Well, at least we can say there’s hope. I was loosing hope because I thought we, Nigeria Army, had exhausted every tactic, formation, used up every advice available and yet Bokoharam were still causing problems, now we know Nigeria army has not even began planning, they’re not yet serious.

Are you trying to reply me or you just want to be a dumb f**k on a Sunday morning.

Where did I mention the bolded?

My point was that the young man is a police officer.
With the current killings of police officers going on in the east it is no surprise why he stole the firearm for obvious self defense reasons.

He got the cap to blend in, no doubt. We have all seen occasions where the so called police men usually take off their uniforms and find the nearest exit in the face of danger. So what are you talking about?

If the young officer was found with a live and unlicensed firearm.

What are his colleagues supposed to do. Arrest and investigate the case, not brutalize him.

You can see how they are already slapping the hell out of him. That is torture and it is illegal.

So yes, you have somehow lost the ability to think like human.


A very low IQ is not difficult to spot, if you can't see the bolded in your earlier submission then you are truly a low IQ.

The were facing criminals living with innocent civilians and they still succeeded. Today's terrorist and bandits have largely isolated themselves from innocent people making it super easy for the military to finish off but then....

If that wasn't enough, ISWAP in Nigeria even collects and distributes Zakat, with photos aiming to show them as a group fully able to govern. Like I said earlier, ISWAP wants to fill the security vacuum in the areas with no government control and Zakat is a primary example of it.

In this regards, when you neglect the people so much. The enemy starts looking sexy.

I saw these images in the recent ISWAP release of photos showing daily life in areas they control.
Decided not to post them here and give these arseholes the publicity they crave.
They even go on patrols around "their" territory as if they were a real army!
This is all so maddening.

A truck tripped over in Onitsha today, the truck was filled with bullets. Why on earth are we pretending we have a port or port security?
Ports authority workers, customs officers, police officers in checkpoints from the port till Onitsha only care about the extra money they will get while on duty. The same money they will use to Ransome their family members when abducted. The properties they will be forced to abandon when the crime and violence they facilitated becomes too unbearable for them. Majority of Nigerians are unfortunate people and that is why we will keep on having unfortunate leaders.

If you know your way, have the connection and the money, you go import assault rifles and bombs into Nigeria through the Apapa port in Lagos.

For that Apapa, you fit import rice, talk say nah medicine dey the container. A lot of contraband they enter Nigeria everyday.

People dey really short-change the FG and the country in general through that port. A lot of runs dey go on for Apapa port.

No Police station in the SE and some part of SS have a functional armoury. All excess arms have been moved to a safe place and well guarded. Only arms of daily rotation are kept. The Poiice are not daft to continue keeping excess unused arms in isolated Police divisions. So all these reports of Police divisional armoury looted are false.

If the Police can't protect their stations it is better they shut them down and adopt
something similar to the super camp strategy if possible. I don't see any sense in maintaining police stations without proper weapons to defend themselves in isolated areas endangering the lives of Policemen most of who are ordinary staff officers.

Nigeria police force is a useless organisation. They know they will recruit more men when is time, so they don't really care about losing their men.

Bro, not to inflame tempers but hope you see my point about the quality of training given to these officers.

Is the NDA just for show or is the SSC course just for gra gra?

What type of training do we give our soldiers? Is it yo plant head alone or just go through unnecessary hardship while ignoring battle tactics.

I have always said it and I will continue to say this; TRADOC of NA is at the root of our Army's problems and if that organization can be revamped, then we may yet see better fighting men

Thousands flee Kebbi communities over invasion by armed bandits
By Saxone Akhaine, Kaduna

Humanitarian crisis is brewing in Zuru Emirate, Kebbi State as thousands of villagers have fled their communities following the invasion by armed bandits. Three of the four Local Government Areas that make up the Emirate that are worse hit are Sakaba, Donka/Wasagu and Fakai.

A member representing Sakaba Constituency at the Kebbi State House of Assembly, Salisu Dangoje, lamented the humanitarian crisis in his constituency and called for urgent assistance before it is too late.

Zuru Emirate is said to have a landmass of about 9000kmsq, more than the size of Anambra and Lagos States combined. But banditry, which started as isolated cases in the Emirate some seven years ago, has now become large scale and a daily occurrence between 2020 and this year, getting to the peak in the last one month.

At the time of filing this report, there were reported raids ongoing in rural communities, in broad daylight. The situation is said to be causing a massive influx of villagers, who trek hours to reach the nearest urban or semi-urban areas that are considered safe in the Emirate.

“Right now the number of refugees in Donka town is three or four times the number of residents here,” said Mallam Jibrin Abubakar Danko, the village head of Donka, a semi-urban settlement in Donka/Wasagu LGA.

“I can’t estimate their numbers, but [b]they are in their thousands [/b]he explained. “They are still coming each day and feeding them is a huge challenge,” he added.

According to Danko, most of them escaped with only what they had on, carrying not a grain of food. “Some of the women have resorted to begging. I don’t know what will happen in the next few weeks,” he said, “We need urgent intervention,” he pleaded.

The displaced persons are almost everywhere that appears secured in the Emirate, including Zuru town, and its satellite areas such as Sabon Gari and the historically rich Dabai town.

Others places where human misery could be seen are Ribab, Bena, Waje, Ayu, Yalmo and Unashi, which was also viciously attacked last April. The IDPs were also sighted in places like Diri Daji, Dirin Gida, Jan Birni, Beve and other areas in the affected council areas.

“We are hungry all the time and we don’t know how long we can manage it here,” Mariam Bitrus, 50, mother of 11 children putting up at the United Mission Church of Africa (UMCA) in Diri Daji said.

Bitrus added: “My village, Maganda, Adai ward in Sakaba LGA, was attacked by thieves and they stole our cattle and burnt our grains. We had to run for our dear lives last week,” she said.

Armed bandits are wrecking havoc and have their footprint in more than 15 LG in some Northern states.

The insecurity situation under GMB is more terrible than how it was under GEJ.

I remember the day GEJ declared a state of emergency In Borno, Adamawa and Yobe. Soldiers moral was so high, they were thinking is just what they will go in, kill some terrorists and anything that moved, burn one or two villages, maning different checkpoints, been very brutal to civilians and frowning face.

To be frank, you are very right. Our Military Men are overrated. Even the Special Forces are also overrated.

To those doubting the Camp, that's how Bases in Borno look like. A Dude posted a short Clip of his Brother presently in Borno roasting Grasscutters with Colleagues, that's exactly kinda Structures I saw in the Clip.

Even those acting War Films are better trained tactically than our Military. You'll see them shooting anyhow. Jez load, cuck and shoot at anything. No tactical Movements, no sign of professionalism at all.

When Big Guns in the Army stop playing Chess, War with BH will be over. Foot Soldiers are simply Pawns. I've lost 2 closed Pals already, one last year, and another this year. I grew up with one, we were so closed until his death, so painful.

The other was my classmate, he was Man O War Corp while in School. He so much adored Army, he painfully exits this World and left behind a Widow and an Orphan.

I am so tired of reading some Tales about Army killing scores of Terrorists. When you check the Image, you'll be seeing only 2,3 Riff-raffs. Where are the rest that makes up the Scores?

Wike asked Question about $1b withdrawn from ECA for procurement of Arms, yet no Answer. Is this how we gonna keep losing Friends and Brothers?

When you ask any Army in Borno about the War, they will tell you same thing - Our Ogas dey carry am play politics and cashing out big. We should stop fooling around with crass Intels.... abegi.

When GMB tried to stop paying MEND, avengers bomb one or two pipeline, GMB and Buratai quickly lunched "Operation Crocodile smile" to crush the avengers and secure the pipeline, after some few more bombing by Avengers, no one begged the FG to resume the payment.
