GlorifiedTunde:Yes, but what does how military do with suspected BH terrorist. Jungle justice? Did you listen to some of the interview Nigerian gave of how our armed forces torture for no reason? Even if BH do have external sponsors there is no credible evidence that the US are sponsors. People here claiming the US are sponsors of ISIS and BH. Have they forgotten that ISIS started killing innocent American and English journalist before they decided to intervene? 1 Like |

it might be difficult to Nigerians to invent something but not difficult to use machine invented by someone even if the machines comes without manual . nobody taught boys in the computer village how to repair spoiled phone . so america should knw that Nigerians are very intelligent when it comes to use usage. |

Why are people blaming america. The simple truth is us does not trust this government. The fact is us is hiding some informations they know about boko haram from the public. Who among us knows whether the sponsors of boko haram are the people in government or the top military officers, u.s would have done some secret investigations on this. The truth is this government can't be trusted, the government that knows the sponsors of boko haram yet they can't release their names nor prosecute them, Nigeria government itself is not complaining about the fall out in this arm deal. If am in charge in America, I can't also sell to nigeria. Let the government come out clean first. 3 Likes |

Ichiato: Seriously? You think the US is that dumb? To give direct support that will have the entire world point at them? US has the most covertly operations. They can get rid of an entire race without a trace. Don't always believe what u see, and don't always doubt what you do not see. Take time to check history, true stories and trends. READ BETWEEN THE LINES BRO. And as for the Nigerian military, I will never support their torturing the innocent. But put yourself in their shoes... No better guns or equipment No better Intel than the enemy The enemy hides in between a people They keep expanding territories Nigerians clamouring for safety Many of our colleagues die, while the enemy keeps taking cover The enemy has a higher support Nigerians think we're incompetent The entire world is laughing at us We know where the enemy is, but innocent lives are beclouding our mission... U think if you were in their shoes you wouldn't do worse? 2 Likes |

barcanista:[color=#006600][/color] Aside the need for you to go for a psychotic test, it seems further spiritual cleansing is needed in your pitiable case. I am yet to come to term with your senseless arguments that often times twist facts to brainwash Nairalanders. Deep down in your heart, can you beat your chest and say APC is not directly or indirectly associated with Boko Haram? Is your brain so senile to draw lines between APC's statements and Boko Haram activities? Do you need further intellectual diagnosis to discern how happy and comfortable APC is with the security situation, which Boko Haram, their military arm are unleashing on our nation in their insane push to rule Nigeria by all means? Your stance on national woes (while satisfying your backers) will stand against you in the future. 1 Like |

DaBullIT:You are so far the only Nigerian i have seen with a brain to reason. I wonder what so many Nigerians has in that their big head. Wether it is brain or water. They can't reason at all. They will just try to politicize everything in Nigeria. They think sophisticated helicopters can be flown like kites? Our military are not united, those muslims soldiers in nigeria don't want to fight boko haram saying it is their broda in islam. Such solders can easily give those choppers to boko haram. 4 Likes 1 Share |

GlorifiedTunde:@the first bolded, you expect me then to believe what I don't and question what I do see? What then is irrationality? @second bolded, are you joking? Does the above list justify what they do to innocent lives? For one if they don't have weapons and no intelligence they can start by at least telling there citizens the truth. Not shekau is dead this minute and the next thing shekau is mounting insurgency in the north. They tell lies every day. Even the US has accused our military of not been transparent with them and we ourselves cannot prove otherwise. How then do we expect them to corporate with us. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Why make so much noise about this arms issue if US refuses to sell go n buy d KA52 alligator from Russia they are in same grade level as cobra and the cost are close to each other. Our government should take responsibility by exploring other options and stop pointing fingers it is not by force to help anybody it is by choice if they say no look for the next best thing. 1 Like |

This story has been on for months now please change topic 1. Nigerians you want to defeat boko-haram? Then work with government on it rather than childish tribal/party rivalry, let's establish a platform to fight terrorism enact programmes like neighbourhood watch, attack shelters/relief shelters, counter terrorism symposiums(reporting suspicious situations can go a long way to save your life),sponsor r&d(even though na 1 kobo you get bring, it takes little drops of water to make an ocean),support and stabilize the legal structure of the country to prosecute criminals effectively no matter their status,support our own private military contractors/consultants to provide their own quota to fighting terrorism,support/motivate the troops and make their living conditions a lot better 2. let our money go into this let our lobbying go into this, celebs "give back to society"? Don't just drop rice with orphanages and shine teeth for camera instead donate to this counter terrorist campaign,religion is the opium of the nigerian people church as una dey collect tithe make collections to support this campaign as well, if government won't do it does not mean we should not try As for america fine they suck and we can do without them as friends but at the same time it is not a good idea to make them into an enemy so all these western hypocrisy talk is useless at this point, democracy does not only mean "rights" of the citizens people also forget that gov't by the people also means that Your duties and obligations are necessary as well.
