They will soon bomb SW...

IGBOs will never ever have any affiliation with killers of our children.

The SW that has never experienced war as a den of COWARDs will be a theater of unending wars soon.

This I have seen.

Of this happened in a normal country the security chiefs would have resigned instantly

This is just a consequence of nepotism... Nigerian security agencies have promoted people based on nepotism since 1970 and the consequences of this over the years is what we see now

Seem videos of Nigerian Army exchanging fire with bandits... Believe me 50% of soldiers killed in the fight against bandits are as a result of friendly fire... They lacked coordination, lacked tack .... A use soldier once commented on a that is his commend gave such comemend he would get arrested instantly

Nothing beats merit nothing

I'm impressed with the commissioner and the LG chair who have summarily dismissed any civilian casualties as collateral damage.
This shows they fully support the president's renewed hope agenda
The north are hereby partners in progress and no longer angry that a southerner is president
Why should we waste time getting the army to clear the area of bandits and save the civilian population when we can simply wipe out the bandits along with their human shield Gaza style
Even ElRufai will be proud of this strike
Every Nigerian Muslim that wailed over killing of civilians with Hamas terrorists in Gaza will love this one no doubt

Is the news true about Simon Ekpa?! 🤥

A Major General once told me most Nigerian Youths don't read and I began to argue with him.

Forgive me sir. You were right.
Authorities... Two security authorities who are not NAF personnel gave the same account which is the truth... But a sensational headline is all most people on this platform with an already biased mind need to start wailing like mad dogs.

You can this is a mistake that has happened over 20 times in the last 10 years

Not having map of settlement in nigeria by our armed forces proves my point, not having conformation before strike proves my point again

You don't strike till u have confirmation that's basic military idea


The state commissioner for internal security, Dr. Nasiru Mu'azu, confirmed that there was bombing the area but said it was not accidental.

According to him, it was a precision strike targeted at terrorists and not civilians.

"Whoever told you that the attack was accidental lied. The bomb was dropped on purpose, terrorists were the target.

"Make no mistake about this, the Nigerian military is highly professional in its operations; they strike after surveillance and then getting the coordinate of their target before striking.”

"You see, Shawu has become notorious for harbouring bandits and other forms of terrorists, that's why the area was targeted," Mu'azu added.

In the same vein, the Faskari Local Government Council chairman, Musa Ado Faskari said, "The airstrike was precise because bandits have infiltrated the community."

When asked about the fate of innocent citizens living in the Shawu, he said, "It's unfortunate that it has happened, but the truth is that there's just no alternative to this. After all, majority of good people have left Shawu because of the heavy presence of bandits.”

"Let me tell you, all around, when kidnapping for ransom is carried out, you'll always get to hear that the plan was hatched in Shawu," Ado said

Chill guy..

Sometimes I've stopped taking news like this with serious attention.
Many times the NAF strikes bandit in the bush it turns out to be civilian casualties.
The truth is can you separate bandits from regular communal people? No.
Bandits makes up a community, they do not leave in isolation, people look at bandit as a group of men living in the bush, when in reality they are a group of people living with their families, numerous wife's and children in certain communities . The NAF understands this that's why they take restrictions, but what happens when a few group of bandits are in company of children, collateral damages.

We see videos of theses guys in jumait prayers with their guns motorcycle and numerous children and unarmed individuals with them. This is a strategic gathering for big win but with its corresponding collateral damages.
Would we keep sparing them waiting for isolation cases while wasting a whole ordinance for 1 or 2 individuals instead of a whole group?

War is always a Grey area, especially areal warfare, drone attack and likes. You'll consider your objectives and likely disadvantages. You make your decisions and live with your conscience what ever collateral you make.
Your collateral damage theory could be overlooked in an international war, however in domestic operations carpet bombing citizens together with terrorists is against Geneva convention. That's why you have SPECOPS to do the job and limit civilian casualties. If what you said is standard practice, people won't be condemning israel for carpet bombing it's citizens in Gaza because of hamas

This commissioner has got no heart for humanity. He speaks of casualties and collateral damage carelessly like it doesn’t matter. They had to do what they had to do, taking the lives of others who are probably innocent. Reminds me of the movie Eye in the Sky. They desperately needed to strike but patiently and stealthily took action while ensuring no innocent life was lost. Nigeria, Airforce is always making stvp?d mistakes.
Re: Nigerian Air Force Bombs Shawu, Katsina 'By Mistake' While Targeting Terrorists by funshint(m): 6:11pm On Nov 21
It's now a common pattern for these northern media houses to always paint any airstrike as mistake. Then does the Airforce work in isolation from Nigeria Army? There should be coordination btw these two I suppose? The question is what happened after the Airstrike? I'd have thought the Army will move in immediately after the airstrike to carry out a clearance operation.
