Before I continue my story , i just want you guys to Know that some officers dey woo female cadets, if you don't believe it's your business but if you're a cadet and you're caught pregnant then ofe! You're going to your fathers house, some people here do see officers as gods but the truth is that me I've already zeroed my mind, officers do live fake life, I mean army officers, they don't have anything, some get Sha but most junior officers don't have, they'll go and collect loan and buy ride and you'll think they have, I'll never advice my friend to join the army, you'll suffer like bastard, they'll use your blood, you'll regret it later on, join navy or naf and see shayi.






Back to the story, commandant banged fire alarm, he warned cadets about going to town, after the baba left, cadets that missed the fire alarm were told to come and cancel their names before 18:00, you that went before that 18:00 you'll be safe but if you didn't cancel your name that means you were not in the academy that day and you'll be charged.. I was among those that missed the fire alarm, i didn't miss the fire alarm because i was in town, i was inside academy, commandant banged the fire alarm immediately after A branch, that's @ 14:00, i left class that day by 13:00, i wanted to go and charge through bush, cadets love charging through, that day i was trying to hide so that my culprit won't see me, I had a 4th termer culprit, he's a sergeant so anytime i see him i do thin out(escape),that day i thined out so i could go follow bush because if you're caught using the normal route when it's not yet time then you'll buy job not only for yourself but your whole coursemates.... I got to my battalion before 14:00 but could not enter because cadets were still at A branch,I had to mark time(wait) but it took them long before they entered lines(hostel), i was surprised Sha, when i entered my room i asked my clonws what happened and he said commandant banged fire alarm. Oboy ! Fear catch me oo,but i heard that they said we should come and cancel our names before 18:00hrs, i just helped my pip, my future 1 fat star, carried my anti plant and started open dashing to meet RSM, in academy they have cadet RSM and battalion RSM, battalion RSM is an Oscar(soldier) rank of staff sergeant, cdt RSM works with him, fear no gree me to go and meet cdt RSM because he'll nearly take my life, cdt RSM is supposed to be a 5th termer but 5th termers were in jaji so it was 4th termers that had academy that time and your worst nightmare will be your immediate senior.








I met battalion RSM , we were like 9 that missed the fire alarm, battalion RSM wan kill us with swapap(tree branch), my battalion adjutant came, he carried hockey stick and started massaging us, he didn't give us shayi, CO too came, he told us to sit on out pot(head), he said he'll he's Ronaldo and he was going to kick our pot so that psg would sign him, baba started killing us oo, he was wearing boots oo, after everything Sha they handed us to 4th termers, those guys started watering us, they had skills, they were water benders, oboy! See as man dey cry

Take heart bro I know how it feels

Those where the T72 & BMP-1, old era soviet hardware. Even the terrorist can operate them without any manual’s
The SH-5 self-propelled howitzers are very complex/very tactical hardware to operate. The STI and VT4 shouldn’t take so much time, I think the NA HQ are just waiting for the right weather and terrain to lunch the major offensive.

A few questions for you to answer and or think about, to guide your expectations and assumptions.

1. How large is the NE? ❓

2. How many multiple areas of contention (conflict hot points) do we have across the NE❓

3. How many multiple and different armoured vehicle platforms, IFV's, MRAP's, APC's, MBT's, do you think we need.

Having answered these questions or indeed thought about them.

Are you still expecting some major offensive against Boko in the near future ❓ ❓

Not too long ago we saw the Chadians uproot Boko from there territory. We also knew where there destination was going to be.

I expected a major offensive then but it was wishful thinking.

Boko have now become entrenched on our territory and have literally taken control of large swaths of territory.

Our Soldiers who should be the hunters are very disturbingly becoming the hunted. Our casualty rate cannot be swept under the carpet with rhetoric and misinformation.

I said the months ago, we should come of our high horse, stop posturing humble ourselves and call our Chadian brothers to help us.

The reach the Chadians dial *cross the border and don't comeback#

You cannot teach anyone to be brave ...The person has to on his own teach himself/herself to conquer fear...What is taught at the military academy is discipline, tactics skills etc.....That Diya cried for Abacha does not mean he is a coward...You cannot judge a man by one incident in his life...i still stand by my initial post....As a leader u dont only teach u inspire ur subordinates

FieldMarshall06:


Unfortunately you are very wrong. I am talking about Natural Qualities not about Skills.

People and animals can be trained to acquire Skills, not qualities.

For example, Gen Diya received the best military training and held commands in his 35yrs career; yet those did Not make him Brave. Faced with Abacha, he knelt down crying and begging. Major Orkar never did that, even when caught, Gen Ironsi too.
So, Bravery is a quality and not a skill to be learned. Marksmanship is a skill not a quality. Combat proficiency can be learned, it is not a quality.

An animal e.g, a dog can acquire training in sniffing cocaine. Sniffing is a skill. But a sniffing Rottweiler would be different from a sniffing Labrador. They would both sniff, but a Rottweiler would be madder. That madness is an innate quality.

In Science and Engineering, Thermodynamics separates the quality of matter from it's attributes. That is the reason different elements/compounds have different chemical potential. Sodium and Silver are both metals and share many metallic properties; yet Sodium is very reactive and explosive while Silver is relatively inert. The difference is in their inner quality aka chemical potential which Scientists study in Statistical Mechanics and Quantum Field theory.

That internal quality in Science which we evaluate using the Gibbs function is the same in humans. Internal quality of people differ, no amount of training will change that. 1000 Diyas can never become 1 Orkar. They were both competent soldiers, but the difference is in the Inner man. My elders say Man pass Man. That's Fact.

Hope you have learned. You cannot change people. When you see certain traits, cut them off, like that yr5 bsuo.

Zullum got intellegence reports that he'll be attacked yet he went ahead and it cost the lives of over 30 people.
When you talk some ANALysts will be yapping and theorising how Zullum took and oath to defend his people and how his job is not for the faint hearted. I guess he isn't under any obligation to make decisions to protect the security agents and aides that dies whenever he refuses to heed to Intels report.
Those that died during the journey can't be brought back, and the mission wasn't even successful. Had he listened to the security reports people won't have died needlessly. Yes, a governor should be up and doing especially in a situation that bothers on humanitarian crises, but clearance from security agents is paramount, esp when it is well known that the enemy effectively make use of IEDs/Mine to lay ambush on convoys and these efforts doubled when they know a VIP/High value target is their potential prey.
My own is that Zullum should please listen to security advisories, I know military personnel won't be happy with him whenever he goes against their advise, these guys are professionals for heaven's sake. Some of us are beginning to think that the Gov. is doing this to court media attention.
Tomorrow he will go to Abuja and praise Buhari then return to blame the military and be calling the Chadians to come and fight for us.

A veteran and strategist, I love his analysis, even a layman will understand. Those people who come here and defend zulum's action are just not realistic, watch them come here and lament anytime he's attacked.

U know what @ugo4u, after hearing Zulum open his mouth to ask for the support of the Chadian army, must confess, it is a sorry end to the ambitious project one was hoping the Governor had in mind.
@ugo4u I am sorry about all the insinuations I made about your person directly or indirectly. I guess its also easy to be a useful idiot in a game one is not aware is been played, or at least had forgotten a game was been played. I usually don't forget easily but Zulum is a new player, so it was easy to fall in to the trap of been played for a fool
Zulum's project one hoped was the utter self-believe in the people of Borno above and beyond anyone else. It seems like the Borno Governor wants to wish this war away, looking for the seemingly easiest way out. How does one think calling on the despotic Chadian government, one who has been constantly implicated in the perpetuation of this conflict will help in any way. Forget the mindless PR offered to despotic chad by so called reasonable Nigerian journalist who spew jargon acting like useful idiots. If it looks like Chadians will help in the short run, that's because in the long run it will certainly lead to the annexation of large parts of Borno , parts that border lake chad. Isn't it obvious to Zulum that this conflict is conveniently perpetrated in areas rich in oil and gas. As is the constant thought going around the rest of the nation, there seems to be a stronger affinity between the Borno elites, Chad and Niger, than there is to the Borno people. Doesn't it seem like Borno people have been deliberately under educated hence they cannot seem to muster the will to agitate against their masters? One can understand why people say the Elites of Borno do not want this war to end. How does a Governor of a state open his whole mouth to utter such a senile sentence as to request for Chadians to enter Nigerian territory, we tried it before, it was a stupid idea then, it is a stupid idea now, and will forever be a stupid idea. This is absolutely demoralizing, judging by the comments offered on here, military personnel must be feeling a certain gut wrenching twist. Or maybe they've known this all along and have been happy to dance systematically to the tune of the ridiculously absurd, all the while using this opportunity to modernize their assets.
Borno elites have sold its people down down the river, so it seems. Does it now mean that anybody who feels sorry for them is the utter fool in this scenario? because they cant see the power play.

“Zulum rationalised that no single army anywhere in the world has ever succeeded in quelling insurgency"
I mean what kind of utter rubbish is he talking about. Dude stfu. Zulum will rather seek the bosom of despotic Chad than openly castigate the President? Allahu Akbar

Its true @ugo4u I never really understood the fact that Zulum always sings the praises of the president but viciously attacks the Military. Common sense should suggest that if there's a problem, it should be from the head? is it because they belong to the same political party, or better yet, is it because they both identify as Northerners, hence they cant publicly disagree? but this is political talk, and we are not allowed to have that here, so wouldn't go much into that. Wouldnt go into the political beginnings of the so called boko haram either, those who know, know.
To the Military personnel in Borno, now it is understood why you preserve your institution jealously. Why you protect it from been totally eviscerated by the powers working against you. The Borno elite do not want you to succeed. We see it clearly now.

Respectfully disagree.... we just need to put the blame where the blame lies and stop seeking for short term fixes. If one remembers clearly, a certain candidate campaigned through a certain party on the "we will end boko haram" mantra. We should lay all short comings at this persons doorstep, anything other than that will be shying away from the truth. As said earlier, requesting despotic Chad to enter Nigerian territory is a bad bad idea.... it was a bad idea when we first tried it, thank God it was stopped quickly, it is a bad idea now, and will forever be a bad idea. This is a sure way to annexation. And to insinuate that despotic Chad and its 30 year ruler uprooted boko haram from its territory is another PR campaign perpetrated for the benefit of a despot, in a country without a free press or freedom of speech. Any news that comes out of despotic Chad should be taken with a grain of salt because truth is never alive in any despotic country especially one such as Chad. As late as April Despotic Chad continues to loose soldiers to the deranged boko haram. Understandably despotic Chad is Nigeria's neighbor so they have to work together, but each much remain in their territory, Nigeria should not and can never trust Idris deby, the Military know him all too well, he is a two timing s.o.b. Him and his goons must remain confined in Chad. They have their eyes on the wealth present in the lake chad.
Our best bet is still the Military of a democratic federal republic of Nigeria. Facts.

Sincerely bro i do not see any specialty about the Chadian Army aside a very high level of morale. The Nigeria Army needs to do something about the morale of of its personnel in this ongoing war.
