Kano - Boko Haram fighters have surrounded the northeast Nigerian city of Maiduguri and are preparing an imminent takeover, an influential regional group claimed on Thursday, calling for military reinforcements.

"They have completely surrounded the city of Maiduguri," the Borno Elders Forum, which is made up of retired senior civilian and military officials as well as community leaders, said in a statement.

Boko is dying and running out of ammunition, so much that even civilians are now killing them in large numbers, Nigerian army and air force broke the backbone of Boko Haram in Damboa and Bama, they will never recover !

"The attack came days after the military said the chief of army staff has relocated to Maiduguri. Nigerian security forces, and members of a local vigilante killed at least 207 Boko Haram militants who launched a daring attack on a military barracks and other neighbourhoods of Maiduguri, Borno State, the vigilante group, known as the civilian-JTF, said Friday. Members of the civilian-JTF said they counted at least 207 corpses of suspected Boko Haram members killed during clashes with government troops early Friday. One leader of the vigilante, Mallam Abdullahi, told PREMIUM TIMES his members counted more than 200 bodies of suspected insurgents in one area where the fighting took place, and said there would be more bodies in the bush. “We have counted 207 dead members of Boko Haram in our area, Jiddari-Polo, alone. Many others are being killed in the bush because the fighter-jet is still shelling them, and some of our members have accompanied the soldiers in pursuing them,” Mr. Abdullahi said"

Togo won't even try Nigeria, the anti-aircraft guns 40mm on many of our ships have ceiling of 4km and Centenary AK 176 gun has ceiling range up to 11km with perfect radar guidance, our Aspide SAM is a BVR missile.

Yes it does

When you list specifications and capabilities - you list them

It does not have those capabilities hence it is not a true CIWS system

Even the Chinese say it's defences are so weak it is not capable of fleet operations

Nope, the website is discussing the warship details NOT the CIWS details, it does not give details about it's torpedoes as well, it's not the subject matter. All it needs to do is mention CIWS exists, two of it, better than Valour frigate that has only one !

Yes not for sea combat fleet because it carries no anti-ship missile for offense, but has perfect defense for itself. It cannot k.ill beyond 16km for lack of anti-ship missiles, thats what the Chinese say.

15km range radar guided 76mm gun will sink an Frigate in few minutes !

"They have completely surrounded the city of Maiduguri," the Borno Elders Forum, which is made up of retired senior civilian and military officials as well as community leaders, said in a statement.
Source: News24


Fake news, propaganda, read the truth and hurt yourself cheesy cheesy

"
The Defence Headquarters, Thursday denied the reports that Boko Haram militants had surrounded Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, in readineass for a takeover of the city.

The AFP had reported that Boko Haram fighters had surrounded Maiduguri and were preparing an imminent takeover.

It quoted the Borno Elders Forum as its source.


The warning from the Forum, made up of retired senior civilian and military officials, came after the United States warned of an attack on the city and analysts claimed the government risked losing control of the region.

But in a tweet on its handle, the military said its troops were now pursuing the fleeing terrorists from some towns and villages where they had been oppressing the people in the Northeastern states.

It stated that Mubi, Michika, Bazza, Gulak, Gwoza, Bama, Gamboru Ngala and other towns and villages in the region were being stabilised through air and land attacks against fleeing and dying terrorists.

“The efforts are yielding impressive results in the overall move to rid the areas of terrorist activities”.


It, however, frowned at the determination by a section of the media to cause panic and chaos in the region by deliberately ignoring visibly formidable security measures and reporting negativity.

He said, “Alarmist reports on foreign and online media on Maiduguri is clearly intended to cause panic in the city and the nation”.

BAKU, September 12. /ITAR-TASS/. Russia concluded last month an agreement with Nigeria on the deliveries of a considerable consignment of Russian Mil Mi-series military helicopters, which are called Hip in line with NATO classification, a senior official with the state-owned high-tech corporation Rostec said on Friday.
“In August, not that much long ago, a contract was signed with Nigeria on the deliveries of [Russian] helicopters,” Sergei Goreslavsky, a deputy director general of Rostec, said at the ADEX-2014 international defense exhibition in Azerbaijan.
“We are talking here about a significant number of Mi-171Sh helicopters and several Mi-35M helicopters,” Goreslavsky added.
He added that Mi-171Sh helicopters and other Mi modifications are very popular in other African states.
“Mozambique expressed its interest and we plan to work in this direction at the upcoming exhibition in South Africa,” Goreslavsky added.
