africaken254:UNHCR had tried to take biometric data off all refugees before for the purpos of accountability, but the project was unsuccessful due to resistance.... but after the westgate attack and govt accusing the refugee camp and threatening to close them for some of the terrorist had used that channel, UNHCR was pressured and they had to forcefully take biometrics and share them with the government Qoute "The field assessments and exercise could further be easily made available to donors through the structured online system. Immediately a refugee is fingerprinted at an FDC when collecting food rations, their fingerprints appear at the three major offices for verification purposes. Refugees have expressed insecurity concerns about the exposure of their identity, between three major categories of Aid Agencies and the Government of Kenya. In the past, between 2007/8 the same system was tested in the camp but failed because refugees opposed the system due to concerns over security and identity. In 2013, the process has been made mandatory so that refugees are forced to go through the system. 1 Like |

Hello Guys, we have now reached the glorious finale of our TOP 15 photos ranking. There's been quite a number of shocks, however it has been quite entertaining all round. So without further ado, here are the glorious 15 |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 9:05pm On Sep 12, 2016 |
The 15th position goes to these 3 photos, quite a surprise to see a particular photo here, but contributors have chosen. Holding it down in last place are - Alpha jet - Nigerian Air Force - Nigeria - Malian Cop - Mali - Namibian HALO Commando - Namibia. I expected the Namibian Commando to do better, but with 2 likes, it's only good for a shared 15th position.

With 15, 14 & 13 taking, we are left with a few more shockers. I guess this next set of photos, especially the Inverted Gripen photo, reminds we a whole lot like Arsenal Football Club's performance in the UEFA Champions league. Always very glamorous, but they don't quite make it above the 2nd round. So, here they are, i refer to them as so much potential, but not quite up to the task - Inverted JAS-39 Gripen - South-Africa - Tunisian Commandos - Tunisia - Combat Exhausted Soldier - Nigeria

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 9:35pm On Sep 12, 2016 |
The following sets are tied for 9th place. They are a mix of beauty, humanity and gold old soldiering. Tied for 9th place are, - SA Navy Submarine - South-Africa - UPDF soldier shaking a child in Somalia - Uganda - Nigerian Soldier resting in his sleeping bag - Nigeria

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 9:46pm On Sep 12, 2016 |
In 7th place we got a Nigerian SF soldier providing well timed security with his 100 round PKM Nigerian Commando - Nigeria

At 6th position, and well deserved, it is so difficult to see African soldiers caught in combat. Photos of African troops in contact are as rare as blue diamond. So it came as a massive delight when i spotted this image. Beautiful image Nigerian troops in contact - Nigeria

This breathtaking photo of a South-Africa Orynx Helicopter proves it's class. If wars were fought by photographs alone, the South-Africans would win every war they take part in, even a Tug-of-war. Alas this isn't the case Orynx Helicopter - South-Africa 2 Likes

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 10:17pm On Sep 12, 2016 |
With 8 likes between them, these two Nigerian photographs are tied for 3rd place. The Oldies photograph question why wars should be fought when we could just smile and laugh and live in peace, while the 2015 photograph tries to explain why we must fight to keep that laughter, while every piece of lead must be expended to so that we can smile, it explains that there is a cost associated with the peace we enjoy. Oldies and modern Nigerian soldiers 3rd place - Nigeria

This is a surprising photo at number 2. I never expected to see this photo make it this far. However thread contributors in their wisdom provided this image with 9 likes, at a point, it was on the same number of likes as our number 1 image. This photo of a Navy Commando part of the Armed Forces Special Forces(AFSF) is very beautiful, also since the creation of the AFSF, this image reminds Nigerians, well me, of our favourite SBS. Glowing tributes of Navy commandos abound both in operational duty and training. This image simply carries on this glorious Navy tradition. Navy AFSF commando - Nigeria 2 Likes

The top photo, and probably the best photo that would be shared in this thread this year. It is the Holy-grail of military photographs, of the over 2,000 photographs shared in this thread this year, this photo completely and utterly beats the competition. In-fact there was no competition. It was this image on the one side and the others on the other side. Me against the world. Simply Magnificent JAS-39 Gripen is this year's photograph of the year. Gripen - South-Africa 9 Likes
