This is interesting, either I’m suffering from dementia or I just never saw this.
So the navy trained army and Air Force guys ?
“The graduands drawn from the Nigerian Navy, Nigerian Air Force and Nigerian Army, were trained on Tactical Riverine Operation and Fast Rope Insertion and Extraction System (FRIES).”

Yes
When they say the SBS na alagbara dem no de joke
Well don't be ashamed yourself now..if you are not hungry for info on these people you tend to miss the snippets

Edit: The NAF guys give good accounts of themselves @ prom

bidexiii:
Note not all AFSF where in the N.E, when they came from the northeast Europe. Some served in other part of conflict area and some instructors but majority served in the N.E immediately they came from Europe.

They will be greatly missed for there experience, especially when the COAS has given the theatre commander a deadline to kill or capture shekau....

Speaking of that deadline,isn't it dumb 2 give such orders? Who does that if not Buratai? Now shekau will go under the ground and double his guards and be at alert 24/7. This kind of thing ought 2b done quietly. Besides,do they even have any clue where shekau is? Imagine the US army chief telling the commander in charge of operations in afghanistan,u must kill/capture the leader of the taliban in 30days.

bidexiii:
No, they are not the same .

The AFSF comprises of the army,navy,airforce and the police. And they where trained in Russia & Belarus.

The 72MSF where trained Here in Nigeria by a PMC.

The reason why @ jajesporeshenko made mentioned of the 72msf is that majority of the AFSF has spent over two active years on the frontline and they are due for rotation or to come home.

Now the 72msf would probably saddled with the task or role of the AFSF.

This will make the Sunday palm wine at their barracks a little more interesting. Always wondered why the army had two bases in my town.

It is dumb in a way.

Remember when GJ put out a time line for the defeat of BH during a TV interview?

Odunayaw:
Before we begin to confuse ourselves there are 3 known SF battalion in public space
• The 72nd SF Bn based at makurdi
• 111 SF bn
• 133 SF bn
Furthermore the 72 Strike force
As far as I know they are under NASOC which was established circa 2014
However because the DHQ refuses to comment on these warriors we r left to scavenge for information

in the theatre (both North central-North East) we've heard of the AH SG(Strike group)- I am led to bliv these is where the Rangers a'la 72MSF fall under
We've also heard of 133SF bn which had an IED experience of recently.
However we have the AFSF which is the Tri-service SF and they take their orders and missions from ONSA

I just wish they could make things clearer


N.B My submission isn't based on superior knowledge of the subject matter

Are the 72nd Strike force regarded as SF?

jakeporeshenko:
Spot on, however it’s important to note that the 72 existed before the few weeks of training by the PMC, look at is as conversion training, learning to fight a different type of enemy.

There are also men of Army headquarters strike group also know as AHQSG.

Yeap u r right.

There is something fishy about these dead line .

Don't let us forget that some few days almost a week plus, a BHT hide out or base was discovered in chad. And it was learnt that the ground forces has swept into action to surround the base.

From my own deduction, I since shekau is being surrounded and the army or defence HQ are 100% sure shekau is there, if not so ? Why would the COAS give an order to capture a ghost between 40days.

These is just my own assumption.

Odunayaw:
the matter wey de scratch my head be say

The ones that were in Pakistan r they new bloods-I mean newly selected fellows or they r picked from the SF brigade for additional training

One thing I know for sure us that these guys from Pakistan will be posted to front line either the northeast or the Niger Delta creeks. Or better still the lucky ones has instructors....

They are, have always been designated as an SF BN even before their deployment to the North East.

it seems everyone keeps their fine camouflage at home and take the old ones or the ones used during training to combat.
that has to be the only explanation because even peace keeping deployment are no longer with the green shade desert camouflage previously used.

These boys are not terrorists. As far as I'm concerned, they are also victims of Boko Haram and its madness.
