President Buhari Speaks On Insecurity In Nigeria; Appeals For Patience

We are working very hard to ensure the security situation in every part of Nigeria improves very soon. As part of our efforts, we are investing heavily in acquiring modern equipment. Some have arrived, some are being cleared at the Ports, and we have others still on their way.

Our government is doing its best on the question of equipment, and the military know. We understand the importance of properly equipping our personnel, so that they can deliver their best.

I ask for some patience with the acquisition of equipment, especially with the impact of Covid-19 on global supply chains. And then when the equipment arrive, we need to train personnel for their usage, ahead of deployment to the field.

I want all Nigerians to rest assured that we are doing our very best in this regard. You will see substantial improvements very soon. Security of the lives and property of all Nigerian people will continue to be a priority for us.

Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR,
President,
Federal Republic of Nigeria.

COUNTER-INSURGENCY: NAF SET TO DEPLOY AIR ASSETS, SPECIAL FORCES TO GOMBE STATE

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) is set to deploy air assets as well as NAF Regiment and Special Forces (SF) personnel to Gombe State in the North East Zone of the Country to beef up already existing security arrangements in the fight against insurgency and other related crimes in the State and Zone. This was made known today, 11 August 2020, by the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubarkar, while playing host to the Executive Governor of Gombe State, His Excellency (Alhaji) Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, at Headquarters NAF Abuja.

Speaking during the visit, the CAS noted that the NAF, in conjunction with sister Services and other security agencies, would continue to work tirelessly, round the clock, to secure the North East and defend Nigeria’s territorial integrity whilst ensuring the Nation’s sovereignty is not undermined by any group of individuals. He appreciated the laudable gesture of the Gombe State Government in providing 230 Hectares of Land to the NAF for the establishment of a Forward Operating Base (FOB) which, he said, clearly showed the Governor’s commitment towards ensuring that the good people of Gombe State and indeed the entire North East are secured. The CAS remarked that the NAF had flown an unprecedented 26,200 operational hours in the Counter-Insurgency operations in the North East, all to ensure the protection of the people and enable them pursue their legitimate aspirations without fear. Air Marshal Abubakar further reiterated that Nigeria was destined for greatness and no individual or group of individuals would be allowed to undermine its destiny.

Speaking further, the CAS noted that, since 2015, the NAF had significantly increased its presence in the North East to meet national security imperatives. “We now have the Headquarters of the Special Operations Command as well as a Reference Hospital and the 201 Composite Group located in Bauchi. We will also soon flag-off the construction of an aircraft hangar in Bauchi to enhance aircraft maintenance activities within the North East Theatre. Apart from Bauchi State, we have also established a small unit in Damaturu, Yobe State to allow us have a wider reach for our air operations. In Taraba State, we have a Quick Response Wing that is located in Gembu, an area that has suffered from farmers/herders clashes, which started about 2 years ago. The Unit, which is made up of NAF Regiment and SF personnel, has been adding value to the security situation in that general area. From what I have said, you can see that we are virtually everywhere in the North East. We recently emplaced a standard aircraft hangar in Maiduguri to improve aircraft maintenance capability. So, Your Excellency, we are highly committed to ensuring that our people are secured, because we believe, just like you mentioned, that without security there cannot be development”, he added. Air Marshal Abubakar also informed the Governor that a NAF Team would return to Gombe in the next few days to commence work on the emplacement of the necessary preliminary infrastructure for the take-off of the FOB. He noted that, as customary, the NAF would, in the long run, establish medical facilities and schools at the Base in Gombe.

Earlier in his remarks, Governor Yahaya commended the CAS for the bold step taken to establish the NAF FOB in Gombe State. He also thanked the CAS for the NAF's consistent support and contributions towards securing the lives and properties of Nigerians in the North Eastern States. He emphasized that Gombe’s central location would be an advantage in enhancing the NAF’s operations in the North East. He noted however that the State shares borders with Cameroon, Chad and Niger Republic, which, he said, makes it vulnerable to a range of security threats. According to him, “Gombe State is blessed with Solid Minerals, Oil and Gas, and other natural resources. This has given rise to influx of people into the State which calls for more security concern. These resources cannot be harnessed until the lives and properties of the people of Gombe State are well secured.” He assured the CAS, that the State Government would provide necessary support for the smooth take-off of the FOB as well as ensure that the personnel that would be deployed to Gombe State are adequately taken care of.

Before departing HQ NAF, Governor Yahaya was led by the CAS to the NAF Memorial Arcade to pay his respects to aircrew who had paid the supreme price in the course of duty.

Also present during the courtesy visit were the Senator representing Gombe North, Distinguished Senator Sa'idu Ahmed Alkali, as well as some senior Gombe State Government officials and Principal Staff Officers of the NAF Headquarters.

Security: Zulum meets Naval, Air force Chiefs in Abuja

As a part of his series of engagements schedule for his ongoing official visit to Abuja, Borno Governor, Babagana Umara Zulum on Tuesday met with Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Ibok Ekwe Ibas as well as the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Baba Abubakar.

The separate meetings, held at Air Force and Naval headquarters in Abuja, discussed security issues in Borno State.

At the Naval headquarters, Zulum's first point of call, the governor had a closed door meeting with the Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Ibas.

Late in open session, Zulum made case for the deployment of more Naval personnel to Borno. He described the Nigerian Navy as critical component of operations in the shores of the lake Chad.

The Governor commended the Naval personnel for their efforts in the counter insurgency operations in the northeast.

Responding to the Naval Chiefs request, Zulum indicated Government's readiness to rehabilitate the road linking Baga to the lake Chad shores, for easy movement of security operatives and the returning communities.

While at the Airforce headquarters, Zulum was full of praise to Airforce Chief, stressing that the force's base in Maiduguri has responded to all the intelligence information he has shared with them.

Responding, Air Vice Marshal Sadique Baba Abubakar reiterated their commitment to the fight against the insurgency in Borno State.

Air Marshall Sadique conducted the governor around the surveillance unit of the Airforce headquarters.

GOVERNOR ZULUM COMMENDS NAF’s CONSISTENT RESPONSIVENESS IN COUNTER INSURGENCY OPERATIONS, AS CAS ASSURES OF MORE SUPPORT FOR DECISIVE DEFEAT OF INSURGENTS

The Executive Governor of Borno State, His Excellency, Professor Babagana Umara Zulum, has commended the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) for consistent responsiveness in its counter-insurgency operations in Borno State and the entire North East of the Country. He said the commitment and dedication of the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, as well as officers, airmen and airwomen of the NAF had curtailed the activities of the insurgents and limited their scope of operations. Governor Zulum disclosed this today, 11 August 2020, when he visited the CAS at Headquarters NAF Abuja.

Speaking further the Borno State Governor, while commending the NAF for its consistent contributions towards the restoration of lasting peace to Borno State and other States in the North East, equally appreciated the Service for regularly providing airlift support to the State Government. He equally commended the NAF’s laudable humanitarian interventions in the State, including its numerous medical outreaches and the Level 2 Hospitals established by the Service at the Bama and Dalori Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) Camps, which provide free, qualitative healthcare services to the IDPs. While highlighting the need for political solutions to address the root causes of the insurgency, which, he said, included poverty, illiteracy and unemployment, amongst others, the Governor noted that there was urgent need to ensure the return of IDPs to their homes in a safe and dignified manner.

Governor Zulum further noted that, while the State had suffered a number of attacks in the past 2 years or so, over 90 per cent of these had been successfully repelled through the robust, timely actions of the Air Task Force (ATF) of Operation LAFIYA DOLE. He therefore commended the ATF for its consistent speedy response. “Whenever I receive any report of an attack or crisis in any location, I immediately call the ATF Commander and within a few minutes, the NAF aircraft are usually airborne to deal with the issue”, he added. The Governor said Borno State and indeed the entire Nation would therefore continually remain indebted to the efforts of the NAF under the current leadership. He however solicited for sustained joint air and land offensive against specific areas within the Lake Chad and Sambisa Forest areas, observing specifically that the Lake Chad was, at a time, responsible for employment of over 10 Million people. He said there was need to ensure a return of normalcy to the area in order for the people to reap the socio-economic benefits of the Lake.

In his response, the CAS noted that the NAF, in collaboration with sister Services and other security agencies, would continue to work tirelessly to ensure the security of the people of Borno State and the entire North East. He assured the Governor that the Armed Forces of Nigeria and other security agencies would not allow any individual or groups to undermine the Nation’s territorial integrity or sovereignty. Air Marshal Abubakar noted that the ability of the Service to carry out its constitutional roles had continued to be boosted by the provision of adequate resources by the Federal Government. He noted that the NAF, with the support of the Federal Government, had acquired 22 brand new aircraft and was expecting another 17 manned aircraft, while 10 Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles (UCAVs) had also been procured and would be deployed for various operations to cover the vast 705,000 square kilometres area of the North East, North West and North Central States.

Speaking further, the CAS disclosed that, since 2015, the NAF had significantly scaled up its presence in the North East to meet national security imperatives. He highlighted that the Service now has the Special Operations Command as well as a Reference Hospital and the 201 Composite Group located in Bauchi. He stated that the NAF had equally established a small unit in Damaturu, Yobe State to enhance the reach of its air operations. Similarly, the CAS said a Quick Response Wing, made up of NAF Regiment and SF personnel, had been established in Gembu, Taraba State to deal with the issue of farmers/herders clashes, which broke out in the area about 2 years ago. He also disclosed that, while the NAF had emplaced an aircraft maintenance hangar in Maiduguri to improve maintenance capability for aircraft deployed in the North East Theatre, the Service was also on the verge of establishing a new Forward Operating Base (FOB) in Gombe State. Air Marshal Abubakar concluded his remarks by assuring the Governor that, with the increased presence of the NAF in all the States of the North East as well as the deployment of additional air assets, insurgency and other forms of insecurity would soon be stamped out.

Before departing HQ NAF, Governor Zulum was led by the CAS to the NAF Memorial Arcade to pay his respects to aircrew who had paid the supreme price in the line of duty. Also present at the visit were some senior Borno State Government officials and Principal Staff Officers of the NAF Headquarters.

Assorted Armoured vehicles. Them gather am plenty of which they don't make use of it especially now that they have a pact with the Israelis...

You know there are some equipments that are essentially obsolete and no longer fit for purpose.

Jordan has a lot of historical armoured vehicles.

They have over a 1000 M113 APC from the 1960's and a quite a few hundred Chieftain MBT's. The Chieftain is better than the Mk3 Vickers that we have. If l recall correctly there were huge problems with the reliability of the diesel engines. The M113 isn't what we need, it's slow and not mobile and tracked and it's mine protection is close to nonexistent.

My suspicion is we may also get the S. African Ratel which they have in considerable numbers. Another relic from the 1970's. Nonetheless, very
effective in insurgents attrition warfare and are a 1000 times better than our Toyota gun trucks.

If we could get 500 Ratels particularly the larger troops carrying IFV it would change compleote the dynamics on the battlefield.

It is better in my opinion than a BTR80.

I don't know why we just don't come off our high horse and giant of Africa posturing and go straight to SA. Ask for assistance and get as much equipment for pennies that we need.

If l know this l am sure the NA top brass should as well. The Ratel is very rugged, reliable with its German Man diesel engine, with a range of over a 1000km. I am almost certain the fire control system has been updated, and if it hasn't it's not difficult to do. So it should have precision weaponry night and day. There are a number of variants 20mm, 90mm., etc

If we were to ask nicely we might get a donation from the SA. If you look at the news clip below you can see that 354 were sold for R1.1 million that's essentially nothing.

They donated 500+ Similar trucks to Uganda a lot of them are armoured and are quasi MRAP'S. Much better than riding in the back of a low loader and or big yellow dumpster.
