onatisi: No Insurgency is easy to defeat, the U.S has been fighting insurgents since 1986, that's 29 years of constant war. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by iblawi(m): 9:38am On Nov 26, 2015 |
onatisi: Fighting insurgency is not like fighting a proper war and only few militaries in the world have the right tactics to fight them. Fighting insurgents in Nigeria is one of the most difficult in the world. We have made many mistakes and we equally learnt a lot from our mistakes. Currently Nigeria military is one of the few militaries in the that have been able to curtail insurgency within it country. It requires a lot of intelligence gathering and tactics and it not a war you fight within few months. 1 Like |

Henry240: The U.S military is not fighting insurgents on American soil. It is fighting in foreign lands. Nigeria is fighting at home in a land the size of two U.S states, and it is failing. You cannot compare the two. 3 Likes |

lionel4power: The US had to travel thousands of miles across the globe to fight the Taliban. That in itself demonstrates the reach, influence and power of the US military. Nigeria couldn't negotiate a presence in Cameroon if it tried. Let alone actually sustaining a long fight there. Nigeria is being useless while it sits at home, where it has access to all the intelligence, financial and legislative support it could ever need. 1 Like |

DieVluit: The US has the world's largest force projection. A single US ship carries more Fighter Jets than the all the combined militaries of west and South-Africa including ( South-Africa and Nigeria) They also have the world's most extensive intelligence gathering capabilities, more Infrastructure than all countries in Africa. Nigeria is no failing, we infact are dealing effectively with the insurgents we face, the facts point to it. Hence countries like France are keen on learning from Nigeria. 1 Like |

DieVluit:you do realise that with just only 2 carrier battle group the USA has more firepower, aircraft, naval vessels and enough infantrymen than the whole of Afghanistan armed forces combined. . yet 15 years later Taliban, AL Qaeda is still active. meanwhile with limited resources the mighty Nigerian military have reduced BH to mere pictures only propaganda group. 1 Like |

lionel4power: I realise your shortcomings. And because of those shortcomings, you need to compare apples with apples. Fighting insurgency at home is nothing like fighting insurgency abroad. The US is fighting insurgency abroad and the fact that they still have not won is no justification for Nigeria's failures at home. The question to be asked is whether Al Qaeda etc would still be active if they were based and operating in the US. You know the answer to that...it's a resounding no. Your failures at home are unacceptable. BH has not been reduced to anything. Instead, they have grown into the deadliest terror group on the planet. This happened under your military's watch. Ample opportunity to wipe them off, you had. But fail, you did. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by DieVluit: 10:22am On Nov 26, 2015 |
Henry240: Exactly, they have the world's largest force projection, but they do not have legislative and tax influence in foreign lands. For example, you've had a state of emergency for how long now? The US cannot declare a state of emergency in Afghanistan, which would give them even more powers. Compare apples with apples. How would the insurgents fair against the US military at home? No need for you to answer that because we all know what the answer is. You are not dealing effectively with the insurgents if they are now the deadliest group on the planet. Bihari's administration has seen a ton of deaths notwithstanding his bravado when electioneering. |

DieVluit:NIGERIA’S ARMY CHIEF SAYS STEADY PROGRESS BEING MADE TO DEFEAT BOKO HARAM XINHUA 24 November, 2015 ABUJA Nigeria’s army chief Lt.-Gen. Tukur Buratai on Tuesday said troops have made a steady progress to soon defeat Boko Haram. “We are not there yet but we are gradually getting there. We are making steady progress,”the Nigerian army chief said when he visited troops of the 72 Special Force Battalion in Makurdi, capital of the north central state of Benue. He said the task of overrunning the deadly Boko Haram terror group must be accomplished on record time. Troops have recently claimed to have arrested key members of Boko Haram, as well as destroyed some of their camps and a rocket-making factory in the northeastern state of Borno. Boko Haram has since 2009 waged a campaign of violence in the West African country in an effort to establish an Islamic state. Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari has given a December deadline for the army to end the Boko Haram insurgency but recent attacks by the group has given citizens cause to doubt the possibility of ending the carnage. Boko Haram, in its six-year violence, has killed some 13,000 people and kidnapped hundreds, with surrounding countries such as Niger, Chad and Cameroon affected. READ AND DIGEST. |

lionel4power: Listen here, chap. You need to make up your mind and decide whether you want to argue that: 1. BH hasn't been defeated because insurgency is difficult to deal with; or that 2. BH has been largely defeated. If you are arguing 2, then you don't need 1 and you have practically wasted everyone's time. So, please decide what your position is. Stop drifting from position to position, thanks. |
