PMB addressing the RESCUED kankara kids

As usual. Misplaced talks and unnecessary straining of the jugular.

As for me, I maintain a stance that this should never have happened. All security forces (outside the Military) should be receiving a lot of demotions, forced retirements etc.

Alas, kudos! The FireBrigade got in just in time

PMB addressing the RESCUED kankara kids

Another close shave. Will we learn?

Toju200:
the Helo also has FLIR pods so the people that mounted the Search lights are fools abi.
Also with the kind of weapons the terrorists had it will be unable to bring down the helo.

remember it's a civilian bell 412. A direct burst of auto fire will likely crash that aircraft.

RESCUE OF ABDUCTED STUDENTS OF GSSS KANKARA, KATSINA STATE

[/b]Three hundred and forty four boys abducted from Government Science Secondary School (GSSS) Kankara, Katsina State on 11 December 2020 were safely returned to the Katsina State Government House this morning, escorted by a combined team of personnel from various security agencies with air cover provided by the Nigerian Air Force (NAF).

As from the early hours of 12 December 2020, the NAF deployed additional air assets, including additional Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft, to Katsina to provide persistent surveillance over identified areas of interest within Katsina and Zamfara States, whilst maintaining offensive air presence to deny the abductors freedom of action.[b]

NAF Medical personnel were also part of the Team that provided immediate medical care to the boys after their release from the forest, while additional NAF Special Forces personnel were also deployed to provide support

Yeap they denied them movement, food & water etc they had no option than to let the kids go, how will they carter for over 300 boys.
I hope we learn from these and do something urgent about this banditry/ kidnapping. Its really destroying the north !

https://defpost.com/nigerian-air-force-inducts-second-bell-412-helicopter-fleet/

It came from a civilian source. armoring on civil aircraft will only stop handguns. A direct automatic fire will penetrate it. ak rounds and machine gun cartridges are very powerful. they'll easily tear through.

From the pictures you have posted this is a Bell 412. If l remember correctly they were procured by the former Governor of River's state and then seized by then Jonathan federal government.

First of all l am sure you can clearly see there is absolutely no FLIR and or Thermal imaging camera and or pod on the helicopter.

Boko Haram have HMG on thier gun trucks a low flying noisy helicopter with a huge searchlight in the night is essentially sitting duck.

I admire once again your optimism but you cannot turn white to black.

"The two helicopters were handed over to the NAF on 27 January 2017 after they were seized on 7 November 2016 when the importer could not produce end user certificates. They were originally destined for Rivers State to protect oil and gas facilities and were equipped with night vision equipment, armour plating and cameras. They were supposed to bypass import duties. The new helicopter will be deployed to the Northeast as part of the efforts to strengthen the counterterrorism campaign against Boko Haram."

They were manufactured with armour plating.

You have a habit of arguing aimlessly, pointlessly without doing any basic research.

Is this FLIR not clear enough for you?

The Nigerian military did all in it's powers to deny the bandits any freedom of action.

They deserve to be commended for quick action, professionalism and bravery.

They all deserve medals for the actions taken to rescue these boys.

Helicopters with FLIR, Special Forces, ground troops, heavy weapons they deployed with speed!!!

This is by far more impressive than the rescue the Americans were praised all over for recently.

The Troops and commanders deserve more than just praise.

Komekn is hopeless. If the Bell helicopter were indeed sitting ducks, I'm sure they wouldn't have lasted this long in active combat deployments.

Xbee007:

He argues like there's a screw loose.

The Bell Helicopters can be armed with J6-C rocket pods, they have armour plating, they can fly and conduct ISR at night, they can be armed with 50 calibre machine guns.

How do you possibly arm them again, man!!!!


If this was an American led operation it would have been non-stop praise singing.

FoolaniBandit:
This picture is not recent but it tells us a lot about the rough play that is going on in the North. It's like smoking cigarettes in a petrol station, like sticking ones hand in a snakes hole.
Many people are ignorant, or would I say deliberately wants to ignore the imminent danger that this budding terrorism in the North West portends . So called security expert and analyst are also not sounding the alarm loud enough. What we have now is still dress rehearsal, by the time the bubble will finally burst, Boko Haram's insurgency will be like child's play

Bros, there is nothing wrong in seeking alternative measures to peace. What the Katsina Governor did is not wrong, we cannot bomb and kill everybody. Even American with the world's highest weapons cannot, that's way they are currently negotiating with the Taliban.

The Katsina Governor's approach has been previously tried successfully in Nigeria with the Niger-Delta militancy.

In Australia the government bought weapons from private individuals too.

Kinetic and Non-Kinetic approaches to peace work.

Former Hostage DSS Student who made video interviewed on Arise TV

Bandits were afraid of Jets / Helicopters Circling ahead.
Lack of Food ( No enabling Locals) They were fed once a day

He was told to say the ( Bandits) were BH
Based on what he experienced No they were not BH
Video cuts off.

They encircled them and denied them food and water and the kidnappers had no option than to let the boys go free...good analysis and script but how manage in all these, the kidnapper got away with no arrest in an open plane with 24 hrs eagle eyes from the military on them....? If you have ever been to Katsina and nearby state boundary it you would understand what I mean..just like I earlier comment...we all rub powder on each other and pretend all is fine...I just dey laff...!! Very good we analyse and speak english here trying to sound smart...but wetin dey happen dey happen...those in intelligence and on ground here know wetin dey go on and just dey laff too...!!


Note: Don't be surprise tomorrow they get some paid agents and tell them to pretend and claim to be the kidnappers been arrested...e no pass wetin go fit happen..!!

from the bolded you're essentially saying that your mind is already made and nothing else will make you believe otherwise

You will believe or choose not to believe whatever as long as it pushes your hate agenda

The boys have been freed and whatever means was used is justified

They might let them go on the condition of not hurting the kids. I believe the military operations are not through yet and there are a lot of things hidden that we can't know.

No problem, I seeing a lot of people saying ran some were paid and quoting a sum in dollars, while I'll not dispute or agree to this, the way I see it, the terrorist were cornered, their supplies were running out with no access to more suppliers(collaborators wouldn't have even dared to go near the location) if the boys had died of starvation, they certainly would have been next(eating leaves and drinking from stagnant ponds on day 3)! They should evade justice!

There are abductions in America. Why should Nigeria, an active warzone be different?

Security is everybody's business. Just so you know, our security agencies are not gods, they need the cooperation of every citizen to succeed.

We have too many criminally minded people in Nigeria, that's the biggest problem.

This country needs an urgent reorientation.

The fact is most of the people questioning the rescue of these boys are politically motivated.

They don't have the interest of the boys at heart, they just want an opportunity to blame the government in power.
