all4naija: They didn't succeed freeing any prisoner in the first place. That was a 202 Battalion Barracks, in Bama and they never succeeded. 21 of the terrorists were confirmed dead,6 police killed and 14 inmates losing their lives in the crossfire. 2 soldiers,3 children and a women also lost their lives. If this insurgents were to attack SA barracks I think they would have succeeded after seeing what happened in CAR of what happened at BAMA Barracks HERE

It is very laughable how you come here to prove your point without evidence. Again, Google is your friend and will do you good using it to carry out your research.

all4naija: The evidence that makes it impossible is not strong enough to over-shadow national pride. The government can bribe the families of those not counted among the dead SA soldiers to shut their mouths up for the sake of shaming the nation military. We know South Africans are very sentimentally patriotic in nature. That I suspect is the right evidence to this shady incidence involving your soldiers in CAR.

all4naija: Lol... It is clear you refused to get educated. Check for history of the most brutal war fought in Africa and that has claimed more lives than any. People will keep laughing at your comments here if you accept to be ignorant, which is worse than being ignorant. Try to make us of Google for information once,dude.

Mbuisi:

The most brutal does not make it a high intensity war. Do you want to brand Rwandan massacre a high intensity battle as well. A high intensity battle is the one that include everything in one. Two to three countries in war using Navy, Airforce and Army all in one. Nigeria has never been involved in any battle of that calibre and has never been tested thereof. I would lie Kenya as well has never been tested in that regard, only Egypt, SA, Ethiopia have been tested so far. SA has fought Germany and Britain, so did you know about that? SA has fought against Germany to take over Namibia and won it.

So please my friend, do not call civil wars where cannibals( cruel people who eats human flesh ) are slaying people using machete and committing mass killing a high intensity military battle.

Hahaha... SA fought Germans with Zulu sticks, spears, clubs and stones. RTFLMAO! Can you point to when those happened? In the year your great grandfathers were not born. Hehehe... Keep fighting with your spears, clubs and stones as we have seen in Marakina incidence that lead to the death of 33 people. What a barbaric way to go.

Now, your military are using the same sticks, clubs and stone tactics to fight in CAR and we have seen what the consequences become of them.

Mbuisi:

No wonder why many Nigerians prefer rather to be educated abroad than in Nigeria. The result of being educated in Nigeria can clearly be seen in you.

Here is the history of Namibia under the German colony before being toppled by SA.

What? SA fought germany during WW1. Not with spears but rifels even arcraft.

all4naija: Keep fooling yourself and continue to speculate. How do you know that I am educated in Nigeria? Your ignorance is revealing in this your particular comment.


If we have to scrutinized this your statement it is clear it holds no water to what we are talking about when it comes to world war you are alluding to. Nigerians also fought in the two WWWs along side the commonwealths as your soldiers you are trying to prove their capacity to battle with your link. It is a case of lack of relevancy that you are now taking your military strength with poor records in the past(highly the white Apartheid regime) using the blacks as war fighters to look as though are. Indeed, it explains the reason why your nation couldn't fight for independent when other poorer and smaller nations were be given theirs in the 60s. Don't let me expose your country's military weakness as in relation to other things in your society. We haven't seen where your military has been tested before. Whether it is in the peace keeping process(where your soldiers just made fools of themselves) or in the conventional wars, internal or external. Nigerian army has engaged in both and with less on the external conventional fight that would have involved the country and Cameroon. It is clear you are blabbing and don't really know what you are talking about.

Go and educate yourself on African militarization and it records, you would find out that SA lacked good records in whatsoever way to be compared to Nigeria. It is sad you refused to be wise and quietly take the shrew means of carrying out your research before coming here to post irrelevant comments. I hope you will accept this on a good fate and take to your researches.

Mbuisi:

Then it is clear that they haven't taught you the history of SA at school. SA was a much feared nation in the 60s whereby there was no even African nation that would dare challenge it on the battlefield. They were very skilled in chemical and biological warfare and thus even Nigeria then was bottled to ever challenge SA in battle. The only country that has ever colonise another country and wanted to extend their imperial power to the whole region and that mission was stopped by Russia and Cuba. It is no secret that SA has a rich war history than any country in Africa. For as far as my country is concerned, it doesn't have much traceable records, but it is a good army though. Surely we have what it takes to defeat Nigeria. Nigeria is not a strong army, it should rather compete with the likes of us, Angola, Uganda and Libya. I am studying 4th level international relations and by the grace of the lord, there is no where I had ever come across Nigeria being involved in a high intensity conflict. Like I said it only the likes of Egypt, SA and Ethiopia.

all4naija: Hahaha... Most brutal does make sense it is highly deadly. Using Rwanda ethnic genocide as a case point nullifies your argument. It simply means you have not read anything about the Nigeria civil war. If not, you wouldn't be using conjecture to support your irrational point here to make the gravity of the war look as not well fought. I am waiting for you to point how WWII being highly brutal was not a high INTENSITY war. All I know is a brutal war is a very deadly war, there is no argument about that. Unless you are just trying to troll and play on words.

andrewza:

What? SA fought germany during WW1. Not with spears but rifels even arcraft.

all4naija: Who were the South Africans in the 60s you were talking about? Is it not SA that had independence in 1991? Please, there is no argument in this your comment.

Now state clearly with facts. Where did SA fought the deadly wars? The Ethiopian war? Why not Nigeria?

Mbuisi:

Civil war on its own does not arrive at the level of high intensity battle. We as international relations students that's not how we go about measuring the intensity of the conflict. Don't worry Ill teach you of many things that you didn't know before.

Mbuisi:

There you go again, let me teach you. SA got its independence from Britain and became the RSA in May 1961 not in 1991 as you claim. Prior to it becoming the republic it was a Union of South Africa under the queen of England and the Dutch law. Do not confuse independence with freedom.

Mbuisi:

In other words, SA was treated as a European country outside Europe. That is the reason why SA has so many whites accounting to 10% of the entire population of SA. Whites in SA includes, Afrkaners, Jews, Greeks, Portuguese and Germans.

all4naija: The intensity of war is measured by many factors. One of the high factors is the brutality, another is the number of lives claimed by it. Stop acting as somebody who is uneducated by parading yourself to be expert in the area. It is not required of you. That I can not see in your argument yet.

all4naija: This does not explain your country independence. It is clear you have no single idea of your country history. Yet, you are bent on arguing about Nigerian engaged wars and military capacity. Jeez! You goofed ,dude!

all4naija: Hahaha... That was independence for white South Africans. It is clear you don't know anything about your own country history. The freedom came as at 1991 and your country was recognized as independent nation by 1994 when Apartheid end. How can you refer to your country independence when Apartheid began? You must be terribly poor in your acclaimed flied.

Go and educate yourself first before coming here to write sh*t. Jeez! You really fooled yourself with this very comment that is highly questionable.

Mbuisi:

The brutality of the battle has nothing to do with its intensity. The intensity (magnitude)or (Size) is the level at which the war is fought, for eg, Government(USA) vs Government(Britain), Rebels vs Government within one country or tribe vs tribe. The war of high intensity affects many countries even though they are not physically involved.

Mbuisi: Thanks God I was never educated in Nigeria or else I would have been programmed to write all this garbage without any brain. Kenya is a country for me and its education system is very reputable.

all4naija: Hahaha... That was independence for white South Africans. It is clear you don't know anything about your own country history.

Mbuisi:

Independence means freedom of the country from colonialism by another country. So, according to you South Africa only became independent in 1991 after apartheid, meaning SA was colonised by Afrikaners who were also recognised as South Africans. This is crazy, is the any possibility that Zulus or Xhosas can colonise South Africa if they are citizens of SA.

For your information, SA under apartheid was independent from Britain, hence it was called Republic of South Africa. Another example will be that of Namibia which became independent in 1990 from South Africa which colonised it then.

all4naija: That is not an excuse. There a many Nigerians educated in that country who are far better and intelligent than you can ever be. Wole Soyinka, Chinua Achebe are/were products of Nigerian education system.

Are you claiming to be a Nigerian? Are you serious? It is clear the reason why you don't have good information about SA and its history. Poor education (as in orientation not as in academic)is your very problem here,dude. It is very palpable you refused to get educated with your ignorant approach. Google is your friend, dude.

all4naija: It is clear you can read to comprehend. You are not a South African and you have no idea of that country history. I will still refer you to do your research before trying to be act smart with silly logic.

all4naija: Are you still talking 'bout those soldiers who were decimated by child rebels in CAR? I can not seem to see your argument from this your WWI angle.

all4naija: WWII? Where were the Germans fought? State categorically the weapons used and how your country got involved. That is a small topic for you to write your thesis on . What about the Ethiopian war?

all4naija: Hahaha... That was independence for white South Africans. It is clear you don't know anything about your own country history.
