Hopefully the bandits won't shoot down those jets and embarass the military as usual.

Gunshots at EndSars memorial! 2 dead 8 gravely injured!

Shebi we done buy am, so dey should forget about the criminal element we want to use it on... what's their concern

complexBoss12:


What an irony, bandit/terrorist army seeking order from bandit/terrorist government to bomb (dash tucano jets) to their foot soldiers. Bc next news you will hear now is 5 newly acquired jets were captured by bandits.

#Soro soke

They're not jets

Get your facts right before spewing nonsense

So, the US government explicitly said that the aircraft should not be used against Fulani Terrorists aka Bandits!?

the agreement signed with the Government of the United States was that the A-29 Super Tucano fighter jets procured from the country would be deployed against terrorists and insurgents,
and not bandits

We have done DAT with Pakistan and Italy..

Ppogbae:
So why not purchase fighter jets from a country that does not use human rights concerns as a precondition? Why are Nigerians leaders so intellectually bereft?

Maybe YOU are the bereft one here. If you engage your brain you will find answers to your silly question

omowolewa:
Thought Chief Lia said they were deployed already

Lai Mohammed caught lying again

Then declare bandits as terrorist and allow the new planes be used on them

richmond500:
can u show us evidence that helicopter was sent to bomb the SE?

We saw it me man.

If you study the situation well you would realize that Nigeria is more chinese inclined.

Why couldn't they get the technology from china Because doesn't have it neither does other militaries.

Every nations of the world are reaching out to Yankee for this tucano.

So sorry bro till Nigeria starts developing it's own technology to solve it's issues it will continue to be at the mercy of foreign powers.

Makers of the tucano saw a global trend in terrorism and produced something to tackle it. That my friend is what you call power of science and technology

I feel sick and tired of people like you with no form of understanding when it comes to trade Craft in the intelligence world...

That clause would force the FG to redesignate the group to a terrorist group. Because the world powers know elements of the FG have hands in the issue.

Are herdsmen not designated the 3rd deadliest terrorist globally?

SmartPolician:


Please this doesn't have anything to do with Buhari. The US sells its military hardware to other countries under stringent terms and conditions because they know that the military can be so ruthless and wicked. The US is a country that cares about human rights.

Do you know the number of times Nigerian military has mistakenly released grenades from Air Force jets killing innocent Borno village people? They call it collateral damage and nobody faces justice for it. Those are the people the rules are meant to protect.

Please read and read again! It has everything to do with Buhari. Buhari labelled IPOB terrorists with immediate effect when he came back from one of his London journeys. So why can't he label bandits (actually terrorists) terrorists that they are so they can be dealt with?

what is the difference between the marauding herdsmen on a killing spree and their Boko Haram brethren?

Buhari is our president whether we like it or not, but don't come here acting as though you don't understand the issues on ground!

Trump the criminal should not have sold those fighter jets to the Nigerian government. It's a well known fact that the Nigerian government violates the human rights of Nigerians with impunity.

What are the house of representatives waiting for, bandits are terrorists.

Ipob terrorist.

ChiefSosa:
Buhari knows what to do, he just doesn't want to do it.

Imagine this nonsense!

The terrorists in the northeast have they finish with them with the super tucano?
Is it not repel attacks we r hearing from media instead of deploying these jets fully on those terrorists..
Wasted 400million dolls just for nothing

They acquired Tucanos in orderti operste precision guided missiles and reduce collateral civilian casualties. They could've purchased precision guided missile systems from China or Russia.

Crush kee you there you bunch of nation saboteurs.

Hahahaha this Buhari and his people can be funny seriously.Now two house assembles are unison and asked Buhari to designate his Fulani Herdsmen Bandits as terrorist this man have suddenly gone dumb and deaf but if it's IPOB that is fighting for their freedom this wicked man with vindictive mind will rush with thunder light to proscribed and designated IPOB as terrorist and evil tribes in this Zoo country will be insulting Igbos for rallying around IPOB.Nigerians should keep on hating Igbos especially Yorubas while Buhari and his Fulani brothers keep perfecting their Othman Dan Fodio agenda on Nigerians

PrinceOfLagos:
They cannot deploy Tucano jets to fight the bandits terrorists in the north, but they can deploy helicopter to the south east to bomb and kill innocent civilians

Useless people

That was when they have not refused Super Tucano Jets but now they have trust me it was actually bought to decimate South East but the recent event by IPOB/ESN by exposing their evil plan to the world during Orlu bombing have made them to becareful

AntiBMC:


So in other words, the tucano jets are for biafrans whom the Fulani govt quickly proscribed and tagged terrorists; but Fulani terrorists who have taken over Niger state and Borno, killed countless people/soldiers and even shot down planes are mere bandits and small criminals?

Issoryt.

Will you blame Buhari and his Fulani brothers that run this government for all the atrocities going on in this shit country when Yoruba's,Housa's,Middle Beltern's hatred for Igbos with passion is the reason why they do whatever they and damn everybody

The PUNCH reliably learnt on Monday that the Armed Forces told the National Assembly, through its committees, that the agreement signed with the Government of the United States was that the A-29 Super Tucano fighter jets procured from the country would be deployed against terrorists and insurgents, and not bandits.

I find the above excuse by the Nigerian Military for NOT deploying the Tucano fighter jets against the bandits in the north very laughable and disingenuous. What's the difference between the actions of their so called "BANDITS" and the TERRORIST BOKOHARAM? In everyone's mind, both are one and the same. Is the Terrorist Fulani government of Liegeria focusing more on label than the acts being committed by the bandits? It seems like the government is NOT interested in whatever atrocities (killing, raping, maiming and kidnapping for ransom) their bandits are committing as long as they are not labelled a TERRORIST group, they can keep on killing. If that's the case as their nonchalant behavior towards these criminal acts suggests, then LIEGERIA is DONE! No wonder it quickly ran to the court to proscribe IPOB as a TERRORIST group with no iota acts of terrorism on IPOB's part. This goes to show that the government is very dishonest and has a hideous agenda against the Igbos.

Soon we'll hear that they are paying ransom to bandits to get back their jets.

I think we should borrow these people brain if they don't know what to do ; reclassify bandits as a terrorist Organization and immediately America will sees nothing wrong in using your Tucano to crush them...that is all

Clearly some people are protecting fulani terrorists

They are listed among the top 3 most vicious terrorists in the world.

What other type of designation do you require?

Yes

is that the evidence?

Until Buhari deem it fit to so-called the "Fulani Bandits" terrorists, I maintain my stand.

Bandits that have the capability of bringing down an airforce plane is no ordinary bandit.
Bandits who can kidnap scores of students at a time and succeed in negotiating release of the students in about six successive branches after ransomes are paid (with the government either turning a blind eye OR grossly incapable of doing anything about it) are no ordinary bandit.

Until Buhari see it otherwise sir, I maintain my stance!

Boko Haram = Hard copy terrorism
Bandits = Soft copy terrorism we mumu for dis country no be small.
