If that bridge is destroyed, or attacks on travelers renders the road inaccessible, as a practical matter the only way to get to Maiduguri will be by air. Boko haram are formidable enemies in their opperation. The picked their soft targets well going after major roads, power lines. If they hypothetically take over this last road all they'd have to contend with airforce as their major threat. After that what left to destroy besides Maiduguri airport. 1 Like |

Though it is unclear the extent to which either Boko Haram faction actually governs territory, it is now able to operate in three states, especially Borno, and in some places it even provides a modicum of governance. Their governance structure is actually pretty impressive. They were able to take control of the local economy because of the Nigerian Army's fishing ban. Boko haram taxes residents in the lake chad area, facilities trade and employs people. They manage to be fair by not harassing them futher and avoiding multiple taxation. In ISWAP-controlled areas, fishermen, fish dealers and cattle rearers are all expected to pay taxes. Fish dealers pay an average of N1 000 (US$2.8 ) for every carton of fish leaving the island daily. Individual fishermen using canoes each pay N5 000 (US$13.8 ) for one-time fishing permits. |

They seem to be gaining grounds everyday. have they been technically defeated as fg claims. Yes. They no longer hold territories lyk before as fg claim o. So what if they have change technique. if u play against a team lyk barca or mancity that plays possesive,tiki taka football. 1st half u win possesion 85% 15%. Ur coach says he has techniqually defeated them. They change tactics. They suprisingly Play counter attack. Knack u 6goals. after the match ur coach still claims he has techniqually destroyed the opponent. Each tym u play them u win possesion. U disrupt their traditional way of playing. They play counter attack. Win u. if the coach still boasts. He is mad. It seems bh&iswap nw kill christians,attack so called soft target. And they are ok. if fg still boasts. They are mad. 5 Likes |

It remains to be seen whether the isolation of Borno is part of a larger Boko Haram strategy and whether is presages a return to occupying and governing territory. Even if they do capture the more territory can they hold it. Does Borno have many natural barriers? Their numbers arent big enough for conventional warfare. They're better off using guerrilla warfare. Unless the can take down planes it's doesn't seem feasible to me. Worst of all they're landlocked and can easily be starved out and attacked from multiple fronts. Lol since borno is already a sharia state all boko haram has left is establishing a caliphate and jizya tax. There's no long term goals besides expanding as much possible. |

saaron: The United States is actually considering scaling back Africom. There's more pressing issues in South china sea. Lol call Russia or China. President Trump has said that he wants to get the United States out of “ridiculous Endless Wars, many of them tribal, and bring our soldiers home.” Although Pentagon officials say no decisions have been made, the effort has generated a rising bipartisan tide of concern that the United States will cede influence to rival nations such as Russia and China and do less to counter extremist groups with links to al-Qaeda and the Islamic State. The Pentagon has about 6,000 troops in Africa, including about 1,400 in West Africa, primarily in Niger, said Air Force Col. Chris Karns, a military spokesman.

Incase you guys are wondering what boko haram's target. Losing this position would be a big blow. The governor would have relocate the capital. Since 2014, soldiers and the police have battled to prevent Boko Haram from attacking the Benishek Bridge which is the only bridge on the 135km-long road linking Maiduguri and Damaturu. Benishek is the headquarters of Kaga local government area of Borno state. |
