It's not about the quality of guns. Assault rifles are assault rifles. Even if you're armed with M50 Cal machineguns, if you're ambushed in a moving convoy ( keyword is ambush) you'd be bested by your assailants. I don't know where you guys get your ideas from. If you see what civil defense officers carry, you won't be talking anyhow.
I am under NSCDC escort every Mondays to Saturdays on a massive project in Nigeria.
But our project does not allow us to be in the bush beyond 4pm.

Sometimes we have to access some areas with higher fortifications in Military escorts and Gun trucks.
Even with that, we can not go some places during the day not to talk of 1030pm.

Chinese, which I no know so well do take unnecessary risks.
Most times, they override security advice if they feel it is going to cost them more. 10:30pm is out of it.

When it is Ambush, the "ambusher" is more powered than the ambushed.

You're not in Nigeria, if you were you won't be saying this. This didn't happen on Nigerian soil. It happened in Benin Republic.

Ribadu and O'mockery said the country is safe. We dare not second-guess the words of our master. There was no line crossed, since this wasn't on Nigerian soil, so Ribadu has nothing to worry about.
I know you are happy because this happened because it's a discredit to the government of Nigeria. But you will all be shamed by God's grace.

Omo they killed 8 officers? I thought nscdc officers carry guns. How are they able to kill 8 armed men without losing anyone on their side
The first time I saw civil defense agitating headline to carry weapons and trying to do like soldiers I know that is the beginning of their predicament.

What a super question, impressive stuff from you.

Hopefully you can now see that one simple question is more effective than a million banal ones.


Kudos to you.

Very sad...

Security personnel, especially those on DD (danger duty) should be properly supported with weapons and kits.

If those officers had at least level 5 bullet proof vests, Night vision googles, level 5 helmets and other protective gear, they would have stood a better chance of putting up a fight as long as it was not a land mine or grenade attack.

Hopefully, the government pays thier families the entitlements without delay.
All these is still not enough to give them a better chance. Know Ambush first deal with your psychological state than anything else


What would have given them a chance at all was if their vehicle was a bullet proof one

Security personnel in hot zones are always trained to respond to ambushes. Every little thing that increases protection, increases chances.

No matter how tough the training is, they will only survive an Ambush if the attackers guns are not sophisticated and don't rapid shoot

What gives the military edge is the availability n the use of Gun trucks. Without it, they're all going down

What weapons did the attackers use?

Didn't some personnel survive the Ambush?

There have been numerous cases of security personnel surviving ambushes without having bullet proof vehicles, so you are only forcing a scenario that appeals to you.

Every form of protection increases chances of survival in an Ambush. Simple.

In an ambush, the advantage lies with the men waiting for you to drive by.

They have the advantage of surprise and they are shooting from a stationary position. If they are armed well enough and they have the numbers, the odds are overwhelmingly in their favour, unless the targets are in armoured vehicles or tanks.

You can imagine a large number of assailants who divide themselves into 3 or more groups and then lie in wait on one side of the road, hidden from view. Once the targets are within range, the assailants open fire and that's it.

If, if, if...

I don't understand how some of you feel only your viewpoints must be correct.

Have security personnel not been surviving ambushes?

What is your grouse in my statement that having advanced body armour, better weapons and more training would have helped them have a better chance? Keywords 'better chance'. My statement was certainly not absolute, so what is your headache?

Do you think armoured vehicles cannot be incapacitated?

Going by your logic, the security personnel might as well go naked then since only armoured vehicles matter as if armoured vehicles don't have thier own ballistic ordinance rating/limits.

More like a bemused reaction as to why anyone would take issue to a suggestion that security agents would stand a better chance in an ambush if they had proper gear.

Check the thread. Someone has been going in and on about how my suggestion of better gear does not matter. I guess you made your contribution at some point.
