"How you do it" - is you pay for it.

Thats what happened last time.

Thats what will happen again.

And lets not even talk about the massive loss in investor confidence it will cause.

please, enlighten us about what happened the last time if you know what ypu are talking about. don't twist as usual.

patches689:



Good luck with that.

Better luck with the UN

bwahahahahaha... just chill and watch how we do it. your government bit more than it can chew this time.

MikeZA:
His opinion is understandable though.

Utilising the SBS in such roles makes them look like some coast guard special operations force. Also looking at their limited numbers.

they were part of the defunt JTF in maiduguri that pushed boko haram into cameroon initially before the operation was disbanded. And they are also used in some spec. Ops in the North East.

but you can't take away their primary duty which is to safe guard our territorial waters. simply put, they belong solely to the NN.

i would prefer the army develops same policy of equipping the NA special forces like the sbs 'cos those army SF guys kick a.5s too. don't forget these are the same guys who took out shekau 1&2, same guys that about 200 of them defended konduga from thousands of BH fighters that tried to sieze it, took damboa along with 5 other towns from boko haram in a week without a casualty etc.
i think i'll go with the army SF.

there was a leaked operational report some weeks back about the 111 special forces batallion where a SF group was supposed to clear a village captured by boko haram in preparation for an offensive by the military on a major town.
out of a 100+, only 30 men were willing to advance. these 31(including their commander) went in very lightly armed against a heavily armed BH waiting for them.(one APC and about for pickups), probably the reason others refused to advance.
the operation was a success, the village was cleared and the military was able to advance. those who refused to fight are facing court martial right now.

the army SF are also very good even though not as beautifully dressed as the sbs.

IGBOSON1:
So what's the cost then?

The company constructing it is the same one building the new terminals in Nigeria. I think Ghana has a slight advantage over us in that they don't have to do this stupi/d balancing act where anything being built has to be distributed/balanced among all its regions; they can spend the funds on one particular project for the entire country and build something grand and world-class.....and the entire country can have a sense of belonging in the project because they're a proper nation!

And do you realize Ghana is like one the smallest states in Nigeria in terms of land mass. Moreover, Nigeria requires airports in all regions including spreading across states in that region etc. Same goes to every developmental projects.

Clearly you do not need to be lectured on all these thing since you feel you've earned the right to criticize your own country over a smaller and inferior Ghana.

That's the problem with most Nigerians like you, too dumb to be logical on reasoning. What a shame

Is south Africa their native land?

But blek south Africans live and feed like ants in their native home.

bwahahahahahahahaha....*rolls on the floor*

MorrisaMkenya:

Yeah there has been a bad reputation of dictators and rebels but lets hope he intends to change that perception. he has been doing great work lately lets hope he can change that mentality in Affrica

i don't think it has to do with African leaders being influenced by the uniform.

take Nigeria for instance. our current president puts on a uniform in any important military occasion but remains the best democratic leader we have since more than 3 decades of military rule.

the wickedness of men live in their hearts.

are you sure you are in Nigeria?

TB Joshua should be at the forefront of making this happen. i'm suprised he has kept mute all along. no word, no apology. that's pathetic for a spiritual leader(not mine)

you guys should sue that man.

na wetin fit am be dis. waiting for hell rufai yo join him soon.

It's not the only thing that got me roaring with laughter, I just didn't care enough to give a point by point reply to your post simply because, well, I don't care. Whether you visit or not, it changes nothing, we still get millions of visitors each year from countries far better off than Nigeria, so again, zero fux given.

PS: I reply to whatever I feel like replying to, how you feel about it is also not my indaba. You should be honoured that I even replied to your undeserving-of-a-reply scribble.

Have a fantastic day.

#ButtHurt. .

LaBellaMafiaZA:


Kwaaaaaks. Riiiight. I'm not going to say much, but you not wanting to visit S.A = 0 number of fux given by me. You're doing us a huge favour. Much appreciated. Thanks

No energy to reply to the rest, so good evening.

oh sorry, i didn't know it was compulsory to visit SA seeing as it's the only thing that ticked you. whether you give a fvck or not, i honestly don't give fvck how you feel. it's irrelevant to me.

oops! Saw you are female and now regret even replying you invthe first place. dumb male saffers are enough for me.

LaBellaMafiaZA:


I'm not even lying or trying to diss our Naija peeps here, just spreading the gospel truth. Swear to God Almighty.

One of my fave anecdotes about their trip is when the Nigerian aunt tried to cheer Ada up by taking her to "town". Probably to some busy market, I don't know. Anyway, Ada's mother says she felt so embarrassed when Ada looked around & asked "What kind of town is this?". LMAO.

See, she is used to seeing Pretoria city centre & not some dusty market being referred to as a town

Honestly though, even her own parents & their friends joke about it, they call her a South African snob.

Ada's mother took them to a village township. not a city or or urban settlements. that's where most people who have been away for that long go to since family will always be there.

imagine a person who grew up in banana island, vgc, lekki wuse, maitama or any nice suburb in Nigeria relocating or visiting soweto slums or the poor and underdeveloped parts of SA. or don't you have such places in SA?

just like i will never imagine moving to or visiting SA because of the way and kind of environments i grew up. it would be too low for me i swear.

you guys really need to be more logical when you reason. it's a pity.

The Uselessness of the SANDF.



South Africa’s Arms Deal Toys Rotting
October 9, 2014


Weapons acquired during the 1999 arms deal are not being used and are becoming derelict, the Seriti Commission of Inquiry heard on Tuesday [October 7].

“With regards to the 30 Augusta helicopters purchased from Italy, I am informed that many of them are in storage and unused or rotting at Ysterplaat Air Force Base in Cape Town,” arms deal critic Terry Crawford-Browne told the inquiry’s hearings in Pretoria.

“Accordingly, I invite the commission’s members to inspect Ysterplaat, to see for themselves how many there are in their state of airworthiness.”

He said government acquired four frigates that were reportedly equipped with defective engines and an obsolete combat suite and armoury system.

“South Africa acquired three submarines that spend most of the time on the ‘hard’ at Simon’s Town and 50 BAE Hawk and BAE/Saab Gripen fighter aircraft for which the country had almost no pilots to fly them, mechanics to maintain them, or even the money to fuel them.

“The arms deal was a confidence trick played at huge socio-economic cost to the people of South Africa, which has seriously undermined our still-fragile constitutional democracy,” said Crawford-Browne.

The commission was appointed by President Jacob Zuma three years ago to investigate alleged corruption in the arms procurement deal in 1999.

For billions of rands government acquired, among other hardware, 26 Gripen fighter aircraft and 24 Hawk lead-in fighter trainer aircraft for the air force, and frigates and submarines for the navy.

Crawford-Browne said former deputy defence minister Nozizwe Madlala-Routledge was told by senior navy officials that the country had bought the wrong equipment.

“Ms Madlala-Routledge has by e-mail authorised me to reveal this,” he said.

Madlala-Routledge was deputy defence minister from 1999 to April 2004 and deputy health minister from April 2004 to August 2007.

Crawford-Browne said billions spent on these purchases could have been used to improve the lives of South Africans.

“While millions of South Africans struggle daily with the legacies of apartheid and poverty, these men childishly expounded about their pride in so-called toys for boys and other irrelevances,” he said in his affidavit to the inquiry.

“Astonishingly, a purported justification for the acquisition of the BAE Gripen warplanes included protection for the 2010 World Cup.”

The inquiry continues.

As reported by South African Press Association


#bookmarked!!!!!!

bwahahahahahahahahahaha...... i noticed something. every branch of leadership in south africa is saying the same thing about the rot and death of SANDF.

1st it was yhe defence minister, the retirement home Union, and now this. what are we arguing with a dead mikitary for again. .

Ibnsultan:
but amison is responsible 4 90% victry

no doubt. just saying what i saw

Ibnsultan:
Uganda is doing a nice job in Somalia along side kenya. Most of the recent victories were without firefight just sweep & clear

there were also involvements of some PMCs and instructors from US and EU. i saw an AJ DOC about the battle where some white PMCs were instructing the Ugandans on where and how to move. it was a beautiful scene

UjSizzle:

My region is US and she's still not available.

Is it also phone restricted?

change language to English(US) with region too. then restart the phone.

after that check your app list. if it's not there, go to the app store and download it.

pimplucious:
Duhhh! They should emulate China in the area of killing corrupt govt officials instead. Besides, where's ur source?

gbam!! sometimes i wonder whatvkind of cheap drug our illiterate bushmen politicians get high on.

for this country wey winches and wizards don dey fly for day time na e dem want make person get only one pikin. tufiakwa... God forbid.

This Fulan guy is a big joke. first he disappears during boko haram's defeat in konduga to come back with excuses of being interrogated by some phanyom intelligence agencies (profile elevation tactics).
And then comes back to defend boko haram in their latest loss in adamawa.

secondly, it is not news that US is conducting recon drone flights from chad, and Nigeria has also inducted it's own local manufactured drones (gulma) in the North east. so the drones spotted may be of either the Nigerian airforce launched from Mubi North(government controlled territory) or somewhere in Borno since the range of the Gulma is between 500-600km.

thirdly, French commandos in Nigerian Territory is complete hogwash. this mofo comes on his blog to mix obvious incidence with hogwash and claims to be from sources in terror camps.

wetin you want make terrorists tell you? sey the army dey rape dem front and back?

it's either this fulan guy is playing into the hands of boko haram by using him to advance their propaganda warfare against Nigeria or he is infact a boko haram media soldier hiding under the guise of a fake analyst.

Notice how he lashes out at the media even after confirmation from residents who saw troop movements in these towns.

anyome who believes this hogwash needs to get his head examined.

and please if you want to counter me, try not to be insultive as this is something that requires a meaningful and objective debate... thanks

people still dey watch that meaningless show? even if i want kill my brain further i'll rather watch the dumb kadasians show than this. mtcheeew

nkenu: Lets start feeling the impact of the already commissioned dams first befor we start getting excited about this news. Sometimes, its all starts and ends in the front pages of the news peppers. Na wash!!!

go and pay your NEPA bills oga, if you want to enjoy this steady power.

i said it earlier that nations will come here to learn hjow we did it. now a super power has. it remains south africa.

Trollgate can point to no dead mortar victims in South Africa..

finally we getting somewhere. so who's shelling your peaceful neighborhood? does casualty figure matter when shells are fired indiscriminately in suburbs at a time of no militant struggle?

still playing the dunce eh

DieVluit:

Trollgate all over the place. An insurgency where's there's both targeted and indiscriminate killings. Thousands of bodies as a result. Civilian, terrorist and soldier alike. Dying by the thousand. They eat and breathe mortar out there. That's off the hizzy. Trollgate, it's "bwahaha" as you sit down.

yeah, we know. Nigeria is at war. terrorists killing the innocent. is SA?

who's shelling your neighborhood DieVut? SANDF? gangsters? there was a shelling right?

good ostrich you are. Bury it deeper

DieVluit:

The only targeted shelling that's off the hizzy happens in Nigeria, where jets shell friendly troops and civilians. Never mind the indiscriminate killing, which is daily bread in Nigeria. Sit down trollgate.

hahahahahahaha. another one buries his head in sand.

hey dumbo, Nigeria is fighting insurgency and you don't hear of indiscriminate shelling in towns full of civilians. not that i expect you to accept that fact. trollgate

gangsters getting bolder in SA. mortar rounds fired in civilian populations. #NoDullingForTheCrimeCapital

DieVluit:

Oh wow! If this equals "indiscriminately", then the Nigerian situation is off the hizzy ma nizzy! Why don't you sit yourself down, desperate trollgate?

bwahahahahahahahaha..... butthurt meaningless trash talk..
so targeted shelling in joburg it is then? ode
