agaugust: You Southies have said Beegeagle is not a source to be used here on nairaland because it is a blog. so how do you post dozens of comments from beegeagle here for the past 3 days?
Have you seen Beegeagle comments on Chadian army's 5% contribution in Boko Haram war, posted by this same Augustine?
Have you seen on Beegeagle this same Augustine's analysis of how South African army was defeated in Bangui by Seleka rebels?
Do you want us to copy and paste all that one here too?
First you need to prove 100% beyond doubt that I am the same person on Beegeagle's blog named Augustine.
Prove first with evidence that agaugust = Augustine.
Do facebook search on the name Augustine and see how many thousands of people will appear with that same name.
You proudly told us you were working with beegugugug
You proudly told us you have artical published on the blog
agaugust: Anyway, Captain Valentine Strasser the then head of state for Sierra Leone cancelled the contract he gave to Executive Outcomes company that used South African mercenaries, he stopped paying them with diamonds and dollars when Nigerian military arrived to save Sierra Leone free of charge without demanding any reward.....that is what it takes to lead Africa....sacrifice, not photography of military equipment posted on internet .
Nigeria cannot even lead itself - let alone Africa
And your involvement in Sierra Leone was rife with looting, human rights abuses, arms dealing and mass rape
You left Sierra Leone with egg on your face and a much reduced standing in the international community
agaugust: First, you guys need to know that South African mercenaries are NOT your national army, they are not recognized in this forum because the topic is not about private fighters who work for private companies, we are on a thread for who has the strongest military in Africa, national armies. .
So why do you keep posting American special forces hired by a private company to protect Rhino's on private land?
overhypedsteve: Sir, you ve been doing a good job, keep it up. this bushmen from south africa are now being educated by your authoritative command of a superior intellectual competence.
How do you type with his phallus in your mouth?
Its fairly hilarious that you are praising a troll who was recently exposed for praising the South African military and highlighting its superiority on a different forum
agaugust: South African mercenaries abandoned Sierra Leone about a year after Nigerian troops arrived. Nigerian military fought the war to the end after Southies vanished away. Go read West African war history .
South African mercs defeated RUF in less than 6 months and left when their contracts ended. This is how mercenaries work.
Nigeria was unable to replicate what a few hundred South African mercs did, despite having more men and equipment and staying for 10 years
agaugust: In South African army ordinary warrant officer commands 30,000 troops? You can even hand over your entire army to a sergeant then. SANDF generals are cowards afraid of front line battle, reason why you always lose wars .
No warrant officers command their sections at the front, they are commanded by 1 or 2 star Lt's (platoon) who are commanded by a Captain (Company) who is commanded by a Colonel (Battalion) and so on and so forth.
If the general is at the front... whos job is he doing? How can he command a whole formation if he is commanding the men right infornt of him?
Generals cannot command 30 000 men if they are at the front
agaugust: Nigeria fought the biggest conventional war in Africa's modern history...Biafra war....half a million soldiers on both sides plus the only large scale amphibious assault in African history that many NATO countries have never even attempted before .
Torch landings in Algeria were bigger
NATO countries have been involved in the Torch Landings, D-Day, Invasion of Sicily, Invasion of Italy, Crossing of the Rhine, 100's of Ampibious Assaults in the Far east, The Inchon landings and amphibious landings in Veitnam and Somalia
Biafra was not a fully conventional war - name the artillery duels, tank battles and dog-fights for us.
Biafran civil war involved 150 000 men
Angolan Civil war involved 416 000 men
Again you lie and lie and lie
I dont know why you bother with this forum - you have allready admitted on beegugugs forum that South Africa is your master
agaugust: Yes, the embarrassment to France is worse than Nigeria.
Terrorism comes in different forms, who is worse affected is not a game of total numbers, but the objectives achieved by the terrorist and overall impact of the attack.
The biggest single terrorist attack in the world, the most dramatic and most embarrassing record belongs to America, the terrorist attack on New York city 9/11. The number of Americans who died in 6 hours is more than half of all those that died in Nigeria in 6 years.
France's capital Paris was locked down by 3 terrorists for 3 days and took mighty France 88,000 police, SWAT, and soldiers 3 days to defeat 3 terrorists.
No terrorist has ever succeeded in locking down Abuja for 1 minute .
No, it is a numbers game
Dead French Civilians: 17 Number of displaced french civilians: 0 French territory held by terrorists: 0km Number of days terrorism lasted: 2-3
Dead Nigerian Civilians: 4000-5000 Number of displaced Nigerian civilians: 1,5 million Nigerian territory held by terrorists: approx 30,528 km² Number of YEARS terrorism lasted: 14
Egyptian Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Ashrat Salama, has called on Nigeria to collaborate against the terrorist group, Islamic State and ensure the establishment of a multi-national force against it, he particularly noted that it was necessary for Nigeria to work with Egypt to combat the terrorist group. “It is too big for Egypt alone, you cannot go just because you are provoked, you have to plan well. We must not give a chance to these terrorists,” he added.
col·lab·o·ra·tion kəˌlabəˈrāSH(ə)n/ noun 1. the action of working with someone to produce or create something. "he wrote on art and architecture in collaboration with John Betjeman"
agaugust: Crude oil and gas was first discovered in Nigeria in 1956 in large commercial quantities at the town of Oloibiri and export sales began in 1958. So, in 1960 we drove the British away and took our destiny in our hands. The British did not have the courage to fight war with Nigeria over independence and left us in peace.
South Africans were too dunce and too dence to grab the bulls by the horns and wrestle the white man to release your destiny to you, so dumb and senseless were you that you did not even know you had anything called destiny, reason why the Boer caged you like zoo creatures until 1994 when even Togo republic had gotten independence long before you genetic M.orons of South Africa. Shame !
If Nigeria did not lead OAU to free you, no black or coloured South African will ever own a laptop and you and me will not even be arguing here on nairaland. WE FREED YOU, BE GRATEFUL ! .
Still claiming imaginary glories? How shamefull and delusional to think that your country has any relevance on the international level.
The end of the cold war ended apartheid, the English and Americans didnt need the Apartheid government to fight communism in Africa, so they cut their support and waited for them to fold. All Nigeria did was issue visa's and write a single song - so impressive
I am not wasting my time with this argument - the speakers at Madiba's funeral show who was the nations that truly assisted us.
Now, go back to sucking South Africa's d1ck on Beegugugugug's blog
agaugust: Nigeria has both training and combat experience.
South Africa has only some weak training but NO combat experience .
South Africa is the only one between the two that has:
1. Fought a modern conventional war 1a. Fought a modern mechanized war* 1b. Fought a modern mobility war* 2. Fought in air-to-air combat 3. Operated in air-space domenated by advanced enemy SAM's 4. Conducted Air-borne operations 5. Conducted Air-Assault operations
And in terms of training, Nigeria is not even in the same sport, let alone competing
agaugust: They used airborne command and control in the days of Napoleon Bonaparte, homing pigeons deliver messages over long distance and all kinds of terrain. War history is beyond your level of comprehension. Go sit down men !
BWA-HAHAHAHAHAHA
He doesnt know what airborne command and control is!!
ChukwuCantDie: I know exactly what kaffir means you dirty colored drug addict piece of sh1t, i also see you trying to accuse me of being white in the picture thread? and promoting multiculturalism? i swear to god i wish we could meet in person so i could knock your fukking colored head off your shoulders you annoy me too much i swear.. i hope you die a very violent death sometime soon
jln115: @Agaugust wishes one day that Nigeria could be as technologically advanced as South Africa:
Augustine says: January 2, 2015 at 8:29 pm
After this war ends, Nigeria should sit down, plan and vote big money on a modern defense industry, see what South Africa has done. If DICON was moderately advanced in technology close to the level of South Africa, we would have turned all those our non-lethal vehicles, aircraft, drones, ships, boats, and helicopters into killer beasts instead of complaining about America refusing to sell. Imagine what we can do if DICON is like DENEL, transform Cobra, Igirigi, Mowag, BTR-3, Steyr, Toyota 4X4, MT-LB, Spartan, Cessna, Beechcraft, Diamond, Albatross, Augusta, Puma, Andoni, X-38, even NNS Thunder into killer beasts ! Nothing like self reliance o !
Well here is Nigeria....Paratroopers with years of consistent combat experience....not Hollywood SANDF
The birds always envy Naija !
[/size]
1. Do a google reverse-image search - that first pic is British and French paratroopers. I have seen the pic before, and when i saw it on the other thread i double checked. 2. Show us a list of Nigerian combat drops. Has nigeria done a single combat drop in its history?
agaugust: The most difficult part of ship building is the on-board mechanical and electrical systems, that is what makes a ship fulfill it's sea mission, the hull/body carcass is nothing special, we already build bigger ships at Nigerdock, what we need to learn and we have learnt, is the on-board systems construction of a sophisticated 2014 naval warship, not just welding body metals to shape a ship's hull, Nigeria has already advanced beyond that low level many years ago .
You are simply installing parts manufactured in other nations.
Again, if I put together an Ikea desk, is that assembly or manufacture?
And, also, working with military grade steel is very difficult, simply getting hold of it is difficult
saengine: THE TRUTH COMES OUT?? WHO IS THIS MYSTERIOUS AUGUSTINE ON BEEGEAGLE'S BLOG??
Funny that there is also an Augustine on this thread....maybe it's just a coincidence
Listen to what he said.......
"Submarines, are the ultimate weapon platform in sea power, one lone submarine can sink a whole navy of 10 warships.
One single South African navy submarine today will sink the entire Nigerian navy fleet of major ships in 24 hours, and the submarine will sail back home to Cape Town in peace.
A navy without a good submarine is a weak and incomplete navy. Submarines were invented by oyinbo man for a reason and since World War II 1940s till today 2015 every navy in the world is afraid of enemy submarines, even American navy fears them !
Nigeria can start with two submarines. possibly second hand cheap from China, the Song Class submarines for say $160 million each fairly used units.
The price of the new submarine is the same as the price of a new Frigate warship.
Effective defense and protection of a nation’s territorial integrity is not cheap, an freedom is not free of charge.
