Read the article carefully. This is leadership failure. A battalion of 300men is a degradation of the usual Nigerian Army manning levels. Where did all the others go?. I would like an immediate retirement of Badeh. The Chief of Army Staff should also be invited to a one on one interview with the President. They are destroying the fabric of the Nigerian military. We have never had it so bad. When you keep a battalion of just 300 men, you better have the airforce on standby with good close air support combat jets ready to intervene when the men are overmatched but this was not provided. Shame on the clueless Commander In Chief. Shame on Badeh and shame on Minimah.

This insurgency is more political than ideological. Have you wondered why the spate of attacks has increased since Jonathan's declaration of interest in the 2015 race? There is an uncanning and persistent attempt to discredit his leadership. Unfortunately the old foool is too dull and stupppid to sanitize the nation's security apparatus. His level of corruption is unprecedented. This guy Jonathan is not pretending, he is not scheming anything, he has no hidden solution or strategy with regards to our current problems in Nigeria. What he has done in the last four years is exactly what he will reproduce in a lifetime. The guy is downright clueless! How can you sensibly explain this recurrent embarassment of our gallant military personel. You want to blame that on the opposition? You want to blame the low morale of our military and their old fashioned ammunition on the opposition? You think the opposition is responsible for our porous borders? You honestly believe the huge sums veted on security gets stolen by the opposition? Granted: terrorism is often difficult to quash, but no country has suffered such monumental embarassment of its military in open battle by riff raffs like boko haram. When Yar adua was president, boko haram felt the full weight of a well motivated nigerian army. They were defeated in one decisive swing in the week of 17th january 2009. It will be 2 years of silence before they rear their head again. If the tempo was maintained, boko haram would have been history. I know interests differ and some peeps would dump their votes for him again, they must however realise that even their fathers at home could better Nigeria's cause more than this clueless drunkard!

Politicians are stealing billion,soldiers are paid peanuts,yet you want them to die for such a kangaroo reublic like Nigeria?

We need to wake up and face reality-corruption and indicipline is spreading through all spheres of our national life.

I wonder why the presidency halted the offensive when we had the upper hand and started throwing negotiations in our faces-its either boko haram fooled our military,which is hard to believe or something really evil and sinister is going on.

Bro, there is a big difference tracking someone in another territory(country).
The BH boys are in our own country..not the same scenario at all..

“They enjoy making promises they cannot keep. You have heard promises about security, not so? Promises made four years ago. But, we handed them the Federal Republic of Nigeria, with all its components parts intact and we are back four years after with some parts of Nigeria already taken away from them and they are saying the next four years will be better.”

nairalandist:
Perhaps the NA is short of soldiers. They need to attack with more aggression. Whatever happened to drones and remote surveillance? Perhaps the army chiefs themselves are a little outdated.

Hero10001:
Drones and surveillance for where??!
Common binoculars, dem no get to talk of GPS.
The only thing weh dem get na potbelle, koboko and Ak-47.
Oga at the top don wolf the budget also sold the ammos and men to BH for cheap.
The question is;
1. Will BH stop if GMB be President?
2. If GMB sabi security, why him no wan help him people stop terrorism??
3. Abi, make all of us gather go beg Shekau for sambisa ni?!!
Something must be done, we need solutions fast.
Since BH don ransack the barrack, another bomb blast is looming and FG dey there dey look.
I wish it goes off "KaBoOOMM" in the DHQ, and Aso-villa instead of Schools, Parks, and Public places.
SMH..
