Nigerian army ground offensive seen in this report. You can also spot some locally produced vehicles. On behalf of all Nigerians we apologise for the low picture quality of NTA, they asked for 500 million dollars to upgrade, Nigerians said NO!! Cool report still. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVT5GlKhYzk 1 Like |

The military has begun massive deployment of troops and war equipment in the North-east for a final showdown with Boko Haram and Islamic State for West Africa (ISWAP), THISDAY’s investigation has revealed. THISDAY gathered that the Chief of Defence Staff and head of the military establishment, General Abayomi Olonisakin, has given the final directive to the troops to crush the insurgents in line with an earlier marching order given by President Muhammadu Buhari. Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Tukur Buratai, and the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, have since relocated to the North-east to coordinate the military operations in compliance with the directives. Buratai has vowed to remain in the North-east to coordinate the war until the insurgents are defeated and the head of the terror group, Abubakar Shekau, captured. THISDAY also gathered from military intelligence sources that the renewed military campaign may force Shekau to surrender and negotiate amnesty for himself and his top commanders. There were speculations at the weekend that the terror leader had reached out to a Non- Governmental Organisation (NGO) to facilitate an amnesty agreement with the federal government. But military sources could not confirm the claims. THISDAY gathered that the military high command was unsettled by the claim of the Chadian President, Idris Deby, that his country has eliminated 80 per cent of the insurgents and called out Nigeria and Niger via an April 22 deadline to occupy territories in the two countries Chadian troops seized from the insurgents. Deby’s position was said to have created the impression of an alliance between the Nigerian forces and the terrorists, an allegation the Nigerian military has debunked. Investigation showed that since the Boko Haram’s encounter with the Chadian forces, the terrorist group has not launched any major attack against the Nigerian troops, thus validating the claims by Deby that his forces had disorganised the group. Before the Chadian forces dislodged the group from their locations, the terrorists’ attacks on the locations of the Nigerian troops were so frequent that the military had to redeploy top commanders involved in the terror war shortly before the Chadian army had a fierce encounter with the group. The impression of many people in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital and birthplace of Boko Haram, is that the Chadian forces had thoroughly weakened the terrorist group and that the Nigerian military should follow up to defeat them. However, determined to end the war, THISDAY learnt that the Defence Headquarters had ordered a massive deployment of troops and equipment in the North-east. Multiple military sources confirmed to THISDAY that over 100 battle tanks with an 18-kilometre firing range were deployed in the past two weeks. The war equipment, it was learnt, were part of the military hardware procured from Chinese arms manufacturing firm, Norinco. They include 35 main battle tanks, 25 Typhoon MRAPs (mine-resistant, ambush-protected vehicles), 10 Spartan armoured personnel carriers, 20 Armoured Guard Booths, five armoured mine-clearing vehicles, 50 troop-carrying vehicles and 40 Buffalo vehicles, among others. Others include VT-4 main battle tanks, SH5 105 mm self-propelled artillery among others. Apart from the efforts of the land forces, the Air Task Force of Operation Lafiya Dole has also ramped up attacks on insurgents’ locations as part of ongoing operations to destroy the terrorists’ capabilities before the insurgents could deploy them against the land forces and other targets. THISDAY gathered that the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) has also encircled major likely escape routes of Boko Haram commanders into Chad, Cameroon and Niger. Other channels through which they move arms have also been occupied by MNJTF troops. There were speculations at the weekend that the dragnet spurn around the terrorists, in addition to the Chadian expedition that decimated hundreds of insurgents, have now put pressure on Shekau to allegedly seek amnesty. Shekau, in a video released last week, had admitted that he lost many fighters during the invasion of his enclave by the Chadian troops but called on his fighters not to be discouraged by the losses. But unconfirmed report said he had reached out to an unnamed NGO that provides humanitarian services in the North-east to explore a surrender option in return for amnesty. Responding to a question at a briefing at the weekend on the arrest and trial of 58 terrorists by Chad in contradistinction with Nigeria’s policy of amnesty for repentant terrorists, Coordinator, Directorate of Defence Media Operations, Major General John Enenche, said it was dependent on the policies of each country. “If they (Chad) don’t know how to go about amnesty, they should ask. There’s a convention that if your enemy surrenders, you take him as prisoner of war. It’s an international convention”, he said. Addressing troops in Borno ahead of the final onslaught against the insurgents, Buratai urged them to show commitment in order to end the war. “We must be committed and fastidious. We must consider and work out the minutest details, factors and all possible outcomes in all our operations,” he stated. He urged the commanders to focus on the image and integrity of the Nigerian Army. “We must think out of the box and beyond the box. I charge you all to move out and bring this war to a positive end! Victory is from God alone,” he had said. 1 Like |

kabe1:They asked for 500 Million to upgrade, are you sane? Facebook started operating recently and it is already pulling in billions and you want us to give people that have been operating for years and still have no single capital to show for it, we should give them 500 million to handle. The best thing the Nigerian government can do is to scrap NTA and start up a new framework NTA cannot work again even if you put in Billions. That petty statement of yours however has dealt a fundamental blow to your entire venture of propaganda today, the video is now just a product of a poorly managed media outlet riddled with corruption. 1 Like |

kabe1:Highly inefficient and noisy garbage. can you see the way the things always lean like an old magic school bus when it is turning, this is a death trap and it should be decommissioned. We appreciate the fact that the Nigerian defense structure is trying to look inwards, but we should not look inwards and place the lives of good men at risk. This is a huge moving target, that moves slowly, is poorly armed to defend itself and is too stiff for real life battle scenarios. The best we can get out of this is to use it for a mobile kitchen and save the lives of so many good men. 1 Like |

kabe1:Then in 2010 when I started following Beegeagles blog I thought that by 2020 Nigeria would be fielding up to 6 squadrons of 3rd to 4th Generation Jet fighters. But here I am in 2020 10 years later trying to convince my mind to celebrate the procurement of 12 turboprops. We have failed in ways that failure cannot even comprehend. Note: I wish we had a single shred of descent jet fighter in our fleet before buying these absurdities I wouldn't have complained. 2 Likes |
