Nigerian Soldier Reveals That Bandits Evaded US Airstrike by babydioku(op): 7:07am On Dec 29, 2025
Nigerian soldier Reveals that bandits evaded US airstrike in Sokoto after they were informed about the strike a day before it took place

His words …

“I might say some things in this video that might sound unbelievable to some people, but I will not be here to risk my life and that of my family to come and make certain claims just for likes and views and that will do nothing for me.

Quite alright the US strike some part of Sokoto, but I’m telling you right now that the USA will not make that mistake of striking places where there is no targets. Even one person was wounded no day because there was nobody there. Why? Definitely the U.S.A. will not strike Nigeria without some go-ahead.

So most politicians from Nigeria are aware of the airstrike. But guess what? Let me shock you. Do you know that? That particular place is… Where U.S. strike, bandits were actually there. But they moved out on the 24th.

How dey take no, say something like that wan happen. I’ll take you back again. The U.S. will not strike without the go ahead. Some Nigerian politicians, they are aware of the airstrike.

The bandits, they were supposed to be there, they moved out on the 24th. U.S. strike empty places. Now, how I take notice if these people did it before and they moved out on the 24th? There are places in that whole area where they strike. There are places, before you get to that place, you must pass certain checkpoints. People saw them leaving. I will not even tell you who did those checkpoints. But people saw them leaving on the 24th.m

what do you want to achieve with this? not all are gullible like you think, for your info. who is source of Intel? you thought this game is a cruise ship?

do you think the US would strike blindly? operation like this are kept to a very close circle and very discreet. if there is leakage mean the CDS, COAS, the CAS, CNS, minister of Defense, and other security chiefs would be indicted even some insider within the presidency.

an airstrike isn't a political funfair that you sharing the info within the political circle.

another thing is US don't strike blind, last minute reconnaissance is carried out to be sure of their target.

again, Nigeria wasn't carrying out the airstrike, Nigerian government only gave approval for the operation. the US has been on surveillance long ago. as such they have their coordinates.

I don't want to go further than this.

Do you think US army are morons who will strike at empty target?

It was well planned and bandits are well encamped before launching the attack.

At first you said, FG was not aware, now you said the information leaked 24hrs earlier and bandits left.
The sad truth some of you are sad that this terrorism war is being progressive won
Re: Nigerian Soldier Reveals That Bandits Evaded US Airstrike by SeeWahala: 8:08am On Dec 29, 2025
Mschew undecided as if we were expecting just only one single USA bombardment to do the job of eliminating the entire terrorists network in Nigeria undecided

Of course there will be more AND MORE bombardments and airstrikes to come 🤗 any bandits that dodged the former one won't always be lucky going forward grin

Up USA cheesy down tilumbu's APCs terrorists regime angry
Re: Nigerian Soldier Reveals That Bandits Evaded US Airstrike by Fejoku: 8:09am On Dec 29, 2025
As long as the US informs the Nigerian government under Tinubu or any APC person, the terrorists will get the information before the missiles are released. Of course, the US will have eyes of the location to know if they did any damage or not. Once they've established that some how, the terrorists begin to leave after they've alerted the Nigerian government about an imminent strike, they'll confirm our accusations of government collusion with the terrorists. Thereafter, they'll have to take the necessary initiative to ensure their expensive missiles aren't wasted

Look at the type of understanding a soldier has. He is saying the United States military used two-day-old intelligence operations to attack the insurgents.
Re: Nigerian Soldier Reveals That Bandits Evaded US Airstrike by Yankee101: 8:50am On Dec 29, 2025
You have no idea how airstikes work
You don’t just shoot missiles with old intel, especially for active mobile targets. You either use live satellite feeds or overhead drones to monitor real time movement before ordering a strike

Google or watch any US situation room videos on YouTube to give you an idea

He thinks it’s the usual way the Nigerian military operates

The area is between Niger and sokoto and there’s a clearance operation ongoing now
Dozens are dead
The area has not network
You’ll see videos and pictures within days

Even arise tv is near there already and they’ve confirmed casualties

Re: Nigerian Soldier Reveals That Bandits Evaded US Airstrike by DomPerignon: 9:11am On Dec 29, 2025
Horse shit as usual from a phantom source.

How ordinary soja wan know all these crap.

Anytime US is carrying out a missile strike there will be a reconnaissance drone monitoring over the target.

Even the missiles have live feed video links to mission control.

AWAC birds will be up in the air providing real time 5G/6G guidance and comms links.

Tomohawk missiles don't grow on trees. One is estimated to cost up to $2million a pop.

Other launch logistics such as coupling the fuel system and prepping the aerial and satellite based guidance systems that will involve drones , AWACs and in some cases even a manned aircraft to assess a strike , cost money.

The strikes involved over a dozen of these Tomohawk missiles and covered several locations so there will be several other birds in the sky constantly sending info back to mission control and where they see a target has moved , why will they continue to launch the attack ?

Makes no fcking sense.

The author of this nonsense propaganda were simply trying to lay an allegation that the Nigerian govt at the highest security clearance level are feeding the bandits with information before a strike.

This is typical IPOB.


They thought the Americans will coke guns blazing and invade Nigeria with boots on the ground, set up a base in Portharcourt from were they will come and dash them Biafra with SS as the icing


Now why will the US even want to negotiate with you when SS can do same without you who don't own their land and oil.

The storm that is coming for you IPOB traitors ......

Don't mind them.

They now want to accuse the govt of aiding the terrorist because Trump.did not come and invade Nigeria and give them their Biafra with SS annexed.

See my other post above.

Conspiracy theory, the Sokoto bomb that didn't not killed was used to pass message. The bomb has fulfilled its purposes.

The Government that paid ransom for the recent kidnapped wasn't foolish otherwise this terrorists would use those children as shield
Re: Nigerian Soldier Reveals That Bandits Evaded US Airstrike by Jakumo(m):
A soldier ought to be more aware than most about how artillery shells, bombs, and missiles wreak their damage upon detonation. The shrapnel payload that flies outward when a hand grenade explodes, for example, is not ASSURED to hit every person within the blast radius of that grenade that is standard issue for soldiers heading into front-line battle.

It is therefore perfectly normal that Nigerian military personnel posted near the northern Nigerian locations where missiles landed on Christmas night would have witnessed panicked terrorists fleeing in disarray from the target area, but perhaps in numerical strength that ruled out direct confrontation for the observing federal troops.

What those soldiers were unlikely to witness in real time would be the scene of industrial-scale carnage that was the aftermath of those warheads igniting to deadly effect on impact amid crowds of terrorist gunmen. The sea of roasted terrorist cadavers and meat chunks thereof, are certain to lie in areas BEHIND enemy lines where federal troops dare not venture without robust air support from orbiting helicopter gunships laying down suppressing fire in coordination with infantry maneuvers on the ground.

All the same, night-vision surveillance drone cameras will have taken multiple photographs of the bomb damage meat-grinder hells-scape in ultra-high resolution imagery to be studied by US Department of War analysts who may feel no obligation to share such imagery with the general public, due to tactical considerations in what is an ongoing pest eradication program being implemented to stabilize Nigeria before it is too late.

I just dont know why you are so sure this happened as you described. I mentioned that reporters have been to the scenes. I dont know what kind of magical clean up would not even leave a drop of blood behind.

Especially when we consider that it would be to the credit and triumph of both governments if they were able to say X amount of terrorists were eliminated. Yet they have not even claimed one.

MKO's middle name, "Kashimawo" remains prophetic decades after he exited the stage of life while on the cusp of actualizing his electoral victory in Nigeria's June 12th, 1993 presidential election.

Returning to the present, a rough tally of Uncle Sam's ordnance investment for northern Nigeria's vermin cull during the Christmas night 2025 commencement salvos, includes 12 Tomahawk missiles at $1.5M each that were launched from warships plying the Gulf of Guinea waters, and 16 Hellfire missiles launched by orbiting MQ9 Reaper drones, each valued at over $100K USD, for a grand total outlay of $19.6 MILLION dollars USD that was used to bless the deserving residents of terrorist camps in Sokoto state, on behalf of the Nigerian people, between midnight and 1.30am on Xmas night, December 26th, 2025.

No nation or corporate entity can walk away from such a massive investment without ensuring that tangible returns are recorded in the form of verifiable damage inflicted, and enemy combatants permanently demilitarized. The Christmas missile fest in Nigeria will likely pale in comparison to the follow-up operations that are certain to be in the pipeline for execution over a much wider area within days rather than weeks from today, December 29th 2025.

This is a very bad time to be a virgin-hunting Islamist terror hoodlum in Nigeria, as events soon to unfold are sure to illustrate in stark terms.

Of course Uncle Sam must recoup his gigantic cash outlay in the form of favorable pricing when purchasing Nigeria's highly prized Bonny Light crude petroleum oil, but then, there can be no more patriotic an application of a nation's resources, than to cover the cost of security for its citizens AND for visiting foreign investors.

Nigeria's petroleum crude oil exports, most recently quantified as 1.5 million barrels daily in December 2024, and priced at $77 per barrel that year, translates to a hard currency export earning of $117 million USD per day that is THEORETICALLY paid into Nigeria's federal coffers.

With this magnitude of hard currency income stream accruing on a daily basis, Nigeria can easily afford to set aside a few days worth of oil export proceeds as its anti-terror war-chest from which the US Department of War can be reimbursed to cover at least part of the dollar price tag of all missiles that are devoted to eradicating Islamist terrorists and other destructive vermin from Nigerian soil.
