Oasis007: My best guess. I have been thinking in this direction. This is not just an ordinary attack. As Nigeria military start this new offensive against this blood killers, they needed to quip them to match some of our fire power. France and all this french countries need to tell us something we really don't know. Is like they withdraw soldiers from the Barack. That gun trucks looks new to me and is like it was arranged somewhere for them to come and carry. 3 Likes |

Toju200: Yesterday was supposed to be a free road movement on Monguno-Maiduguri road. Tho it was closed down by the Military due to some ongoing operation. The truth is that the Military needs to close down Maiduguri-Monguno road and Maiduguri-Damasak road for a month if they are going to get rid of these bastards. Normally when the Lake Chad axis becomes too hot for ISWAP they usually cross the Monguno-Maiduguri road towards Borno central. Some sources have been seeing them crossing at the wee hours of the night, i think the military should put up on drone surveillance at night on Maiduguri-Monguno and Maiduguri-Damasak roads. ![]() God bless our Gallant men 8 Likes |

Juchii: This is where intelligence should come in. Those vehicles are definitely destined for the Nigerian border. Surveillance drones or the ISR platforms would be very well needed at this point. Rapidly destroying their bounty will do a lot damage to their Morales. I can imagine it took scarce resources in terms of technicals and strategic planning to carry out such successful attacks. Nigeria must realise it's alone in this war. |

Oasis007: Honestly part of me don’t want to believe what you’re saying. But the scene doesn’t had up, four killed, 7 military graded vehicles of deferent types and several cache of ammunition’s captured. The truth of the matter is that most of our Franco-neighboring countries can’t be trusted, exception of Cameroon. |

persius555: You’re 100% right mate. Gathering intelligence outside the shores of your borders is not that easy, very dangerous. Like I said earlier this morning we need a strong and formidable joint regional force across all affected countries. |

Mr Yusuf Gadgi, the Chairman of the House of Representatives’ Committee on Navy, on Wednesday challenged the Nigeria Navy (NN) to start building its own warships. He said that the NN had the required competence and expertise to build its own warships without any intervention. Gadgi said this on Wednesday after a Stakeholders’ Meeting and at the end of a three-day oversight visit to the various naval commands in Lagos. He said that during the course of the committee members tour, they noticed that boats and ships were produced at the Naval Dockyard, Victoria Island. “During the course of our visit, we noticed that the Nigeria Navy acquired some boats from South Africa. If South Africa can produce boats, we have our own naval dockyard to do so. “What stops the government from investing in the naval dockyard to an extent, since it has produced some of the boats and ships we want, why can’t we increase its capacity? “We as the giant of Africa will be able to produce boats and ships for the babies of other West African countries,” he said. He also said that one of the issues the committee would work on would be government’s centralised opinion on the navy. “We have a competent navy that will be able to look at the kind of ships that they want and look at the type of vessels they want. “We should be able to empower and allow them to have free-hands to acquire those things. “Not other agencies buying vessels and ships that cannot even stand the test of time, ” he said. Gadgi assured the command that the committee would look into the challenges facing the navy, especially, in the areas of finance and recruitment of personnel. “As a committee, with the challenges we have seen, we are willing to make decisions that will further promote operations of the navy considering the commitment shown by officers and the Western Naval Command,” he said. He said that a larger stakeholders’meeting would hold in Abuja after all the members of the committee would have submitted their reports. “We know that after going to the central and eastern commands, including the units that operate in all those areas, the largest stakeholders’ meeting will still hold in Abuja. “There, we will be able to digest the challenges and find lasting solutions to all the challenges being faced by the maritime-related sectors, ” he said. He said that the committee had identified intimidating challenges which if they were not looked into, they might dent the prestige of the Nigeria Navy. He assured them that the challenges would be solved. He, however, commended the Nigeria Navy and the Western Naval Command for their tremendous works on the maritime front. Rear Adm. Oladele Daji, the Flag Officer Commanding (FOC) Western Naval Command, also commended the committee for visiting the command and identifying with some of the issues confronting the navy in general. “The visit of the committee has been very enlightening in terms of advice and areas of intervention that will ensure that the operations of the Western Naval Command are enhanced. “I want, on behalf of the officers, ratings and civilian staff members, of not only the Western Naval Command but all other commands in Lagos, to sincerely thank you for your energy and drive, the commitment and sincerity of purpose with which your committee performed its oversight function. “We have been receiving delegations before now but this has been the most engaging and most productive, ” he said. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the committee members’ visited the Navy Ordnance Depot, Special Boat Service and Joint Maritime Security Centre. They also went to the Underwater Warfare School, Nigeria Reference Hospital, the newly commissioned apartments for personnel, the Stadium, the Nigeria Navy Secondary School and the Naval Air Base within the Ojo barracks. They were also at NNS ships in BEECROFT, Naval Base BEECROFT, Naval Training Command, the Naval Dockyard Limited, Naval Doctrine and Assessment Centre, Forward Operating bases in Igbokoda and Badagry respectively. 2 Likes |

Xbee007: Paying attention to detail is an act of intelligence and credibility. Not to do so leaves you open to allegations of disinformation and not particularly wise. I quote you verbatim, "He kept mentioning that the delivery starts on 2024 even after he has been told it starts in 2021" Taking my statement in isolation "that will not be delivered until 2024" You really can not get any plain spoken than this, it's not big word, simple English. Are these two statements the same in your understanding of English language❓ The contract has made it clear that delivery completion will be in 2024 albeit it projected. I have said this several times over the past month. Just like l said the contract sum total is $593 million and I substantiated it with a US government substantiated gazetted documents by a state department. I even posted the link which has now gone missing with several of my posts. But to pre-empt the usual spurious claims that I am just saying that now. Screen shot of previous posts by me alluding to the same thing.

blacKDalia: The general actually gave two differing pieces of information first there were 8-10 gun trucks and then 15 gun trucks. Thats the detail. They were in close proximity to Boko with small trees and shrubs typical Sahel savanna terrain. With a clear identifiable target with open spaces that marks the demarcation between friendly forces and foes. Any aircraft can do the job with precision ordinances and or missiles as well as a strafing run. With the situation that General Adeniyi described l would have none. Troops are too close to the enemy and a strafing run will kill friend and foe. I gave a very recent example with the French Mirage sent to help the IS forces caught up in a ambush fire fight in Niger. In which 4 US soldiers died. French pilots did not engage could not distinguish between friend and foe. My preference would be too buckle down wait till night fall. Switch of all our vehicles off have a zero heat signature and allow the Wing Loong II UAV that gives us 30+ hours silent endurance to identify targets with its 12 ATGM's as compared to the 5+ hours fly time over head endurance of the noisy A29. At nightfall with temperatures drop the FLIR from the Wing Loong will see and identity the Boko gun trucks like Christmas tree lights very clearly. Ground troops to coordinate and engage Boko with small arms fire ONLY and enduce Boko to use thier gun trucks which will further increase thier heat signature and easy identification. As you know one A29 will procure 30 Wing Loong II UAV's. But just 2 will do the job comprehensively. Then our guys can go in and mop up and the UAV over head will be able to pin point individual Boko elements for our guys to neutralise. 6 Likes |

Hello Guys, I want to make an appeal. This is "Striker Arab". He is a Nigerian soldier operating in the North East against the Terrorists ravaging our country. I usually go to his page to see battle field images. I've never met him before and he did not ask me to do this. I went to his page today to see images as usual and I came across this heart wrenching video. His mother is sick and needs a kidney transplant. I cried when I saw the video. Please we can use this platform to support him, let us donate, no matter how small. Even if it is common 2k or 5k. These soldiers are also ordinary people like us. Kindly click on the instagram link to watch the video and support. Please. Thank you all! https://www.instagram.com/p/B_zkCD-nVSs/?igshid=zc59b3cl807q 1 Like

dragon2: I will like you to consider even postulate on the comparison of costs between USA procured precision munitions and Chinese procured munitions of the same ilk. A MQ-9 Reaper costs $30 million it's ATGM's according to some one here $115k which l find to be within the general price range. Those will be the same or very similar to the ones used for the A29, that is the Hellfiremissile system used on multiple platforms by the US and it's allied partners. The Chinese Wing Loong II costs $1 million and it's ATGM's I dont think more than $20k, l really dont know, but we can agree they will be way cheaper than the USA ones. Which is more long term sustainable and with far less running costs❓ The UAV does not need speed it can hover over head silently at 15,000 feet for 30 hours with all its ISTAR capabilities as well as its 12 ATGM's. |
