It's like saying that, "Policemen of the Lagos State Police Command arrested a pick pocket" and someone then says that the statement means that all the policemen in Lagos arrested the pick pocket. grin

Fxwarrior:
Good point, but I don't think less than 50 soldiers make a battalion.

It wasn't the entire battalion that carried out the operation. They simply named the unit that the soldiers came from.

I gave an example above. The Nigerian Army stated that troops of 81 Division, Nigerian Army, arrested 5 oil thieves in Ogun State.

A division is made up of more than 10,000 troops. The story did not mean that 10,000 troops arrested 5 oil thieves. They simply identified the unit that the soldiers came from.

81 Div has its headquarters in Lagos and covers Lagos and Ogun states.

Oga...a division is larger than a battalion! The story said "battalion" and from the photos there, they are close to 200 if not more! QED!

I gave you an example to show that all they did was identify the unit, but you are trying to run away from the example grin

.

It is common that the unit that carried out a military operation is identified so that they can receive the apropriate reward. In this case, the operation was carried out by troops of 145 Battalion. That obviously does not mean that it was carried out by the entire battalion, neither does it mean that it was carried out by 145 soldiers.

If you still don't understand this, then nobody can help you. Nobody can wake a man who is pretending to be asleep.

That's my last attempt to help you

No where in the story did they state the number of troops (I now feel that you know this, but you are just arguing for the sake of arguing). All they did was to identify the unit that carried out the operation.

This revelation by you now heightens the shame because instead if the 145 soldiers posited erroneously by ikechu12, we are seeing that a battalion consists of even more soldiers of up to 300-800 all killing a meager 5 terrorists. I am not undermining their efforts but this is like celebrating mediocrity.

Soldiers from the battalion engaged the terrorists. It wasn't the entire battalion.

It's like saying that soldiers of 81 Division arrested thieves in Lagos. It doesn't mean that the entire division arrested the thieves. (Do you know how large a division is?)

It took a 145 boys to kill 5 people and the morons are happy. Only in Niggeria. Only Niggeria. Constantly proving they are the weakest military on Earth.

jayson87:
Don't mind them.. it takes only 5 boko haram members to wipe off 145 soldiers. Can't you see the irony

145 Battalion refers to the name of the unit, not the number of troops.

E.g. There's 1 Division, Nigerian Army (with headquarters in Kaduna). It doesn't mean there's only one soldier in the division.

Someone on the other thread claimed that life has always been difficult for Babayo Gamawa.

The person said that Gamawa was in the PDP, but his family, his village and his local government have always been filled with Buhari supporters.

The person said that Gamawa voted for Buhari in 2011, even though he was a PDP deputy governor.

Politics › Babayo Gamawa Decamps To APC From PDP by naptu2(op): 10:50pm On Jan 08, 2019

It was announced yesterday that the PDP had suspended its deputy national chairman (north), Senator Babayo Gamawa, for anti-party activities.

See previous thread here https://www.nairaland.com/4946468/pdp-suspends-gamawa-babayo-garba

Well, the senator, who is also a member of Atiku Abubakar's campaign council, has now decamped to the APC less than 24 hours later.

I think Francisca Ordega came second. She's on stage with what looks like the silver ball.

It seems like Asisat Oshoala is not even in the hall.

Women's team of the year was just a compensation for Nigeria. It wasn't a good one for us.

Salah wins it again!

I think we won it because we won the Nations Cup.
