I bet the soldiers don't even have Starlink or even a half-decent internet access of any type tongue

Why is El-rufai silent in all these?.. he should threaten the Nigerian Military now, the way he did when he was Governor of Kaduna, we want to check something. Okan gbogbo eyin odale o ni ba le..
The president should do something. I thought he was active and vocal when Jonathan was there. I was even active with him back then. What changed now is that Tinubu is now in power and inactive and docile while I'm still actively speaking up.

anointing oyel full your head

the inforantion for captured insurgents and meta data on the already captured devices is enough to track every single informant , foot soldier , middleman , sponsor , collaborator and sabotuer involved in this shii .
But as the man in dark sunshades said, "any insurgency that lasts longer than a few day has goverment hand inside am"

but the captured tterrorists will still be released in the wild to forment more trouble
the only repentant terrorist is a dead one

ogashman:
These guys have arrested countless boko boys.

They have also seized countless phones and other electronic devices.

And yet they can't track these guys down one by one and eliminate them.

Everyday, the same ol' story

They should contact starlink for information on activated dish connection within the area of concern.
That woulda been easily done by a concerned govt, but a govt that hasn't done anything with MTN, Glo, Airtel, NIN and BVN all these while can't do much with starlink

These guys are foreign funded and traded. for example, some countries have information on book haram location and attacks but won't share them because of their hidden agenda.
Abegiii, cause starlink is foreign ownedhuh?

What happened to the various network providers theyve been using previously. Are they sponsored by south Africans cause they use mtn, or sponsored by Chinese cause they use tiktok?


The list of sponsored shared with the Nigerian govt, what have they done about it?

Uncle hold your govt accountable and stop passing the blame to others

Starlink can be bought if you have the money so what's the fuss ? If they can afford high quality guns why are they surprised they can buy #500k satellite dish?

I think that's the problem with the way the military tackle this insurgent fight. Everyone knows the insurgent has access to high quality internet connection and since there aren't mast in the forest they must have relied on satellite relays; so are they saying nobody ever thought about that?
undecided

ManishSmith:
How did they get the starlink, where did they buy and who sold it to them. Investigate every starlink distributor then track the serial number, with that they can ascertain who made the purchase.
What are you saying.

Is there anything about him that suggests he couldn't travel to say cozy corporate Victoria Island to procure it with valid or fake identity documents, talk about hiding in plain sight. Is there anything written terrorist on his forehead.

We seem not to understand what an insurgency is all about. It is first and foremost an ideology before it is an armed conflict which means it's members or supporters can be anyone, anywhere, in any capacity with any amount of resources.

Why do you think it is so difficult to contain. We all probably come across their members in our everyday lives, even you may have interacted with one or two unknowingly and if you are a vendor in any part of the country may have unknowingly sold something that is aiding their operations.

Ideologies are in heads and hearts, not dressed in uniforms or carrying terror ID cards. They are apt on social media meaning one or two might even be on this forum.

Just the comment I was waiting for and boom, you guys don't seem to disappoint at all. Bro Starlink is available on the open market; anyone can literally buy it and use it, so you expect Elon Musk to come down to this shithole himself to police who bought Starlink and who didn't, or who uses Starlink and who doesn't. My friend, go and hold your security agencies liable for their laziness. They also uses glo and MTN for calls ehnn.. Also tell me they are backing them too. and these bandits may have worn clothes produced by you in Aba ehnn.. so tell me if Aba clothes and shoe producers are funding them. Don't pin your government failure on someone else. I am sick and tired of this Africans way of thinkiing.

Jeezuzpick:
The weyreys will not investigate now o, abi they don't know that people don't buy starlink like secondhand clothes by the roadside.

That device was bought by a person with a name and ID provided, subscription is being paid for by a human being o.......who are they??
They will definetl use fake ID, fake NIN and co, this country is gone for good.

BondRiv:
What happened to the proposed probe of the USAID by the Senate? It is a pity.
People who cannot even probe the killing happening in their backyard.

Another misunderstanding as relating to sponsors. Do you really need to sponsor an ideology. Or is preaching and professing not enough to generate practice.

There is no belief that requires anyone to pay anyone to practice and we all know this insurgency is all about a pseudo religious movement.

Just as preaching on the altar without financial inducement can generate vast resources so can this insurgency draw vast resources from those who believe in it, i.e self sponsorship.

That is why many, many years ago I advocated that defeating this insurgency will have to include a planned, deliberate and strategic policy of area, regional wide de-radicalisation.

That was the carrot I prescribed, not just the rudimentary acceptance and re integration of so called repented militants.

Bow can they share any information with the Nigeria, when we ourselves are not sincere with ourselves...

All these information they have been sharing with the authorities even the once as per killings by the fulanis...what have they done with it..?

The only come for picture shoot after the killings then go back and wait for the next round of massacre...

The international community know that elements with the Nigerians government and military are complicit in the killings going on in the country so no point wasting their time giving out any information.

The information they gave as per boko haram sponsors...what has come of it and what has the Nigerian government done about it...

Even within the military if you are too over zealous in carrying out your duty of killing boko haram or speak on how to win..you won't last on the field, you would be killed...

So tell me...

They are sponsored by the Jihadist in the middle east.
They are sponsored by locals. Nigerians. Even the warriors are Nigerian. The sole aim of the almajiri system is to produce heartless and soulless killers. They are now doing the work they were created for.

The soldiers mumu, how will you keep those ones alive when you intercept them.
If they kill them, how are they supposed to get information and needed Intel? After getting info, then they can arrange the meeting with their beloved virgins.

El-rufai will be angry now and start saying that the government is killing the north. The obidients will then jump at it and start abusing Tinubu and then turn around again and start shouting insecurity grin

Boko haram dey use Starlink to comunicate and brutalize innocent Nigerians who pay their taxes and go about their business peacefully. And yet the Govt can hardly equip our military forces with the necessary tools to quell this menace and the very Nigerians they have sworn to protect. Its a BIG SHAME.
Re: Soldiers Seize Starlink, High-Tech Equipment From Boko Haram by Anaconda76: 12:12pm On Jul 26, 2025
Do we need any proof that BK is being sponsored by highly placed individuals? sad angry
