Convoy Of Nigerien Troops Entered Nigeria To Fetch Water – Military by Biodun556(op): 5:12am On Dec 02, 2025

The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) states that the convoy of Nigerien troops that entered Mazanya village in the Jibia Local Government Area of Katsina State crossed the border to fetch water.

The Nigerien troops entered Mazanya village on 29 November 2025 at approximately 1500 hours, a development that heightened tension in the border community.

A statement by the Director, Defence Media Operations, Major General Michael Onoja, stated that a convoy consisting of four gun trucks and one Toyota Jeep carrying Nigerien military officers and soldiers entered the Mazanya community to fetch water, a routine activity historically conducted by troops from the Niger Republic.

He, however, said that the massive size of the convoy raised concerns among local vigilante members in the community, who mistakenly perceived the movement as a potential hostile advance.

“This misunderstanding led to the vigilantes opening fire on the Nigerien troops,” he said.

Maj.-Gen. Onoja stated that following a dialogue between Nigerian security authorities and the Nigerien commander on the ground, the Nigerien troops proceeded to fetch the required water as intended and returned to their side of the border without further incident.

Trust me there are Nigerian Soldiers that are patriotic to the core cry

The problem is Chain of Command

If your Oga in military is compromised then you as a Soldier will be a cannon fodder.

That is what made me decide not to join
Because you literally MUST obey command

However If that command is coming from a compromised Oga that has soft spot for Jihadist.
Then he can easily send you to die like chicken in a co ordinated ambush.

Why would it be a joke? Nigeria had a fruitful relationship with their Nigerien counterpart especially in the area of security via the Multinational Joint Task Force until Tinubu came into power and fumbled it. This broken relationship can be listed as one of the several reasons behind the increasing deterioration in our fight against terror.

To fetch water 💧? As how? Can't they dig their own boreholes? With all the Cows and Uranuim, Cobalt and stuff the French mined in that country, they can't sink simple boreholes for them to get water?
