Lol. too much...is it not the same AK iswap use ?

The difference is that the cobbler or carpenter or driver within a garrisoned town today can be the leader of an attack on the same town tomorrow. On many instances, attacks have been started by terrorists that have been inhabiting the town. The flexibility is the difference.

That was Dasuki now he was the one in charge of procurement then, he also got the T-72 without spares the enough ammunition.
NA had to be begging NAF for the required ammunition for the BTRs then and those ones also needed it desperately.

We've had really bad NSA in this country. They should consider putting a foreign expatriate in that position for some time, not because we don't have capable and patriotic people that are eligible but because our politicians tend to listen more to foreigners.

It's unethical to give that sensitive position to a foreigner. I'll prefer if that position is given to a seasoned brilliant individual it isn't a must to have an Ex-military personnel head that position same for the Ministry of defence. At that level we need people that can think, formulate working policies/strategies and collaborate seamlessly with all security agencies in achieving the goal of making Nigeria a safe country

Bandits Kill Zamfara Government Official, Businesswoman

The incident happened on Sunday evening and those killed include an engineer and Director of Works at Kaura Namoda Local Government Area, Umaru Nabita Moriki and a local businesswoman identified as Hajia Rumba Jengeru.

Gunmen suspected to be bandits have killed two travellers along Zamfara Road.

The incident happened on Sunday evening and those killed include an engineer and Director of Works at Kaura Namoda Local Government Area, Umaru Nabita Moriki and a local businesswoman identified as Hajia Rumba Jengeru.


The gunmen were said to have “opened fire on the travellers on the Kaura Namoda-Moriki-Shinkafi Road”.

A former sole administrator of Shinkafi Local Government Area was also caught in the attack but escaped with minor injuries.

The incident comes a few weeks after bandits killed 13 persons, including a mother and her infant in Randa, Dansadau district of the Maru Local Government Area.

Deadly attacks have raged across Zamfara state where bandits have thrived.

Farming and herding communities in the state have long been terrorised by gangs who raid villages, stealing cattle and kidnapping residents for ransom.

In 2019, the state government entered a peace agreement with the gunmen.

About 15 brand new Hilux vehicles and cash gifts were also given to leaders of different 'repentant' gangs of bandits by the governor in 2020.

But despite all these, communities in the state are still being attacked and residents kidnapped and/or killed.

BREAKING: Retired Navy Commodore Kunle Olawunmi Arrives Defence Intelligence Agency After Being Declared Wanted Over Channels TV's Anti-Buhari Interview

A top source told SaharaReporters that the former Navy commander arrived at the agency's office in company with his lawyers - Femi Falana (SAN) and Abubakar Marshall - on Tuesday.

SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORKAUG 31, 2021

Retired Nigerian Navy Commodore, Kunle Olawunmi, has arrived at the Military Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA), Abuja a few days after he was declared wanted by the agency.

A top source told SaharaReporters that the former Navy commander arrived at the agency's office in company with his lawyers - Femi Falana (SAN) and Abubakar Marshall - on Tuesday.

“Navy Commodore Kunle Olawunmi has arrived at the military DIA in Abuja. He was accompanied by his lawyers,” the source told SaharaReporters.

“They initially declared him wanted but downgraded it when the plot was leaked.”

SaharaReporters recalls that the Defence Intelligence Agency had declared Olawunmi wanted for exposing in an interview how President Muhammadu Buhari's administration refused to probe high profile politicians whom Boko Haram terrorists named as their sponsors.

The DIA had asked Olawunmi to come to its headquarters in Abuja on Tuesday with his international passport, which may be seized. The agency, however, made a U-turn when the plot was exposed.

The Defence Intelligence Agency is the primary military intelligence agency of Nigeria.




A top source had said at the time, “The agency has declared retired Navy Commodore Kunle Olawunmi wanted for spilling the beans over Boko Haram sponsors in the Buhari regime. They asked him to come with his international passport on Tuesday to the DIA office in Abuja.”

SaharaReporters had last Wednesday reported what Olawunmi said when he featured on Channels Television’s ‘Sunrise Daily’ breakfast programme.

He had condemned the attack by bloodthirsty bandits on the Kaduna campus of Nigeria’s foremost military university, the Nigerian Defence Academy, where two military officers were killed and another kidnapped.

The Professor of Global Security Studies had said, “It is an aberration; you don’t attack the Nigerian Defence Academy and get away with it. In 2017, I carried out an investigation by the Minister of Defence that wanted me to check what was going on with the training and the security there (NDA). I remember I spent about a week in the NDA with the commandant and the staff but something struck me: every Friday, the gate of NDA is thrown open and everybody has access to pray in the mosque.




“On Fridays, you are going to see the same thing happening across all military formations in the country. If you go to Defence Headquarters, I served at the Defence Headquarters as the Deputy Director, Defence Administration, between 2015 and 2017, throughout my two years at Defence Headquarters, I received visitors twice because of the strict security architecture there but every Friday, the gate of the Defence Headquarters is thrown wide open for everybody to come in and observe Juma’at.

“That is the time the terrorists have the time to profile our security environment. It has always been the case. I have served the military intelligence for the past 35 years. Our problem is religion and socio-cultural.”

Olawunmi had added that he was a member of the Intelligence Brief at the Defence Headquarters during the leadership of the then Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), Gen. Abayomi Olonisakin (retd.).

The intelligence expert said he told the then CDS that the centre of gravity of the Boko Haram insurgency ravaging the North-East and spreading to other parts of Nigeria was the sponsor.

“I told General Olonisakin then that the centre of this problem cannot be solved the same way we solved the problem of the Niger Delta. The Niger Delta problem was solved during (Ex-President Umaru) Yar’Adua basically by me and I told them that we can’t use that same template for Boko Haram.

“I told General Olonisakin to look at the centre of gravity of the problem. I was made a member of the committee in 2016-2017 including former Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru that died.

“I told them that the centre of gravity of Boko Haram in Nigeria is the sponsors of the programme. It was beyond us because the job we needed to do was kinetic but we cannot resolve the issues of sponsors of Boko Haram that were in Buhari’s government that we know them. That was why we couldn’t pursue that aspect that could have resolved the issue because we need to arrest people.


“Recently, 400 people were gathered as sponsors of Boko Haram, why is it that the Buhari government has refused to try them? Why can’t this government bring them to trial if not that they are partisan and part of the charade that is going on?

“You remember this Boko Haram issue started in 2012 and I was in the military intelligence at that time. We arrested those people. My organisation conducted interrogation and they (suspects) mentioned names. I can’t come on air and start mentioning names of people that are presently in government that I know that the boys that we arrested mentioned. Some of them are governors now, some of them are in the Senate, some of them are in Aso Rock.

“Why should a government decide to cause this kind of embarrassment and insecurity to the sense of what happened yesterday (Tuesday at the NDA)?”

Olawunmi had also said that the Department of State Services had tremendous information on terrorists but they could not do anything except by the body language of the Commander-In-Chief.

The Taliban are showing they can effectively copy/or even better western media in whitewashing persons and events.

What exactly has the US acheived?
In trying so hard to destroy groups and nation, they only ended up being the catalyst for their survival and progress, look at Iran, successfully launching an indigenous destroyer in addition to a successfully development of their middle systems (mersad-16)
Then see the mess at Afghan,..

Goodluck with persuading a true soldier to mount RWS on their APC.
Sometimes I wonder whether people really understand the use case problems with some of these "video games" type systems that sound interesting to us bloody civilians.
