The Nigerian Army is considering setting up of a special force that will use motorcycles to check the activities of terrorists.
The new battalion, when established will complement efforts of the ground troops.
LEADERSHIP learnt that the Motorcycle Battalion will be a special unit out of the initiative of the army chief, Major General Tukur Buratai, in his efforts to wipe out Boko Haram within the shortest possible time.
LEADERSHIP further learnt that the new military high command brought up the idea as it had become evident that troops were finding it difficult to penetrate terrorists’ hideouts using military vehicles, especially in the dreaded Sambisa Forest.
Reports point that it is difficult pursuing the terrorists in some parts of the North East as a result of the topography being a muddy area and this hinders the movement of the troops.
The troops in this contemplated motorcycle unit would be selected for training in the use of customized bikes and they will now be playing complementary roles to the ground troops.
The motorcycle battalion is usually a quick-fix corps of soldiers who perform all the duties of a reconnaissance battalion. It is an assault battalion, which seeks out an enemy soft spot and launches attacks.
The Germans, Britons and Americans have dedicated motorcycle battalion corps that backstop their regular armies.
Historically, motorcycle battalions included an armored car company and several companies of motorcycle infantry. The motorcycle infantry companies were organized as assault squads around several motorcycles with sidecars that carried lethal weapons during the World War II.
At this time of the year (rainy season), the topography of the North East is heavily muddy and impassable for heavy vehicles.
After his visit to Yobe, Adamawa and Borno states during the Sallah break, the COAS sieved from the various briefings by the relevant commanders that an ingenious move had to be made to demobilize the insurgents who bomb crowded markets and towns and race back to the forests.
LEADERSHIP reports that the emergence of President Buhari has sent strong signals to the terrorists that their days are numbered.
In his recent US trip, the president was promised a lot of support and assistance from the Obama administration, and with the new service chiefs in place, our source disclosed that the end of terrorism is now in sight.
“President Buhari has received tremendous support from President Barack Obama as witnessed in his official trip to the United States and you would recall that prior to the trip, the president had replaced the service chiefs he inherited from former President Goodluck Jonathan with a view of repositioning the military for what is regarded as the last phase of the battle.”
For armies struggling to find sufficient motor transport, the motorcycle battalion provides a cheap fix to making units mobile.http://leadership.ng/news/449954/war-on-terror-army-to-establish-motorcycle-battalion

more money for defence contractors.....

.

BH changed their tactics from serial open seizure of territories with long convoys, to lone wolf guerrilla styled attacks targeting soft spots.

It then makes sense that the Army also alter the strategy accordingly by deploying motorcycles which would be able to penetrate the hideouts where these instruments of terror are assembled, so as to counter the terror they are creating with their semi-coordinated suicide bombing attacks.

Carry on General 'Bura-talk true'....make sure you quick-march those haramic cretins to their elusive virgins since they're now managing the earthly ones.

Good Idea!!!

In GOD we trust

In PMB/VP we trust.

In T.Y Buratai we trust
