My papa follow fight this war, He was away when they gave birth to my sister, he sent the name to be given to her by a friend who they gave pass to see his family Ojo military cantonment, lagos

Where is the place of the late Major General Maxwell Khobe? The man was the hero of the Liberia expedition. Meanwhile, this is the same Nigeria Army being routed by Boko Haram today?

That should be Teni father

You are right. That is why the US did not defeat Taliban even after 20 years in Afghanistan. To fight terrorist is not child's play because you cannot identify one by just mere appearance

Thank you.

If the Nigerian army fights Boko Haram and bandits the way they fought in Sierra Leone and Liberia with ECOMOG, the whole country will scatter, and there will be massive civilian casualties.

It will be tantamount to Nigeria declaring war on itself.

That’s why a military solution can never be enough to end insecurity in Nigeria.

We must use other means, or ‘soft power’ as it’s called.

A good number of the Officers who led this operation has passed. It'll be nice to have some memoirs for history/the records. Would make an interesting read.

Seems na Transgender full our Army now.
This was when ReaL Men existed...
When Men had ODOURS

When Nigeria was a country

My Uncle fought in this war and the Liberia own too, from Ikeja cantonment, and he made it and become an officer in the Nigeria Army, before he retired last year

May the soul of the Galant soldier that fall in this war rest in peace.

Where is Item?


His dad served in Sierra Leone and Liberia. Old days are never to be forgotten. 🫡

He died in the war ??

Major General Dogonyaro really did a good job there.

21 gun salute to you sir.

Rest on sir.

obiekunie01:

Thught he died earlier in 1992 and this pictures was taken 1998. I guess he's a different Apkata

God bless the all Nigeria militaries

This thread should be moved to FP. We need more interesting and historical contents like this on FP.

I witnessed their landing Live at Mariner, Lagos.
It was a Sunday morning. The returning Soldiers instead of flagging down vehicles before crossing, sluggishly walked across the ever-busy expressway without any care!
Come and see cars skidding and ramming brakes to avoid collision!
Initially we thought it was another coup until some people from the jetty were like, ..."they're just returning from siera-leone on peacekeeping mission!" "Don't let them expend their remaining bullets on you o!"

Giant of Africa.

lost my dad there 1995 in sierria leone

So sorry about that. May his soul continue to rest in peace

22 years after, they couldn’t destroy ordinary rag-tag boko haram and Fulani herdsmen that have made Northern Nigeria the worst space on earth.

Stop talking rubbish.

The Nigerian military is even MORE powerful today, with better training, and more and better weapons.

They can never be as effective fighting an internal terrorist group in Nigeria for the simple reason that their ‘success’ in that depends on the amount of damage they can cause within the country, making it a terrible dilemma, which prevents them from exercising their full strength and armoury on the terrorists/bandits etc.

Send them out to fight a foreign war where there are no such restraints, and you will see they’re a fearsome fighting force.

Bullshit

You don't even know what you're saying. If you want to support something, do it with logical reasoning.
