Immediately the news of secret burial of 105 soldiers came out, they have come to tell us that gej buried 28 soldiers secretly lol...
Even in d most peaceful parts of the country soldiers have gook ak 47s talkless of NE.
Gej tried to buy arms and was frustrated until u went tru d black market that brought about the SA issue on arms procurement.. he finally got some good weapons (@list we saw pictures of a few).. all d days of the ND militancy d military had good weapons but suddenly it has disappeared..
Buhari has been so uncomfortable about the "fake/non existing arms" that he travelled to Iran and 2 days after returning travelled to Malta to snap picture with the queen. Me I don tire to wail

The sooner the govt starts accepting responsibilities for some issues crippling the nation at the moment the better for them and all of us. We kip hearing blames on GEJ in particular for everything thing wrong with the country and I begin to ask, are we supposed to wait and call back GEJ to correct these wrongs or answer for them If the later is the answer why isn't he answering for them yet or why hasn't the govt made him answer for them yet? For those that will want to claim the govt is still trying to build it's case against him/them, shouldn't d govt do dat thoroughly with tym while trying to put in clear measures to right those wrongs? We kip hearing blames upon blames evry single day and yet no attempt whatsoever to make a case against the blamed and annoyingly no serious measures to alleviate the ills being suffered from the so-called wrongs. ... Na sitdon look we dey. Anyhow wey dem wan run am fine but Nigerians are tired of hearing these blames if it jus ends as word of mouth. ...

Trust that the story will be twisted to blame GEJ and reduced it to naira and kobo, to sustain the "corruption " song.

-They are not looking at an ethnic divided army who were not fighting due to sabotage.
-They are not looking at the bokoharam sympathetic elements in the army, sustaining bokoharam and sacrificing their colleagues in battle. The soldiers who shot at their commander did so because they were ambushed whilst following his command and some of them killed.

This people changed the story to no equipment to fight. How disgusting can it be.

-It is a wrong narrative to reduce everything to GEJ not providing arms. Everybody knows that GEJ have done everything possible to end bokoharam including amnesty, having a one on one with northern elders, increasing funding to the military, setting up state of emergency, in the region etc... Look if bokoharam was not political and an instrument used deliberately against GEJ, it would have ended... We can keep lying to ourselves for partisan reasons.

-Is it not the same elements that said GEJ was killing their people? That Ihejirika was on ethnic cleansing?, that a fight against bokoharam is war against the North?

I can go on and on.. The fact remains that bokoharam will soon end, as it's purpose is no longer needed.

The protagonists are looking for a systematic way to end it without outcry or too much suspicion. Hence, the strong move to change the narrative. I've advised that we monitor the end of bokoharam in Nigeria and a postmortem be done on this bokoharam. It can't just end like that, Without serious answers given to questions.

I have looked at this bokoharam issue and have concluded that only God almighty, will judge this matter.

The dullard is just playing games with all these so called probes. How long will it take a panel to probe The military? Why is it taking forever to probe and prosecute all those involved in any shady deals ? The dullard has been probing since may 29 and till today November 28,he is still probing ? All these so called probe shouldn't take more than 3 months if truly there is no ulterior motive behind them

maupe:
So the 105 dead soldiers were killed due to the corruption and sleeze of the GEJ government. This government needs to start taking responsibility for its mistakes, instead of always looking for who to pass the bulk to.

just a way to hide the 105 soldiers murdered brutally.......

And what happened to 105 soldiers,the warri battalion,under PMB?

They were also buried secretly. Our leaders playing with the lives of soldiers as if they are not human with families too.

this govt always trying to distract us from their failures . gej is no more in power they better wake up

Rest in peace gallant heroes. It is well with your families.
I watched a boko haram video,saw how they took over a barracks and two young soldiers running for their dear lives,obviously they were tired because they were falling over the rocks,that night I couldn't sleep because I know they were caught and butchered
So sad....
If you call them cowards,pls pick up the form and go fight for your country...or you are from a generation of cowards!

calebo101:

You like train your children to think like you. It's your cup of tea. I still maintain that you're destroyed. Anger and hatred has eaten deep into you it now affects your reasoning capability.

,And u are condemned even here on earth for supporting evil and he that perpetuated it.Nauseating piece of filth like u!!

CyberWolf:
Telling the zombies what they wanna hear and of course, they never fail to disappoint.

Trust me, you're the zombie here.

In as much as we condemn the looting of funds meant for procurement of arms, i think the govt of the day is just trying too hard to prop public support for the prosecution of the former NSA and the military attaches.
Why did they have to wait this long before informing us that the special forces have lost men in the field.

All i see is cheap propaganda on the part of this govt. Looking for any means to garner public support for its political actions.
I just hope the govt knows that the people dont care and wont be moved by all these propaganda being employed as a tool for excuse instead of kickstarting the wheel of economic progress.

APC is definitely running out of anti PDP propaganda. The people are already bored and desire the change they asked for.

NOBLEDANDY:
They will always keep blaming Gej even outta power...

Besides what about the statement that a fight against bokoharam is a fight against the north...
Una no hearam?!

Don't mind them. 7 months in power they are still blaming the past government. Goats in human form.

NOBLEDANDY:
No wahala keep the blames coming...
Besides am not pro Jonathan nor pro PDP.
But APC should try and wake up to their responsibility that's the much reason they were voted in power to correct the wrongs of the PDP.
If they continue like this, Nigerians will be fed up one day with all this blame Blame stuff hitting the polity.

you are pro Jonathan and Pro PDP. The truth needs to be told Jonathan allowed Bokoharam to become what they are today due to his complacency, every attack every death and every tear shed due to BH's attack is a reminder of the Incompetence and corruption that characterized the Jonathan's administration

[s][[s]quote author=vickylinco post=40491411]28 of 36 Nigerian elite officers killed in battlefield

FROM MOLLY KILETE, ABUJA

Till date, not many Nigerians un­derstood why President Muham­madu Buhari is determined to get all those linked to the alleged $2 billion arms purchase fraud under former President Goodluck Jonathan punished.

Saturday Sun can authoritatively reveal that apart from his quest to recover all the billions that had been allegedly stolen from the nation’s treasury in recent years so as to get enough money to fund his government’s lofty programmes, the Commander-in-Chief is seriously embittered over a recent invento­ry of military operations against Boko Haram insurgents in the North-East which revealed that majority of the multi-million dollar-trained officers of the nation’s special forces have been killed in battle fronts between Jan­uary and now due to lack of fighting tools. Saturday Sun had exclusively reported the deployment of the Special Forces battalion in its May 8 edition.

It was reliably gathered that out of the 36 young officers drawn from the three arms of the Nigerian Armed Forces to form the spe­cial elite force, 28 of them have been lost to the battle in the North-East before the change of government on May 29. The Special Forc­es trained in Pakistan and other tough terrains across the world are based in Makurdi, Benue Sstate, from where “they were drafted to lead battles against ruthless Boko Haram insur­gents without providing them with fighting tools and military equipment at a time mil­lions of dollars were taken out of the treasury purportedly to buy arms and ammunition.”

As a retired Army General, a former mili­tary Head of State and now Commander-in- Chief of the Armed Forces, it was further learnt that Buhari became furious when he received briefings on how the nation lost its toughest fighters “in controversial circum­stances and this was one of the major fac­tors that prompted him to set up the probe panel in the office of the NSA, Gen. Baba­gana Monguno to establish what happened to funds approved for the purchase of arms for the Armed Forces under the immediate past NSA, Sambo Dasuki”, a source well familiar with the development told Saturday Sun.

Saturday Sun also gathered that to avoid public outcry, the military leadership under former President Goodluck Jonathan had or­dered secret burial for the killed officers who were mostly between the ranks of Captain and Major all based at the 72 Special Forces Battalion barracks, Makurdi. The Special Forces Commander, Colonel Abiodun Lag­baja and seven others were the only lucky survivors. Names of the lost officers are pres­ently displayed on a plaque at the restricted area in the battalion’s office in the Benue State capital.

Our source, however, pleaded that the names of the officers should not be published “in honour of the nation’s fallen heroes, their families and in order not to dignify blood-thirsty terrorists who killed the officers.”

“That’s what we get when our fine and well trained officers are pushed to hot spots with no tools by leaders who steal funds meant for our military platforms. It’s a terrible rape”, an angry three star Army General told Saturday Sun. Attempts to get official reaction from the military authorities failed but a senior officer at the Army headquarters who is not allowed to speak officially assured: “Notwithstanding the losses we have suffered in the recent past, our troops are doing well now and very soon the insurgency will end.”

Just last week, there were reports that about 105 soldiers of the 157 Battalion, in­cluding their commanding officer, were feared killed or missing after they came un­der intense attack from Boko Haram insur­gents at Gudunbali, Borno State. The mili­tary has, however, assured that the missing soldiers had since returned to their base.

While the doubt on military’s response was yet to clear, another report emerged on Tuesday that the Nigerian Army at the mili­tary cemetery in Maiduguri secretly buried the bodies of about 105 soldiers killed by Boko Haram insurgents.

The report said the decomposed bodies of the men who were killed in an encoun­ter with the terrorists last week Wednesday were brought to Maiduguri Monday evening in body bags. Military spokesman, Colonel Tukur Ismail Gusau had confirmed that in­surgents attacked the location of 157 Bat­talion last Wednesday, but they were “subse­quently repelled by the gallant troops of the unit.” He added that the unit’s commanding officer remained in contact with his Brigade Commander.

Usman, who described the report of the missing soldiers as a smear campaign against the Nigerian military, however, stated that the burial that took place was not that of the purported 105 dead or missing soldiers.

The alarming casualty in the military cou­pled with hundreds of petitions over the sup­ply of inferior and substandard weapons to the military by the previous administration has in the past weeks made President Buhari [/s]

[size=18pt]RUBBISH!!! TRASH!!! LIES!!! STORY!!! STORY!!! STORY!!![/size]
Please, tell us something new, not this tale by moonlight. December is here, with failure is staring them on the face, they want to change their promises with distractions.
Boko Ham was already defeated before elections took place in all polling units in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe, suicide bombing were already a thing of the past. You failed to keep the momentum, lost ground to Boko Haram and now whinning.
Femi Adesina is a bad journalist self for this crap.

NEVER AGAIN!!!

doctokwus:
GEJ in a sane society shud not be a freeman.He shud at least be under house arrest by now awaiting arraignment .
See how his love of corruption cost this nation her best men.It shall not be well with him and the ghosts of these officers will continue tormenting his dreams.

Why is d mumu dullard not makin d society sane? Or is it GEJ's fault dat he is also incompetent?

Anybody reading dat report will knw it's a clumsy attempt to play d blame game.

Buhari is currently clueless n senseless n I tink Dats y he is travelling lookin for his senses n leaving ur sorry as5 at d mercy of bh, armrobbers n fulani terrorist.

calebo101:

May your children never grow to become like you. As it stands now you're completely finished. A matured man seeing Jonathan in his dreams everyday. Nor go die premature death o

Last time I checked, Jonathan celebrated his birthday and the birth of his grand child. That's after returning from engagements bestowed on him by commonwealth. Like I talk, try make your children nor turn up like you. You're totally destroyed.

Talking about sane countries, in a sane country nobody brings back their ancestors to rule them. Talk of an illiterate ancestor .

Of course, in a sane country, their progeny are left to ruin them...

AlPeter:
you are pro Jonathan and Pro PDP. The truth needs to be told Jonathan allowed Bokoharam to become what they are today due to his complacency, every attack every death and every tear shed due to BH's attack is a reminder of the Incompetence and corruption that characterized the Jonathan's administration

OK you are now forcing pro Jonathan and pro PDP on me...wtf?!?!

Anyways keep on blaming... Until you are tired...
APC was there to fix everything not blaming blaming stories...
They should learn to take responsibilities and kick the ground running.

abouzaid:
in a sane country, illiterates without certificates would be in jail for perjury. this article is a smear campaign on the Jonathan regime in order to make Nigerians forget their pressing problems. if they have evidence that anybody embezzled funds, they should take the person to court and stop all these newspaper propaganda. gej said that buhari did not even buy a single rifle in his first regime and buhari has not denied it. six months into buhari second regime and he's yet to buy a single weapon for the army.

Their antics no longer work...
People are fed up
