Can you identify the platform in which the third picture was taken?

Exactly Bokoharam has been trying to invade the place. NAF just got unlucky with this.

Was there no Air surveillance deployed before the operation?

BHT has been trying to attack the camp before NAF bombed it thinking thinking it was BHT advance they bombed.

That is the number plate with SPY Supernumerary Number .

I don't think he's permitted according to the law.

IbnSultaan:
Gambia

I heard NA entered Gambia already. Waiting for pictures.

Is the last picture here not in Ibadan?

leofab:
Worthless show of power.. if it's Ethiopia, Egypt, Algeria or South Africa, will Nigeria and Senegal be doing all these ?

Is Ethiopia West Africa?

Lighthouseman:
[s]The command and control Centre of the airforce taking snapshots?
They still use paper maps?? no wonder the would bomb an IDP camp.
Well... This isn't Nigeria's war... It's a diplomacy lacking. The carrot giving to jammeh isn't enough before welding the stick.
If I was jammeh I would have run to a federal high court in Nigeria restraining the president etal from sending troops to Gambia[/s]

Rubbish

Henry240:
Oga, I find this your comment to b very offensive. You should post comments with facts, not some random opinion when making comparisons.


Nigeria is not second to anybody in Africa

We flew 6777 hours of combat sorties in support of Operation Lafiya Dole in 2016 without any form of incidence.

That's the figure for the North-East for 2016.

We also flew in the North-West, North-Central, South-South and South-East.

Nobody in Sub-Saharan Africa flew this much for a single operation. Nigeria's total figure is higher.

There are 30 combat videos released by the Air Force in 2016, all of these combat sorties showed a military with an unmatched professionalism.


Please, do not post comments on things you do not know.

Thank you.

They are coming for you soon.

[Updated] Nigerian air force overflies Gambia, have capacity to strike – Official
The Nigerian air force is flying over The Gambia, an official said Thursday, as African troops seemed ready to force incumbent Yahya Jammeh to quit after his December election defeat.

President-elect Adama Barrow was sworn in at the country’s embassy in Senegal, while Jammeh has continued to cling on to power.

Jammeh initially acknowledged president-elect Adama Barrow as the victor in the December vote but later rejected the result.

“I confirm that the armed reconnaissance air force are over Gambia,” Nigerian Air Force spokesman Ayodele Famuyiwa told AFP.

“They have the capacity to strike.”

Famuyiwa said that negotiations were still ongoing with Jammeh, a leader who has ruled the West African country for 22 years.

“What we understand right now is that it appears he’s trying to reconsider his position, he may stand down,” Famuyiwa said, speaking from Abuja.

“But we have our troops there and they are there to enforce the mandate.”

The UN Security Council was set to vote Thursday on backing ECOWAS efforts to force Jammeh to hand over power as the West African regional bloc amassed a military force ready to intervene.

The Economic Community Of West African States has repeatedly called on Jammeh to accept his defeat and honour the country’s constitution.

Which West Africa country has the gut to invade NIgeria?

This was the coup coached by Nigerian Army IBB boys in 1994.

Monday 25 July 1994
BANJUL - A US warship took the ousted Gambian President, Sir Dawda Jawara, from Banjul to Dakar yesterday while the leader of the coup which toppled him received ambassadors and religious leaders.
Senegal said it had granted Sir Dawda and his family political asylum. The US tank-landing ship La Moure County carried Sir Dawda, the first of his two wives Lady Chilele Jawara, and about 14 of his 19 children as well as senior officials to the capital of neighbouring Senegal.

Religious figures who met coup leader Lieutenant Yayeh Jameh said he told them that he and Sir Dawda had spoken but failed to agree terms for the president to return. They said Lieutenant Jameh told them that Sir Dawda had offered to come back and 'rectify his mistakes' but Lieutenant Jameh insisted he could only return as a private citizen.

Sir Dawda fled to the US ship after army officers on Saturday announced a coup against him, after what had begun as a rampage through Banjul on Friday by soldiers demanding back pay for peace-keeping duties in Liberia.

Gambia is bordered on three sides by Senegal and on the fourth by the Atlantic Ocean. Its beaches are a popular tourist destination. Some 1,500 British holidaymakers were able to telephone home as international services were restored yesterday, but they could not leave as Banjul's airport and Gambia's borders remained closed.

A British diplomat in Banjul reported that there had been 'no violence at all' in the coup. A British tour operator, Stephen Wilde, said: 'There is no panic and the only people who are concerned are people whose holidays were due to end today. We're hoping to bring them out on Tuesday.'

Lieutenant Jameh received the British High Commissioner and the Senegalese ambassador, who brought a message from President Abdou Diouf to the new four-member provisional ruling council saying Senegal, which sent troops to halt an attempt to oust Sir Dawda in 1981, would not interfere this time.

Officials said 10 Nigerian officers working with the military had been placed under house arrest. They included the former commander of the 800-strong Gambian army, Colonel Boubakar Dada, who was preparing to leave Gambia. His replacement, Colonel Lawan Gwadabe who took office last month, is currently in Nigeria.

A private radio station broadcast a communique appealing to people to report for work today and asking permanent secretaries to assume the duties of government ministers who have fled or are under detention. The capital was calm, the market was open and people were going about their business normally. An overnight curfew was in force between 7pm and 7am.

Officials said the finance minister and inspector general of police were also on the US ship. They said the justice minister had been arrested, as had the information minister and Vice President Saihou Sabally. The Education Minister, Alieu Badjie, gave himself up on Saturday morning. The Interior Minister, Lamine Kiti Jabang, took refuge in Senegal's southern province of Casamance, near the Gambian border.

Sir Dawda returned to Banjul on Thursday from a holiday at his London residence. He was prime minister when Gambia gained independence from Britain in 1965, and became president when it became a republic in 1970.

On Saturday the British government 'strongly deplored' the mutiny, and the Commonwealth said the coup represented a tragedy for Gambia

JF-17 BLOCK-II PRODUCTION CROSSES 30 PLANES
In December 2016, PAC announced that it delivered a total of 70 JF-17s to the PAF since the fighter was inducted in 2010-2011. This would mean that 20 JF-17 Block-IIs were inducted (in 2016), but this figure evidently did not include the total number of Block-II fighters produced. Considering that 16 JF-17s were built in 2015, PAC must have rolled out at least 17 JF-17s in 2016.
PAC may have also produced units for export. It is not clear if these units are counted in the “2P-XX” bracket. PAC is aiming to gradually increase its annual production to 20-24 aircraft. However, if the PAF’s Block-II needs are fulfilled in 2017, PAC would be able to commit the remaining year(s) until JF-17 Block-III for exports.

I don't think Nigeria is sending ground forces to Gambia

http://bbc.in/2jLlM9V

Nigerian navy vessels are also on standby and a warship that sailed from Lagos on Tuesday will have the task of evacuating Nigerian citizens while putting on a show of force.

If we need to evacuate our citizens I think another vessel will be on ground and not NNS Unity.

jteku:
Off topic.

Nigerian police presidential outriders are just the best.

So beautiful.

Haha Our troops are Oscar Mike.

Henry240:
The ship would be off the Coast of Gambia. If things escalate, which I doubt would happen the boat stands ready to support with 76mm's.

It's hard to say, out at sea is more like it.


It seems 2 Nigerian Alpha jets and a Survelliance plane would soon depart for Senegal. Unconfirmed at this point.

Any West African country with a 4th generation aircraft?
I don't think The Gambia military will be stupid enough to shoot down our Jet .

Henry240:
Currently tracking NNS Unity. The ship is now off the Coast of Abidjan. The ship would soon reach Gambia.

Destination Gambia or Senegal? Will she be cleared to stay at a naval base in The Gambia without the base being in control of friendly forces?

nemesis2u:

Haha . My Intel says so.
