jln115: It is a free world so you could choose to distort facts & acronyms which obviously shows your lack of decorum and respect for others—a bad thing. The "NDF" in my mention you copied does not represent your misguided thinking but is the acronym for Nigeria's "National Defence Fund". The Nigerian military is officially known as The Armed Forces of Nigeria or The Nigerian Armed Forces or unofficially the Nigerian Military. Act accordingly jln115. Would be appreciated. 1 Like |

Covert1: National defence fund.....really bro?? you want to tell me im distorting fact?? Yet you just made up an imaginary fund.....Nigeria has a defence budget not a fund........We all know the NDF in your post was reference to the Nigerian armed forces, all you are doing now is trying to cover up because I exposed your hypocrisy. Nobody including yourself had an issue with me using the acronym NDF....it just now because you are bored or something that you want to start a fight! 4 Likes |

Kenya is getting 3 very modern aircrafts, a very good start Leonardo confirmed the supply to Kenya of 3 C-27J SPARTAN tactical transport aircraft and an unspecified number of AW-139 helicopters. As for the C-27J, Kenya will be the first customer to receive the winglet aircraft and the new avionics suite, and with further modifications that make the C-27J more efficient and operationally less expensive. Deliveries should start in 2019. Africa thus confirms itself as a privileged market for the C-27J after the aircraft has already been ordered by Chad, Zambia and Morocco, while further prospects could be realized shortly as announced by AD Profumo in the occasion of the presentation of the industrial plan last January. http://www.portaledifesa.it/index~phppag,3_id,2435.html 1 Like

jln115: Bored my foot! Are you in the island of the blind. Tolerating your abuse of the acronym "NDF" in reference to the honored men and women under arms in Nigeria does not mean I don't have an issue with it. I watched this long giving the signs all along by using the correct designation to see if you would tow the path of honor and correct yourself but you clearly deliberately remained provocative. Again I'll tell you for the umpteenth time the "NDF" as you insinuate does not exist in Nigeria. What exists is the Armed Forces of Nigeria. Copy! And you especially must get over this obsession with Nigeria's defense budget. We have told you repeatedly that Nigeria has multiple sources of funding for it's defense needs. Nigeria's defense budget in it's totality as I've told you time and time again is opaque and what is expended yearly is much more than what obtains on paper that way sensitive national security investments are classified. In this case the "NDF" I refer to is a National Development Fund one of such vehicles which the Federal Government uses to fund sundry and state related covert and overt requirements in furtherance of national security objectives. |

Covert1:- 1.I repeat.....nobody in 4 years had a problem with me using the acronym NDF.......since i explained the reason i use it long ago.Even other Nigerians, INCLUDING YOURSELF use the acronym NDF when referring to the Nigerian armed forces! - 2.Dont have an obsession with the Nigerian defense budget......in the 4 years i've been on Nairaland i've only mentioned your budget a handful(Maybe 4 times?) of times,most them in a mutual friendly discussion with your fellow Nigerians. - 3.random B.S i dont care about - 4.more random B.S -5.Now it's the National development fund so what happened to the National defence fund trying so hard to dig yourself out of the the hole yet falling deeper and deeper in it Covert1: |

jln115: For starters I don't refer to the Armed Forces of The Federal Republic of Nigeria as the "NDF". So hold your fire and look elsewhere. Your response to the 3 & 4 parts of my mention you highlighted shows you are pained moreso grievously pained by envy. Well of course you lack such mechanisms back home. No surprise there but pls save us ur pain. Your lack of exposure being self-evident in your insistence on what is wrong is not my fault rather perhaps a reason of u being a Protègè of the cynic thinking that emanates from Soweto yet again I'll help your insolence one more time in that the fund referred to is only a cover for nocturnal national duties and can more accurately be called what I termed it. That you are not in the intelligence business should make you all the more humble to learn. Brilliant minds on here grasp my point. Would you too jln115 and follow suit. |

SECRET WAR The U.S. Has Conducted 550 Drone Strikes in Libya Since 2011 — More Than in Somalia, Yemen, or Pakistan THE UNITED STATES has conducted approximately 550 drone strikes in Libya since 2011 , more than in Somalia, Yemen, or Pakistan, according to interviews and an analysis of open-source data by The Intercept. The Intercept’s reporting indicates that Libya has been among the most heavily targeted nations in terms of American remotely piloted aircraft and radically revises the number of drone strikes carried out under the Obama administration, doubling some estimates. During a four-month span in 2016, for example, there were approximately 300 drone strikes in Libya, according to U.S. officials . That’s seven times more than the 42 confirmed U.S. RPA attacks carried out in Somalia, Yemen, and Pakistan combined for all of 2016, according to data compiled by the Bureau of Investigative Journalism, a London-based nonprofit news organization. The Libya attacks have continued under the Trump administration, with the latest U.S. drone strike occurring last week about 50 miles southeast of the town of Bani Walid. Tracking drone strikes can be confusing, so much so that even the U.S. military has difficulty accurately tallying them. Since last fall, the Trump administration has carried out 18 airstrikes in Libya, according to official U.S. Africa Command press releases and confirmed media reports, but only 11 according to an AFRICOM spokesperson. Before a congressional committee in March, even AFRICOM’s own chief, Gen. Thomas Waldhauser, provided an incorrect count of airstrikes in Libya in 2016. Changes in how strikes are defined and counted, a refusal to provide information on the aircraft used and where they originate from, and new Trump administration policies limiting disclosures of attacks have made already opaque operations even more secretive and difficult to track. “Probably very few people outside the U.S. government are even aware the U.S. is fighting in Libya, let alone conducting hundreds of lethal drone strikes there. And the U.S. seems to be quite selective about which strikes it publicizes and which it doesn’t,” said Daphne Eviatar, director of security with human rights at Amnesty International USA. “Because these are unmanned aircraft that are launched remotely from bases abroad, it’s very easy for the U.S. to keep these operations secret if it chooses to. And we’re seeing increasingly that, especially outside acknowledged areas of armed conflict such as Iraq and Syria, the U.S. has been operating in secret and not even sharing publicly the rules or legal framework it’s operating under.” ........

Covert1:How am i pained by envy? the things you mention don't exist, they are a figment of of imagination............. I mean: "fund referred to is only a cover for nocturnal national duties and can more accurately be called what I termed it" no sane minded person would post such rubbish on a public forum Dude your lies aren't even consistent first NDF stood for National defence fund, which doesn't exist.... then your following post you said it stood for National development fund which im also certain doesn't exist but if it does it has nothing to to due with the the NDF/NAF. you've been exposed as a hypocrite except it and move on. |
