Hmm? I didn't really get that part of you are not a sympathiser. So why all those videos?

Information. People have a right to know everything, don't like how AU is sanitizing info like there are no casualties and that everything is going perfect. Families; Public; need to know what their people are facing and going through. It is okay if you don't understand.

That's a CGI of the ARA MRAP from Nigeria's Proforce.


Going by the specifications of the ARA MRAP, it is clearly a capable vehicle, it's Stats are quite impressive. With this incoming launch, Nigerians in particular would soon have quite a lot to celebrate.


Beautiful vehicle! The South-Africans should watch their backs .... LOL!

I think UN is a useless loosening organization.Those country dominate Security Coucil don't have much interest helping one side fighting the other side,because there seems to be no big difference to them or UN no matter who wins.
