US Report Reveals Nigerian Military Tipped Off Boko Haram About Chibokgirls Re by USAPRODUCTS(m): 10:26pm On Mar 07, 2015
Recent reports from US intelligence sources have revealed that Nigerian military commanders leaked plans to rescue the abducted Chibok girls to Boko Haram terrorists which ended up botching the operation.

On April 14, over 200 pupils were abducted from Government Girls Secondary School Chibok in Borno State, sparking an international outrage. In response to the global outcry, the US sent spy planes to Nigeria to help locate the girls and a plan was agreed with the military to mount a daring rescue operation. However, according to two US Army generals, details of the rescue mission was leaked to Boko Haram before it could be put into operation, enabling the terrorists to take preventative action.

As Exclusively reported by NIGERIAN WATCH, accusing the Nigerian Army of treason, the generals revealed that that the war against Boko Haram was purposefully sabotaged by the Nigerian government, as if it would not, defeating the terrorists would not have taken longer than a month.

US sources pulled out from helping Nigeria rescue the missing Chibok girls after Washington discovered that Boko Haram had been fed the details of a covert rescue mission that would involve using gas. Source said that as soon as the Americans arrived and flew surveillance flights over Nigeria, they located the girls and proposed gassing the areas in the Sambisa Forest and then sending in a raid mission to rescue the girls while their terrorist captors were paralysed asleep. However, shortly after Nigeria’s security chiefs were given this plan in high confidence, its details were leaked to Boko Haram who promptly acted to foil the plot.

On its next surveillance flight over the area, the US team saw the Boko Haram terrorists all wearing gas masks. US agents were very disappointed with this and immediately afterwards, Washington announced that it will no longer share information with Nigeria. This was one of the major reasons why the US gave up on a mission of working with the Jonathan government and eventually pulled out of the fight against Boko Haram.

According to military sources, it was this betrayal that led to Washington sanctioning Nigeria and preventing her from purchasing security equipment because the US is not convinced of the sincerity of the Jonathan government. Since the episode, the US has refused to sell Nigeria military hardware amid fears that it may end up in the hands of Boko Haram, although the official reason given was the human rights record of the Nigerian Army. Since it began its operations in 2009, Boko Haram has always managed to infiltrate the Nigerian security forces where it has as lot of supporters and sympathisers.

Terrorist cells are regularly tipped off about military missions and have subsequently been able to lie in ambush for Nigerian soldiers. Of late, however, Boko Haram has been on the back foot since the establishment of the regional Multi National Joint Task Force. Because the task force is made up of regional neighbours Cameroon, Chad and Niger Republic, Boko Haram has been unable to infiltrate it, ass their troops have not been compromised.

Oya TANoids, let's hear your version of the story.

Come to think of it, U couldn't defeat BH for 5 years then suddenly, U call for elections postponement and in 6 weeks U are winning the battle.

Who wrote this script self - typical Nollywood movie?!

Why is GEJ and Boko Haram not a nominee in AMVCA 2015?

What's positive in this mess of a military which can't keep intelligence?

What about all the lives of civilians lost in public places over 5 years while GEJ & his cohorts left Boko Haram to fester?

What about the psychological trauma the families and friends of the kidnapped chibok girls are going through?

The important thing is that the Army should return in victory...
...a soldier is expected to die in battle, what did he sign up for?
To drown in a swimming pool in my backyard?

If GEJ returns re-elected, be sure of one thing, Boko Haram will return, the current battle is just a campaign tool.

Guess, who is the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces? Common sense should tell you that he would have been well briefed on the matter.

my statement was that of a surprise, of course he knew ,I was only awed at the his intention nd non commitment to fight the insurgents. Later he'd tell us that his election does not worth the death of a Nigerian. I can't take the president by his words ...
