We Have Vigilante Groups In This Country, Why Not Equipped Them With Money, Weapons And Charms To Battle Boko Haram And Their Fulani Herdsmen Brotherhood Instead Of Hiring USA security Guards

Racoon:


So from the "BH have been technically defeated" to "terribly downgraded", BH lacking the capacity to do major damage" the APC is about to engage the US Nat.Guards to defeat same monster they have defeated long ago including a $1B counter-insurgency fund?

Jonathan did it then seeking assistance of SA experts, the APC condemned it but today APC is reversing itself.APC hired Obama consultant for propaganda in 2015 but when PDP did same in 2018 APC is condemning it.APC hypocrisy is really nauseating.

It’s a big disgrace for Nigeria. It is now Cameroon and Chad fighting the insurgency more than Nigeria. We will build the capacity and Nigeria should be able to secure its territorial integrity," Buhari told Reuters.

Haters & wailers which way forward ?. Clueless Gej hired mercenaries ( merchants of death ). To fight Bokoharam with their boots on ground. While PMB is using USA guard's for training of Nigerian securities .which is obtainable around the world. Mr clueless GEJ awarded contracts for arms importations to fight insurgency, it was shamelessly stolen by PDP. Its disheartening that Nigerians are yet to sue PDP for all these atrocities committed by them

APC gradually and grudgingly adopting measures they criticised 4 years ago.

The Federal Government has reportedly resolved to engage the California National Guards in the United States in a bid to combat insecurity.

The Adjutant General of the California National Guard Maj Gen David Baldwin led Army delegates to pay a courtesy visit to the Chief of Army Staff Lt Gen TY Buratai to spur the relationship between the two military institutions to greater level.

The Federal Government, as part of efforts to curb the wave of insecurity in the country, has resolved to engage the California National Guards in the United States.

Minister of Interior, Abdulrahman Dambazau, disclosed this Tuesday in Abuja when an American military led by Gen David Baldwin, paid him a courtesy visit.

Dambazau revealed that the National Guard would also train the Agro Rangers Squad of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps NSCDC, adding that the National Guard will also train other agencies under the ministry in disaster management.

“We want to seize this opportunity to express our gratitude on behalf of all the services under the ministry, for meeting with some of them and even offering to assist with some logistics to enhance their operations.

“Part of what we want you to do particularly to the Civil Defence you met today is to create what we call Agro Rangers because of the incessant clashes we have between the farmers and herdsmen and the constant kidnapping we have in the country.

We intend to provide adequate security that will help those that invested in agriculture to continue with their activities. We will want you to assist other agencies like the Fire services, Immigration and Prison in terms of training and logistics.

“We, at the ministry, focus on policies that will enhance the internal security of the country and we want to seek your collaboration at that level you see how we can manage our efforts towards security sector reforms.

“It is very important we reform our security sector to meet up with challenges of modern times. As you know, we have challenges of insurgency and terrorism which is a global issue. We should be able to collaborate with you on these issues.
“Beyond that, I am sure that there are other things we can do together.

National Guard is very important in the USA especially as it focuses on disaster management. We hope to leverage on the experiences you used in managing hurricane in the USA to manage disaster like the flooding we experienced this year in Nigeria,” he appealed.

Earlier, the leader of the delegation, Baldwin, said: “We are very proud of the progressives you have made in the service of humanity. There has been a strong relationship between the ministry and the US National Guard.
“We are here to explore other areas of partnership that will be of mutual benefit and to the people of Nigeria. We are interesting in the training of personnel especially those involved in the fight against insurgency and disaster management.

“We are here to dialogue and explore opportunities we can work together particularly in the areas of ICT and disaster response. We look forward to working with you,” he said.
