Kazikazi: The boys were released after negotiations with the abductors Military operations gave government the upper hand in the negotiations that eventually secured the release of the kids. A fire exchange with the abductors would have been catastrophic. Accounts given by the freed students showed that the bandits had many armed kids within their ranks and it would have been difficult to differentiate the kids. Many of the students would have died. So the best thing was done after failure to prevent it from happening in the first instance. 2 Likes |

Kazikazi: Once the kidnap happened, the military, army and air force sprang to action. There was an initial exchange of fire with an advanced military team. In other to avoid civilian casualties, the army was ordered to tail the adductors and prevent them any freedom of movement. The military immediately deployed ISR aircrafts, drones, helicopters, fighter jets, armour and special forces to cordon the general area. Boko-Haram Terrorists wanted to take advantage of the situation, hence the propaganda video Shekau released. While the area was cordoned off the army government weighed their options, and chose the best possible action to save all the boys kidnapped. See below pictures from the actual military operation and cordon. 6 Likes

kabe1:Also if those kidnappers took more time We would have been forced to use military action cos the special forces deployed at that time were ordered to stand down. The Military used SHOW OF FORCE to get those boys out.. 1 Like |

The guns are field artillery pieces and some of the equipment are vehicle ultra-light carriage for artillery and self propelled light gun series whose identity and specification is not to be published for security reasons. Speaking to journalists after the commissioning ceremony, spokesman of the Nigerian Army, Brig- Gen.
