SamuelAnyawu:It doesn't even make sense,how the hell do these people still drive around in convoy in a local government that is crawling with thousands of soldiers and other security forces?, So bold to march straight to the gate of a barrack and taunt the military without getting wasted instantly?. Sometimes,I don't want to believe what I am hearing. 2 Likes |

The war will never end because of the mentality of the majority of contributors here. They are contented with posting the same lame pictures they've been posting for 5 year's while the country is tearing apart. God help you if you dare make any attempt to discuss the issue, they will say take the issue to Abuja and don't derail. The lethargic attitude of the government to the security of lives and properties borders on criminal. Boko Haram now stands shoulder to shoulder with the Nigerian army, attacking well fortified military bases at will , the military is stretched too thin to near breaking point..and because the violence and death is localized only in the northeast nobody cares, to them.its fantasy. Soon they will graduate from attacking bases to encroaching down south and the government's approach to the war will still not change. This country is at the precipes of falling off the cliff. By the time we experience first hand the consequence of those at the helm of affairs turning the war into a multi billion dollar enterprise, when herdesmen grow in sufficient numbers to start their massacre down south, when bombs are exploding, people getting kidnapped and the nation descend into full blown civil war with sokdiers deserting an mass and a compilsory military draft instituted, then we will know how ridiculous it was for us to make excuses for the corruption just so we can continue looking at pictures. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

S3BViking: You mean like before 2015? We don't disagree with you as such SLBMS, it is just that we have ranted over the years and it got us nowhere. When you were probably still in primary school, we were ranting and even on Beegeagles blog on what was needed etc. What happened, nada. I just hope you don't suffer from high blood pressure. This is why we just post and view in the hope that something will happen eventually but we can't influence anything or anybody via this forum. 4 Likes |

Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by EVarn(m): 10:22am On Aug 08, 2019 |
Litmus:Yes, it's all over the news. The police is claiming that the army opened fire and released the suspect,while the army is claiming the police fired first and refused to identify themselves. There is even a video where the butchered police agents were dragged around like sacks of meat and heaped into an army Hilux,with the suspect nowhere to be found. I am still trying to understand what is going on. |

EVarn: You think there will be a Coup d'état? It's because, unless we’re talking rampant banditry (crooks disguised as military and police etc) we’re looking at breakdown in military and policing and a helpless presidency. I’m finding it difficult to envisage a full term here, something is going to give (military, government or country) if things are as bad as media is feeding us. Major heads will have to roll if we are to avert disaster, sorry, catastrophe, disaster is exhausted- Buratai or president need to consider their position it’s the Statesman thing do for the sake of the Nation and nascent democracy ..or am I panicking out of ignorance? 1 Like |

EVarn:what humongous sum? $13.8m? while wondering you can check what the FPF of the US DoE does |
Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by EVarn(m): 12:50pm On Aug 08, 2019 |
Odunayaw:Yes, $31.8m(about N5billion) budgeted for "nuclear equipments" by an agency that has nothing to do with Nigeria's atomic energy network, is indeed a humongous sum. I assume you are aware that, in Nigeria, we generally don't pluck money from trees, neither does Aso rock possess a wardrobe filled with voodoo money. How exactly does the duties of the US profor tally with the NSCDC. I will direct you to read up on the Act that sets up the NSCDC,so as to be better informed about their duties. If at all there is any plan to purchase equipments for the treatment of nuclear waste(which like I said earlier,cannot be the case),it would be the job of NAEC. 1 Like |

EVarn:Who says they have nothing to do with the Atomic Energy network? The Minister of Interior? If you'd take your advice * Assist in the maintenance of peace and order and in the protection and rescuing of the Civil population during the period of emergency. Still asking what the FPF have to do with the above? Lastly, you're the only one talking about WASTE TREATMENT! |
Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by EVarn(m): 4:12pm On Aug 08, 2019 |
Odunayaw:Okay, let's get this straight: 1. NSCDC has nothing to do directly with Nigeria's atomic energy network, when it comes to protection of nuclear materials, the Nigeria Nuclear Regulatory Authority(NNRA) has an elite team in conjunction with the Nigerian Police Special Intelligence Unit (SIU), similar to that US profor you have been singing about. 2. The newspaper article isn't even talking about NSCDC doing the work of the NNRA(or similar to the FPF), it clearly stated that the agency is planning to acquire "nuclear equipments". When has it been the duty of the NSCDC to procure nuclear related equipments?. 3. When it comes to protection of the civilian population and public infrastructures,the NPF,NSCDC,DSS,and even military are equally involved. 4. You were the first to talk about "nuclear waste management" in your OP, thus I am replying based on your initial comment. 3 Likes 1 Share |

EVarn:I didn't even know of point 1 hence I assumed that's what they meant Blanket tags like 'nuclear equipment' are either of two things; (1) Bland Journalism (2) cover for sensitive projects. U see this in NiA/DIA budget breakdowns too Yes all parties are involved but naturally it should fall in the purview of the MoI. I talked about "decon training & nuclear waste mgt" and NOT "nuclear waste treatment Anyway, have learnt something new |

PRESS RELEASE The attention of the Army Headquarters has been drawn to the Press Release by DCP FRANK MBA FORCE PUBLIC RELATIONS OFFICER FORCE HEADQUARTERS ABUJA Ref No. CZ.5300/FPRD/FHQ/ABJ/VOL.2/68 Date: 7th August, 2019 on the unfortunate incident that occurred on the 6th of August 2019 in which troops of 93 Battalion Nigerian Army Takum pursued and exchanged fire with some suspected Kidnappers who indeed turned out to be an Intelligence Response Team from the Police Force Headquarters Abuja on a covert assignment from Abuja resulting in the death and injury of some members of the Team. On the 6th of August 2019, the said Nigerian Army troops, while responding to a distressed call to rescue a kidnapped victim exchanged fire with the suspected kidnappers along Ibi-Wukari Road in Taraba State. The suspected kidnappers numbering about ten (10) and driving in a white bus with Reg No LAGOS MUS 564 EU refused to stop when they were halted by troops at three consecutive check points. The flagrant refusal of the suspected kidnappers to stop at the three checkpoints prompted a hot pursuit of the fleeing suspects by the troops. It was in this process that the suspected kidnappers who were obviously armed opened fire at the troops sporadicaly thus prompting them to return fire. In the resultant fire fight, four (4) suspects were shot and died on the spot while four (4) others sustained various degrees of gunshot wounds and 2 others reportedly missing. It was only after this avoidable outcome that one of the wounded suspects disclosed the fact that they were indeed Policemen dispatched from Nigerian Police, Force Headquarters, Abuja for a covert assignment. However, following inquiries from a Police Station officer who was asked by the commander of the Army troops whether he was aware of any Nigerian Police team being dispatched to operate in the LGA, the Divisional Police Officer of Ibi Police Division responded that he was not informed about any operation by the Nigerian Police Force Headquarters thus lending credence to the distressed call from members of the community that the suspects who turned out to be Policemen on a covert mission were rather suspected kidnappers. This incident is indeed quite unfortunate and could have been avoided through proper coordination and liaison as the Nigerian Police Force are partners in the fight against crimes such as kidnapping amongst myriads of other internal security threats confronting our nation of which the Nigerian Police is the lead Agency. In order to avert future occurrences of this nature, the Army Headquarters and the Force Headquarters of the Nigerian Police have agreed to constitute a Joint lnvestigation Panel to be headed by the Deputy Inspector General of Police in charge of Criminal Investigation Department, DIG Mike Ogbizi, to jointly investigate and report on the true circumstances surrounding the unfortunate incident. Therefore, until the Joint Investigation Panel concludes and submits its report, it will be premature to officially conclude and speak on the real circumstances that caused this unfortunate but very avoidable unfortunate incident.

Odunayaw:Good we now understand each other. You will recall that one of the points I made initially is that this could all be a result of bland journalism. Perhaps,the official was referring to specialized operational items which the journalist didn't understand. Or maybe it's all an attempt to siphon money. It's a tactic civil servants are particularly fond of, though this one is rather over the top. Anyway, you may be right on your point 2. |
Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by EVarn(m): 6:39pm On Aug 08, 2019 |
bidexiii:Very regrettable indeed. There should be a joint statement between the police and the army to explain what actually happened. |
