dragon2: Correct 2Kobo !!!! You just summarized the final solution to this 10 year insane insurgency, this is the only known strategy Nigeria has not yet used because in a strange way, MoD, ONSA, NA Procurement units have never suggested or tried it. Yet we want to win CT-COIN war? Such asymmetric wars are driven by mechanized infantry/composite regiments, platoon-centric frontline fighting units. The platoons need light weight < 5 tonne, light foot print, high speed, all terrain urban field land amphibious Motorized infantry vehicles combined with medium weight < 15 tonne, heavy anti-gun-truck firepower, enemy battalion size assault force suppression firepower, accurate firepower range 1 km to 4 km effective on a point target. Add the; full platoon (every soldier connected not only Oga NCO & CO) comms + personal night vision, add that Platoon Level long range thermal vision you said – and hey, get all the other smart human aspects of CT-COIN conflict right, and this bloodie war is over for ever! A Nigerian mechanized infantry platoon of 50 troops must have enough modern equipment firepower to fight alone and totally defeat 400 or else we are no longer a quality army and continental power !!! A task force deployed detachment of Nigerian mechanized infantry company of 200 troops must be able to fight alone to hold their AOR for a calculated number of days, against a calculated number of repeated enemy assaults, without degrading into a combat ineffective unit/detachment. Those who should do what you say are not interested, they have photos of good IFVs on their Samsung phone, you see pics of our AFSF DHQ and ONSA MoD top shots playing with ATGMs at annual European Arms Expo – but they just think the day this war spending ends, they will be missing something ![]() ![]() Nigerians just need to learn to be sincere with ourselves, like does Rwandan MoD do better procurement? Rwandan population is half of Lagos ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It's not all about ignorance, low budget, etc, it includes failure to buy right things for national defence and nobody gets sacked from office or demoted for it. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by Jimi24: 7:49pm On Mar 07, 2020 |
jln115: Yes o. Nigeria is a signatory to cluster munitions treaties but every one looked away all the times we used it against Boko Haram. It is one of the reasons BHT/ISWAP operate in cells and gangs. There will never be a large BHT base until the group is eliminated hopefully this year. NA Sigint should be monitoring BHT comms more industriously. They need to have made many calls to mobilize for the recent attacks on soft targets and civilians from many of their cells. We should have been.waiting. 1 Like |

SUPREMACY BATTLE IN BOKO HARAM/ISWAP LEADERSHIP/ FIGHTERS AMONG THE KANURIS, HAUSAS AND THE CHADIANS All is indeed not well in the terrorists' camps as highly reliable sources have again confirmed growing animosity, distrust, division and deepening crisis in the BHT/ISWAP Camps. Current reliable information received on Saturday the 7th of March, 2020 has revealed that there is indeed further division, mistrust and deepening crisis within the terrorists' camps. The latest open hostility in the terrorists' camps came about as a result of the fall out of the recent attack on GARKIDA in Adamawa State and the pyrrhic attempt to capture Damboa in Borno State that was jointly executed by three deadly groups of the sect. The monumental losses both in men and equipment the terrorists suffered has aggravated the suspicion between and among the groups. Some are accusing others of leaking information of the planned attack to the security agencies and outright lack of will to fight with some of the fighters took to their heels in the face of the fire power of the Nigerian Army. At the moment, highly reliable sources have further indicated that there has been acrimonious infighting over what the terrorists described as "the fierce struggle for the acquisition and control of booty" such as proceeds of kidnappings, robberies and attacks on vulnerable targets by the Abubakar Shekau led group and the other two prominent groups of the terrorists sect. Reliable sources have alerted that the acrimonious struggle for supremacy and control of booty has again led to the extermination of one of the leaders of the insurgents' groups by members of the other 2 terrorists' groups. In retaliation, the group whose leader popularly known as Amir ibn Abdulfatawi (who was appointed less than two months ago) was killed decided to avenge the killing by executing the leader of one of the 2 groups (whose identity is yet to be ascertained) who masterminded the killing of their leader. Subsequently, the situation got worse when they went back to Lake Chad area. At the Lake Chad area, the Budumas and Yantawawen Chad (Chadian twins) who have upto 400 members demanded to produce a leader and overall Commander of the sect to specifically take Charge of the Chad basin. As this was brewing, the Hausa - Fulani elements among the BHTs expressed misgivings, - arguing that nobody should address or deliver sermon to them in Kanuri language anymore, and warned that they will never accept it again, citing what they termed as "increasing negation of the original tenets of holy Quraan and prophetic hadith" by the Kanuri Amirs. At Present, there is serious crack and fierce acrimony and conflict of interest as well as infighting and battle of supremacy in the terrorists' camps, - a development that if well utilized by the Nigerian security forces could surely hasten the final and total destruction of Boko Haram and ISWAP's terrorism in the country. 2 Likes |

Jimi24: My brother no be small tin o ![]() Kudos to those Nigerians who have strong will for country, deep pity for our troops using teeth to pull out nails from furniture like poor carpenters without tools, servicemen dying young leaving family behind all because they lack right equipment and training to beat the levels BHT-ISWAP monster into. This new funding covers everything for all tri-services, total amount is still being figured out while the most important aspect, the final passage of bill and assents of upper chamber, then executive is going on concurrently. You wont hear much update unless you go to chambers exact day bill is listed for floor again. The thousands of ordinary Nigerians who fought for this will never be known, those in big positions will take the glory in history, but sha common Nigerians stood up for themselves sha o! People who know how to do leg work from ward, local council areas, legislators constituency offices, NGOs, various pressure groups, then simultaneously combine smartly saturating social media and public news space with this new slogan of 'Insecurity Everywhere In The Land' these ordinary people have shown what we Nigerians can achieve when we ignore our differences in politics, religion, tribe, and fight against the common enemy. Ezeugwu MRAP decision, this official FGN adoption is the only way to save it's future, because current army leadership will retire one day and like when people were calling for their removal weeks ago (for which Mr. President says he is not in a hurry to replace old chiefs who couldn't end this war with new chiefs who also cannot end same war) it can threaten continuity for Ezugwu and we end up losing its loss as soon as we gain it. Looming future is very bad for all of us from Lagos Kano Minna to Enugu, same evil wind already across all N S E W four cardinal points of our homeland, giving rise to Amotekun Vigilante type of self help but it can't stop ordinary Boko H talk less of ISIS W.A. American immigrant visa ban against us Nigerians (likely soon be reversed as FGN high power committee is working hard to meet all US Government demands) is a warning from outside that Nigeria's security condition is rotten inside. Officially The American Government based on advise from AFRICOM boots on ground honest no BS assessment, has decided to now downgrade mission objective for all Sahel & L. TChad Basin West Africa to strictly containment only of all Jihadi Insurgencies, meaning America is no longer interested or trying to defeat any of AQIM, Ansar Dine, Tebu Insurgents, MNLA, MOJWA, Boko Haram, Tuareg Insurgents, ISWAP, etc. All are now to be merely contained by African regional forces like G-5, MJNTF, ECOWAS Governments Armed Forces that allowed these insurgents grow monster strength beyond defeat. AFRICOM concludes that BHT-ISWAP will continue indefinitely in Nigeria unless Nigeria acquires new war fighting capabilities that it does not currently have now. Abuja legislators also interpret that official US DoD document release to mean Nigeria cannot defeat this insecurity in our land unless we fully retool, revamp, rebuild, re-equip, retrain our Army as a whole, then do same for Air Force, Navy, only then do we have hope to win, or else what we are crying now is just the beginning of tears. If you hear hot language being used inside legislative chambers by legislators, fear go catch you, like "What is coming ahead will consume all of us," "These dangers will eventually not select target, everybody will finally become a target". I think the tragic end of some top military men who died like common man has shown the wiser ones that safe life when in government position does not last forever, when big men leave office they become vulnerable like you and me. Many hardened elites who dont care have been left behind in their imaginary permanent personal security bubble of self-deception, people driving level B7 armour Lexus or Range Rover in Nigeria, imagine B7 level, bullet proofing resistant to sniper rifle, assault rifle, squad level assault weapon, general purpose machine gun, all calibres 7.62mm Armour Piercing, many of your top government officials have this B7, most use B6, so they dont care about public outcry of insecurity, forgetting they cannot continue in B6, B7 cars when they leave government jobs. My good gentleman, main prayer now is how these billions will be spent, whoever wants air assets, land assets, marine assets, this will be their big chance to buy in good numbers not 2 or 3 like under normal budget. Army can build air fleet and same time new vehicle fleet, and various man portable hi-tech hardware, from fund incoming. Procurement decisions will be done jointly by Federal Ministry of Defence, Office of National Security Adviser, Army, Navy, Air Force, all sharing authority for procurement, but if Mr. President does not want bad decisions, he can much influence all of them under the Executive's control.

Yusuf Gadgi, the Chairman of the House of Representatives’ Committee on Navy, on Wednesday challenged the Nigeria Navy (NN) to start building its own warships. He said that the NN had the required competence and expertise to build its own warships without any intervention. Gadgi said this on Wednesday after a Stakeholders’ Meeting and at the end of a three-day oversight visit to the various naval commands in Lagos. He said that during the course of the committee members tour, they noticed that boats and ships were produced at the Naval Dockyard, Victoria Island. “During the course of our visit, we noticed that the Nigeria Navy acquired some boats from South Africa. If South Africa can produce boats, we have our own naval dockyard to do so. “What stops the government from investing in the naval dockyard to an extent, since it has produced some of the boats and ships we want, why can’t we increase its capacity? “We as the giant of Africa will be able to produce boats and ships for the babies of other West African countries,” he said. He also said that one of the issues the committee would work on would be government’s centralised opinion on the navy. “We have a competent navy that will be able to look at the kind of ships that they want and look at the type of vessels they want. “We should be able to empower and allow them to have free-hands to acquire those things. “Not other agencies buying vessels and ships that cannot even stand the test of time, ” he said. Gadgi assured the command that the committee would look into the challenges facing the navy, especially, in the areas of finance and recruitment of personnel. “As a committee, with the challenges we have seen, we are willing to make decisions that will further promote operations of the navy considering the commitment shown by officers and the Western Naval Command,” he said. He said that a larger stakeholders’meeting would hold in Abuja after all the members of the committee would have submitted their reports. “We know that after going to the central and eastern commands, including the units that operate in all those areas, the largest stakeholders’ meeting will still hold in Abuja. “There, we will be able to digest the challenges and find lasting solutions to all the challenges being faced by the maritime-related sectors, ” he said. He said that the committee had identified intimidating challenges which if they were not looked into, they might dent the prestige of the Nigeria Navy. He assured them that the challenges would be solved. He, however, commended the Nigeria Navy and the Western Naval Command for their tremendous works on the maritime front. Rear Adm. Oladele Daji, the Flag Officer Commanding (FOC) Western Naval Command, also commended the committee for visiting the command and identifying with some of the issues confronting the navy in general. “The visit of the committee has been very enlightening in terms of advice and areas of intervention that will ensure that the operations of the Western Naval Command are enhanced. “I want, on behalf of the officers, ratings and civilian staff members, of not only the Western Naval Command but all other commands in Lagos, to sincerely thank you for your energy and drive, the commitment and sincerity of purpose with which your committee performed its oversight function. “We have been receiving delegations before now but this has been the most engaging and most productive, ” he said. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the committee members’ visited the Navy Ordnance Depot, Special Boat Service and Joint Maritime Security Centre. They also went to the Underwater Warfare School, Nigeria Reference Hospital, the newly commissioned apartments for personnel, the Stadium, the Nigeria Navy Secondary School and the Naval Air Base within the Ojo barracks. They were also at NNS ships in BEECROFT, Naval Base BEECROFT, Naval Training Command, the Naval Dockyard Limited, Naval Doctrine and Assessment Centre, Forward Operating bases in Igbokoda and Badagry respectively. 1 Like |
