PoliticsRe: Nigerian Military Behaves Like Boko Haram------inspector-general Of Police Says by Roski1(m):
How does strength of military or police put food on my table? So anyone who gives a contrary view on this topic is bokoharam. Well that's your business. I wanted to use derogatory words on you in response to you calling me bokoharam, but it would amount to descending to your level. Issues must be looked at from all perspectives, without cyber bullying. While I don't like fracas between security agencies, I feel the situation in Adamawa State would have been avoided if the police had immediately reached out to the military and detained the policeman who killed a soldier. The slain soldier and policeman are both Nigerian's. No Nigerian is more Nigerian than the other.
IamANigerianMan:
See one of the Boko Haram.. if this useless military is so powerful as you think, they met with police at the check point , police dealt with them , they went and carry entire battalion to fight back... Nigerian soldier are the weakest in Africa.. if they are so powerful why go back for re-efforcement against POLICE... The funnest of it . The mopol that dealt with them. They did not branch there , they went directly to ATURA, those one carrying gun without bullet .

Nigerian Military behaves Like Boko Haram--Inspector-General of Police Says The Inspector-General of Police, Olukayode Egbetokun has described.


The Inspector-General of Police, Olukayode Egbetokun has described the military invasion of the Adamawa State Police Command headquarters as a “Boko Haram terror attack.”



Egbetokun, who visited the command on his first official visit on Monday, condoled with personnel over the unfortunate invasion of the command on November 21, 2023.




The police boss said the unfortunate attack on the Adamawa police command by recalcitrant soldiers caused the death of Inspector Daniel Jacob.


According to him, their action was no less an act which could only have been carried out by "terrorists".



He further labelled the attack as barbaric, saying the incident would be the last of such ugly incident because it had been tabled before the highest authorities in the land.



He said, "It was an unfortunate incident which should never have happened. I believe this is going to be the last time it will happen in Nigeria.



"These people came like bandits and carried out the attack on our facility in a manner similar to invasion by Boko Haram."

Earlier, in his remarks, the IGP regretted the murder of its officer during the invasion by recalcitrant military personnel on its facility.



He said, "Inspector Jacob Daniel was an officer, on duty at the quarter guard on Wednesday last week when he was murdered, following an invasion on this headquarters by some recalcitrant soldiers, in an attack that was unwarranted, carried out in a manner reflecting the activities of Boko Haram by their invasion on this facility."


"I am in your midst this afternoon to share the grief that you have. I learnt that he was an officer that was committed to his duty. He always demonstrated the highest level of dedication to duty. But unfortunately, we lost him to the attack that was unwarranted and barbaric."




According to the IGP, he had taken up the incident at the highest levels of government to ensure justice for the slain cop, who died during that attack.

After observing a minute silence for the slain cop, Egbetokun admonished officers of the force not to allow the incident to dampen their morale. He insisted that justice would be served and explained that the two security agencies were not at war with each other, adding that they were sister agencies working towards the same goal of securing the nation.


The Commissioner of Police, Adamawa State command, Afolabi Babatola, drew wide applause from officers when he tabled the request for armoured personnel carriers, gun truck and Hilux vehicles to maintain the "tempo" of the force.



The CP had said, "in fact the command in particular and the state in general would have been in a state of total calmness if not for the unfortunate incident that happened on Tuesday 21st November, 2023.




"I will like to use this opportunity to request for Armoured Personnel Carriers (APCs), gun trucks and Hilux Vehicles to maintain the tempo."

Yorubas should grow up and compete. Stop relying on "na we get Lagos"
The funny thing is that many Yoruba's who are my friends voted against APC in Lagos. Some unenlightened Yoruba' s think the clamor for change of party structure is a tribal thing (Yoruba vs Igbo), not knowing that its borne out of frustration on the performance of the APC in the state and the wanton looting of its resources, while using only a fraction for development. I believe that if Lagos had a more prudent and sincere government, it would be more developed than it is currently. Again, if a Yoruba woman can be overwhelmingly voted for into the Senate in the FCT, i dont see why Igbo or even Hausa cannot be voted as Governor of Lagos, provided the people believe in him. Remember, Lagos still holds the sentiments of being a former FCT.

Only Asiwaju can stand by you in thick and thin. Reminds me of how Asiwaju acknowledged that his late mother taught him this quality.

My mother taught me if you are sad, I will share your sorrow with you, if you are happy I will rejoice with you. If you are poor I will share the little I have with you”.

Asiwaju Tinubu, Jan 29,2023.

Asiwaju Tinubu is a kind and authentic Leader.

Those tiny minority of misguided hateful youths and unpatriotic Ipob terrorists and their sympathizers banking on politics of lies, ignorance, envy, hate and bihotry ti lule se. Mr Obi will abandon you like he did to Chief Ezeife. With his acclaimed billions, he heard that the wife of Chief Ezeife was kidnapped but he did nothing.
But not Asiwaju. Asiwaju will never abandon people. He is a true Omoluabi.

Foreign AffairsRe: USA Defense Secretary Begs Russia To Maintain Communication On Ukraine by Roski1(m): 10:41am On Oct 22, 2022
At this point in time, it is necessary for world powers to intervene and bring the war to an end, without taking sides with Russia or the US. I said US not Ukraine because Ukraine is being used by the US to fight proxy war with Russia. I feel the war is not necessary because of the negative impact it is having on the world economy, coupled with other factors such as climate change(flooding) which have made life unbearable for everyone. I am not a fan of Russia and i have my own issues with the US, but aside gas and munitions, of what other use is Russia to the world. I believe even the enemies of the US (supporters of Russia), if given the opportunity to JAPA, will choose the US and where it is not possible, they will prefer UK, other western nations or even Asia.

PoliticsRe: How The Late Queen Elizabeth II Animalise Black Children Like Chickens by Roski1(m): 3:13pm On Sep 09, 2022
Well, the Queen is dead and resting. I don't know why people are trying to dig out her right or wrong now that she is gone, even going to the extent of posting fake visuals. Though some Easterners will say she made them suffer during the war, but remember the Queen or King of England is only ceremonial. The Head of Government is the prime minister and as such any grievances should be channeled to the government in place as at the time of the Nigerian Civil War. So get your facts right and leave the dead alone. I don't now why some Easterners or Igbos cry more than the bereaved. If one were to critically examine Nigerian history, it is glaring that those who staged the first coup in Nigeria were Igbos and imagine staging a coup and killing the leaders from other regions, while Aguiyi Ironsi who later became Head of State did not execute the coup plotters simply because of sentiments. These events led to the killing of Ironsi and Igbos and also led to the Nigerian Civil War. So as you point one finger at others, 4 are pointing back at you. Imagine how things would have been in Nigeria if Kaduna Nzeogwu and co did not create the platform for violent takeover of governments.
SportsRe: NFF Considers Appointing Eguavoen Permanent Super Eagles Coach by Roski1(m): 7:13am On Jan 22, 2022
techmo:
Egouvean is more hungry for success than oyinbo coaches, he just wants to proof himself to his country once more
First and foremost we should give credit to the players for their performance because they are the ones doing the job. Secondly we should credit Rohr for assembling the team. Personally, I think the only area that helped Eguaveon is the guts he displayed by benching some regulars like Iwobi, Musa, who are not on form. However, we should allow the man to concentrate on his job. He has only played 3 games and has 4 more to win the trophy.

If we remember his performances in other coaching roles he has handled, then we know that it's too early to start hyping him. We should also not forget that JJ Okocha, Kanu Nwankwo and some other ex-internatiinals were drafted in interim capacity to assist Eguaveon. They also deserve credit.

Finally, there has not been complaints from the players about non payment of bonuses. We all know that it's a very big MORALE booster. Probably its the reason for their dedication this time around, thus Pinnick deserved credit.

We keep talking about war, war, war. It is never the solution to any problem and it does not guarantee freedom. We should not support any group that goes around killing innocent persons, irrespective of whether the person is of the same tribe, religion or faith as ours. If you go to IDP Camps, you would understand. We should remember that war or violence does not guarantee freedom. War is only delightful to those who have never experienced it. Even soldiers do not pray for war.

This plane is actually one of the latest and a modern light attack aircraft being used by the US military. It's design with propeller is based on the role it will play as it is meant to give close air support to ground troops especially in counter terrorism operations. It can fire machine gun and cannon bombs, unlike non propeller aircraft which is mainly for air to air battle and operates on high altitude.

When the police are trying to do their work, you hear all types of allegations against them. When they leave their post, people begin to accuse them for not doing their work. Sometimes we should learn to appreciate the work police and other security agencies are doing instead of being always critical. I am sure if the police are in their duty place you will see persons deliberately trying to undermine them by disobeying the lockdown order and as soon as police react, they begin to shout human rights.

This is a very serious morale booster for the troops especially with the recent challenges. It's not easy to prosecute a war and most times when troops morale is shaky, there is need to boost them up. This gesture though not the first by the Chief of Army Staff, is highly commendable. We would get there soon. The only Service Chief in the history of Nigeria who has ever advanced on foot with soldiers even up to Sambisa Forest. Regrettably the press do not report such, they only wait for a little hitch which they over exaggerate. The Chief of Army Staff is also formulating policies to boost welfare of personnel and their families, especially children of deceased personnel who are being trained up to university level. I remember a former Chief who sent soldiers to battle without any equipment and sentenced many of them to death when their location fell to Boko Haram, while others were summarily dismissed without fair hearing. May God continue to bless Lt Gen Tukur Butatai. Sometimes you never know what you have until we you loose it.

Good. Even our soldiers who died recently was as a result of blast caused by RPG fire which struck a truck carrying armaments for artillery. They weren't dislodged. No battle can be prosecuted without casualties on both sides. Even the Americans fumbled in Vietnam and Somalia. British were almost disgraced by Argentina at the Falklands.

Warfare does not only imply offensive operations. Troops will also carryout defensive operations. They must have a base from which the go out to operate and retire to. Chadian Army were attacked in their base where over 90 personnel were killed.

If someone takes a good look at what was claimed to have been captured by Chadians, 95% of those weapons are Dane guns. It's what Chad tells us that we would believe and all of a sudden Nigerian Army have become useless. If our police and civil defense were doing their work well, we won't have Army in town doing police duties.

Because a few misguided elements in the Army misbehave, does not mean the whole Army is useless. Besides it has been proven over time that no organization disciplines its staff like the Army and its even the loyalty of Nigerian Army that has helped to keep this country as one.
PoliticsRe: Idriss Deby Reveals: Nigeria Supports Chadian Forces In Routing Boko Haram by Roski1(m): 7:19am On Apr 08, 2020
Out Army did very well in the fight against Boko Haram, especially in Sambisa Forest where they are no longer as strong as before. During the 2015 - 2018 era of the war, our soldiers performed wonders and Boko Haram could not even face the army in battle. The terrorists were then pushed to the fringes of Lake Chad which borders Nigeria, Cameroon, Niger and Chad. Presently, there is relative peace in those areas bordering Cameroon because they played their part. Such could not be said about the Chadians and Nigeriens who remained practically neutral or in most cases had some of their rebel factions aiding the Boko Haram against Nigerian troops. Idris Deby only decided to declare war against Boko Haram after over 90 of his soldiers were killed and countless equipment carted away. If you analyse Shekaus video, you will understand that he was trying to convince Chad why they are not supposed to attack his troops. It could also be deduced that the action of his men was made in error, unlike when there is fracas between his men and Nigerian troops.

In this our country Nigeria, we have had great fighters such as Abu Ali, Micah and many others. They made their exploits at the rank of Major. So, for a country like Chad whose President has to be on ground before his troops fight, it tells a lot about the failure of his junior commanders and service chiefs.

It would also interest you to know that MNJTF was a brain child of Nigerian government with countries along the Lake Chad area and its headquarters is also in Njamena Chad. Though being a multinational outfit, Nigeria has been the sole contributor in terms of funds and logistics. One thing to note is that a country whose borders, air and waterways is not adequately protected cannot be secured, however, out neighbors at the borders do not want to do their part. Instead Boko Haram have found secured passage for bringing in arms to fight Nigeria. Subsequently, the solution to this is that the Nigerian government should go into massive recruitment of soldiers and purchase of adequate equipment so that we would adequately secure both our land borders and water space.

My respect to our soldiers who have paid the supreme price and also to those who are currently in the battle front.

Energy being used to abuse our soldiers many of whom have laid down their lives and future to defend this country, should be channeled to our fellow civilians (politicians) of whom it is their duty to ensure they provide the necessary funding for the soldiers. It is necessary to know how procurement for military equipment is done in Nigeria before one starts castigating the service chiefs or any other soldier. But for clearity, procurement and liaison for military equipment has little to do with the serving personnel. All this writeup is not to discredit the Chadian Army as kudos must be given to whom it is due, however just as they recorded successes, out soldiers even with the neglect from our fellow civilian politicians have also recorded successes. Similarly just as the Chadian Soldiers have recorded defeats in some battles, we have also recorded defeats in some battles. Overall, as far as Boko Haram have not taken over administration of the North Eastern Nigeria, the overall military campaign cannot be said to be a failure, it is a work in progress.
