Finally! Let's spice this up with 15 units of Su-25s and 10-20 units of Super Tucanos for the NAF...Replace all Hilux vehicles with the IGIRIGI, get a dedicated IFV in about 250 units, ATGMs for troops, BH will be wiped out before the end of the year... GOOD NEWS!!! http://dailypost.ng/2014/07/25/book-haram-fg-orders-purchase-40-military-transport-helicopters/ |

ObiOkpor: @siriusblack,what if some one entered through recruit and luckily got admission into NDA or any university,how possible is that and what rank will he/she attain?Then he/she will follow the normal route..MANY peeps here became officers that way...joined as recruits with degrees, making it easier to get recommendations from Senior Officers for NDA admissions...they then did SSC for a year and are now offcrs...others still less than 21yrs of age just went straight to the RC training. 3 Likes |

brownlords: Gen sirusblack and other officers in the house, please i need you to answer this for me.They are both quite similar but the DSS is mainly for "ready-made" professionals like Medical doctors...The SSC is for graduates...They both train at the NDA...the RC trains at the permanent site at Kawo...the SSC and DSS cadets train at the old site...RC cadets train for 5 years....SSC cadets, about 9 months...but you will have to be VERY good, as an SSC and DSS trained officer, to get into the Infantry and Armoured Corps.. On the second question, You can go wherever God takes you....many peeps ill tell you that the highest SSC and DSS officers can go, is as Major Generals...which means that you will keep the same salary scale even after retirement...But, if you stand out, the sky is the limit....the immediate past Chief of Air staff was SSC trained...the first female Major General too was DSS trained...Lt.Gen Chris Alli who was COAS during the Abacha era was SSC trained...In the army, officers are respected equally based on rank..whatever commission they passed through...Just try and be the best, work hard, lay low, and you might become COAS even with a DSS commission. 9 Likes 1 Share |

tit:Ill pardon your ignorance...Domboa is a town..not some bush you can just shell...most of the civilians there have fled.. Still, you can't just shell a town because enemies are there...war is inseperable from politics..don't be naïve...We boast of one of the largest Artillery systems in Africa...It doesn't cost the N.A to shell the town to dust...but imagine the political firestorm if we destroy the livelihoods of people living there...check page 0, I posted a phot of Artillery units shelling fleeing insurgents...you think we can't do that?

@Helghast...nice idea...bt I just can't juggle this work on two platforms...this campaign is all I do with my free time...another platform like twitter, and this thread will lose its value on the long run...Nairaland has been an excellent platform so far....easy to use, highly interactive and full of brilliant minds...Twitter on the other hand is full of rude, foul-mouthed, shallow-minded teenagers who don't know shi.t about Defence topics..NL is perfect. 20 Likes |

SergeAlain: @AdeyemikI'm not pro-GEJ or pro APC, as I have little time for ghana-must-go politics, still I'm 100percent loyal to the President..and will die for him if necessary, but I'm not his supporter....I think the oppostion's behaviour in all of this has been very shameful...Every single time a bomb goes off, it is an opportunity for finger-pointing and attacks on the government...What will they have the man do?! He just requested for USD1bn and they are pushing against it...is that not sick? What could a president have done that he has not done in the area of defence? Instead of pointing fingers at the same people who were pro-BH when BH was bombing churches..the same people who had the guts to say that the State of Emergency is not needed..same people who refused to call their supporters into order when they were killing corpers after an election loss...the same people who created the Boko haram sect in the early 2000s in the first place...the same people who were caught red-handed with phone logs to BH insurgents!..Red-handed..Is anyone still asking me who BH's sponsors are? I have a lot of respect for the General, but, right now he is sorrounded by murderers..Nigerians, let's turn our anger towards the Modu-Sherrifs, the informant senator, the anti-FG governors, the pro-BH sheikhs, and the clowns at CAN...this country is at war...don't let anyone decieve you..this is a civil War...There is no time for APC vs PDP jargons while slave raiders keep killing men, women and children...It is time to put our ethnic differences behind us and work together as ONE to end this madness...A boko haram bomb does not care what village you are from...they are ENEMIES OF THE STATE. Or is it when I start uploading photos of dead villagers? A year old baby was cut in half and hung on a pike, by the bastards...same bastards that Amnesty International calls "Victims of Poverty"...I wept for days for the child...Are Nigerians thinking?! Sitting in the comfort of their homes in Lagos and Abuja watching DSTV? This is a time for unity...our politicians keep planting the seed of discord among us and we keep taking the bait!...You don't have to be pro-GEJ to support the Government's fight against this madness!!

adeyemik: @SirusiBlack.Bro...the topic is quite sensitive...Troops rotation was one of the issues behind the unfortunate mutiny...but ill give you some info.... Before the 7th Division was established, frontline troops were made up of splinters of troops mostly from battalions from the Armoured Division units at Jos, Bauchi with some units from Kaduna and even Ibadan...After the 7th Division was established, it was splintered into several infantry battalions, some armoured battalions and a few SF battalions...troop rotation however varies across various areas...varies for officers and soldiers...Armoured brigades are based almost entirely up north so, thiers is to very regular....in summary, tours of duty are about a year and half for regular soldiers...mostly it just depends on if ure in infantry battalions, artillery brigades or armoured battalions..Recently some guys from Lagos were injected..some artillery guys from akure too...so, in about 2 years from now, every infantry soldier in the N.A will have real cpmbat experience under his belt...every single soldier. 11 Likes 1 Share |

egbaguy: if any sensible person still stays in d forest,it means d person deserve to die. Imagine,staying with terrorists.Let me tell you something only about 1percent of Nigerians know.....Sambisa is more of a "city"...Boko camps are filled with families...they have internal governments in camps, camp chiefs, islamic schools for arabic learning for their kids, organised social structures and so on...BH camps in sambisa are not just bushes filled with jobless gun-totting youths, If the army decides to do the Hiroshima treatment, assuming we have air assets for that, imagine the reaction of BH closet sympathisers like Amnesty International, SaharaReporters, and one Sheikh who we all know......What we need to do is to make sure that every terrorist convoy that heads out of Sambisa does not come back smiling...inside Sambisa are children.....who didn't choose their fathers............ 17 Likes |
