You are equally a victim of the nonsense you are defending, despite your years here, are you saying you don't know Nigerian Navy has ground units?
What is wrong in training a ground unit in Kano when all the Amphibious units are littered down south?

why should it matter if its in South or north?
I know most Nigerians have mental issues, pls stop making yours very obvious.

youghs:


You know you can actually make your case without insults or disrespect

NewDelhi:

I don't think you know what you're saying.

Who here has operated with airforce ground forces/sf, how effective is their training in terms of tactics and how sound are they? Are the training realistic in enough to make them understand how easy you can get killed if you loose your nerves under fire and is this drilled in them, and in what scenarios are live bullets used during their drills? I ask this, because during contacts/ operations they seem to loose high number of personnel compared to the navy SBS, infact the SBS has a reputation of getting job done with minimal casualties, and I have seen a bit of their training, in SBS training you can easily get killed if you flinch, because you are given a task to accomplish under live fire, we are talking bullets hitting 2 fleets from you during training.

The movie isn't worth it, don't bother.

Rich4god:


You can enlighten me.

So what was the rationale for taking a Naval base to his home state that is the crux of my query, Buratai took a university to his village despite the insecurity in Borno, AVM Sadique built a NAF hospital in his home state, Ihejirika did something similar, now the current CNS despite the fact that their is a similar training base in Kaduna by the same service, tomorrow Amao and current COAS may toe same path & in your mind we shouldn't ask about the reason behind those choices whether it is strategic or purely emotional. Tomorrow someone will wake up and decide to build a military facility in Niger republic & we all he expected not to ask for explanations; even the US and the UK that have the best navies in the world have their Naval bases in their Continental shelves. Ethiopia used to have a navy but had to shut down that arm of service when Eritrea broke out of the country.
Classical zombiesm is a common strain amongst you govt lackies, at your age you are getting stupider with each passing day, the stupider you get the more emotionally unstable you become.

If someone Whyem15 ?? can help with the pictures I'd show you the typical FOB newsmen call bases.

Whyem15:


Those defending bases like this are very reselient.
2m tall hesco filled with sand will stop many of the nonsense happening to NA bases.

Forget hesco sef, sacks filled with sands and arranged in pallets will save lots of lives.

All I need to cause panic and loss of cohesion in such bases are long range weapons that will allow me hit the camps and put me out of range of most of their riffles. Surround such a base from multiple sides and you will just be laughing at what you would achieve.

The pic with the half-hearted ditch makes me laugh - isn’t that like only erecting a door without the house around it?

or, better still, what's the point of the ditch?

ugo4u:

Is that a ditch or a ridge meant for planting Yam.

DubaiLandLord1:
I don't even see a need for the Nigerian Navy to have a massive infantry unit for now.

For money reason, them suppose leave all this infantry unit for now and make dem concentrate on Naval Warfare alone. The Army should be left alone to fully take charge of everything that has to do with land warfare.

It's only in Nigeria you will build an Oil refinery thousands of Kms away from where the crude is drilled and now spend billions to build/maintain pipes to connect the refinery as against building that facility where it will be easier & cost effective to access the crude. All in the name of federal character or sentiments purely to appease or massage the ego of whoever is in charge, and we're wondering why things don't seem to work here.

Whyem15:
Another thing vexing me about the military is their defensive posture. They are the reason why they are overstretched. Where they are supposed to launch an offensive against the enemy for a few weeks and neutralize all threats and return to their base, they prefer to set up these stupid camps. The camps and FOBs while reasonable in the northeast because of the territorial ambition of the terrorists isn't reasonable in the northwest because those ones just want to attack and leave. Even for those in the northeast, it will end up being disastrous if they are not supported by assault teams that will be constantly be on offensive.

RiceProducers:


Not only in Nigeria. India has best and largest Refineries. They don't have oil and have to import it.
The entire industry of putting crude oil inside tankers is based on refineries being far from crude oil production areas.
Refineries can be closer to the downstream markets.

Let's stop posting stuff out of ignorance just to show that we are 'better' than our own country which is often idiotic

You're the ignorant person here, and arrogant at your ignorance. Going by your logic one can build groundnut pyramids in Akwa Ibom and spend millions transporting same product from Kano to A.Ibom on bad roads to maintain the pyramids as against building those pyramids in Kano where it's easier to plan for the logistics. You people don't ask questions why private investors don't operate that way only the government.
You're a "Rice producer" indeed.

SBS cannot be compared to NAF panther, them no be mate.
And secondly you need to factor in the number of engagement NAF panther get every year. When you factor that in, you'll realize the casualty level is very very low.
