AfriqueDuZuid:
Do you know proxy wars?

Kenya has actually engaged in proxy wars with Ethiopia in Somalias semi autonomous region of jubaland.

rvp2018:
You bet they have Military Intelligence. This brute force - used to simply beating up civilians. This is why they have 360,000 foot soldiers. The Kenya Military Intelligence would have done enough reconnaissance way before - and would simply make the job easy - for the airforce to take them out - with foot soldiers really coming to sweep up. Enough KDF spies would be part of BH - and they would provide precise intelligence - like happened in Somalia.

All this come with world-class training, discipline, professionalism and of course resources - in a lean force.

BH cannot last 3 months if KDF were to be deployed.

Actually alshabaab have been executing some of it's members accusing them of spying for Kenya .They no longer trust Kenyan fighters who are generally viewed as spies .

obaaderemi:
Terrorism is different from conventional warfare, bro.
There's always a lot of politics involved in terrorism.

The funny thing is that the Boko boys train and operate inside Nigerian territory ....where is your fucking military intelligence? where do Boko boys get the funding from? what are their supply routes? who are their recruiters? who are their sympathizers?.
intelligence precedes any military operation.

obaaderemi:
Dead equipment indeed. When it comes to the military in Africa, just drop it. Kenya is nowhere.

Just 2 days ago, Nigeria took delivery of 6 Super Tucanos. Does Kenya have such? Even with al-Shabaab kicking your azzez in Somalia. Not to talk of navy and land forces. You don't come close. Drop it, Son.

Maybe Nigeria needs to invest more in soft power, proper communication structure, and intelligence. How comes your military is usually having a hard time operating in its own territory? What will happen if your supply chain is overstretched?

Stargate254:
Do you know what the standoff was about?

The Somali central government wanted to expel Kenyan forces from Kismayo and replace them with Ethiopians to counter the Kenyan influence. Apparently, Kenyan forces have a huge influence in Kismayo politics since 2012. https://www.theeastafrican.co.ke/tea/news/east-africa/kenya-congratulates-madobe-for-winning-jubbaland-poll-1425600

Al Shabaab got no problem shooting and blowing up there capital annually though. You could argue they control the Kenyan underground & Mombasa streets.

This kid does not know what drifting is .....
I'm laughing as hell ..

It takes experience and knowledge of the physics of cars to negotiate sharp turns which require knowing how to drift the car....

Every race car is all about the torque and horsepower power...

They dont remove exhaust... dumb kid

Only a $fool who doesn't know much about cars will even dare to compare WRX of subaru or Mits Lancer to even and Audi RS4 ...

RS4 is a car for drag and drift racing.... its ducking sporty ....

When we are talking cars, never mention a subaru or Mits

You are wrong..it all depends on the classification of the racing event as set by FIA.

Just30:
Go talk long distance marathon with your fellow kenyans.... when it comes to sport, your country is insignificant....

Wait when we are talking about marathon, then you can speak.

Motor sport is classified into various categories where each category has it's own set of rules and car specifations as indicated by FIA.
Rallying is more popular In Kenya and there are specific cars used for rallying.
Other types of motor sports events include;
formula racing.
Sports car racing.
Stock car racing.
Drag racing.
Rallying.
Off-road racing.
Touring car racing.
Production car racing. Etc
However there are those events that are recognized by FIA .I don't know if whatever you have in Ghana is recognized by any international body.
