Southie Enugu man ... more of your mirror-image below! ============= Every election since 1994 has had incidents of violent confrontations between supporters of rival political organisations. On Monday, January 13, 2014, State President Jacob Zuma had to call for supporters of all parties to desist from violence, while the Deputy President of the African National Congress reiterated the need for all parties to observe tolerance of political opponents and their right to campaign across the country. This comes in the wake of ANC supporters clashing with the police when they attempted to engage Julius Malema, leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), at Nkandla on the same day the ANC launched its election manifesto in Mbombela. Subsequently, the residents of the house Malema handed them have asked for protection, fearing for their lives. When South Africans are not engaged in violence against one another, they scapegoat people identified as “foreigners”. The twenty years since the first democratic elections which ae celebrated as the advent of democracy and freedom by many, are blighted by regular “xenophobic attacks” against people seen to be from elsewhere in Africa. During the worst waves in 2007 and 2008, thousands of non-citizens had to be accommodated in refugee camps. Myths about other Africans illegitimately and unfairly accessing resources and property that many South Africans think of as theirs – these range from jobs to land, and in a country where they are still seen as possessions, despite legislated equality, this includes women – are used by people when questioned about their motives. ============ http://www.enca.com/opinion/south-africa-history-violence 3 Likes 2 Shares |

lezz:indeed,but what i am worried about is their ability to mobilize and locate soft targets in the NE,i expected all of them to be currently running helter skelter into cameroon and niger,i didnt expect smatterings of half baked reprisals,its shows that some of them still possess confidence,perhaps due to our lackadiasical attitude in terms of media awarness and lack of a concerted media offensive{abeg make una help us beg DHQ to release videos and pictures of battles in overtly dramatic details,lets take a cue from the photomaniac SANDF}. It is time for the SSS to grab the elephant by the tusks,and relentlessly persecute these agents of destruction.The NA/NAF should be allowed to focus on mopping up operations,instead of chasing around renegade factions of the defeated jihadists;that should be the work of the DSS. |

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by EVarn(m): 10:30pm On Mar 28, 2015 |
MduZA:Where did you hear such preposterous rumours?,how can INEC officials use torches to count votes in the FCT of all places?! Throughout the whole of Nigeria,there is steady power supply,moreso for the machines and devices that are being used to accredit,document and compile the votes. Polling units that dont have power{due to topography or weather problems},make use of power generating engines. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by lezz(m): 10:37pm On Mar 28, 2015 |
EVarn:indeed. Time for the SSS and military intelligence to do clean up. I'm also thinking they are laying too much emphasis on the polling units and leaving the outskirts of villages for easy picks for BH. |

lezz:on point,polling units should be manned by a joint force of the police,MOPOL and civil defence corps,while the DSS should provide intelligence coverage to forestall any attacks on polling centers,the only military job should be the airforce providing aerial surveillance and rapid transport of defence forces.we are overstretching our troops by deploying over 40,000 soldiers just to secure a few states.Troops shouldnt be unnecessarily distracted from tightening the choke-hold on BH,we musnt allow bros 'kau to escape to qatar through sudan. On a grander note,i must commend the FG for ensuring safe,free and fair elections throughout the country{except for a few unfortunate glitches},Enemies of the federal republic will be put to shame. 1 Like |

If INEC officials were counting votes with torch lights,then what was the BBC crew that gave the report using to observe?,were they also using torches?,or did the BBC reporters manage to stuff generators and a few gallons of petrol into their backpacks? what a ridiculous report,even if you are being fed lies,dont you have at least a smidgin of common sense to decypher what is true and what is not? |

Msauza: ABUJA, Nigeria -- Boko Haram extremists killed 41 people, including a legislator, and scared hundreds of people from polling stations but millions voted across Nigeria Saturday in the most closely contested presidential race in the nation's history. All the Boko Haram attacks took place in northeastern Nigeria, where the military Friday announced it had cleared the Islamic extremists from all major centres, including the headquarters of their so-called Islamic caliphate. Nearly 60 million people have cards to vote, and for the first time there is a possibility that a challenger can defeat a sitting president in the high-stakes contest to govern Africa's richest nation. http://www.ctvnews.ca/world/boko-haram-kills-41-disrupting-elections-as-millions-vote-in-nigeria-1.2301714 . 1 Like 1 Share |

But any way, please explain how only 4000 men fought in the Border war?because what you are saying is that in 23 years no soldiers were ever rotated......at all!!!!! And we did deploy Fighters to CAR in 2013 We also deployed the Rooivalk to the DRC with great success. And why would we deploy artillery and tanks on peace keeping missions? We are fighting rebel forces equal to Boko Harm and f@cking them up. 2 Likes |
