ABUJA – THE Nigerian Airforce,Saturday night,said a carefully planned major attack on troops of the Nigerian Army deployed in Operation Lafia Dole, in the North east, was foild by its Air Task Forces earlier in the day. The Chief of the Air Staff, Air Mshl Sadique Abubakar inspecting the newly weaponized NAF alpha jet after test. The Air Force, in a statement by its spokesman, Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola, said but for the quick intervention of its Air Task Force, the insurgents would have engaged the ground troops on another fierce battle. Daramola’s statement read thus:”Air Task Force,ATF of Operation LAFIYA DOLE, over the night of 14 September and early morning of 15 September 2018, tracked and destroyed some Boko Haram Terrorists (BHT) vehicles as they were attempting to launch fresh attacks on ground troops locations at Gudumbali and Damasak in Borno State. ” The mission was initiated following intelligence reports indicating that a convoy of BHT vehicles had been sighted within the Damasak – Gudumbali Axis. “Accordingly, a Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) platform was dispatched to search for and locate the convoy of vehicles. “The ISR aircraft spotted vehicles at a location 24 Km SW of Gudumbali heading in a Northwards direction. ” Consequently, a helicopter gunship was scrambled to attack the convoy. “The helicopter arrived the location and was vectored to the position of the vehicles, which, at the time, were about midway between Nigerian Army (NA) locations at Metele and Arege. ” Following communications with ground troops, the BHT vehicles were positively identified, isolated and attacked by the helicopter gunship in successive strikes. “In the process, four of the vehicles were immobilized and their occupants neutralized. “The ISR aircraft continued to track the remaining five vehicles, which initially dispersed but later regrouped and continued their retreat to Tumbun Rego. “They were subsequently attacked at their harbour location by the freshly rearmed helicopter gunship; with three direct hits recorded on the vehicles. “A follow-up attack on the newly discovered insurgents’ logistics base in Tumbun Rego was conducted by two Alpha Jet aircraft later in the morning today. ” The makeshift buildings and other falcilities in the base were accordingly destroyed in the air strike. The NAF, working in concert with surface forces, will sustain the momentum of operations with a view to destroying vestiges of the insurgents in the Lake Chad green fringes and other areas in Northern Borno.” Read more at: https://www.vanguardngr.com/2018/09/breaking-naf-troops-avert-fresh-boko-haram-attack-on-soldiers-in-borno/ 6 Likes |

kenpaul0: Bros, am sure i was not giving support to anyone. I only gave my view on the matter. If the pic below is what you refer to as cache of arms then i give up. Secondly, i made this clear in my post "What ever they left was nothing compared to what boko haram brought in. So its not really a big plus".

allexpensive: 300 boko haram members disappeared? Is this a joke? What is the airforce doing with all their ISR planes at a time like this? If they had time to retreat, they must also have time to destroy most of the weapons they can't carry along. This one weak me sha, because something more than this will happen again and very soon. 4 Likes |

The Nigerian Army on Sunday said it had restored total nomalcy in Gundubala and environs with combined effort of troops of Operation Lafiya Dole deployed to the area. Newsmen report that scores of jihadists in gun trucks and various caliber of arms, stormed the town and engaged in fierce battle that lasted for many hours with the troops. Brig.-Gen. Texas Chukwu, Director Army Public Relations, who disclosed this in a statement in Maiduguri, said combined troops of 82 Division Task Force Brigade and 158 Task Force Battalion conducting Counter Insurgency Operations in North Eastern Nigeria, had encounter with Boko Haram insurgents in Gudumbali in Guzamala Local Government Area of Borno State. “The encounter took place when the insurgents attacked the community, set some buildings ablaze and quickly withdrew from the community. However, no human casualty was recorded in the encounter. “The troops have regrouped and normalcy have been restored. The troops have also been reinforced with additional troops to dominate the general area. “It will be recalled that Gudumbali is one of the communities in Borno that were recently reoccupied by Internally Displaced Persons who had voluntarily returned to their ancestral homes. “The people of Gudumbali community and Guzamala Local Government in general are urged to remain calm and resilient as Operation Lafiya Dole troops tirelessly combat the terrorists. “They are also implored to maintain high level of vigilance and monitor strange faces to prevent fleeing Boko Haram terrorists from infiltrating and hibernating in their communities. “The good people of the North East are assured of the unalloyed resolve of troops of Operation Lafiya Dole to continue to combat the Boko Haram terrorists in the region,”Chukwu said.

mekuslogan: You are the real dummy. Most of our foreign loans are from world bank (49%) and eurobond. Nigerian will confortably pay off Chinese loans even if it is 5x what it is now. I really pity the small African countries trying to bite more than they can shew, like Kenya, Zimbabwe, Zambia etc. |

bidexiii: Brother, you heard just like we all hear different things online. The truth of the matter is that we all believe when a military base is overrun weapons most be left behind. What ever they left was nothing compared to what boko haram brought in. So its not really a big plus. allexpensive: Like you are being robbed with guns and you are think the knife in your pocket will add to the robber's capability. If those troops had the large cache of arms you claim they left, they wouldn't have retreated without a good fight. 1 Like |

People complain like babies here sha. Fighting terrorist is not the same as fighting bandits. If the military got info. 3 days before, the town was also deserted as at the time of the attack, the boys on ground were also asked to retreat and even directed out of the area by NAF plane and most of you think they know nothing about it? It's not about the approach, the military cares about result. All i see here is more like a Honeypot. You guys should relax abeg. We go hear story soon. 1 Like |

Henry240: For me, I think its under utilization of resources. Producing oil of about 1.8mbpd alone wouldn't serve a population of almost 200 million. Algeria produce 1.2mbpd with population of just 40 million. Our economy should have been dependent on agricultural, manufacturing, mining and oil. We had all but the other 3 died because we all wanted quick money. Little work plenty money. For example, textile industries in Nigeria around 1990 were around 150 with a population less than 100 million but today we have less than 30 textile industries with almost 200 million population. Until we learn to utilize our resources we will keep moving in circles. 9 Likes |
