Henry240:Just Joking oh.. so something like this happened and these are all the pictures they could snap? ![]() they didnt go down south to call in Professional photographers who have earned "years of Combat experience" what a damn shame. i know most of you do not really appreciate the hardwork that go into snapping some of the great SANDF photos you see. you ve gotta be very careful when you are assigned to snap SANDF soldiers on live fire exercises so some dumb SANDF soldier would not mistakenly shoot your stupid photographer balls off" ![]() now what i want you guys to do is to pretend this post does not exist. you didnt see it and i didnt write it. ![]() |
ssaengine:there are very big differences between a country engaging life targets with its aircrafts and the one shooting dummy targets for photography sessions, there are big differences between a pilot that have earned series of real kill strips and the one whose greatest achievement was to have been able to turn the craft upside down for a photography session, there are big differences between a pilot whose main worry is on strategizing maneuvers to carry out successful ground support sorties and the one whose main problem is on how to balance a rotor craft on a mountain ledge for photography shots. We are fighting a war for which we are very well and suitably equipped and we have recorded some of the most unprecedented text book victories that the "unconventional" war against international terrorism would ever see. Do not pray to learn the lessons that we have learnt, but when you pray, pray that you would one day gain the chance to learn from the experience of the men that have seen the true flames of war. |
ssaengine:lOl, Are you sure your SAAF would be able to roll out any of its Jets for the protection of South African Lives?

Hoshea:a tanzanian speaking Nigerian pidgin. ![]() |
jakeporeshenko:wow. thats nice. you did that? |
scully95:Turkey should seriously begin to reconsider her NATO membership if it has come to the point where she have to buy Air Defence systems from the very nation that NATO was created to fight against. NATO should be very worried when things like this happen |
jakeporeshenko:let's try sending messages to mynd44 to see if he can restore the account. Losing an account with all that information is just too bad. |
jakeporeshenko:no i dont think so. whenver the system calls a user "Noname" it means the party is over for that user. if you go back and check you will see that the Henry120 user that created this thread was renamed to "Noname". the owner of the strongest military in africa thread was also renamed to "noname"(probably for creating one of the most stupid thread ever) Pics 1. how your user look like when you have been deleted officially. (this guy was deleted for his believe in Aliens and a very rare type of Aliens which he call Maza Maza. poor dude got deleted)

NairaMinted:who dare call my name while i am trying to achieve inner peace in my top nuclear super secret bunker? how dare you disturb the sleep of the lion that have decided to ply a peaceful path. The Great Zohariel i will heed your call because we have fought so many battles together and fighting by your side is always so great an honor. who is that son of a pedophile whose stupidity have caused you to awake some of the greatest of all the cyber Generals ever known? |
and this is a topic for our political section? who posted this thing? |
frumentius:he is holding a dane gun. probably one of the local hunters or a member of the CJTF. |
Henry240:Badeh, I kept saying those guys were the most unpatriotic elements that Nigeria could cook up but nobody believed me until we started seeing the evidence. I hope he rots in Jail for every life lost under his watch. when you see them salute the Flag one would wonder if they are truly swearing allegiance to the Flags of our Fathers or if they are just making a mockery of the whole thing. and he would have supervised these men's death

bejeiodus:lol, the AK is the most effective rifle ever made |

The calls for a renewed interest in agriculture is not a new thing to Nigerians, the federal government, state government and public figures have made this call and have sometimes described it as the only way out of the single oil economy that we find our nation in today. The position of the new government of Edo State is no different from that of the government at the federal level as both seem to be calling for a renewed interest in agriculture amongst the people. The people of Edo State have practised farming for centuries before now and in most cases, Edo people have relied on old and outdated farming techniques to produce food for themselves and to make very little quantity available for sale. This is the reason why the practise of farming in Edo State is on a serious decline. Accept it or not, as you read this, fewer lands are being cultivated, fewer animals are being reared and fewer people are undertaking farming as a fulltime job every day in Edo State. Most of the old farmers who were, as it seems. The “Masters” of the old farming practise are now well retired and out of service. These veterans of agriculture in Edo State now rely on aids provided by their children who may be struggling with one white collar job or the other in the city or outside the country. The questions now are; why are our youths running away from the agricultural legacy laid down by their parents? “the answers are several, but each answers all narrow down to the fact that, farming is no longer an attractive, lucrative or competitive alternative to the white collar jobs which are scarcely available in our cities today. Farming have fallen from the once exalted position which it enjoyed to a position of neglect and pariah, and this is no fault of the generations of today, the fact that pasts generations kept relying on old, outdated and unsustainable farming practise are enough reasons for the present generation who are now well familiar with the “mechanics and automotive” ease of getting things done, to isolate themselves from the conservative and backward culture of manual farm labour and the various inefficient local farming methods practised by our predecessors . How then can we bring about a renewed interest in agriculture amongst our younger generations to ensure that our farms do not go into extinction in Edo State? These are my recommendations for the Edo State Government: 1. Begin to facilitate the adoption of modern farming techniques by providing these equipments and machineries and training the farmers on how to operate them. This could be achieved through a Public Private Partnership between the State Government and interested investors in the banking sector. Agricultural equipment renting centres can then be made available in major farming communities in Edo State. And the Government may also need to partner with Agricultural Equipments and Farm Machines providers, to establish maintenance facilities and to train and transfer this knowledge to our youths. 2. Engagement in wide reaching sensitization campaigns, which would be aimed at changing the mindsets of our youths about farming. This could be achieved through the use of the main stream medias, the social media, and the organization of “catch them young” campaigns in our secondary schools and higher institutions. The campaigns should be able to bring to the awareness of our youths the facts that, agriculture is a lucrative and prestigious undertaking when done using the available modern farming techniques and the various state of the art innovations in agriculture. 3. Enact agriculture friendly policies which would encourage even the laziest person to want to go into farming. Examples of such policies are: creation of an agricultural scholarship scheme for youths who are already engaged in farming but are interested in improving their knowledge by learning new farming practices abroad, such policies could also include the provision of financial grants or interventions for farmers who are in urgent need of such assistance to improve on their already established farms. In terms of policies there are so many things the government can do to attract our youths to go back into agriculture. 4. Creation of a low interest loan scheme for farmers with unique and bankable prospects. The reason why most farmers in Edo State do not engage in large scale farming is because in most cases they cannot afford a bigger farm, so providing such persons with a low interest loan to expand their already established farms or to undertake a new farm project. This would go a long way to encourage others . the loan could also be in the form of the provision of technical assistance and the service of farm machines during the planting season to be paid for after harvest. 5. Attract customers and investors for our farm products, Edo State Government can achieve this through the facilitating bilateral trade agreements on the export of farm produce with other countries. That way any farmer in Edo State can become a exporter of farm produce through these agreements, Government could also organize media campaign aimed at attracting both local and foreign investors to the availability of high quality raw materials from farms in Edo State. 6. Create processing mills, silos and factories. To help reduce the stress that farmers often go through in processing their products locally, Government can sensitize farmers on modern processing techniques and provide state of the art processing and storage facilities that would ensure that no farmer from our farming communities would have any reason to complain of his/her products getting spoilt or expired due to the ineffective local processing and storage techniques. Our youths are naturally innovative and creative and not having them in the agricultural scene for all this times have been a big loss for agricultural development in Edo state. If our youths can be brought onboard the agricultural train in Edo State then we would see a lot of improvements and ground breaking achievements being achieved within a short period of time.

Greenbuoy:ex vice pressident. he can request for such details anytime. he can also request for the use of other facilities that should normally be available to a serving VP |
ActivateKruger:that argument ended long before we saw any pictures of the ATV from NA. you would understand that our troops were running into ambushes almost on a daily basis as at that time and anybody would want to call for a vehicle with more Armour of which he suggested the one of the Oshkosh 4x4

Odunayaw:but if you carry them commot for that area you fit nor like the camo again. They are in the right place for the camo to shine |
Vikkie14:I am sorry if I made you feel less of yourself bro. I just hate it when two people are not allowed to sort themselves out in an intellectual debate, that's the way we learn. In the long run we may have known what doctrinal changes in the USAF led to the decommisoning of jets in the same class as the SU34, we may have enjoyed the opinion of two people on one particular topic and then make our own analysis and be better served. My apologies for the past, I enjoyed my debate with you and I must tell you that from that experience I don't think you should call yourself a novice. I feel you friend, I understand how you must have felt and I apologise. Nobody is superior, nobody knows too much that is why we must give ourselves the chance to learn from each other. |
Tinfoil:lol since when did you start looking out for him, last I checked you were looking for his address to go rough him up |
Henry240:I guess all these are supply convoys. I am not seeing any armed escort with them. |
Vikkie14:nobody asked you to pick sides, when you have little clue about what they are talking about. if you too get knowledge on the issue then help them understand better instead of throwing us into another South Africa vs Nigeria debate that wont help the rest of us in the thread. if them ask you wetin dem dey talk about now you go dey bite finger. |
Adminisher:I don't think it is not thick enough.please somebody should please repost the unsprayed panel of that Algerian licence built MRAP for him to see. |
Henry240:was it the DHQ that specified the SPEC for the ARA or was it just built to suit a vague role. If it wasn't the ARMY or DHQ then we should buy very little units of it initially and through experience with these test units draw out specs and upgrades necessary for a better tougher High Mobility multipurpose armoured vehicle That would be the standard for our armed forces like the High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV) of the USA. it takes time to come up with a standard platform. You will need to run trials upon trials and I suggest we still suffer the ARA to go through that rigorous test before we begin to see it as a standard platform that would be seen as the flag bearing armoured vehicle of our armed forces |
Henry240:ordering 1000 unit of the first production variant of ARA is not too wise cus this first version would reveal lapses and upgrades that are needed in future variant which would then be more effective. 500 is a go. |
Congrats Gentlemen. |
Oga Frumentius. One of our resident South African Contributor from 2015. Believed to be in service in the SADF and is suspected to have served in the United Nations peace efforts in the restive Central African Republic( as some of his pictures may have suggested). He constantly share his opinions on issues raised here and sometimes go into very long debates with Oga Henry. His debate with Oga Henry over the use of open Rapid Deployment Vehicles like the Hornet and the RAV FAV lasted for almost a year if not more than a year. after months and months of debates they later conceded to each other and gave our thread back to us.
