i really think you should stop your copy and paste low pay job! You dont even read and understand what you copy and paste! If you read your original post carefully, you will come to discover that the article was written just when OBJ became president in '99. Thats when we retired 100 officers at a go.

At that time, we've not built our Igirigi, our Aradu, our OBJ 006, our Amebos, our 5 sattelites, better helmets, night vission glasses and desert camouflage. Our f-7s, NNS Thunder and fast attack boats were not delivered then.

We did not have MEND and BOKO ARE RAMS back then which means our secret intelligent services are better now than they were back then.

And then when a Selela commander admitted we killed over 250 men in his unit alone you still refused to admit that we also "won". We had a huge kill ratio, more than 10:1 but your pride was too much to admit that South African soldiers put up a fantastic fight. You made fun on us, you spoke too soon.

Now you have your own CAR/Bangui/Seleka situation on your own hands, and worse ON YOUR HOME SOIL. 16 of your own troops killed on their motherland. 15 of our troops killed 1000's of kilometres from home.....who looks more stupid now. What happened to your so called IFV's....at least you had heavy armour and airforce to back you up. But still.

I dont celebrate death. RIP to those Nigerian soldiers and i hope they find the 9 missing soldiers alive, but this is a lesson to YOU not to talk so fast next time.

And just to add one more bit. This happened over the weekend, but your army only admitted it on Tuesday. What kind of pathetic military structure is that? What were they trying to hide/change in those two days. How long does it take to count 16 bodies?
Have you forgotten they can't count in Naija remember 40÷3=16 in Naija

zetdee: Nigerian Soldiers Beat Up Brigade Commander Over Anti-boko Haram Deployment

Soldiers attached to the 333 Artillery Regiment in Maiduguri, and serving under the newly established 37 Brigade, have beaten up their Acting Brigade Commander, Colonel O.U. Obono for allegedly slapping one of them, reliable defence sources have told PREMIUM TIMES.
Sources, who witnessed the incident but asked not to be named for their own safety, told PREMIUM TIMES  the incident occurred on Monday, September 4 at the 333 Battalion parade ground while the soldiers were on night roll call, known as tatoon in military parlance.
The sources said the soldiers became angry and attacked the officers after he announced the deployment of the soldiers to various special operations in Borno state shortly after their return from a peacekeeping operation in Mali.
“Trouble started when Colonel Obono decided to deploy the Soldiers, and the boys were annoyed because they were supposed to go on ‘disembarkation leave’ for two weeks having just returned from Mali, and they began to show open contempt, the Colonel then slapped one of them and they now became agitated and beat him up,” one of our sources, a defence insider, said.
He said the officer became especially agitated and slapped a soldier “because he had the audacity to ask for the troop’s “mission allowance”.
He said the troops started returning to the country from Mali on July 31,  but were not allowed to proceed on leave before being deployed for the anti-Boko Haram operation in Maiduguri.
We also gathered that apart from the soldier, Colonel Obono also slapped a Major Idris for trying to restrain him from physically attacking his junior colleagues.
Another  military source said the Military Police, the discipline enforcement unit of the army,  already commenced investigation into the incident, adding that what the Colonel did was ‘against military tradition’.
PREMIUM TIMES learnt  that Colonel Obono, with Army number N/8306 was appointed acting commander of the newly established 37 Brigade Maiduguri on August, 20 via memo with Reference No. AHQ/MS/G1/300/207/1.
The spokesperson for the Army, Major General Ibrahim Attahiru, wouldn’t comment for this story.  He did not answer or return calls to his mobile telephone for two weeks running. He also did not respond to three text messages sent to him on separate days.

Pakistan is a nuclear power with many nuclear bombs...and Pakistan has social/public electricity supply problems just like Nigeria.

meanwhile, nigeria is now investing billions of dollars in electricity production and in about 2 years, it will be near perfect as we have signed huge contracts with very successful electricity power companies from Canada, China, South Korea, and Britain in the last 9 months.

Nigeria is advancing too fast for you to comprehend in your soweto bucket holes where you guys are stuck and never travel overseas cheesy

nice post..... one of the reasons Nigerian military is ranked above the military of Algeria, Ethiopia, and South Africa.

Egypt will have a very tough time fighting nigeria, they have a much bigger force, but they have to be very careful with a Nigerian military force that fights from outer space.


Nigeria will soon add long range missiles when Epe project is completed and then we add the Nuclear weapons from the proposed Russian built reactor to supersede the mini nuclear reactor currently operating in Abuja.

then Nigeria will be among the 12 nuclear weapon armed powers of this world....

cheesy then maybe we march into pretoria and re-colonize south africa....just like the Boer....Nigeria becomes new colonial masters and supreme ruler of south africa cheesy

long live nigeria, the giant of africa !

Sorry we already has nuclear power station and we dismantlEd our own nuclear heads we walk the talk other talk the walk OMG a country which still cannot provide the basic amenities like 24h electricity clean water can really dream about. Nuclear anyway is just a dream

Nigeria should enlist America’s help in war against Boko Haram

The rise in violence by Boko Haram in the last couple of weeks since it was claimed by the Nigerian Army that its leader, Abubakar Shekau, had been killed, could be true afterall. The violence shows that there is a new leader at the helm of affairs who is out to stamp his authority on the evil group.
When one looks at the history of terror in the world, when a new leader comes on board, he usually starts with a campaign of terror to announce his ‘assumption’ of office, and this has been the case since it became public knowledge that Shekau had been killed a couple of months ago.
However, I want the Federal Government of Nigeria to enlist the help of the United States of America in the war against Boko Haram. The US has the necessary military equipment which it can assist the country with. The spying drones, which are capable of carrying warheads, will be useful in this situation.
It is a known fact that it will be difficult for Nigerian soldiers to master the rocky terrains in Borno, where members of Boko Haram are now believed to be hiding. However, the drones will help the military attack these terrorists, while minimising its own casualties.
A couple of years ago, the Nigerian government sent a satellite into space. The Chinese-built satellite, which cost hundreds of millions of dollars, it was claimed, would help the country map out certain areas where it would be difficult of humans to go.
Unfortunately, till date, we have not really had any instance when we can say the satellite has been useful. Last year, we had a terrible flood disaster in some parts of the country, but the satellite was not able to give us images of affected areas which were cut off.
Again, it is said that members of the Boko Haram are holed up in some mountains in Borno State; the satellite could have been useful in this regards, by passing the necessary information across to the military on the exact location of the terrorists, but this is not the case. Should we now say that we built the satellite just for the fun of it?
I, therefore, want the authorities in charge of the satellite to tell Nigerians its usefulness, and why it was so important that we sent one to space at a cost of millions of dollars.
However, before we know the usefulness of Nigeria’s satellite in space, I think the Federal Government should just call the United States to assist it in tackling the menace of Boko Haram.
The president, Dr Goodluck Jonathan, cannot continue to say the military is winning the war when people are still being killed on a daily basis. It seems the members of the Civillian JTF are now the targets of the terrorists, with the way they are being attacked . The Federal Government should quickly ask for help, and as far as I know, there is no harm in asking
Crag you can send a thousand satelite to space but if you do not have the receivers on the ground to decipher that data it becomes useless I suspect is the case with the above info

NaijaPikinGidi:

That remains wasteful ... no use! No qualified pilots. I could go on! Why are you waiting to take Rooivalks and hardware to DRC if not because your SANDF is insisting that the UN must pay immediately for the cost of the deployments. That's the difference between Nigeria and your South Africa. Nigeria deploys men and hardware first ... at our own cost and asks for UN reimbursement later. So much for South African "big budget"! cool
That is why the below happened I said before your leaders know nothing about budget that is why your country is a shithole“ The soldiers may not come back home soon.
After months of hardship caused by inadequate provision of basic essentials and non-payment of allowances, the horrible condition of Nigerian troops serving as part of the African-led International Support Mission in Mali, AFISMA, is beginning to give way for improved welfare, PREMIUM TIMES has learnt.
According to defence sources, the troops have been paid two months arrears out of the three months arrears they were previously owed. Their nutrition has also improved as our source said they are now adequately fed. This is a departure from the days when they resorted to soliciting food from their host community and having to make do with eating plain boiled spaghetti.
The military blamed the initial hiccup experienced in delivering the provisions on time on bureaucratic bottleneck.
“I’m not in the mission but I know that the condition for feeding and everything have been a victim of the bureaucracy I told you about,” said Chris Olukolade, Director of Defence Information.
While denying that a percentage of the troops allowances has been unscrupulously deducted and mismanaged, Mr. Olukolade said it was the practice of the military to save part of the allowances of soldiers on international assignments and that this would eventually be paid to them at the end of their tour.
“It not a case of anyone trying to deny them their allowances, they are aware that some part of their allowances is being kept for them in savings. It is a norm that they are aware of, it is their property, which nobody will deny them at the end of the mission; it is in their name. Nobody can steal one kobo of that from them,” he said.
Homecoming not in sight
Mr. Olukolade, however, said that no date has been fixed for the troops to return home despite completing the initial six months period of the mission. He said that the decision is subject to an on-going discussion between politicians and international organisations.
Many of the Nigerian soldiers have complained of being left in Mali for more than the six months they were promised, saying their families were suffering back home.
“There is a lot going on in the diplomatic circus now which I may not be in the position to comment on right now until this is settled at the realm of political leadership and international organizations involved in the mission,”Mr. Olukolade stated.
Meanwhile, some officers of the Nigerian Army have called to thank PREMIUM TIMES for its consistent reporting on the suffering of Nigerian soldiers in Mali.
“Thanks for your efforts so far,” a military source in Abuja said in a message to this newspaper. “It has been very helpful. Our troops would have continued to go through hell if not for your publications.”   
This paper had in a series of articles reported how troops were poorly fed, and owed allowances. In one particularly embarrassing case, we reported how the situation of the troops got so dire that they resorted to soliciting food from their host community.
Last February, the Prefect of Tuban in the Banamga region of Mali gave them 50 bags of rice and a cow. The army said it did not solicit  the food item. It claimed it was merely a gift from an appreciative host.
In June, we reported that the troops were owed up to three months unpaid allowances. Immediately after our report, the defence headquarters summoned the the contingent’s financial officer, Captain R.M. Okenwa to Abuja. He returned to Bamako on June 3o with two-month allowances for the soldiers as well as several bags of rice  and garri.
In one instance, the military resorted to threat to quieten our reportage of the troops austere situation. A certain Major General Ugor called this reporter and threatened to arrest him if he refused to disclose his sources.”
