To meet up with the renewed strategy of clearing the remnants of Boko Haram terrorists,the Nigerian Army today inducted a combat motorbike battalion at the Headquarters of 25 Task Force Brigade, Damboa, Borno State. The Nigerian Army also launched the second set of 100 wanted suspected Boko Haram terrorists at the occasion.

The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Tukur Yusufu Buratai while inducting the unit stated that the essence of the battalion is to open and secure motorways from various towns to and fro Maiduguri and other parts of Yobe State.

Prior to the induction and launching ceremony, the Chief of Army Staff took time off to see and address troops located at Delwa and Bulabulin before arriving Damboa. On arrival, he inspected a Quarter guard at the Brigade’s headquarters. Thereafter, he was briefed by the Brigade Commander, Brigadier General Lawrence Adeleke Araba and then showed him some weapons, vehicles and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) making machines and equipment the formation recovered when they cleared Boko Haram terrorists camps at Talala and Ajingin recently.

Earlier, the Commander, 7 Division Garrison, Colonel Solomon Babatunde Kumapayi also showed the COAS vehicles, weapons and Improvised Explosives Making Devices (IEDs) his formation recovered from the terrorists at Kotokuma on Friday.

Inducting the combat motorbike unit, the Chief of Army Staff stated that the battalion will serve as a force multiplier in the clearance operations of remnants of Boko Haram terrorists. He stated further that with the induction of the unit,troops presence will be available along the roads thus keeping the roads open and safe.

Sense uwa Mmebi..

Looks like a bad idea to me. Bikes a cheaper than other vehicles making it easier for the terrorists to buy. Even if Boko don't buy the same type of bikes as these comandoes, civilians won't be able to difrentiate between terrorists and commandos in all that motorbike roar and biker leaning forward as they ride. Secondly, motorbikes are noisy thus mitigating against the only context in which one could forsee thire use,which is in stealth missions. Stealth missions require a hand full of soldiers mind you. This brings us to the question what would be the use of hundreds of soldiers on motorbikes blearing down the road or over some batlefild like glorifed Calvary men towards terorits? They will be decimated, it seems.
