Definitely its an insider's job cos the mode of operation is usually kept secret,and highly confidential.

Rubbish!!

This is what happens when you treat terrorists and their sponsors with Kid-gloves the way the the PDP-led Federal government headed by Goodluck Agbaya Jonathan has been doing....

Anyway, RIP to the Dead Soldiers, it's a shame you were killed because of the ineptitude of a few greedy power-hungry eediots..




38th sha, its a pity I'm not on page 1, God knows why so I still give him all the glory!!!

Stop talking rubish friend. American soldiers are ambushed & killed severally in both afganistan & iran. Maybe u don't understand d word, "ambush". D best u can do in an ambush situation is to resist & it takes only strong military formation & strategy 2 resist an ambush jus d way our gallant soldiers did. D only casualties recorded according 2 d report was as a result of I.E.D dat went off. Let's stop all these trash we always say about our country. No matter how bad it becomes, it remains our country. Happy sunday.

Pedro JP: A whole national Army couldn't show a reprisal counter attack. Let me check again if it is the police and not the army that was attacked. If na to slap and punish civilians(students) dem go de do like say dem different from the civilians.

If they were not repulsed by d escorts, then d whole contingent wld av died.

I think our citizens have a role 2 play. We shld learn 2 report suspicious pple/activities.

Official casualty figure- 2 dead, 4 wounded. Let's hope that there's no unofficial casualty figure.

excondido: this insurgence is gradualy moving southward. everyone should be more vigilant .

Y do u think they arent thr already.
They're probably sleeper cells everywhr, only waiting 2 b activated.
Re: Nigerian Soldiers Ambushed At Okene, Kogi State by naptu2: 1:22pm On Jan 20, 2013
1) They were being escorted to Kaduna to board a plane to Mali.

2) Most of the soldiers would most likely not have been armed (apart from the escorts).

3) I suspect that the attackers had prior knowledge.

4) It's impossible to guard against that. The best you can do is to have armoured vehicles that will reduce the impact. This is one of the reasons I support the intervention in Mali. It's impossible to succeed if you adopt a defensive posture. You have to take the fight to the militants.
