Boko Haram: Buhari berates military


•Nigerians must live within income, he says

FROM NOAH EBIJE, KADUNA

President-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari has expressed displeasure over what he described as the military’s inability to secure the lives and property.

Buhari said his administration will maintain prudence by ensuring that people live within their means.
He spoke in Kaduna yesterday when members of the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) visited him, noting that his government will promote fiscal discipline and tackle insecurity, unemployment and corruption.

Buhari, who received the delegation behind closed-doors, lamented that, “the military has never been so incapacitated like now, It is a shame that the military cannot secure 14 local governments out of the 774 in the country.
According to the President-elect, what is more worrisome is the fact that the military had to rely on South African machinery before it could gain recent success in the war against Boko Haram.
He said: “My administration will concentrate on three major areas on assumption of office these are insecurity, economy, unemployment and corruption. We will ensure we nip the insecurity in the bud.”

“The Nigeria Army could not do small thing, they have to bring in South African machinery to enable them record the recent gains in the North East,” the Buhari said.
The morale of the security forces will be raised. The military is incapacitated; it is a shame that the military cannot secure 14 out of 774 local governments.
“I don’t know how many of you know this. I got to know about it few days ago that the recent game in the North-East was because South African mercenary were used.”
Buhari also assured that, the incoming administration will pay more attention to the needs of the ‎ thousands of people displaced by the Boko Haram insurgency in the North-East.

Speaking on governance, the President-elect said his administration will ensure that every Nigerian lives within his earning, adding that, “a situation where people live above their earnings will not be tolerated. “The President-elect said multi-party system was the best form of government in which elected leaders were made to be accountable to their people. “In this system people will be forced to perform because if they don’t, they will be voted out.”

Earlier, ACF Chairman, Ibrahim Ahmadu Coomassie, told Buhari about the major problems facing Nigerians of recent.

“The level of decay, the collapse of our moral values and level of corruption, crime, unemployment, impoverishment of the citizenry in general and our rural populace in particular, and the near disregard for human life have never been manifested as in the last six years,” he said.
According to him, the North-eastern region was devastated by Boko Haram while energy crisis had continued to destabilize economic growth and development.
He said that the current arrangement whereby the positions of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) and the Head of Service of the Federation (HOSF) were regarded as superior to ministers in hierarchy was “against the principle of accountability in governance.”

Una girlfriend oby ezekwesili don talk all this things before ok i've an idea just let her divorce her husband then u can marry her you two have similar interests

Never stepped near a military school but even I can do better than many of these peppersoup generals

1 public buildings are not protected

2 military FOP( forward operating bases) are wrongly located( defensible positions)

3 even in the right locations, the FOB's are not fortified. ( there is a video on YouTube in which the terrorists were shooting at our routing soldiers.
Alas there was a hill behind that Base where armo could have been stored and around which a kill zone could have been established. The armo taken by the terrorists would have been enough for the soldiers to hold out. )

4 in terms of equipment, the soldiers lack superiority. The infantry have the same gun range ( ak47) as the terrorists . therefore, the kill ratio is likely to be close.

5 the Nigerian army strategy is reactive rather than dictating the battle.( special operations)

6 not deploying overwhelming force and power. Think about 4 battle groups with 80 tank each in arrow formation thrusting right in the heart of terror army

7 not controlling the battle field

I can go on and on
