UPDATE: Unknown Immigration officers also killed Unknown Gunmen after they burnt their building in Abia State.


Video- https://twitter.com/mobilisingniger/status/1399458108896854020?s=19[/quote]I've been processing how this lightly armed guys are able to burn down supposedly well defended locations. Seeing the low casualties on the defending side, it is reasonable to assume that the buildings are being set on fire from a stand off distance with molotov cocktails and other crude incendiary bombs. It will even be wise to send the would be defenders into panic by setting the buildings they are inside on fire and also distracting them just before the attack.
If these buildings had fire extinguishers, sand buckets and water reels like any reasonable buildings should have, many of them will still be in use today.

BUHARI is responsible for this! He's a man without empathy and emotional intelligence. As a father of the nation, he was meant to reconcile and come to amicable resolutions. Instead, he seems to have no bearing or clues.

His 5% statement alone slowly confined FG support in the East to a bare minimal. Their best resolution of the farmer-herder crises was to force down RUGA and statements like 'Giving land for ranching is better than death' clearly enraged others. Banditry & Kidnapping in the NW started as a result of farmer-herder clashes, yet he still managed to ignore that and here we are.

The hydra from SW,SE and other places started from groups who set up to resist herding but has now escalated beyond that with criminals and others taking advantage of the situation!

Rumors has it that ISWAP are massively restrategizing since Yusuf’s son took over. Everyone (Military & Civilians) is on alert . I’m kinda scared now since the rumoured ISWAP takeover Sambisa area.

We are just watching

Stephandesward:
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:
I agree with you on stregnthning the LG. I believe we should have a central INEC that will be in charge of conducting every election (presidential election, federal and state assembly election and local government elections). State police, LG police should also be established.

The Tivs wanted a referendum for states to be created in the Northern region, Awolowo wanted the Yorubas in present day Kwara and Kogi to have a referendum to decide if they still want to be in the Northern region or Western region, the minorities in the Eastern region also wanted a state to be created for them.

The politicians messed up things after independence and the military com scatter everything pata pata.

Illumined939:
Lol..you are being careful, you already shot yourself on the foot. Stop defending nonsense. The Buhari you are defending no send anybody papa. Buhari doesn't care about Nigerians, he only cares about his tribal interests. For those of you nationalists defending his decision, well....

Illumined939:
You trying to say the other seniors are northerners, like no southerner?
Does it mean that most southerners are retired in time, compared to their northern counterparts?

Illumined939:
Say it as it is oga. The Generals you mentioned are igbos and not from the north. You people on this thread, in your bid to come out as nationalists, try so hard to not say the conspicuous truth. I pity the southern
recruits whose lives will be wasted in Borno.

Stormtrooper11:
Its too wide. Hope this guy bring his [b]infantry [/b]tactics to bear.

Seems the incoming COAS has corruption allegations against him

JOSCOFELIX:
it is their tradition. you dare not arrested a serving military personal whether a Nco or Co officer without and authorized from the military police department

JOSCOFELIX:
for those saying efcc have the right to arrested a serving military official , you guys are completely wrong. the military police is the only institution responsible for arrest, detain and transferring of military case to civilian court. if efcc wanted arresting the general, they would have write to the military high command, especially the military police department with prove of the allegation level against the general.

Stormtrooper11:
Seriously, i don't like this selection. Maj gen Yahya is of 37rc. We skipped at least 15 Generals. They might retire Sarham. Look at Maj Gen Ahanaotu for heaven sakes. That is a very high ranking and experienced officer. Look at Maj. Gen Ezugwu too. Anyways they have their reasons.

sanctity454:
I pray our insecurity issues reduces, may Allah guide and protect him.
Will there be retirement of officers above him in seniority?

sanctity454:
Do you think this will perform well?

Stormtrooper11:
Funnily, i wanted MAJ-GEN Sarham. Hope this one will perform well

DubaiLandLord1:
With this kin glaring corruption case sef, GMB don suppose ask the ONSA pga to step aside by now. The oga of NPA was told to step aside because of a corruption case on top her head without the case even getting to the court.

If this kin corruption case nah for USA, do you think the ONSA oga go still dey sit on top that seat by now? Make we dey reason things well abeg!

The Nigerian constitution supercede all things, you can't be giving an excuse for this, then start pointing fingers at a person supporting IPOB.

Why should a court in Abuja declare IPOB mostly filled up with igbos and mostly operating in igbo land of terrorism? wetin concern the Court in Abuja with wetin dey happen for igbo land?

Hennynitan:
Can you listen to yourself? How can you justify soldiers preventing a judgment of the court of law from taking place

Let's not get used to nonsense in this country

DubaiLandLord1:
Mtchewww

All in the bid to look smart, una go dey talk trash

Is the ICC recognized by the American constitution? China does not listen to the ICC, Russia does not listen to the ICC.

Una don dey use to lawlessness, you steal public money, A valid court of law in Nigeria pass a judgement, you dey here dey talk rubbish about jurisdiction.

Show me where a military personnel is accused of corruption in the USA, and american military personnel go dey block FBI from doing their jobs.

No wander someone called Nigeria a zoo.

IMO, our problem is weak institutions. We have not invested in our institutions. Whatever system we adopt, it is humans that makes it work

Some soldiers attached to the Office of the National Security Adviser yesterday prevented operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) from marking some of the property belonging to the Director of Finance in the ONSA, Brig.-Gen. Jafaru Mohammed.

The property are under an interim forfeiture order.

Justice Folashade Giwa-Ogunbanjo of the Federal High Court, Abuja, had, on March 9, 2021, granted an ex-parte application brought by the EFCC for an interim order of forfeiture over some identified property linked to the senior military officer.

The court also ordered the EFCC to publicise the interim forfeiture of the assets and invited people “who may have interest in the assets and properties listed in the schedule to show cause, within 14 days of such publication, why a final order of forfeiture to the Federal Government of Nigeria of the said assets and properties should not be made.”

Residents of Sun City, an upscale housing estate on the outskirt of Abuja, reported a near stand-off yesterday morning between EFCC operatives and military men in plain cloth and uniform at one of the assets located in the estate.

Daily Trust gathered that stern-looking soldiers stationed at one of the houses located at No 25, Osaka Street, upon sighting the anti-graft operatives at about 10am, became furious and ensured that the house was not marked with red inscription “EFCC: Keep off”.

While the two sides were exchanging words, over 20 uniformed and plain-clothed soldiers arrived at the scene, resisting the attempt to mark the house.

“They came in an unmarked white Hilux and black jeep, then others came in a small car and more again in a bus,” a source explained.

When Daily Trust visited the area, it was observed that the soldiers were on red alert as they attempted to chase our correspondents who went on a fact-finding mission on the seized property.

Similarly, when our correspondents visited the property located at No 52, Main Street, also in Sun City Estate, it was observed that the property was marked by the commission, but hours later, the EFCC red inscription was covered off from the walls and the gate.

Daily Trust recalled that the assets traced to the proxies and associates of the Brigadier General, according to the court papers, include: House on Plot 7, God’s Own Estate, Road 1, Wamna District, Abuja; a fencer plot at No 1 Jubril Aminu Crescent, Katampe Extension, Abuja and plot at Kubwa Express, Directly opposite Abuja Model City Gate, Abuja;

Others are: A house on Block SD 22 House 2, Road 5, Kabusa Garden Estate, Abuja; No 15, 21 Crescent, 2nd Avenue, Gwarinpa Estate, Abuja; No 3 Liverpool Close, Sun City Estate, Abuja; No 52 Main Street, Sun City Estate, Abuja; and No 25 Osaka Street, Sun City Estate, Abuja.

The EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, in a telephone interview, said he was not aware of the squabble.

When contacted last night, the Office of the NSA directed our correspondent to the Brigadier General’s lawyer, Barr. Omokayode Adebayo Dada, who maintained that the EFCC, according to the law of the land, has no power to investigate a serving military officer.

The lawyer argued that the military officer was right to have prevented himself from harassment of the operatives, stressing that if there was any petition against him, the EFCC should formally write to the authorities of Nigerian Army who will then look at the case.

“Anything that has to do with a serving military officer, you dare not go by EFCC and say you have powers. Everything EFCC did was premised on the foundation of illegality. The man is a graduate and learned person, he knows the law that governs him.

“If he had not spoken all these while and he now woke up from slumber, then he has the right to repel them. He didn’t repel them illegally. They constituted illegality in his premises and he took steps to defend himself,” he said.

Lol! Pretend as if you didn't see where I said the '63 constitution could be fine tuned to meet today's realities. Of course as the paid gov't hag you're you won't see it, you'll rather delve into ethnic dog whistling. Even the Ijaws, Itshekiris and other minorities your talking about are all calling for restructuring, we now have six regions each of which can stand on their own, how the Igbos who are chiefly in the south east will be lording over the minorities who are in the South South defies logic and only concretise the notion that the foolishness in your reasoning is inate, cancerous and contagious even if you're poked with a needle you will never get the point, you have sold your dignity in exchange for tradermonie, in all honesty I would love to exam the brains of the people that brought you to this world, who knows science may have answers to the roof breaking idiocy jammed into the brains of an individual.
The joke is on you.

Geostationary orbit (GEO) - in this orbit satellites stays constantly above one particular place over earth. Generally used by communication & earth observation satellites

Low Earth orbit (LEO) - satellites orbits orbiting between 160-1000 km altitude falls under LEO orbit. In LEO orbit max time during which the satellite is above the local horizon for an observer on the Earth is upto 20 min. Generally used by remote sensing satellites

Medium Earth orbit (MEO) - orbits anywhere between LEO and GEO. Generally used by navigation satellites

Polar orbit - Satellites in polar orbits usually travel past earth from north to south passing roughly over the poles. In polar orbit a satellite in 24 hr can map entire earth. Generally used by reconnaissance satellites

Polar sun-synchronous orbit - it is a type of polar orbit. Satellites in this orbit travelling over the polar regions are synchronous with the Sun. This means the satellite always visits the same spot at the same local time. Generally used by imaging satellites

We have more brains than the people in Power, I just can't solve these equation, 'aren't we suppose to have the best in these position'? Nigeria is blessed with brains, I can't help but blame Nepotism, corruption and politics.

Owerri is trending on Twitter, the feeds from there breaks my heart, how did we get it so wrong in this country? The years of corruption, lack of adequate training, planning for the security of the populace has seen insecurity in alarming levels, taking over the country. One clip caught my attention tho, the policemen came, I saw policeman dismount from Hilux and jeeps, walking casually without cover. We should by now be applying tactics from the NE here, I have seen the tactics of these UGM and I tell you, they aren't hard to counter. At least in that state by now they should have procured nothing less than 4 APC for the police force, two drones and a tactical team of at least 50 CTU well trained men, they would Counter these attacks easily. I can't say much here from Google maps alone, we can counter, block and eliminate threats.

True about the picture per second... but I think its not feasible continuously due to the amount of data to be stored and processed... too much information that might not be needed as it passes its orbit

Odunayaw:
Give me an example please
