Would you pick the money if the pin of the grenade was removed and it's carefully placed on the money

Lol, nothing a duct tape can't solve....even grenades with pins, I still tape them....i really dislike grenades, and people under estimate their destructive power

Nemesis4you:
Add one observation helicopter to the mix

And it will be a very lethal & effective combo

An armed drone, would be better

These are actually navy personnel attached to the nimasa deep blue sea project, they have special forces badges......I know this because I personally know people in the unit.

SamuelAnyawu:
Are we really sure he got the payment amount stated there?
Them fit don kill this man self already. He can’t run with this amount alone

Was he into procurement of arms?

I too, think this man is dead, unless he has the backing of a government spy agency, this man wouldn't have any where to hide....the money is too much and the trail would always lead to him.

Seems the navy is experimenting with water jet propulsion.....which is nice

Like following the ban on Twitter, we no longer get daily intelligence and on my radar reports here again. Or the rush of there is an attack and updates, delivered like they are the direct source���

One thing I know, is that we really need this bmpt and bmp 3s in the fighter in the north east, those vt4 especially is just an over kill, and not really appreciate.

Does your country use nuclear bombs?

Daverytimes:
I was thinking that I was having a discussion with someone who wants to have an objective discussion but those last few paragraphs has snapped me back to the reality. Could those other ways of doing things possibly be the way that they have been doing it for decades with no result and being slaughtered? Are you equating Igbo marginalization with greater Nigerian suffering? And did you just suggest that because of the actions of a minority of a minority that Igbo's are nothing more than money and showing off?
Have to give it to you, you had me fooled into engaging you, good job.

All I'm saying is that there is a better and more realistically peaceful way to achieve what igbos want, all they need is one voice politically, if Nigeria was a good country with the right political leaders would igbos say they want to leave? Mnk is in the UK, most Nigerians in general, and igbos too are giving testimonies that they got visas and became citizens of other countries , because they know the value. Most igbos won't even trade biafra passport for USA passport, if they were offered biafra on a platter of gold. Why can't the igbo race, come together and push a candidate forward and let's see what happens then? And if per chance, this candidate wins , he can transform Nigeria, because Nigeria is better off big and together instead of broken to pieces. Look at the best country, they all have diverse cultures of people from the world, and they still function effectively.
Mind you my point about thinking igbo been smart is not a tribal slur, it just an observation, in my tribe there are certain observations people make and I'm realistic enough to know it true and not pick offense. Mind you the first person I heard complain about the way igbos think and not coming together to achieve a cause, was actually an igbo business man, and it was during the time of Jonathan's regime...and mind you this same man, writes articles at the back page of a popular Nigerian newspaper , and in this man's words.....people are protesting about fuel price and fuel scarcity, everyone is coming together, but my igbo brothers in alaba and trade fair are more interested in selling their products and making money, instead of breaking routine and coming together to achieve a cause. I'm far from tribalistic, growing up each close had 10 houses, in one close there could be as much as 9 different tribes.

The region being oppressed for the first time is kicking against the operation, their method is wrong and condemnable however it was obvious this was going to happen and thus people shouldn't feign concern now. When 150+ Igbo's were killed just 2 years ago many thought it funny and didn't seem concerned to condemn the governments actions, those same people should keep the same energy now because otherwise they are clearly hypocrites.

The southeast had been the most peaceful area of Nigeria for Atleast 2 decades now, I have no doubt that the current crises will pass, the days of bakassi boys came and went, this will surely come to pass.

150 people killed?

Who in Nigeria is not oppressed? Burning and fighting in your house, isn't smart at all, especially when you built most of your businesses and assets and liabilities in your neighbours house, and you are fighting the neighbour in your own house.....this isn't 1967, there are smarter ways to get what you want, as you need is coercion from the region in politics and Nigerians would be sympathetic, if not after burning your house, you would loose what you have built with the neighbour you are fighting .
Truthfully the igbos are seen as smart, but this their recent foray, is making people doubt if they think more than money to do business and show off.

Daverytimes:
And there it is, pretending to be educated but his hatred is showing. Since you ask, the south is more educated, richer, better infrastructure, better quality of life and on and on. Are we still a third world country? Absolutely, are we better than you in everything, ABSOFREAKINGLUTELY. You are the ones dragging Nigeria back, every indeces has the north far behind the south, as a collective the south is dragging your dead uneducated corpses. Let us go and you will see the development, join Niger if that's what ya'll want. What nonsense. You were forming intellectual and someone who has sense, but your hate don dey show.

The Southeast is destroying the homes they built with money you never gave them, they can rebuild it with money you will not give them so do not worry about it.

And this your statement, most particularly the burn and build again, makes sense to you?

PRESS RELEASE

TACKLING SECURITY CHALLENGES: POLICE ARREST 84 NOTORIOUS CRIMINAL SUSPECTS IN SPECIAL OPERATIONS

· Foil attempt to kidnap Catholic Bishop in Zaria


Following the ongoing implementation of a robust security action plan to protect citizens and critical national infrastructure across the country, operatives of the Nigeria Police Force, have arrested a total of eighty-four (84) notorious criminal suspects within the past one month. A total of forty-five (45) sophisticated firearms and ammunition including 1-GPMG, 1-LAR rifle, 17-AK47 rifles, 2-Pump Action rifles, 20- locally fabricated firearms, 3-single barrel guns, 9899- live ammunition of different calibres, 80-fake vehicle number plates, 1- Toyota Camry with Reg.

The suspects were arrested for their involvement in series of violent crimes including terrorism, banditry, kidnap for ransom, possession and proliferation of illegal weapons, armed robbery, unlawful production of vehicle number plates etc. While many of the suspects were arrested in follow-up on cases of violent crimes under investigations, many others were arrested after being subdued following gun duel with the police who took the battle to the doorsteps of the criminals.



Notably amongst the cases is the arrest of four (4) members of a notorious criminal gang responsible for carrying out some of the high-profile kidnap for ransom operations in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Kaduna, Niger, Katsina, Bauchi, and Plateau States. The suspects are Umar Abdullahi ‘m’ 40yrs of kali Kura village, Giwa LGA, Kaduna State, Yusuf Tanimu ‘m’ 23yrs of Kurena, Zaria, Kaduna State, Mamuda Suleiman ‘m’ 40yrs of Barkin ladi, Plateau State and Abubakar Yaro ‘m’ 38yrs from Wase village, Plateau State. Investigations revealed that the gang are linked to series of kidnap for ransom crimes including the kidnapping of some senior staff of the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, family members of notable political appointees and business entrepreneurs in Kaduna State and other contiguous State. Investigations revealed that the suspects were at an advanced stage of operationalizing their plans to kidnap a Catholic Bishop in Zaria, when they were apprehended. Investigations further revealed that the gang, in addition to their kidnapping enterprise, also supply arms and ammunition to Bandits at Birnin Gwarri, kaduna State, Niger, Katsina and Zamfara States. One (1) General Purpose Machine Gun (GPMG), two (2) AK47 rifles, six thousand, five hundred and nine (6,509) live ammunition were recovered from the syndicate during the operation.



Similarly, the Police team arrested a 7-man criminal syndicate that specializes in the manufacturing and supplies of locally fabricated AK-47 rifles and ammunition to bandits in forests along the Kaduna-Abuja expressway and funtua – kankara expressway in Katisina State. The suspects are; Dung Michael ‘m’ 26yrs, Dung James ‘m’ 29yrs, Bulus Iliya ‘m’ 25yrs, Markus Danladi ‘m’ 25yrs, Danjuma Dachu ‘m’ 25yrs all from Jos South and Samaila Abdullahi ‘m’ 45yrs from Toro in Bauchi State, Maek Danladi ‘m’ 30yrs from Chukum, Kaduna State. In a similar vein, one Abubakar Mohammed a.k.a Mallam Buzu from Mali who is a transnational gun-runner was arrested by the Police team in Tsamiya, a border town between Benin Republic and Nigeria. He was arrested with a GPMG ammunition chain drive with holding capacity of 1,600 rounds of ammunition.



In addition, three (3) suspects responsible for production of fake vehicle number plates including replica of number plates of government, diplomatic and security agencies were arrested. Investigations revealed that the suspects supply the number plates to criminal elements who use same to beat security checks during their operations. A total of eighty (80) fake number plates were recovered from the gang.


The Inspector General of Police, Ag. IGP Usman Alkali Baba, psc (+), NPM, fdc, while affirming that the kinetic and non-kinetic approaches targeted at re-ordering security in the country are already yielding positive results, reassures citizens of the renewed commitment of the Force to the fight against crimes and criminality. He calls for sustained support for the Police and the security community as efforts are intensified to enhance public safety, peace and security.



All the suspects will be charged to court on completion of investigations.

Where is that guy that was arguing with me, about local guns using 7 62 rounds?

I dated one igbo girl, her friends were very brash, and even her sister couldn't point her in the right decision.....even when she was wrong, that wasn't the issue, how I reacted was always the problem.....I'm beginning to see the same unrealistic tendencies in the post of most igbos online.
You attack people and don't expect them to react? Like, are you people on a large scale dumb, 0r you want the presidency given to you on a platter of gold without working for it.
It seems apart from how to make money, most igbos lack other smarts.

seankafor:
you re a fool by bringing Igbos to your côck filled mouth..

Did you finish secondary school?

Sirmuel1:
Why so much hate against the Ibos?

Oga nobody is hating the igbos, we too are disturbed that as smart as you guys claim, you are destroying yourselves

GeneralFarouq:
I hope this ain't true... We breeding trouble.
What baffles me is how stupid there
Y are... Showing their faces in vidoes, govt forces would be able to identify one or two of those pple... A good thing probably

I just read that the hijackers had been killed, well most of them, they were also the one's that assassinated the gulak man.

You will keep on with this foolishness, till you lose a close relative, then you will learn to speak the truth at all times. The pain you will feel from this loss, will help you become a better human.

I'm sorry I hardly do things out of emotions, I have had girls tell me I'm not capable of loving, but I'm one of the nicest people, same also they say I'm wicked, so please forgive me for what I would say next.
If my relative is been shot for been stupid by watching people shooting at themselves, for putting himself and the family through emotional stress, I would personally beat him to coma if he survives, because for been too stupid, he is a risk to himself and others, maybe he would be better dead.

DaddyGoo:
Regardless of who fired the fatal bullet; the number one job of government, whether local, state or federal is to provide security in the governed space.

Clearly they are failing if the state is embroiled in daily gun battles.

That my brother is why I blame the Army and their civilian bosses.

A full grown adult goes to act as spectator during a gun battle, even in sports spectators get hit all the time....is providing security not the reason for the shooting? Or the goverment will use word of mouth to achieve the security?

DaddyGoo:
How do we go loosing hearts and minds like this?!!

https://www.nairaland.com/6577951/army-shot-dead-only-son


And tomorrow person with evil intent will give this woman bomb to go and blow Government House.

Why will she not go?!

Sometimes I don't like herd mentality or i can hurt you, but you can't retaliate, that's the vibes I get from online comments from the east, did the soldiers walk up to murder the boy or there was an exchange of gun fire?
What's the certainty that it wasn't esn bullet that hit the boy?
Why tag along when there is a shooting going on, instead of getting safety.....alot of people aren't in touch with reality if you ask me.

Why come to blame the army, why not blame the esn attacking the army.
It is becoming sickening what is coming out from the east, and it's going to get worst.

Illumined939:
Nigerians took to the streets demanding for specific institutional reforms, the government knowing these young people bare no arms, sent soldiers to go mow them down at lekki tollgate. The guys on this thread, denied that the Nigerian Army were at the tollgate on 20 oct. 2020, not until the Army came out itself to say they were at the tollgate, but they shot blanks. Is it this same government you are referring to?

So the solution is to destroy ourselves instead of treating the injury? Give a chance first to do the right thing, If they don't, then strike again.....but to keep on striking without giving a chance for the government to act right is just inviting destruction that can't favour the already marginalised region.

DubaiLandLord1:
Fulanis herdsmen have killed more people than IPOB will ever dream of.

Fulanis herdsmen dey drive people comot their communities and then take over such communities in Benue state.

I go still like understand how IPOB became a terrorist group and Fulani heardsmen are not a terrorist group yet.

Can you try to imagine a peaceful igbo man, walking on the street of Owerri on him own, make he com knack a shirt with a Biafra logo on it. Just imagine say the Nigerian army catch this kin person, dem go treat am like say e b shekarau.

But this same people will tell you say there is a difference between fulanis herdsmen and bandits... But when is time to differentiate between a peaceful IPOB/ESN member and UGM, they will start telling you this groups are the same

The hypocrisy of this one nijiria people eh

This is why ESN should stop attacks and demand solutions from the Government, they have made their point, they have put the political class at the edge of their sit......anything further than this, without giving the government to act right is just outrightly been strategically inept, and pushing for doom.

Illumined939:
Okay we are waiting for you and your Army. I hope you will be among the soldiers deployed
to the east to help keep Nigeria one. As long as igbos will die in this war, Nigerian soldiers will surely die. Are you ready to die for the owners of Nigeria plc. (Dangote, Sultan of Sokoto, Obasanjo, Indimi family, etc.)? This fight will go on for as long as possible till both parties meet on the negotiating table. Isn't it sensible to negotiate now, than later? The way some of you reason on this thread is animalistic. No country survives 2 civil wars.

A wise man, looks for ways to avoid war, why don't you take time to do a bit of research , spend your money and watch war videos, not the doctored ones you see on CNN, that makes it look bad ass, that makes you say wow iron dome, with the level of attack esn has done, they have made their point, this would force those in government to act right and do right.....if the puppet masters of ipob/esn were smart this is the best time to stop attacks and make sensible demands other than secession.
Those hailing them now, would sell them out at the long run, the military Is giving room for wisdom to prevail, but seems the elder statesmen in the east aren't addressing the issue.

REVEALED: The 24 Army Officers Buhari Bypassed Over Ethnic, Religious Sentiments To Appoint Lesser Qualified Yahaya As Army Chief

Checks by SaharaReporters on the army’s document showed that most of the officers in line of seniority following the late Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen Ibrahim Attahiru, are from the South-West, South-East or Christians.

President Muhammadu Buhari bypassed no fewer than 24 top senior Nigerian Army officers to appoint Major-General Farouk Yahaya as the Chief of the Army Staff, according to a document, Seniority Roll Nigerian Army Officers 2021 (Revised) obtained by SaharaReporters on Friday.

The President, by appointing Yahaya, hitherto the Theatre Commander of Operation Hadin Kai in the North-East and from Regular Course 37, puts the 24 top army officers from Regular Courses 35 and 36, on the path of forceful retirement.

Military sources said Buhari might have appointed a less qualified Yahaya, from Sokoto State, based on the president’s usual ethnic and religious sentiments as seen in his other various appointments.

Checks by SaharaReporters on the army’s document showed that most of the officers in line of seniority following the late Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen Ibrahim Attahiru, are from the South-West, South-East or Christians.

Following Attahiru are: “Maj Generals J. O. Olawumi from Ekiti, J. O. Akomolafe from Kwara, C. O. Ude from Enugu, J. Oyefesobi from Ogun, M. O. Uzoh from Abia, C. C. Okonkwo from Imo, M. S. A. Aliyu from Zamfara, U. M. Muhammed from Niger and B. M. Shafa from Ogun.”

Others are: “N. E. Angbazo from Nasarawa, Y. P. Auta from Kebbi, A.S. Maikobi from Bauchi, B. Ahanotu from Anambra, S. A. Yaro from Bauchi, J. Sarham from Kano, H. E. Ayamasaowei from Bayelsa, O. F. Azinta from Enugu, B. A. Akinroluyo from Ondo, K. A. Y. Isiyaku from Niger, A. T. Haman from Borno, A. M. Aliyu from Gombe, H. P. Z. Vintekaba from Taraba, K. O. Kadiri from Lagos, and I. M. Yusuf from Yobe.”

While Olawumi and nine others - Akomolafe, Ude, Oyefesobi, Uzoh, Okonkwo, Aliyu, Muhammed, Shafa and Angbazo were promoted to the rank of Major General in 2016, Yahaya and others did not become Major Generals till 2017.

The new army chief, Yahaya, now 55 years old, was taken by the Nigerian Army Infantry Corps on September 22, 1990.

When Buhari appointed the present crop of service chiefs only in January, no fewer than 20 generals from the three services who were members of courses 34 and accepted 35 were retired to pave way for them.

They were course mates with the Chief of Defence Staff, General Lucky Irabor from Course 34; late Chief of Army Staff, Lt General Ibrahim Attahiru from Course 35; Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral A.Z Gambo, and the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Isiaka Amao, also from Course 35.

From as far back as 2015, as Buhari began to make his early appointments, there have been public outcries of nothernisation agenda which the President has done little or nothing to prove wrong with subsequent appointments.

In 2018, former President Olusegun Obasanjo wrote an open letter to Buhari, asking him not to bother to seek re-election.

In the letter, the former President cited among others, Buhari's “nepotistic deployment bordering on clannishness”. Also, a retired Colonel Abubakar Umar, former military governor of Kaduna State, accused Buhari of nepotism, saying it could tear the country apart.

“Nigeria has become dangerously polarised and risks sliding into crisis on account of your administration’s lopsided appointments, which continue to give undue preference to some sections of the country over others,” Umar said.
