Sizzorkay:
So soldiers got killed in the same area they've had ambush in the past, and most of you here want to blame Buratia? Is he the commanding officer? Who lead these troops and how come they couldn't be smarter in how they carry out their operation? The fact that they failed to adapt and neutralize a trouble spot shows poor leadership at the ground level, Buratai isn't gonna tell these soldiers how to invade ambush or how to drive their convoy, space them etc, or use scout, especially since this wasn't the first incident .
You can remove Buratai today, and another ambush will happen with similar result.
Clueless commanders on the ground is the problem here.

It seems that unfortunately the Nigerian Army ran into a catastrophic ambush on the Maiduguri-Damboa road. I count around 26 NA dead.

Captures include: 26 T56/AKM/AR-F AKs, 3x W85, DSHkM, MG3, ~3x FN MAG, 100s of rnds of mixed ammo, 5+ Romanian PG-7VM w/ motors.

An Ambusher's aim is to wipe out the victim. The operational vehicles one enters an ambush with could be a matter of life and death. What ails the Hierarchy that they can't at least provide protected vehicles for High risk roads such as Damboa.

How true r these pictures

I'm 79% sure that ISWAP had full knowledge of troops movement. 26 soldiers in one fell swoop would probably require a hundred fully armed ragtag terrorists.

ISWAP would be foolish to commit so much men without full knowledge of what they might be up against. Again, knowing fully well that the NAF ISR platforms could easily spot hundreds of its (ISWAP) men in pickup trucks.

DMI should look into possible alien satellite frequencies being used to monitor troops movement within that region.
With the amount of low cost satellites hovering the space these days, nothing is impossible.

You never can tell, anything can happen, it may not necessarily mean the military will takeover they may just uproot those in power and handover to a civilianof their choosing or tacitly create a vacuum for another civilian to fill something similar to the coup that ousted Mugabe.

Tobiloba2407:


All that is needed is a major 2 or 3 weeks MAJOR sustained assault, with a objective of 5k bht Kia, full combined arms operation......sss, police, nscdc and others brought in, to do rear guard support....throw half of everything nigeria has into that front and go hunting.
We are at a stalemate, that will continue to drain us.....how long is it taking us to train the crew of the new equipment, I for one think our air force bombing is a waste of resource, I favour artillery to air force bombing....air force bombing should be used in coordination and in realtime with land troops assualt, we should invest In shells that can go 30 to 40km.....
If you askim me, i will bht are winning, because against all odds stacked against them, they are getting results every week.

Spot On. This enemy is very fluid and very underrated but equally potent, especially with their PR arm.

Those pictures, I believe were leaked to spite the military heirarchy for seemingly underreporting the casualty figures.

Tobiloba2407:
