The Vigilantes did and not the Army ..

Pls provide your source to have said Army did not do it but Vigilantes.

The truth is, many don't wish Nigeria well. If NA decides to down tools, many of us will swim to neighbouring countries.

Kudos to the Army!!!

How many con be Boko Haram demselves ... 2 Million? 5 Million?

Don't be surprised boko haram members runs into millions because it is fueled by ideology and that is why is hard to quench. They believe they are doing what is right for allah's sake and they keep getting new recruits who has been brain washed by their imam. Even America couldn't defeat Taliban and Al-queda because you keep killing them, they keep getting new members.

artillery guns and armaments? Come on let's be realistic. Co's I don't
believe the hunters are d ones shelling BH positns and manned military
hardwares to do justice to dis terrorists.I think it's high time we get
an objective news medium to report from d field as it happens...I just
hope it won't become the beheading dat Isis do to captured journalists

Even if the NA recaptures Mubi, they still need to step up their game and take monitoring more seriously. The army needs to recruit more. We are a nation of 170 million, we shouldn't have less than 1.7 million military personnel. At least give us 1 soldier to a hundred men in case of a war.

Plus must boko always attack first? Why isn't the army more offensive? This una country sef ...

Wikipedia puts our total military (navy, air force and the army) at 130 thousand active personnel, that means the army probably has less than 50k soldiers... food for thought!

Re: Nigerian Military Recaptures Mubi by Nobody: 9:24pm On Nov 13, 2014
Kudos, be spontaneous and recapture the rest of the villages there were seized.

P.S: credit should be given to people or other security outfits that helped or are willing to lend a helping hand to curb this menance that has bedeviled the country, be it a local vigilante outfit or hunters. Accepting their offer doesn't show a sign of weakness or incompetence on the part of government but not doing so speaks more than the latter.

Re: Nigerian Military Recaptures Mubi by major466(m): 9:44pm On Nov 13, 2014
The war against bokoharam is taking a different turn. There seem to be an ongoing effort by some negative powers to drive the impression that local hunters can fight Boko Haram more than the military. Their major aim is to give the impression that Jonathan's Army are Wussies while the Local Hunters (some may be boko haram agents) as great fighters and champions, using just bows and arrows with locally made rifles. Do you know see the fallacy of the accusations by the opposition that the Nigerian Army is ill equipped?
It's very surprising the way the opposition ridicule our soldiers, the same soldiers they may work with when the get to the center in 2090.

It's actually the hunters that captures mubi not the military as claimed by government Madia and nigerian army

Local hunters and civilian vigilante on Thursday liberated
Mubi in Adamawa state from the clutches of Boko Haram as several of the fanatics, including their leader, Abubakar Shekau, were killed and others chased out by the local hunters.
Subsequently, there was jubilation in Mubi town as
residents marched from street to street in the town chanting songs of victory to God over the recapture of their ancestral homes which had been under the control of the dreaded Boko Haram insurgents.
Feelers from Mubi revealed that the residents trooped out
to express gratitude to God and also show solidarity with the local hunters and the vigilante known as Civilian JTF who rescued them from the control of the Islamist extremists.
Residents said they were excited that their homes had
been liberated from the hands of the Boko Haram insurgents who have been chased out.
One of the residents from Mubi, Mallam Musa Bello, who
spoke to ThisDay through the phone revealed that most of the localhunters and Civilian JTF were mobilized from Gombe, Kano, Bauchi and Borno states by some top politicians in Adamawa state after perceiving that the state might be taken over by the insurgents if nothing was done.
Bello further added that over 30,000 local hunters and
Civilian JTF were mobilized for the fight against unwanted elements, adding that
the Emir of Mubi was the one that initiated the idea, seeing
that he had lost his kingdom to the insurgents.
Other reports from Mubi said that the hunters have
recaptured the
234 Army Battalion as well as other strategic security
formations in
the area which fell into the hands of the insurgents when
they took
over the town.
Residents reported that about five military Armoured
Personnel
Carriers (APC) and other war equipment were also
recovered from the
hands of insurgents.
Residents also disclosed that all the flags hoisted by the
insurgents
have been uprooted and replaced by Nigerian flags adding
that even
the Palace of the Emir of Mubi which has been converted
to the
spiritual headquarters of the insurgents have been
liberated from the
hands of the insurgents.
The residents stated the development had forced the
insurgents to
retreat into the bush as the hunters gave them a hot chase
toward
Sambisa forest.
Confirming the incident on Thursday in Yola, governor of
Adamawa
Sate, Bala James Ngilari said: "The insurgents have been
flushed out
of Mubi and are on the run,"
He noted that the success recorded in the fight against the
Boko
Haram insurgents is the handwork of God as he said: "God
is in this
business of security in Adamawa state. You know in the
last one week
or so, the government has decided to be working with the
vigilante
group "Yan Baka", local hunters and Civilian JTF. They
have been
working hand in hand with them.”
Checks revealed that the local hunters and Civilian JTF
will proceed
to other parts of the north east region still under the
control of the
insurgents. It was also revealed that the local hunters
operate with
magical powers and could easily identify where the
insurgents were
hiding.
Reports also revealed that every attempt made by Boko
Haram
insurgents during the battle to fire their guns on the local
hunters
was abortive as their mystic powers wouldn’t allow the
insurgents to
do so.
According to the report , the insurgents have no option
than to beat a
retreat into the bush. It added that that was how the
hunters were
chasing and slaughtering the insurgents in Mahia and
Mubi to Vintim
village, the hometown of the Chief Defence Staff ,CDS, Air
Marshal,
Alex Badeh .
The report also added the hometown of the CDS was also
liberated
from the hands of the insurgents by the local hunters and
Civilian
JTF.
