Pay N28m Or Lose 52 Captives In Our Custody ― Boko Haram Warns Adamawa Community …Community leaders plead with Buhari, Gov Fintiri to intervene to save captives Many weeks after Boko Haram terrorists invaded Kwapre community in Hong Local Government Area of Adamawa State and made away with no fewer than 52 members of the area, the insurgents have sent a demand notice to the village head to either pay a ransom of N28 million or lose the captives. The terrorists, who are said to be emboldened by the proximity of the community to the dreaded Sambisa Forest and its inaccessibility by security agencies, have also threatened to be taking taxes from the community, which they now patrol with ease. During the deadly attack on the community last month, the terrorists did not only kill 11 members of the village, but they also razed many houses and looted valuables belonging to the besieged community. Arewa Voice gathered that majority of the captives are women and children whose parents, husbands and relatives are now wondering whether they are alive or dead, having not been seen since they were seized by the terrorists for over five weeks running. Alarmed by the demand notice by the terrorists, the Village Head of Kwapre, Joel Kulaha, has sent a Save-Our-Soul plea to President Muhammadu Buhari and the Adamawa State Governor, Alhaji Fintiri, to come to the rescue of the people. The village head lamented that they neither have the huge amount of money demanded by the terrorists nor know how to reach them for any form of negotiation to secure the release of their people from captivity. The royal fathers called on the Governor to do everything possible towards securing the release of their relations, saying that their situation calls for concern and immediate intervention. |

Stormtrooper11:I don't agree with you. There is no way a soldier that have been trained well will suddenly forget those tactics during a firefight. A well trained soldier that is not compose during a firefight has nothing to do with a fighting unit. 5 Likes |

DubaiLandLord1:easy to say but that's not how it works irl. Most high level training goes out the window at first contact. Theres even a saying about this that goes something like "No plan survives first contact". |

The North have more states, so there will always be more soldiers from the North. North West-7 North Central-6 North East-6 6+6+7=19 19+1(Abuja is in the North Central)=20 The south have just 17 states. |

Stormtrooper11:Forget all this talk. They should have also employed an equal amount of men in other parts of the country to balance things up. Federal character principles must be applied to everything. |

Odunayaw: But hasn't it been bigger than it was before 2013/2014. Let's be honest, the Military oga's have not been managing the defence budget well. Call it meagre all you want but many countries can only dream of having such and yet their security is not as bad as ours 2 Likes |

Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by Whyem15: 8:18pm On May 16, 2021 |
Sizzorkay: I will estimate more than that. If every air interdiction and CAS kills at least 3 terrorist everyday such operations are carried out and we have such operations 1/4 of the year, that alone is almost 400 terrorists killed by the airforce alone. The frequency of air operations might be much lower than the estimate but we all know the casualties is much higher per air operation. 1 Like |

Whyem15: This is the reason I'm glad Nigeria will be receiving more fixed and rotary wing platforms which will result in increase in frequency of air operations. This will dissuade bandits and terrorist from setting up camps and aggregating in meaningful numbers from fear of being bombarded by the airforce which will in turn lead to significant reduction in their capabilities. The low operating cost of the super tucanos is another advantage that will eventually increase frequency of air operations. DHQ should start thinking about getting high resolution military satellites that will reduce the use of ISR aircrafts while covering large areas of land. It will also be very useful for border security. 2 Likes |

intel reaching me. the nigeria sf and army on a strike mission starting from friday to sunday came under heavy fire from iswap , the gallant officer repelled the attack and killed almost all the fighter, the gallant officer took another mission and attack a iswap location killing more, another good news from samba axis but not clarified yet. nigeria men advancing to gumbumil in gudzmala came under ambush from iswap the gallant officer fought their way killing the iswap fighter ,sadly three solider went down. the number of iswap and bh that died a yearly are much more than the men of the nigeria army, calculate from air interdiction, artillery strike, mortal strike direct combat and more and you will see that bh ansd iswap loss more fighter than the Nigeria army 3 Likes |

DubaiLandLord1:You don't need to agree. It's how shit is. That's why the military does its best to train men to carry out orders because many times that's all a man may be able to do in a firefight — carry out orders from his seasoned NCO 1 Like |

Odunayaw: Seasoned NCO I laughter You know why most NA NCOs aren't seasoned? Let me give you an example... A retired NCO was interviewed by sahara reporters and he said that when it came time to send them (NCOs) for training abroad, senior officers will drop rank and take their slots and that it had become common place such that it was seen as the norm... And you tell me that money ain't enough...Now just look at that scenario. Instead, our NCOs are left to themselves to learn what they can from combat (that is if they survive) 2 Likes |
