It's my arrogance I like it, history has shown my arrogance is based on good foundation of intelligence and smarts.
And because on 2 occasions he has used 2 different accounts to insult and attack me personally, and I found him out at his first attempt, this second time was just a confirmation, which is an insult because even someone in primary school, shouldn't fall for such gimmicks.
Is that all?

Dude, this is important and RELEVANT! I read the excellent Hundeyin expose and it's OBVIOUS that political Islam birthed this F'ERY over generations. They've planned, strategised and funded for years! As a result we are now WHERE we're at. Fyi, in Kenya Somali imams openly challenge young xalimo to have at LEAST 3 kids by 21. People have told me they will soon outnumber Kikuyus!
Guys in their 40s have 4 wives and 20 kids. This ISN'T BS- I personally know 3 such Somalis. I never made much of this til a couple of yrs ago reading here and observations in Kenya and regionally.
You want us to continue posting Hiluxes, Tavors and those "CION OPS" (sic) pix? Srsly!?
Actually, thats what this thread is meant for, you can create your Somalia Islam thread elsewhere.

Or that fight for scarce resources will spill over to the rest of the country and you have chaos on your hands and then they have the numbers.
Allowing a tumor to grow won't do anyone any good. Issues there need to be fixed or it engulfs the whole country. These aren't foreign citizens. we still occupy same country. things get too hard and they will move to other areas.
OR the crisis can disrupt supply routes of people & goods.
Its impossible to isolate a part of a country completely without the other parts feeling it.
The spread area makes it more difficult.

Military Coup has no reward in this era, you will hand over the country in less than 6 months, intl pressure sounds familiar right?
Except a coup sanctioned by the same international powers.

Regarding the problem of outranging the enemies and effectively taking out enemy guntrucks outside of the enemies firing range, I would suggest the Army go for the ZSU-23 family of guns, majority of those currently operating the ZSU-23-4 shilka will be looking to retire them in the not too distant future, the Nigerian Army can offer to buy them in large quantities for base defense at lower cost then order for the ZSU-23-2 and fix on MRAPs and APCs, this will temporarily serve the role of IFVs until the Army is able to purchase better platforms (probably BMPT Terminator). The 23mm ammo of the ZSU will shred the terrorists guntrucks at 2km while the terrorists will not be able to engage until they are within 1500m. The terrorists used to mount the ZSU-23-2 on their guntrucks but it seems they have ran out of stock or at least have very few quantities left, majority of their guntrucks are now armed with HMGs and GPMGs.
Reason I suggested using the shilka for base defense only is because it is very slow and will be easy for the enemy to capture in a situation where the unit needs to manouvre fast.
Bingo!!

I know some people will disagree with me on this, but if we are to have a so called country of law and order, these things shouldn't be happening.
These suspected bandits were captured alive by our soldiers and vigilantes, yet they were executed in broad day light and then set on fire.
Is this what some will call a civilized country? Everyone involved in these murders should be charged. It shouldn't be up to security forces to carry out executions of unarmed suspect, not even terrorists, this is not the way, it's another extension of barbaric acts that dotted that country.
Let these people have their day in court, throw them in prison etc, but that's for the courts to decide. Regardless of the crimes they've been accused of, there are rules in place for these, seems no one bothers to follow them, then burning their corpses? From security personnel? That's highly unprofessional, we can do better.
This job isn't easy, that's why it's not for everyone, but this, it's sad.
Guess another 100yrs we will get our shi!t together.
You are absolutely right, sadly you are not seeing the big picture, Africans dont think the way you do, Africans here mean (law enforcement & criminals), you strongly believe Bandits deserve a day in court, I believe same too but reality is different, those that designed law & order never envisaged that a criminal could walk with just a phone call, they never envisaged a judicial system & prosecutor could be in bed, it doesn't happen anywhere in the world, therefore, you can not juxtapose a near utopia with an Anomie, two different scenarios.

2ndly, the way terrorists are infesting Africa today unlike 30yrs ago is alarming, apart from the fact most African countries lack the capacity to deal with it, they have very little knowledge how they should turn the table around, believe it or not, if something drastic doesn't happen in the nearest future, Africa will become the global terror headquarters. That will pose a significant risk to Africans in Africa & the world at large, in the last 20 yrs, we have learnt that Kinetic & non kinetic approach has not been effective therefore, it's time Deterrence came on board.

I must warn you at this point that deterrence & its corresponding collateral damage is not a friendly approach, its Barbaric it is designed to put the fear of God in the enemy, to re-think his actions keeping consequence in mind.
Like President Roosevelt said after Pearl Harbor attacks, "America & her allies have become naked in the Pacific, the Actions of the Japanese requires no friendly engagement but deterrence, they said Japan is untouchable, tell that to the Marines who will strike the heart of Tokyo"
Later on the US responded by taking over 300,000 lives in one nuclear pop, a strategy that has dettered Japan for nearly 100yrs. Remember that Japan wasn't at war with the US before the Pearl harbour incident, like it or not, if the designers of law & order, with water tight Judicial system employ Barbaric deterrence when necessary why shouldn't Africans?

In a more recent example, when the Taliban refused to negotiate with Trump's administration, CIA revealed they were emboldened by a sinister Pakistani cross border group named Haqqani rebels, Trump demanded that the MOAB, 2nd most lethal non nuclear untested bomb be dropped on them as a deterrence, Pakistani govt later reported that the fire that ensued took two weeks to be put out after which it became impossible to differentiate humans with sand, by humans we mean the rebels, co-conspirators & collateral damages.

If the United state that epitomises law and order unleash deterrence when necessary, why not Africans? if your answer is yes, then there should be no debate, if "NO"then ask yourself why US didn't arrest emperor Hirohito & try him for Pearl habour instead of the nuclear option, why was Sirajuddin Haqqani not arrested and tried for his support of the Taliban in the spirit of law & order?

A heartwarming News!!!!

TROOPS RESCUE MAJOR CL DATONG

Following the directive of the Chief of Defence Staff and Service Chiefs for 1 Division Nigerian Army in conjunction with the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) and all security agencies to conduct decisive operations to rescue Major CL Datong who was abducted at Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) Permanent Site on 24 August 2021 and find the perpetrators dead or alive, the Division in conjunction with the Air Task Force, Department of State Services and other security agencies, immediately swung into action by conducting operations in the Afaka general area to find and rescue the officer. The operations were being conducted based on several leads received from various sources regarding the abductors and likely locations the officer was being held.

The operations which have been sustained since the abduction of the officer proved quite successful and led to the destruction of several identified bandits’ camps in the Afaka- Birnin Gwari general area and neutralization of scores of bandits particularly, in the late hours of today, 17 September, 2021, the troops arrived at a camp suspected to be the location where Maj CL Datong was being held. At the camp, the troops exchanged fire with the bandits for overwhelmed them superior fire. In the process, the gallant troops were able to rescue the abducted officer. However, the officer sustained a minor injury but has been treated in a medical facility and handed over to NDA for further action.

The Division wishes to commend the efforts of the NAF, DSS , Nigerian Police and patriotic Nigerians for their invaluable support which contributed to the success of this operation. Our operations will continue until we capture or neutralize the assailants that killed two (2) officers in the NDA on 24 August 2021.

Sincerely, I don't know the Nigeria you are referring to bros.

There is refinery in Porthacourt and there is a refinery in Delta. We also a new one coming up in Akwa Ibom and Lagos state. Only Kaduna state have refinery without crude oil.

Quick Note:
1)Kaduna refinery is serving the entire northern Nigeria market
2) if you don't build pipelines to carry crude you will still building pipelines to carry different refined product to the market where the product is need.
3) refinery in Lagos was built with that capacity to serve the entire West African market.
4) refinery in Akwa Ibom will serve mostly Central Africa and it's also privately owned.

Except you are saying you have more sense than the individual building those refineries.
Kaduna refinery was originally designed to refine light crude from Niger delta in part not wholly, it was also designed in part to refine heavy crude sourced from Saudi Arabia & Venezuela. apart from serving the northern region, it is a strategic asset should there be feedstock issues from the Niger delta.

You're the ignorant person here, and arrogant at your ignorance. Going by your logic one can build groundnut pyramids in Akwa Ibom and spend millions transporting same product from Kano to A.Ibom on bad roads to maintain the pyramids as against building those pyramids in Kano where it's easier to plan for the logistics. You people don't ask questions why private investors don't operate that way only the government.
You're a "Rice producer" indeed.
Ichabod
You are the ignorant person on this India subject, there is a huge difference between "Proven reserves" & "production output". read about them before your next response
India produces around 1m bbls daily while consuming over 4m bbls daily, there is a huge 3m bbls shortfall yet they own the biggest refinery in the world, that is the point, going by your Kogi logic, India would have bothered about their production deficit instead of building the Jamnagar.

It's only in Nigeria you will build an Oil refinery thousands of Kms away from where the crude is drilled and now spend billions to build/maintain pipes to connect the refinery as against building that facility where it will be easier & cost effective to access the crude. All in the name of federal character or sentiments purely to appease or massage the ego of whoever is in charge, and we're wondering why things don't seem to work here.
Which refinery do you refer to? You are beginning to sound like a teenager with your ignorance

Another thing vexing me about the military is their defensive posture. They are the reason why they are overstretched. Where they are supposed to launch an offensive against the enemy for a few weeks and neutralize all threats and return to their base, they prefer to set up these stupid camps. The camps and FOBs while reasonable in the northeast because of the territorial ambition of the terrorists isn't reasonable in the northwest because those ones just want to attack and leave. Even for those in the northeast, it will end up being disastrous if they are not supported by assault teams that will be constantly be on offensive.
Don't criticize what you dont understand, FOB's are Quick response forces, you can easily call for reinforcement, intervention strike, re-supply or rescue from say 20 miles than you would from 200 miles, landmass is huge, time is of the essence, you need to get there as fast as you can,

So what was the rationale for taking a Naval base to his home state that is the crux of my query, Buratai took a university to his village despite the insecurity in Borno, AVM Sadique built a NAF hospital in his home state, Ihejirika did something similar, now the current CNS despite the fact that their is a similar training base in Kaduna by the same service, tomorrow Amao and current COAS may toe same path & in your mind we shouldn't ask about the reason behind those choices whether it is strategic or purely emotional. Tomorrow someone will wake up and decide to build a military facility in Niger republic & we all he expected not to ask for explanations; even the US and the UK that have the best navies in the world have their Naval bases in their Continental shelves. Ethiopia used to have a navy but had to shut down that arm of service when Eritrea broke out of the country.

Why does it matter where the base is located? that is the only concern of Bigots, you can't hide from your shadows.
Does the Navy require a Desert warfare training experience, Yes or NO, if yes, why does it matter its location? will it cost more in Kano & less in Rivers state? why is the location important to you, is my question, joblessness?

If we want to be honest to ourselves must service Chiefs sef carry military facilities to their villages? It's already becoming a trend amongst our Military chiefs. As for the naval base issue I saw an advert on Channelstv sponsored by the Navy on the CNS annual conference, they clearly said highlights of the conference will be inauguration of a "Naval Base" by the state governor (Ganduje).... Whether na desert warfare kini it wasn't expressesly stated. If you create an atmosphere of half information, speculations and rumour mongering will blossom. That's by the way must we concentrate all our military installations in just one part of the country? The last time I checked there is a naval training center in Kaduna aside the numerous Military and paramilitary training Institutions domiciled in that part/region of the country. You sef check am na, it's all these things we think don't matter that stir up the public, we should not decieve ourselves Nigeria is made up of many nations we need to weigh our actions/inactions at every step in other not to stir the hornet nest.
You are equally a victim of the nonsense you are defending, despite your years here, are you saying you don't know Nigerian Navy has ground units?
What is wrong in training a ground unit in Kano when all the Amphibious units are littered down south?

why should it matter if its in South or north?

We've had really bad NSA in this country. They should consider putting a foreign expatriate in that position for some time, not because we don't have capable and patriotic people that are eligible but because our politicians tend to listen more to foreigners.
Won't be a bad idea to use Eeben Barlow or Sadique Abubakar as NSA for now.

AIICO Insurance is selling a product called salary for life.

With N120 million you will earn N1 million per month for life, with N12 million you will earn 100k per month for life.

The family of the man who invested N120 million will get N60 million when he dies, while the family of the man who invested N12 million will get N60 million when he dies.


Whereas the same fund invested in bonds at 13% with coupon pays spread over the 12 months, will give a monthly payments of N1.3 Million or 130k.

The family will still get 100% of the fund at the demise of the person.


That was how the person marketing the product left and was disappointed, after I gave her a superior argument

There is a reason the Taliban is helping control masses of people rushing that same airport, this was in US news just yesterday, so you are saying they all have papers or documentation but Taliban is turning them back?

This is common misconception, the mission in Afghanistan was never about nation building. This has been said clearly by all administrations from Bush-Obama-Trump and this is the reason why any efforts to build democratic structures were done so half-heartily.
Dont waste your time with kids they heard Afghanistan last week for the first time in their lives. The same urchins will be first to call you dumb while oozing pathetic ignorance.
The first action in Afghanistan after the Mujahedeen victory over Russia was under Clinton's administration, US went there to bomb the living hell out of Al-Qaida in retaliation for their embassy bombing in Kenya & Tanzania, then came Bush, first action in Afghanistan was the battle of Torah Borah in retaliation for 9/11, since 1997, US foreign policy in Afghanistan has always been counter terrorism, most of them social media commentators today at the time couldn't afford electricity let alone follow the war, from a digital TV.

Don't try to be smart by half.

And that is the reason why... You think they are running and hanging on top of a moving plane because they love the Taliban? They are scared and desperate, because blood thirsty murderers are about to take control of their country, that's why they don't want to live under the taliban, it won't bring peace, it will bring oppression, and fighting is the only way out.
A woman was supposedly killed because she couldn't cook well enough, imagine that, and this is just the beginning.
Anyways, all good, good luck to them
That is why Nigerians are not mentally fit to use the social media because there is always a r@tarded explanation to a simple incident.

If you looked carefully at those in that Kabul airport, you would've noticed they had papers, what do you think that paper is?

The stowaway teenager that fell off the sky was identified by the same paper that flew with him, did you bother to find out what that paper signified?

US months ago have been processing documentations for those that worked with them in different capacities, trainers, minders, interpreters, teachers, care givers, cleaners, HUMINT, Embassy employees etc.
These Afghans over the last 20yrs have a huge number, Talibans has a Fatwa on their heads since 2010, immediately US announced their withdrawal, those people ensured the US evacuate them, so those Afghans at the airport are those whose fate are already sealed not your usual Afghan people on the street.


When they heard Taliban had taken over Kabul, they panicked & disrupted a once orderly evacuation process.
Don't think the average Afghan from Kandahar is looking for a stowaway opportunity in Kabul, that is not happening.
