of course now. I'm just saying certain situations still need work. lack of awareness, having terrorists get close to military formations, base breaches, improper base protection etc, those need work.
Yes I agree on that, that's why I said they still need to improve, but they have made some improvements over the years.

So did Shekarau and his men crossed over from Niger republic or Chad into Nigeria? The Ghanaian Airforce have 5 or so Super tucanoes.

The Ghanaian army have Armoured fighting vehicles and Artilleries. All this is enough to fight a light infantry men like Bandits and other terrorists group.

How the Ghanians military will perform if terrorists try to invade Ghana is what I do not know, but what I know is that, they crushed armed Fulani heardsmen, and they are smart not to let terrorists gain access into their country.

If you check around, you won't see terrorists groups operating freely in well organized countries around the world. Check the list of countries terrorists they operate freely, they are mostly disorganized and failing countries.
So Egypt is a disorganized and failing country right?
Ghana doesn't have any Super tucano in service, they only order for 5.
They have no jet fighters and MBT.
Like I said, you know nothing about military, just stick to posting your Sahara news, that's your specialty.

Yeah, that was what happened to Niger, Chad, and Cameroon, they thought Boko Haram was only a Nigerian issue, till it started affecting them, now they are stuck with us together in the war against terrorists.

yea if you learn from past mistakes and get creative. NA has shown unwillingness to do this. so i wonder what it is they've learnt. Doesn't seem like they are putting much of it to good use
Bro you can't compare NA of 2009, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 to NA from 2015 to 2021 now, you can agree with me that a lot have improved, but they are slow.

A smart country will crush a terrorist group before they are confidence enough to think of putting up a fight.

If the Ghanaian FG was giving excuse for Fulanis herdsmen in Ghana, maybe their will be killings in different part of Ghana by now. They totally crushed them and kicked them out of Ghana.

The type of killing spree the Fulani heardsmen have been unleashing in Nigeria, they dare not try it in Benin republic. Dem dey round them up and butcher them immediately.
It will shock you when terrorists starts invading and killing in Ghana, Ghana has no MBT and jet fighters, they are just being hopefully that terrorists don't cross over from Burkina Faso.
You know nothing.

USA was not fighting on their territory, a terrorist organization dare not go the violent way in the USA, it won't last up to a day. The Nigerian army have been fighting terrorists in the North East for more than 10 years on Nigeria soil.

Yes, US might be able to crush any country in a conventional war, but they might only win the battles, but might never win the war.

In fact, make I tell myself the truth, the Nigerian army have not been learning anything in this fight against insurgency. This is why ISWAP is still confident enough to take the way to the army.
Lol you still don't get it, we are not fighting conventional war with Boko Haram and ISWAP, yet we have weakened they capabilities
Do you know how many countries it took to weaken ISIS in Syria? After many years? You no nothing about asymmetric warfare.
So why are the US not stopping the mass shootings and killings from gunmen in US?

DubaiLandLord:
A civil war is different from fighting an insurgency, this is one thing you must know. All what the USA have learn fighting the taliban's won't help them if they go to war with the EU, Russia China or Japan.
There is difference between conventional warfare and asymmetric warfare.
What the US fought in Afghanistan is asymmetric warfare and that is the most difficult warfare you will ever have, and that's what Nigerian has been fighting since, it takes decades to end.
Nigerian military are trained for conventional warfare, so it will be easier for them to fight an invading enemy, not a hiding enemy.
US will crush any country in a conventional war.
What I mean about what we have learned in this Boko Haram war, is that it is helping in shaping Nigerian military to be an all round fighting force, I hope you get my points?

Yes, Egypt is the strongest military in Africa on paper, and base on how powerful the Egyptian military is on paper, it should be able to crush the Ethiopian military but reality is often disappointing, this is why a regional army is holding is grounds against the central government army in Ethiopia, this s why UGM could held their own against the Nigerian army and police.

If we are to go by the books, ISWAP, bandits, armed Fulani heardsmen and Boko Haram should not be operating on Nigerian soil at all, not to talk of controlling some areas, but like I said before, reality is often disappointing.
I don't understand your quotes mate.

Imagine if this happened to the NA. Just imagine what the media would say and blow it out of proportion.
Man, people really underrates Nigerian military capabilities, fighting unconventional warfare.
Flying junky alpha jets, not f 16 or rafale or su-35 or f 35 to give deadly terrorists groups bloody noses and turning them into mere criminals.
Just imagine what more we could do if we had all these advance weapons.
I know there is a lot of things we need to improve, but we have made a giant stride in this war.
The war has thought us a lot of things, and we will keep improving.

They lost a battle. So they surrendered. The Ethiopian central government overestimated their military strength.

War no be child's play.

The party in charge of Tigray region feel the Federal Government dey do pass them power, this is what lead to the war.
If they can't defeat a regional military, how can they defeat the strongest military I'm Africa, Egypt?

Bad or good news people's depending on what side you stand on in the conflict. Tigray's provincial capital, Mekelle has claimed to have been captured by the TPLF after devastating losses to the Ethiopian and Eritrean army with supposedly thousands of troops taken prisoner, multiple aircraft shot down and many armored vehicles captured. The Ethiopian and Eritrean troops have been allegedly responsible for extreme atrocities against the Tigrayans.

-courtesy of Shadowprimezero

I had no idea Eritrean troops where even directly involved in the conflict shocked


Once again I swear if this had been Nigeria and BokoHarem achieved this Nigeria would be getting LIT THE HECK UP on international media.

It amazes me how a terrorist cell that resides IN A SINGLE STATE OUT OF 36 in a SINGLE FOREST that SPARSELY attacks a few towns every now and then at the furthest tip of the country away from 95% of the population confirms the DOOM, GLOOM, AND END OF NIGERIA but separatist insurrectionist capturing a capital, multiple cities/towns, capturing/killing soldiers & civilians in the hundreds by the week is NO BIG DEAL BY COMPARISON. "Ethiopia's FINE they can handle it & better off than Nigeria many would say now here and across the globe. undecided
But how did they manage to capture this thousands of soldiers in weeks? Did they voluntarily surrendered?
Can someone please enlighten me?

RETOOLING THE NIGERIAN NAVY FOR GREATER EFFICIENCY!

Do you know that Nigeria had Africa's most formidable warship, which was appropriately named NNS Aradu (Aradu is the Hausa word for thunder), but was left stagnant and inoperable for several years due to what naval authorities at that time described as lack of funding, uptill 2017 when the navy estimated that they will require about $250m to refit the warship for maritime operations. The present administration obliged that request and got the ship fixed and operational by the end of 2020, although in a new role as a combat training ship for Nigeria's new General-Purpose frigate acquired at the cost of $350m, which will soon arrive the country.


The NN it's on is way to glory !
When did we acquire that bro?
A new frigate?

You can use your internet sir.

Or also check Ipob members arrested in Ebonyi state sir.

The South East is unbelievably quiet for a while now, na Twitter cause the Balck out on information or na say it's really peaceful?
A lot of arrest has been made and many Esn camps has been dislodge, hence the quietness in SE.

Even Nnamdi kanu doesn't tweet much, I bet he's on the run, or being threatened, because the few he has tweeted for the past days has been the justification for the creation of ESN.

Baba rest how do you guys even sleep at night when you justify things that doesn't make sense? sad sad...now you want to use "we are at war" as an excuse for not honouring fallen heroes?? sad sad

Let me give few instances
1) The time we lost 100+ men(can't remember the actual location, a company or so was attacked and almost wiped out) what did the president do, he went to commission a railway station at Lagos instead of attending burial of soldiers

2) The COAS died on official duty, did the president attend the burial?? What of vice??

3) One happened recently a major died together with some soldiers, but the focus was just on the major and it was a if the soldiers were worthless.
Here sir, I'm sure you are not stupid enough not to remember that the president was in Lagos 2 weeks ago to commission railway station.

How do you then tell soldiers and officers that their sacrifice is been acknowledged??

I still praise Ret. Air marshal Sadiq Baba.


We have seen in situation whereby US will fly a single dead soldier in a C130 from middle East down to the states (am not comparing US with Nigeria). All am trying to say it that these men deserves to be buried with honour war or no war.

I rest my case
Apart from your number 2, when did your number 1 and 3 happened this year?
