DieVluit: Your own first report from AP news says clearly : "The civilian fighters held Gulak town after soldiers ran away Sunday night until the military sent reinforcements who fought off the extremists, former council chairman James Ularamu told The Associated Press." http://www.usnews.com/news/world/articles/2015/11/30/boko-haram-destroys-nigerian-military-base-107-troops-mia So it was Nigerian military who eventually fought off the Bokos, and we control the town .

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 2:04am On Dec 01, 2015 |
DieVluit: What's false about the story is the running away. How does a journalist 1,000 km away from the battlefield judge a team of soldiers as having run away when she is also reporting that the same soldiers came back with reinforcements to defeat the Boko fighers? Obviously the soldiers did not leave the fight or if they did, it was to bring reinforcements and more ammunition. Simple common sense. It does not require much intelligence to pick holes in that self contradictory news report. Bottom line is....Nigerian soldiers won the battle and rule the town, any other comment is a waste of time by people who were not on the battlefield....people like you mumu. 1 Like |

Patchesagain: ~ 15,000 Boko Haram fighters killed, dozens of armoured vehicles destroyed, hundreds of Toyota cannon mounted trucks destroyed, all infiltrated 45 towns recaptured in 45 days, every Islamic caliphate destroyed, hundreds of IED or land mines deactivated, Sambisa and four other forests cleared, no more caliphate existing...... a failure?

You don't even know how to do damage control because you always attack media instead of applying your mind. No media in the world would intentionally hurt anyone's reputations for no reasons. Your military fled, otherwise insurgents couldn't have got the better hand of burning down your state property. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by DieVluit: 7:18am On Dec 01, 2015 |
mzilakazi: LOL and when the media says good things, it doesn't get attacked. Funny, cause he now wants to dispute the story based on the facts that the journalists we're not there, while he himself was not there, let alone his having the ability to report on anything. Their base was burnt down because their cowardly soldiers abandoned their posts and ran for dear life. Mere civilians took on the attackers, after which the pathetic soldiers then saw that it was doable after all. Disgusting. |

mzilakazi: What base? In a remote undeveloped village, what base or buildings is available to burn down, ramshackle local compounds of mud houses with dry leaves for roofing, they call a base. Lol. Lol.....Nigerian army is in control over of the town, Boko Haram that launched the attack retreated under Nigerian defensive firepower, so the Bokos who put their vehicles into reverse gear and abandoned mission did not run away, they were advancing into battle and the vehicle in every reverse gear were advancing into battle by driving backwards... Lol....your soweto brain works in reverse gear like the fleeing Boko Haramites. ![]() 1 Like |

Patchesagain: Abandoned base, uniforms, equipment, vehicles, headed in the opposite direction of Seleka forces, Usain Bolted to the airport, jumped into next available flight to South Africa, sleeping at home with wives for the past ~ 3 years..... That is a classic encyclopedia definition of RUNNING AWAY NEVER TO RETURN. |

DieVluit: Show us proof of more civilians taking on the attackers, give us numbers of how many civilians fought since you were there to count fighers on the battlefield. Show us proof. BTW, Nigerian army won the battle, I see no contest here, so what's the noise about since we won the battle and Boko Haram ran away according to your own AP News media report, so what's the argument you have against the WINNER of the battle? You wish it was SANDF winning battle somewhere, sure you do, desperate to find one victory to add on SANDF's curriculum vitae to wipe of the Seleka thrashing of Mandela's elite paratroopers and specials forces ![]() ![]() ![]() . |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by DieVluit: 10:55pm On Dec 01, 2015 |
agaugust: As soon as you show us proof of soldiers taking on the attackers. You don't have a monopoly over deliberate silliness. Since you were there to count the fighters on the battlefield. Show us proof. No one cares about who won the battle. We care only about the fact that they ran. Civilians remained behind to hold the territory. The cowardly soldiers, having been given a lifeline by civilians, came back. Shame on Nigeria. 3 Likes |

agaugust: Who said BH mission was to.capture the town? BH won because they intended to burn down your state property and they achieved just that without any fuss. Your military failed to stop them because they had to run and call in the reinforcements as usual. The ratio of Nigerian military in any war as we come to know it is 5 Soldiers to 1 enemy, that is 5:1. If that ratio cannot be satisfied soldiers run and call in support. In SANDF there is no such, we fight to the last drop of our blood even if the ratio is 10:1. The only limit is when ammo is depleted as in the case in Bangui. |

South Africa Knocks Nigeria off its Perch as “Most Corrupt” African Country South Africa is now believed to be the most corrupt country on the continent, according to a new survey. By Alexis Haden The latest report by Transparency International sees South Africa top the list of countries where citizens believe the problem has got worse in the last year. Over 80% of South Africans who were interviewed thought that corruption had increased over the last year. Ghana and Nigeria are some of the other worst- affected nations. 79% of South Africans surveyed also believe that not enough is being done to curb corruption. On the continent‚ the majority of Africans (58%) say that corruption has increased over the past year. If there is one shining light to the survey it’s that 56% of South Africans surveyed believe that ordinary people can make a difference in the fight against corruption. The survey found that 25% of respondents in SA believe that the most effective way for ordinary citizens to combat corruption is by reporting their experiences‚ followed by a further 22% who identified the refusal to pay bribes as an effective means to fight corruption. With 43‚143 respondents, across 28 countries surveyed, people feel the police, business executives, government officials and the courts were all perceived as corrupt, with 75 million people estimated to have paid a bribe in the past year, AFP reports. Between JZ pouring money into his Nkandla digs, Prasa’s dodgy trainsand countless of other scandals, South Africans aren’t exactly stoked about the state of affairs. “People are outraged, they see this huge spending as part of government corruption,” David Lewis, director of Corruption Watch, a local anti-graft organisation, told AFP. “Corruption creates and increases poverty and exclusion,” Transparency International head Jose Ugaz said in a statement. source: www.thesouthafrican.com/south-africa-knocks- nigeria-off-its-perch-as-most-corrupt-african- country/ 1 Like |
