As far as I m concern, CNN has lost all sense of credibility, I don't pay attention to their reportage as regard the BH crisis in Nigeria

YOU ARE 'EMBARASSED' BECAUSE YOU ARE A FOOL WHO ALLOWS FOREIGN MEDIA TO BRAINWASH YOU AND MAKE YOU FEEL INFERIOR. THEY IGNORE/DOWNPLAY THEIR OWN PROBLEMS AND MAGNIFY YOURS. WAKE UP.



Could this be a repeat of the adventures of that Kenyan CNN reporter who went to the Niger delta... Jeff Koinage? ? How did they have contact? ?

Why should I compare apples and oranges is ISIS resident in France?

I gave an appropriate comparison with the middle east and you rejected it and chose France a first world nation and one of the richest and most equiped countires in the world in terms of military might why?

Besides do you know that these terrorists were meant to be under surveillance but they weren't.
They were in the US no flight list but they left the country to Syria and were not being monitored.

Even France with all its resources and experience could not keep up.

Did the French go berserk on the government apportioning blames for the obvious laxity, no. Rather they rallied round their government.

Terrorism is no child's play.

It is not a something you shout away with Sai Buhari.

The same worthless CNN never told you how their treacherous US refused selling weapons to Nigeria cool

The US don't owe us anything , I know US is an imperial nation they have interest in establishing a permanent base in Africa and would do anythibg to do so.

An inept president giving them a good avenue to do so is our main problem. The CIA would not outrightly show their face as BH sponsors but the FG not being serious makes their job easy.

It is true the average soldier is under equipped and the NA lack the adequate training or resources to pursue the insurgency correctly.
The NA did not see this coming , corruption and intentional under funding of armed forces by previous regimes means we have old equipment , most of the riffles have exceeded their service lifes are rusty and jamming , there is lack of air support and not enough IFV or tanks in a non conventional war.

Please open your eyes and engage your reasoning and look back upon previous conflicts lack of preparation and adequate planning and implmentation and poor morale losses war.

We all saw soldiers being ferried into the front line in open hilux trucks and open trucks it only takes one 7.62x39 cartridge to end a soldiers life which means one less gun , that would rip through any glass or regular metal and hurt the soldier on the inside of the vehicle, these guys are wearing armour plates with lower protection level.

If they were truely tamed we would not have the manage we have now. BH have grown in capacity since those days.

BH is a dynamic threat like non before willing to kill innocent citizens of all religious divides on the false premise of Islamic doctrine. They are willing to attack emirs and traditional rulers, they have become as dangerous drunkard wielding a weapon of mass destruction.
