Me I take it to mean the soldiers suspect that ISWAP has sympathy in our pilot ranks.

Disastrous and deadly if even slightly true.

DaddyGoo:
And how do you protect the associated transmission network?

Because you still need one, albeit scaled down.

Remember it is "high tension" pylons they have been bringing down to cause the darkness in the first place.

tutudesz:
You are the quickest in reporting the deaths of security operatives always Why

Valkrie:
Lol..!! Up Nigeria...!!

demolition:

Logically thinking it is impossible.

So many things could go wrong but speculating we have compromised pilots. Omo that has to be Kwale weed at work.

cutievik:
How true is this...

Nigeria as presently constituted don't have the capacity to end France hegemony on West Africa. Ask yourself do we even have a foreign policy in the first place? We are lucky France isn't really interested in the affairs of Nigeria, if we provoke them to beam their search light on us believe you me there may be a coup in Nigeria. It's like we all don't really know how deeply divided this country have sunk. Some people are ready to sabotage Nigeria even without any form of incentive as long as they get logistic support.
The centre is already weak as there is no leadership presently in Nigeria, give or take we are towing the Yugoslavia path except something urgent is done to put the nation on a 180° turn.

JOSCOFELIX:
GEIDAM IS UNDER HEAVY ATTACK AGAIN. STRIKE GUDZMALA NOW

IGpro1:
not really, Iran has been playing rough with the US and Israel even when she knows they have nukes.
in this century, no country will dare nuke another, it will be a deal with the devil, not even the us will try that again.

IGpro1:
Nigeria sent troops to, yes, to smaller countries. it's like Mexico and Canada deploying to US because there's crises. Nigeria, IMO is bigger than AU.
let me rephrase the statement ' if Nigeria cannot allow US soldiers in the fight, do you think she will allow AU to deploy beyond her boundaries.
even the MNJTF were only allowed based on mutual agreement.

NuraSambo:
Interesting. So why did NATO get involved in the 2011 Libyan civil war against the Gadaffi regime? The last time I checked, the founding objective of NATO is to defend member states from Soviet aggression; how then does this fit into NATO's involvement in the 2011 Libyan revolution? Did the NTC rebels enter into, in your own words, any 'Security agreement' with NATO? Were the NTC rebels members of NATO?

iboboyswag:
True but again, Africa can't be ever truly free if some of its constituent states remain in shackles.

France can be brought to the negotiation table to dialogue a release(as violence would never cut it), and as a Bloc (if not for false posturing by states without rudders the likes of Ghana, Senegal, Rwanda and their ilks), the AU would have been the best vehicle to push for the actualization of these objective.

But then, sabotage and bloated egos have been the main stay of most AU interventions.

I wish Nigeria would have been able to do something, but most often, going by precedence, it is thankless job.

jpphilips:
That era has long passed, they should carry their cross!! do you expect Nigeria to do another Sierra Leone/Liberia kinda charity in this era? hell no!!

Odunayaw:
Poor journalism.

NuraSambo:
You refuted my comment about BH's continued presence in Geidam few minutes ago, here you are, yelling now. All of us must get sense by force.

NuraSambo:
In fact the family house of the new IG of police, Usman Baba Alkali, who is also from Geidam, is being used as a base for the Boko Haram commanders.

Roan77:
This new Air force chief seems clueless, he doesn't know what he's doing, I mean he's taking the Air force back to stone ages, I wish the former chief was still in charge, under this new Air force chief tenure, a lot of things has happened under his watch..jeez

jpphilips:
That is what we already know from battlefield pictures, a foreign intelligence source revealed that arms from Libya & Mali (once troubled states) to West Africa is less than 10%, there is no doubt Boko & ISWAP restock from our supplies.

Jimi24:
Nigerians should take the trouble to think about situations. The brain was given for a reason.
When you are an Army company on the ground and you radio for air support, the *nearest* aircraft is asked to come to you.
What if it was vectored in from another engagement and dies not have any more bombs, rockets and even fuel to make it back to base?. It woukd have to leave you without engaging but there is value in the trip because it might have scared the enemy away or given information to joint operations control.

It is always annoying to hear these reports of NAF coming and leaving without engaging and dunces concluding that it was sabotage

Jakpon:
Under the watch of the former Chief more than two hundred civilians taking refuge at the IDP camp in Rann were bombed to ashes.
Tolulope Arotile that Yoruba girl acclaimed for her successful flight missions against Boko Haram was killed at the air force base under suspicious circumstances.
These two incidence are some examples of the mess witnessed during the tenure of the former Air boss. It has nothing to do with cluelessness of the current CAS. It's way more than that. The country itself is sick

jpphilips:
So your Idea of Africom is a bunch of US soldiers fighting for Nigeria, is that what you think? AU is bigger than Nigeria, number 1 to 3 best militaries in Africa are AU members, Nigeria sits at the 4th place, a synergy of 1 & 2 alone will annihilate Nigeria let alone number 3.
