eagleu: If true as reported, why we're the soldiers not backed up by these so called alpha jets from day 1?

meforyou1: Sahara reporter is a junk news website. They can say whatever the feel like saying.
Our military is a dignified and disciplined force, so they don't respond to such alarmist news item.
I can only believe sowore when he physically locates himself in maiduguri or damaturu. Our boys are destroying the boko terrorists, don't be swayed by sowore's sensationalism

atlwireles: This constant lie by some groups in this country is worse than boko haram. All your attempts to belittle the Nigerian army is out right dumb. 99.9% of the ones posting this crap are the very people in the cross hair of boko haram. Keep insulting the army, you might have to carry your own gun and take on boko haram, as they are your brothers and friends. Because sooner or later other Nigerians will walk off the battle field for you people.

Vikky014: Anoda junk news from boko haram member (ibnsultan),u wil soon b apprehended jst watch ur back!all ur comments & thread are enof evidence

Firefire:

Those people can tell lies upon lies just to discredit NA.

Enemies of Nigeria state shall fail.

IdiAmin1: Bros, let's do math 101. If Naija army bomb boko haram hideouts or strongholds, how many civilian casualties do you think will be recorded? Subtract it from the civilian casualties already recorded since boko haram menace started in 2009 and tell me the difference. Waiting for your answer, Mr. Reuben Abatt...

Emeca: Due to media censorship, we may neva know just how our 'illustrious' army is faring against these militants.

Guerilla warfare is one of the most energy-sapping, morale-sagging, money-draining system of warfare in the history of mankind. E.g; America v Taliban/AlQaeda, Israel v Hamas/Hezbollah, Ethiopia/Kenya v AlShabab, Iraq/Syria v Islamic State and now Nigeria v Boko Haram.

pro01:

This instance is not an example of guerilla warfare in any way. An organised terror unit has taken over a whole town, and are fully and openly repelling federal troops attempting to retake the town. That is hardly a hide-n-seek arrangement. It is full-blown, frontal war. The excuses being made by the military about Boko Haram's so-called guerrilla tactics are increasingly untenable.

Qelvin: Colonel Agu(I suppose he is Igbo) should know better than risking his life for a worthless country,any Igbo in such situation is a fool...let the Hausa animals fight their own war...the man who brings junk to his house should be ready to play host to a infestation of ants.

ZACHIE:

Quick questions:

WHY HAS THE ARMY NOT ENTERED SAMBISA FOREST TILL DATE?
WHY WAIT TILL BH HOISTED ITS FLAG IN DAMBOA BEFORE RECLAIMING IT?
WHY THE MUTINY OF RETURNING SOLDIER ON THE INCREASE?

WHY DO I GET TO SEE LOTS OF PICTURES OF DEAD SOLDIERS ON FACEBOOK DISPLAYED BY THEIR LOVED ONES?

Firefire:


Please be patriotic for once.

I recommend you direct further query to NA Directorate of Information.

vedaxcool: Pls is Damboa still under bh control? A certain sincere fool was parotting the garbage that the Nigerian army deliberately withdrew from Damboa to teach its inhabitants a lesson.

The only way forward is impeachment, waiting till 2015 might be playing ostrich while goatluck ebola jonathan continues to use his incompetence to misrule this country, people should remember what happened in Mali, lack of weapons made soldiers mutinied and stage a coup, this country cannot continue over a self canibalizing govt. which sows corruption and incompetence.

Ibnsultan: all military cheifs are too dull.

vedaxcool:

Gej incompetence is infectious!

Osama10: Its a pity we are really loosing it, this boko haram thing should be prosecuted like a war.

Innocent lives of civilians and soldiers are being lost everyday.

Izunwa:
Quite interesting that this statement is comin from someone with your moniker. Including the second to comment guy below you I don't knw what to believe again. Nairaland is a strange land.

omenka: When you see a kid desperate for attention, you know right away.

@post: I keep wondering, what exactly is the role of the Nigerian Air Force in this battle Why can't we have a situation in which ground troops lure those vampires out of their hideouts and call in air support to finish the job?? What is really going on Is someone deliberately sabotaging the Nigerian Army??

This is so disheartening to say the least.
