You are illiterate!

Who said anything about manufacturing. I'm referring to actual quantities.

the guy doesn't even know whatvhe's saying

MikeCZAR:
"Train as you're going to fight".

They might be engaged anytime.

Training is for this you think you'll be trained to carry 80kg and match for 20km+ for nothing?

Like I said, you have no idea what you are talking about.

Such training is for when you are on patrol, recon, or moving about in areas of possible enemy activity.

Not when you are mobilizing to go and engage your enemy at a given target more than 4km away. In cases like this you are to travel light to save energy.

They know which route is high risk or not. It's not for you to tell them from your computer.

You think these guys are newbies in warfare? Guy park well abeg.

MikeCZAR:
Part of basic Infantry training.

20kg+ Load
Webbing.
Rifle.
15km+

Even if they have other stuff in the vehicles they should have their webbing and helmetss on.

dude, seriously, you need to stop thinking you know stuff when you know nothing.

those guys on vehicles are obviously kitted because they won't be walking. you don't understand the weather in the north. it's dry+hot+dusty.

this is not training. those men will be engaged once they get to their destination. there is no sense having them worn out before they do.

it's not a photo session. it's a time to use your brain. travel light so you can have all the energy to fight.

celeron40:
Why are the troops not fully dressed? Most of them look like its a picnic they are going for.

are you kidding me. walk 4km fully kitted? don't forget the harsh weather up north. they'll probably leave supplies and other stuff in those trucks and APCs. as you can see some trucks are packed up.

no be hollywwod matter o bros.

FighterPilot:
The truth has now been revealed. Due to my closeness to Afrikaanse gemeenskap because of my bloodline, I have been able to meet with people who had the information about the developments around South Africans in Nigeria. It is by no any bias to reveal to you that the Nigerian government truly hired SA mercenaries and not technicians as they claim. This information only arise after the death of Leon who was a former member of Koevoet and now the Afrikaans community is in rage with the ANC government that cannot give them jobs.

It has been revealed that many of these mercenaries whom some are serving in Iraq are mainly made up of young Afrikaner boys and Couloureds. In Nigeria, however South Africans did not want to work hand in hand with the local force because some of them were suspected of having been compromised to insurgents. They were being suspected of having spies among them whom would collect information about their activities and communicate it to terrorists. These mercenaries are doing the job as they could confirm to their fellow compatriots in SA and the military is doing the clean up. They should ensure as always that their engagements is kept secret, but they are now most certain that their cover has now been blown out because of the death of their colleague.

However, it only happened that fateful day they were asked to incooperate with the local army so that they could learn one or two about their skills, little did they know that they were about to lose the life of a colleague and mentor. The army mistakened his convoy on the road as Boko harm and one tank shot at them.

Example......If Nigerian troops were in a fire fight with troops from country X today. Nigerian troops have their vehicles destroyed, but manage to capture two enemy Reva armoured vehicles. You're saying a detachment of Nigerian soldiers wouldnt be able to commandeer those vehicles and fight their way out? They would have to first send and email to Reva headquarters in SA, to ask them to send in trainers to show them how to start, drive and use Reva weapons.

Keep selling that sad story.

keep trying to convince yourself. if your mechanics were fighting, the government and military would not deny it.

Senior military commanders described the claims
which were reported in select international
media and culled by some local newspapers as “a
joke taken too far”. The officers however said that the so called
mercenaries are foreign technical advisers that
are providing trainings and instructions on the
use of new armaments recently procured by the
Nigerian military in the war on terror.

Testimonials Nigerian army troops on the frontline


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohERfl-DUgc&feature=player_embedded

very good. the heroes of konduga. these guys have been exeptional.

this is what our lazy media should be doing. tell our stories instead of letting foreigners pass wrong infos about this war.

saengine:
No South African engineering company will send its engineers and technicians to a foreign, active war zone. When i say war zone i mean the actual front line. Training on equipment can be provided to troops, in a quiet, non conflict zone. It is then up to that country's specific army to develop the tactics and maneuvers of how best they want to utilize that equipment.

I have even purposefully left out the most important part, which you clearly have not even thought about. No South African company can fight a war, or engage in a battle on behalf of another country. It is stated law. If our defence minister says mercenaries will be arrested on return, what do you think will happen to registered, tax paying companies? They will be shut down immediately, never to produce one single bolt of a Reva armoured car again. You think the owners and producers of Reva vehicles will risk their company, profit and future orders over Boko Haram? Willing to have their company shut down over Boko Haram and Nigeria? Think again.

Equipment can be supplied. But providing combat assistance on an active war front is illegal. So keep believing the "on the job training" story. It is highly trained, battled hardered mercenaries on the front line. Being paid in cash, and who are hard to trace. Those are the men fighting for you. Not an engineer with a Bsc degree coming over to risk their lives.

you are a complete numbskull. i don't need to finish reading this balderdash you wrote before concluding that your logic is as flawed as your brain capacity to reason properly.

that being said, a country can buy weapons from a company and contract another private firm to bring in mercs who have experience with such weapons to train it's forces how to use them on the field. especially in the case of Nigera. therw just wasn't time for training on these new weapons. which military doesn't require training for new weapons?

seriously, it's not rocket science

Msauza:
SA is starting to get the blames.


http://news.yahoo.com/sa-mercenaries-nigeria-apartheid-era-veterans-still-finding-235235687.html

and of you understood what you read, you would have seen this;

"To be honest, I don't think they are being used
anymore in combat... simply because those guys are
pushing 60 or 70."

what else would a 59 uear old be doing than mechanic work in combat?

saengine:
[s]What i find amazing.....a credible South African engineering company will send it's highly trained engineers and technicians to train Nigerians in the middle of a hot, dangerous battle zone. Men with families back home, good standards of living, good carreer prospects will go into a battle zone, front line, bullets flying. Almost having to shoot at Boko Haram themselves, since Nigerian soldiers are apparently still clueless at doing this.

No standard engineering company will send its employees into such danger. You cannot be above age 12 and believe the "providing technical training on new equipment story" . Companies who are willing to send employees into such conditions, would send men who have been in war zones before and have seen hard, heavy combat.

You can keep lying to yourself and believe these men are just walking around there with spanners and grease. When everyone knows they are highly skilled fighters.[/s]

your opinion=HIGHLY IRRELEVANT

ALJAZEERA SPEAKS TO JONATHAN. ( VIDEO)



sources have told Al Jazeera that
mercenaries from South Africa and other
countries are actually playing a decisive
fighting role on the frontlines.
A senior Nigerian non-commissioned officer,
who is on active duty and was wounded by
Boko Haram, said foreign mercenaries are
doing the bulk of the fighting in towns the
Nigerian military says it has recaptured from
Boko Haram.
The officer said that the Nigerian military still
suffers from a lack of equipment and low
morale, and that without the mercenaries'
help, these towns would still be held by Boko
Haram fighters.



http://www.aljazeera.com/news/africa/2015/03/nigeria-foreign-mercenaries-boko-haram-150313122039403.html

sources also told aljazeera that Nigerian army killed 3000 civilians in a village.

till today the fake news is known as a fat lie. rubbish

Msauza:
Pres never said that, he said they are training military, that's all that he said.

He also said that foreign technicians are present in the
northeast to teach Nigerian troops on how to use their
new weapons, since there wasn’t time to train the
troops before they deployed. “So we now have this technical
people who are trainers
and technicians, who are to train our people on how to use them, and technicians that help the maintenance,
at the same time training our people how to maintain
this equipment,” Jonathan said.

you should really be worried about this your inability to comprehend what you read. this is no joke man.

Msauza:
Is @agaugust still denying that there are mercenaries on his country? You are late, Jonathan confirmed it on international platform, of course he couldn't stand the heat for too long.

so now you think our president isva credible source. do you also know he said they are just mechanics? dumbo

burn the house covertly and divorce her. that kin woman fit kill am

Msauza:
And so what?

even if i don't doubt your ability to read, i do know you lack comprehension among other qualities.

so i won't bother.

a very interesting read. especially for the gullible and extreemly stup1d south africans who will believe anything the western medias print without proper scrutiny.

confirmed by Nigerian journalists not some far away pultzer winners who don't know sh1t

ABUJA — Nigerian troops yesterday finally succeeded in clearing terrorists out of Madagali, the last Local Government area held by Boko Haram terrorists in Adamawa State. Director, Defence Information, Major General Chris Olukolade, who has been on a tour mission in the North-East, disclosed that there was no casualties on the side of the Nigerian forces, which included the Army, Airforce and other security agencies. Meanwhile mopping up is ongoing to recover arms and other dangerous weaponry used by the terrorists even as many of the terrorists were killed. It will be recalled that a week ago, following 2 days of heavy fighting between Special Forces of the Nigerian military backed by Nigerian Airforce fighter aircraft, commenced the battle to fully liberate Madagali and Gulag, another major community under the control of Boko Haram terrorists. The fight for the liberation of Madagali and Gulag resulted in scores of the Terrorists being killed and heavy weaponry recovered and this was received with jubilation in Adamawa State with many indigenes of the areas hailing the gallantry of the Nigerian military.

Look how emotional these sub-humans are getting

Before foreigners arrived you tasted only defeat!

South African mercanaries as well as soldiers from Chad, Niger and Cameroon are liberating them. Confirmed by hundreds of sources.

It is you whom is stealing out glory

this video proves otherwise. your mercs are just mechanics

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtQQsnS7udM

Msauza:
Your military has bought REVA III as proven here with sources dummy. Some are even used as Ambulances.

msausa. please now is the time to prove you are not as stup1d as thought. show us the proof that we bought mk 3. not stories

Patchesagain:
Go argue with the New York Times and other internationally respected pultzer prize winning organizations.

Facts are facts: South Africans are liberating Nigeria

no need to stress anything. just listen to the journalist.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtQQsnS7udM

he said Nigerian army was advancing on that town(which he confirmed with his own eyes), and as at yesterday madagali has been taken.
no whites on the aircraft as assumed by your pultzer winners and no mercs among the advancing army. dumb rats


proved beyond just story telling. we survey our airspace. we liberate our country. SA mechanics repair our trucks for operations.

Picture 2. South African Reva MK III APCs.

No further words necessary.

no need to waste your smelly breath.

Nigeria acquired Reva MK 5 MRAPs. not MK III.

stop trolling

The President Finally Speaks concerning SA mechanics.

He also said that foreign technicians are present in the
northeast to teach Nigerian troops on how to use their
new weapons, since there wasn’t time to train the
troops before they deployed. “So we now have this technical people who are trainers
and technicians, who are to train our people on how to
use them, and technicians that help the maintenance,
at the same time training our people how to maintain
this equipment,” Jonathan said. He said two unnamed companies were involved in the
training but declined to offer nationalities or numbers
of the trainers.

My son could have give a better comment.

i doubt your son has a brain. since he's your son

Msauza:
Does it even matter when mercenary ended up as mechanic in Nigeria and died with fellow Nigerian soldiers on a warzone?

yes it does. so you dummies can shut up about SA mercs flying jets and helicopters. or engaging in combat ops.

just mechanics is okay. he died fixing our truck.

FighterPilot:
At one point I was also lured to join one of these companies because of the money that was involved. Mercenaries earn from $20 000 to $50 000 and some earn even more than the President of their host countries. Those people, one thing for sure is that they will suck Nigeria dry. I bet you. If the wealthy US could complain about their billions of money which was used to pay those people, what of poor Nigeria? Many of them are paid far more than Jonathan.

i was also lured to join the navy seals but i refused. see? easy.

for the rest of your cries....... no need.

Msauza:
SA is a world recognized country to have mercenaries all over the world. That's why the ANC terminated their service because their ever growing activities in the world.

Mr Lots was a mercenary as accepted by his wife and it ends there

no doubt. but ended up a mechanic in Nigeria. too bad

Msauza:
THE MEN WHO ARE GIVING EXERCISES TO RAG TAG NIGERIAN MILITARY WHICH IN TURN ONLY END UP KILLING THEM OUT OF THEIR INCOMPETENCE AND UNWILLINGNESS TO BE LEARN.

slow down with the grammar. the rest of your useless koevet mechanics are in good hands

Patchesagain:
The sad state of Nigeria has resulted in you hiring our expert mercs from SA countries to help you repair vehicles you are not familiar with. very sad

very sad indeed.
