Britain was shipping out Stinger missiles to Ukraine, Estonia and other smaller members were providing transportation, every effort counts, US provided just refueling Tankers in the French enforcement of no fly zone in Libya, I can go on and on, dont ever think for a second that any African country is useless in a military coalition, yes they can give you men, thats priceless!!
Isn't it a shame that in the 21st century Africa is still talking of the relevance of a weak colonial power. Nations evolve when they fill the void. France is relevant in Francophone Africa because Nigeria isn't but doesn't mean it can't be and reaping all that benefits France reaps.
This is an ignorant statement, but I forgive you, it is an absurd scenario because you got a good deal from Britain thanks to your independence negotiators, these Francophones didnt & they are living through their choice, with your level of ignorance, you wont do any better.
France is France, Nigeria is Nigeria, France colonized them, Nigeria didnt, they have an agreement, France is benefitting immensely from that agreement, colonial tax alone rakes in $10b for the French absent other trade concessions, here you are suggesting that France makes the money then Nigeria will go do their fighting, are you ok?
Can Nigeria play the role of France? hell no!! these countries were never independent from the word GO!! so Nigeria thinking about it will put us at cross roads with France, im sure you already know the outcome, according to Donald Duke, then governor of Cross river state in a 2013minterview, he confirmed that France forced Obasanjo to sign the green tree agreement that ceded Bakassi to Cameroon. If Obasanjo said NO!!, you would have been an area boy in one UN secured buffer zone by now as an administrative refugee.
Covert1: The first mistake was letting Asimi Goita get away with it in Mali, then failed to impose a no fly zone in Guinea and intervene militarily in both countries however bad it looked optically especially doing so for the former third term president in Guinea. Now Burkina Faso, I mean these guys are basically plotting among themselves to circumvent ECOWAS sanctions, you don't need a seer to read between the lines. It's all carefully orchestrated under the usual guise of failed politicians something we know too well as the slogan of soldiers for taking power. It is merely cowardice, soldiers can't fight rampaging terrorists then leave their jobs at the front for cozy offices in the capital siphoning the commonwealth to distant lands.
Nigeria's president Buhari and its ruling party the APC as with all their ineptitude again failed to lead. This would never have happened under a proactive president like Obasanjo. As it is ECOWAS should quickly negotiate a return of the constitutional order and reinstatement of the president in Qaugadougou or else slam even harsher sanctions on all three countries and shut them out of civilization till common sense prevails among its citizenry to reject unconstitutional change of government. As a follow up activate its standby force for intervention starting with Mali the agent provocateur of all this nonsense. In this day and age a one man rule is inexcusable and why is it only Africans suffer from this archaism.
The era of doing Santa Claus in Africa with nothing for Nigeria died with Abacha. you dont suggest Nigeria send her people to die for people that don't give a flying fvck about us, Nigeria has a full blown war against insurgency for 12yrs now, AU passed a resolution to send 6000 strong to secure the Lake chad basin (against ISWAP/Boko haram) and another 3,000 strong to secure the horn of Africa against Alshabab, till date, no country volunteered neither was there a single deployment, Nigeria fought her wars herself.
To correct you, the Nigerian president didnt fail but grew wiser how the real African world works, the same Nigeria that sent 3,000 strong to secure Mali in 2013? what did we get out of it? we were rubbished by the French, these Francophone countries are exclusive French zones, France calls the shot, no coup happens in those countries without the blessing of Paris, if Paris doesn't sanction the coup, it will never stand, Anzawad take over of Mali in 2013 comes to mind, so why should Nigeria give a fvck? France is responsible for their security under the pacte coloniele agreement why should Nigeria care?
Imagine a coalition of Egyptian, Algerian, SA & morocco fighting alongside Nigeria against ISWAP under an AU mandate, do you sincerely think Nigeria would have suffered this long? Please enough of that big brother nonsense, they should take their problems to Paris.
And who told you that? Look again as long as a military would bring stability the super power who would issue all those sanctions would look the other way....trust me the only institution that would bring stability and this war to a speedy end is the military and that's when they are in charge either way we look at it....our style and kind of democracy would and can never help this war effort.....you think when the former military chief is saying the war may last for the next 30 years...he doesn't know what he is saying?
And FYI the military regime would till the war is over and the jihadist are broken....!!
I hope you know what is causing the problem with the military in Burkina Faso? Their civilian present is in detention now...!!!
Don't come here and talk super ignorantly bro....!!!
I cant discuss global politics with a newbie that thinks super powers give a flying fvck about his stability, enjoy your ignorant day.
Oga the army is the only institution holding this country together now and even at that dying needlessly in this war brought by the politicians...the polarity in the country is all hand work of the politicians...what we need now is peace and safety and we can never get that under this democracy we are currently practicing....!! The army unlike the politicians have just one color and which is green and that alone would go a long way to curb most if not all of these troubles plaguing this country....!!!
You are super ignorant of global politics, that military regime wont last 6 months, the wave of sanctions will make Iran look like a child's play. Anyways, Nigerian Generals are way smarter than a military coup.
Aidejay: What will you do if a man gives you 400k naira?
I had an experience today, I saw some girls jubilating that a man gave one of them 400k naira just like that. As a gift for her to support her education. After hearing their story of grand luck and achievement I began to ponder, looking at the climate of things happening in Nigeria and around the world I want to know is it possible for a man to give a girl 400,000 naira just like that and not ask for anything in return, not even a glass of water?
According to the story these ladies were narrating the girl that got the money met the man at a bus stop where she was standing waiting for a car and he gave her a lift in his jeep to the saloon, she said during the drive they began to talk and he was impressed with the conversation and her intelligence so he decided to support her education. That was how he collected her account number and transferred 400k.
Now this story to me is pretty unbelievable, I have many questions. I didn’t ask them cause I was busy doing my work and overhearing their gist.
First question is that, is it possible for a man to give a lady 400k just like that and ask for nothing in return? In fact, lacing the giveaway with advice on how she should focus on her education and not let men destroy her life. Is it possible that in this climate of rituals, fraud, crime and prostitution a man can give a lady 400k like that and not even think twice about it?
To me ooh! If it was my sister or relation, I would have insisted that the man come to our house in front of the whole family and give her the money. Why would a lady simply accept that kind of thing? and not even say come let me show my father and mother who gave me this money. Cause in the old days if strangers gave us money, we take the money plus the stranger to our parents. We show them everything. But it looks like nowadays this has become a normal Monday morning event.
I just held my mouth let it not be like I am insulting them or abusing this "favour from God" that they have received from a kind stranger.
I believe if anybody wants to give anybody money be it a boy or girl, man or woman. From the bottom of their hearts then they should take it to the person's house at the front of the family and friends and present it.
Somethings sound too good to be true.
Dont under estimate the power of stupidity in some Nigerian men, he will come crying on nairaland before the month ends
You don't understand the concept of RWS. It's not meant to be like CIWS
Isnt that my first comment? any Land based RWS that cant deliver like CIWS is useless, I even explained the limitations of these land based systems in auto mode, if you cant engage your MRAP mounted RWS in auto track & destroy mode while on Patrol, it is not worth it. That joy stick BS you saw in those videos has no role in combat, one ambush bang you wont know where to place those fingers. Combat is different from advertisement.
You may find this hard to believe but one of the requirements for the British Army for new recruits. Is a good skill set honed from playing military war games on PS4/5 and other platforms. Ha ha you must think that's very immature.
When we talk about RWS ,you also have semi remote with a turret and target acquisition software , stabilised and incorporated with night day high resolution cameras with thermal imaging converged with your laser range finder
Your RWS will be stabilized that means even when in motion on rough terrain your target software will make the correct compensation as well as does the TARGET TRACKING
If you use a static RWS then you will 95% of the time have HIGH LEVEL elevation giving you spatial awareness and clear unobstructed over sight vision of up to 10km depending on the system you have.
The idea that you will have obstruction because of shrubs , undulations in terrain and buildings particularly with FLIR incorporated in your system. Is honestly a nonsensical proposition without substance.
I'll try and find a few YouTube video clips ,as they say , a picture says a thousand words and I guess a video says a million.
All your video showed "Tracking" in auto mode, I didnt see a single fire engagement in auto mode, pls correct me if I'm wrong, I hope you understand what that means, needless to mention the $200k price tag each, for a country still driving Hilux in battle field.
As with every system, RCWS isn't without it's weak points and blindspot, but with improvement in the development of fire control systems, RCWS are increasingly becoming autonomous requiring very little human input to achieve insane precision and effectiveness. Terrain is also a major headache in air warfare, aircrafts hide behind mountains and other highlands to defeat air defense radars, terrorists use caves and tunnels to evade air attacks. And even when the enemy is using geigraphy/terrain for cover, the vehicle on which the RCWS is installed can simply be moved to a position where a clear line of sight is achievable. Trees and houses are fixed structures and have different physical and chemical properties from normal battlefield targets and as such will be captured differently by the sensors. If thermal sensors doesn't detect the differences, motion sensors or any of the other sensors included in the fire control systems will. I did not claim that RCWS is perfect, only that it confers several advantages over manual turrets and gunners.
Even your test video showed clearly it isnt Quick enough for real combat scenario, nobody goes into battle to cherry pick target the way the video showed, so why should Nigeria get it & to what end? Nigeria could invest in target acquisition systems for their MRAPS anything more is a bloody waste of resources. I used CIWS to give you an example how RCWS is expected to perform in terms of target acquisition, response & rate of fire, you didnt seem to understand that part, read to think. here is a video of a CIWS (a sea based RCWS) then juxtapose with that joke video of yours.
Dont come back to blab you didnt say it is perfect, if you know that much why recommend it? Until Land based RCWS are perfected like CIWS, nobody should be talking about it.
RCWS on land systems are relatively new concepts and most armies are just fielding it as such it will be very difficult to find the type of videos you are asking for. But theoretically, it is a fact that RCWS are designed for precision and efficiency. I will search YouTube for the video, if I find, I will post and if I don't, the absence of such video evidence does not prove or disprove anything other than the fact that it hasn't been recorded in battle.
Mind you, the navy and airforce has been operating forms of RCWS for years and there are several videos of it's effectiveness.
RCWS in action on land is not as accurate as you think, the major problem being sensor obfuscation by terrain, buildings & trees, the sensor Algorithm needs to be fast to interprete these obstacles real quick. In practice, the gunner still makes these decisions reducing response time. The opposite is the case in water & air.
This challenge is the reason there is no Land based CIWS till date, so many are at the development stage, none has scaled through. In summary, all land based RCWS dont operate on "Auto" mode to give that accuracy you desire.
How stressful it is to make a post and in quick succession use multiple accounts and bots to validate your poor soul... JJphilips stop disguising. This thing called truth has a way of rattling the guilty.
Your IQ is too low to remember my Moniker, im truly impressed, which medication are you on??
A disturbed Ethiopia makes the government weak, a weak government will make a perfect ground for terrorism to thrive. It's now a matter of if they want to.
Ethiopian troops look poor trained and disciplined. I hope miraculously, Ethiopia would rise against this situation. A disintegrated Ethiopia, is against the interest of Nigeria and Africa at large.
A disturbed Ethiopia wont pose significant threat for Nigeria, Tigray guys are not terrorists but anti government rebels unlike Libya that was a beehive of Alqaeda, Daesh & other Takfiri fighters. Mali's Anzawad insurgency mirrowed Libya's situation more.
If the Tigray guys succeed (very unlikely) they will form a government that will keep Ethiopia stable, already, US has warned they shouldn't invade Addis Ababa but remain within their disputed territory, Abiy Ahmed is already talking to Turkey & other coalition partners, if fruitful, will replay Russia's assistance to Assad as FSA inched closer to Damascus.
The refugee crisis will overwhelm Eritrea, Djibouti and perhaps Kenya, they surely not coming west, perhaps south or accross the Gulf of Aden. Nigeria needs not worry about that.
SamuelAnyawu: The Military Should Kick of its massive operation. Borno state is shaking currently in all field locations.
Lemme don’t say much.
Quite an irony you are in the epicenter of the conflict yet you don't think the information that can save your arse can as well come from you?? Better don't say anything at all, that's your smartest bet. Goodluck!!
No where in my comment did I insult you. Hence won't take that shit from an ASS & an IMP like you.
@ Normal Humans
Contractor financing on AKK men's contractor pays for the gas pipeline, operates & charges for gas piped through it & ownership revers after 25 - 35 years.
Federal Government of Nigeria owns a % of NLNG. Complete the picture as you may.
If you don't know that a contractor funding your project for you to pay later and assume ownership is borrowing from your contractor, after borrowing the seed funding from China, despite how many times Ive explained it, yet you still don't understand it, bros you are dumb & that's putting it mildly. How can you have difficulty in understanding something that simple?
Show this link to someone in your community with better education, gosh!!
The most sickening part is that a grown arse man displays imbecility in public then picks offense once you point it out to him. Am I supposed to give you a medal for having serious comprehension problems??
AKK project worth $2.8b was borrowed, Nigeria presently lacks the capacity to execute a project worth $10b in a fiscal year, that's a litmust test for a poor country & World bank's IDA program proves me right.
If you are not providing a $10b project Nigeria funded in a fiscal year or a global standard where Nigeria is classified as wealthy, then STFU.
You can't even identify a clear case of borrowing but you want to teach me the ownership of NLNG, mtchew!!
DubaiLandLord1: ISIS Releases Video Of 12-year-old Terrorist Executing Two Nigerian Soldiers
In the 17-minute long video, the soldiers were shot dead by the insurgent with AK-47.
The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), also known as Daesh (Arabic) has released a video showing a 12-year-old member of ISWAP (Islamic State's West Africa Province), the breakaway Boko Haram faction executing two Nigerian soldiers.
In the 17-minute long video, the soldiers were shot dead by the insurgent with his AK-47.
The video which was called "Makers of Epic Battles" also covered other attacks from ISWAP's spring campaign in Borno and Yobe states in 2021.
Analysing the footage, Tomasz Rolbiecki, a researcher on Islamic State’s attacks worldwide described the execution as “awful.”
“There are no words to describe how awful it is,” Rolbiecki posted on Twitter.
He continued, “In general, the video is mainly covering the attacks from ISWAP's spring campaign in northern Borno and Yobe, although there are also clips from southeastern and southwestern parts of Borno state.
“Most of the footage had been published in photo reports long before this video was released. Daesh has been doing it for years. However, there is also some new material.
“ISWAP confirms the militants are using an APC (seems like a Mowag Piranha variant) for the first time in a long time, if not ever. News of them using APCs and MRAPs have been circulating for a while now, but we have not seen a confirmation until now.
“The attack on Gajiram is next. It is difficult to say which one is it since there were several in the last year, and the footage was not released previously in any form.
“Then ISWAP shows an IED attack which must have happened in Mallam Fatori (I do not have the exact date). A video shot by one of the soldiers attacked by that IED is used by the militants to show the aftermath. That is a technique sometimes used by Daesh.
“After that, a clip from Geidam, in Yobe State, is shown. This was the attack from 23 April, in which ISWAP briefly established control over the town. We have seen most of that footage previously as well.”
Protecting our soldiers is as good as protecting Iswap. If Iswap rides in the Mowag then what will happen when they lay hands on an IFV or AFV? Is that what the top brass are thinking?
Correction: Algeria defined its threats more broadly than what you've offered. They defined their threats logically in terms of both time and space and then set out to rebuild and equip their military accordingly.
1) GIA and AIS (AQIM, GSPC and others were later splinters from these two) were defined as immediate internal threats to be obliterated;
2) Morocco was defined as a mid-term external threat that had to be deterred in the short term and in the long term, defeated in combat should it come to that;
3) France and NATO in general (especially after what transpired in Libya) were defined as long term external threats which could not be defeated but could be deterred by structuring the Algerian military such that war would entail such a heavy price as to be unpalatable.
Personal opinion: I actually rank the Algerians above the Egyptians because Cairo's economy is so poor that without its sugar daddies in the Gulf, it would not be able to sustain total war on its own.
I merely discussed what Algeria did, I didn't explain why, the comparison between Algeria & Nigeria should strictly focus on their counter insurgency ops, reason I mentioned AQIM alone. The other Objectives are of no concern to Nigeria.
In terms of Casualties, number of vehicles involved, nope Abagana haven't been repeated. In terms of pattern of movement and attack. Yes, it have been repeated alot. Jam packing alot of military vehicles in a straight line moving through enemy territory on a narrow road, as if you're going for a field exercise. There alot of ambushes that we lost alot of troops in a single occasion. The Nigerian Army is either not learning or adapting extremely slow.
Abagana didn't happen because Murtala Mohammed jampacked his convoy, every sound historian knows there were two tactical errors that led to Abagana. If your history is sound, you would figure it out!! Those two tactical errors must be in place before you reference Abagana. Like I said, Abagana has not repeated because those tactical errors haven't repeated in a mission with an Abagana outcome.
Almost every year, we hear about billions of dollars missing either in the NNPC or CBN. Nigeria isn't poor, neither is it extremely rich for now. What we make from crude oil alone yearly is alot. We don't even do quality auditing, truth is, Nigeria doesn't even know how much it makes, cos peeps steals much of it. We saw how auditing turned out in the NDDC. How the MD was fainting while questioned. Mind you, that 1 billion dollars, if i inject it continously into the education or health care sector for 2 straight years, those sectors will be upgraded by atleast 100 %.
True. Algeria has less security threats.
I understand, we've never done that. How do you expect a highly mismanaged and corrupt country to do that? I know we've increased spending on capital expenditure under this administration,but we still have same root issues. Nigeria problem is not money, it is mismanagement and corruption. That's my point.
True, almost all major projects funding comes from loans,we have avenues and ways to generate money in Nigeria. If the mismanagement, misplaced priorities and corruption continues, we'll keep claiming we don't have money while having peeps who are creating a fortune for themselves from the country's wealth. Nigeria is a mismanaged country, not a poor one.
In that case you are smarter than World bank that placed Nigeria on IDA, ask yourself why you are on that list first before selling your opinion albeit baseless.
You Africans should first learn how to think before stringing facts together. If you can't think, your fact is useless.
Now if you want to think, ask yourself what makes a country wealthy? grab that list then juxtappse it with Nigeria, I just told you Nigeria cannot afford a $10b Capital expenditure in a pop, you are typing a sermon to tell me what you think instead of getting me that $10b annual expenditure.
avidleo: Warri Itakpe not Borrowed AKK is contractor financed Bonny - Bodo was intially 50-50 (FGN/NLNG) but is now 100% NLNG
When your contractor is financing your project, are you not borrowing from the contractor?
When you split capital investment with NLNG, are you funding it 100% isnt that assisted expenditure? Don't you know NLNG will later deduct that N60b from Nigeria's annual profits?? You think its charity? Isn't that a loan?
Reading isn't difficult!!
If you are smart, you should give me a list of $10b expenditure Nigeria financed in a fiscal year, then we hope its dedicated to the military.
