DieVluit: we are not talking sensational headlines mr man. and by the way, the Nigerian military debunked such propaganda report in the same link you posted. Nigerian military spokesman Chris Olukolade, however, denied that Chadian forces were playing the key role in the attack. “It is the Nigerian forces that planned and are driving the present onslaught against terrorists from all fronts not the Chadian or other forces as propagated by the Western and some local media. The Chadians are however keying very well into and working in concert within the overall plan for an all-round move against the terrorists.” i understand brah, the idea of SA being irrelevant despite holding AU chair hurts your feelings. i like your spirit though. 3 Likes |

" Nigeria said it needed help from Cameroon to police their shared border as it seeks to win a drawn-out battle to crush Boko Haram Islamist militants, a Nigerian official said." your strawman antics is gradually affecting your sense of understanding.

By the way: Nigeria’s security problems are caused by Nigeria, not US human rights laws The February 6 op-ed titled “Nigeria calls for a re-think of the Leahy Law,” claims that the United States has not provided adequate assistance to Nigeria in order to combat Boko Haram. It blames the “Leahy Law,” which bars the U.S. from providing training or equipment to foreign military units that are credibly alleged to have committed gross human rights violations. Mr. Opeyemi’s article greatly understates U.S. assistance to Nigeria and mischaracterizes how the Leahy Law is applied worldwide. The claim that U.S. assistance to Nigeria amounts to only $700,000 is false. That amount is a fraction of the nearly $5 million in security assistance Nigeria receives from the U.S. each year. In fact, the U.S. has attempted to provide assistance that the Nigerian government has refused. In December of last year the Nigerian government canceled a U.S.-led training program that was intended to build the capacity of the Nigerian Army to fight Boko Haram. The op-ed also misrepresents how the Leahy Law works. At the House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing that the article references, Principal Deputy Secretary of State for African Affairs Robert Jackson did not in any way suggest that the entirety of Nigeria was somehow “off limits” to receive U.S. assistance. The Leahy Law is not a blanket prohibition on U.S. security assistance to an entire country. Instead, only the particular unit that is suspected of serious human rights crimes is blocked from U.S. assistance. And even then, assistance can be restored as soon as there is a credible investigation and the responsible parties are held accountable. Nigeria is not being singled out. The Leahy Law applies to every country to which U.S. taxpayers provide military or police assistance. The idea that Nigeria is on a list of “bad” countries prohibited from receiving U.S. aid is wrong. There are no “bad” countries under the Leahy Law, only bad actors committing crimes like murder, rape, and torture while wearing the uniform of a foreign security force. The problem here is not a lack of U.S. support for Nigeria’s military. The problem is a lack of political will from the Nigerian government to develop an effective counterterrorism strategy. The Nigerian security budget is over $5 billion, but corruption and mismanagement prevent Nigerian security forces from getting the supplies and materials they need. While Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan immediately issued a strong statement in response to the terrorist attacks in Paris last month, he was inexplicably slow to even comment on the Boko Haram massacre in Baga. The Nigerian government needs to develop an effective counterterrorism strategy and instill standards of professionalism for its armed forces for there to be any chance of addressing the country’s security challenges. There are many reasons Boko Haram has yet to be defeated; actions taken and opportunities missed within Nigeria have a much greater impact than the Leahy Law.

Do Nigerians flee into Cameroon? Yes, they do. Refugees in other african countries. Cameroon: Stranded Near the Nigerian Border - a Visit to the Minawao Refugee Camp Every day people from Nigeria's restive northeast flee over the border into Cameroon. The Minawao refugee camp on the Cameroonian side is bursting at the seams. DW's Moki Kindzeka met some of its residents. At Minawao refugee camp in northern Cameroon, UN staff are busy registering new arrivals. Refugees who cross the border in search of safety arrive at this camp, where they join over 30,000 others who fled the insurgency in Nigeria's northeastern states. Most of the refugees started to come to the Minawao camp when Chadian, Cameroonian and Nigerian forces attacked Gambaru, Boko Haram's stronghold in Nigeria's Borno state, in early February.... http://allafrica.com/stories/201502240123.html 1 Like |
