The ISWAP fighters went away with some aid workers who refused to came out of their houses, they gave children money to show them NGOs workers houses , they assembled them all together, the Amir who lead the attack was speaking in French with his translator who speaks kanuri.The Amir who later ask if the people will follow them, some accept to follow them while others refuse, the refusal of some aid workers made the Amir to go away with some. Some of the confirm aid workers that where taken info still sketchy as no official report for their missing. https:///mE3jYmE20f 1 Like |

But this same soldiers will gallantly shoot at unarmed protesters without provocation abi and we even deny they did it cause of the cowards they are Thank God for the social media. Most of the nonsense they do talk about achieving in Sierra Leone and Liberia will be fake sef. We saw their performance in Mali.

MAIDEN OPERATIONAL VISIT: CAS INSPECTS ONGOING
PROJECTS IN KAINJI, GOMBE SAYS LOCATIONS READY TO
RECEIVE SUPER TUCANO, UAVs ON SCHEDULE
The Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Vice Marshal (AVM)
Oladayo Amao, has commended the pace of work on
ongoing infrastructural development projects at the 407 Air
Combat Training Group (407 ACTG), Nigerian Air Force
(NAF) Base Kainji, Niger State, which are being emplaced to
accommodate the 12 x A-29 Super Tucano aircraft when
they arrive Nigeria. The CAS equally expressed some
degree of satisfaction with the progress of work on ongoing
projects at the 109 Combat Reconnaissance Group (109
CRG, formerly known as 203 CRG) NAF Gombe, which is to
serve as the Base for the Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles
(UCAVs) ordered by the Federal Government from China.
AVM Amao made these known today, 3 March 2021, while
on his maiden operational visit to the NAF Bases in Kainji
and Gombe.
Speaking after the inspection/assessment tour of projects
in Kainji, which include the ongoing construction of 3 blocks
of 10 single-bedroom Single Officers’ Quarters (SOQ), one
block of 6 x three-bedroom Married Officers’ Quarters
(MOQ) as well as a block of 30 x single-bedroom Transit
Accommodation for Non-Commissioned Officers (NCOs),
AVM Amao expressed delight at the commendable pace of
work. The CAS, who also inspected work on the arming
bays, apron and other projects being executed by
contractors assigned by the United States Government,
stated that it was very clear that all was being done to
ensure that virtually all the infrastructure required to
accommodate the Super Tucano aircraft would be in place
prior to their arrival by the middle of 2021.
Before departing Kainji, the CAS held an interactive session
with the officers, airmen and airwomen, where he urged
them to remain disciplined and unwavering in their
commitment to duty. He also advised them to always be
security conscious whilst contributing their quota towards
ensuring that the NAF ‘enhances and sustains critical
airpower capabilities required for joint force employment in
pursuit of national security imperatives. The CAS also
entertained questions and received feedback as well as
suggestions from the personnel on how to move the
Service forward for more effective and efficient service
delivery.
In Gombe, the CAS was received on arrival by the Deputy
Governor of the State, Dr Manasseh Daniel Jatau, and the
Secretary to the State Government, Professor Ibrahim
Abubakar Njodi, amongst other State Government Officials;
after which he proceeded to inspect ongoing infrastructural
development at 109 CRG, including the Taxiways, Apron,
Aircraft Shelters, Bulk Fuel Installation (BFI), Ammunition
Dump, Access Roads as well as Office and Residential
Accommodations.
Speaking after the inspection of the facilities, the CAS, while
thanking the Gombe State Government for not only
allocating the 230 Hectares and providing other forms of
support towards the speedy establishment of 109 CRG,
noted that much still needed to be done to make the Base
ready to receive the UCAVs, which he said would soon be
arriving the Country. He remarked that, aside the currently
completed and other ongoing projects, there was need for
the NAF and Gombe State Government to jointly work
towards connecting the Base to the national grid whilst
also commencing work on the construction of the access
road to the Base.
In his remarks, the Gombe State Deputy Governor, Dr
Manasseh Jatau, expressed extreme delight at the speed
at which the NAF was developing facilities at NAF Base
Gombe, remarking that it was nothing short of
extraordinary. He equally expressed appreciation to the
NAF for the medical outreach conducted for host
communities in the Akko-Gona Emirate area of the State in
October 2020, barely 2 months after the establishment and
groundbreaking ceremony of the NAF Unit. He noted that
the outreach benefitted members of the affected
communities immensely and pledged that the State
Government, on its part, would continue to do its best to
support the NAF towards the ultimate goal of improving
security in the State and indeed the entire North East.
The CAS, who was accompanied on the visit by some
Branch Chiefs and Directors from Headquarters NAF, has
returned to Abuja.

ABUJA, Nigeria – The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
recently established a permanent presence on the ground
in Africa to oversee key U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM)
projects here.
Europe District manages construction in both Europe and
Africa and recently relocated a project engineer to Nigeria
on a permanent basis to primarily support the
construction of new facilities for the A-29 Super Tucano
wing at Kainji Airbase.
Project Engineer Adewale Adelakun began setting up his
office in November 2020 and is now fully in place.
“To be there on the continent is a huge step forward in
order to deliver high quality construction to our
stakeholders,” Adelakun said.
While Europe District has supported AFRICOM missions
on the continent for years, this move to establish a
permanent presence is an important step as the
mission’s support and partnership with the Nigerian
military grows and includes AFRICOM’s work to promote
regional security, stability and prosperity.
“We recognize the growing significance our work in Africa
has on achieving our national security goals,” said Brig.
Gen. Thomas Tickner, USACE North Atlantic Division
Commander. “Having a permanent presence on the
continent allows us to better leverage our capabilities to
support AFRICOM's and the State Department's desired
objectives by building partner capacity and sustaining
host nation relationships.”
Now with the consolidation of U.S. Army Europe and U.S.
Army Africa into one command, the placement of a
Europe District employee in Africa is more important than
ever.
“Not only will this move benefit our A-29 project in
Nigeria, but it will facilitate efforts on dozens of smaller
military and humanitarian projects like schools, clinics,
training ranges and more that we deliver to our partners
on the continent,” said Europe District Commander Col.
Patrick Dagon.
Now stationed in Nigeria, Adelakun directly supports the
A-29 Super Tucano project, delivering a light attack,
combat and reconnaissance aircraft storage facility for
the Nigerian Air Force (NAF). The project consists of a
$36.1 million contract for facilities to support a dozen
A-29 aircraft. The work involves the construction of a
new airfield hot cargo pad, perimeter and security
fencing, munitions assembly and storage, small arms
storage, a flight annex wing building for simulator
training, airfield lights, and various airfield apron, parking,
hangar and entry control point enhancements.
The A-29 project is one of several Europe District has in
Africa. While Adelakun is a “forward-deployed” member
of the A-29 Project Delivery Team, he is part of a lager
Europe District team that oversees construction in Africa
in support of various other strategic initiatives, including
Humanitarian Assistance, Foreign Military Sales, Counter
Narcotics and Trafficking, Building Partnership Capacity,
Global Peacekeeping Operations Initiative and more.
Current projects under construction within these
programs include new primary and secondary schools in
Niger, Senegal Benin, Togo and the Nyanga Province that
will provide a safe educational environment for
thousands of children living in extremely remote areas.
Also included is a key boat ramp in Benin that will aid
Beninese authorities in the fight against illicit trafficking of
narcotics, and multiple vehicle maintenance facilities in
Senegal and Chad.
Overall, Europe District has nearly 20 active humanitarian
assistance construction projects Europe and Africa worth
more than $9 million in 10 different countries. Dozens
more similar projects are in the planning and scoping
phases. Turns out the US engineer posted here is a Nigerian |

JUST IN: Boko Haram Terrorists Free Borno Pastor Bulus On Expiration Of Seven-Deadline Given To Him.,,,,,,Yakuru was freed on Wednesday and was conveyed by operatives of the Department of State Services around 6.15pm today. The Boko Haram terrorists have freed Pastor Bulus Yikura who was abducted on December 24, 2020, and was given a seven-day deadline last week to be killed. Yakuru was freed on Wednesday and was conveyed by operatives of the Department of State Services around 6.15pm and sighted by a Premium Times reporter. On Wednesday, when he was asked to speak about his freedom, Mr Bulus kept repeating, “I thank God, I thank God.” SaharaReporters had on Sunday reported that the Chibok community in Borno State including residents, family and church members of the pastor contributed money as a ransom to meet Boko Haram factional leader, Abubakar Shekau, to secure the life of the pastor. Top elders in Chibok had confirmed to SaharaReporters that Pastor Bulus was married with three children, and his wife was depressed and desperately hoping her husband was not killed by the Boko Haram terrorists. Last Wednesday, the pastor had cried out from a video sent by the Boko Haram to President Muhammadu Buhari, the Borno State government, and the Christian Association of Nigeria from the terrorists’ den, begging that he had been given one week to live. Bulus had said he was in pain and would like to be reunited with his family members, church and relatives. The Boko Haram struck Pemi village in Borno, only about 20 kilometres from Chibok, on December 24, 2020, during which the pastor was taken away. A Chibok top community elder told SaharaReporters that some money had been raised by all of the stakeholders as a ransom, and they were planning to meet Shekau’s men to deliver it in exchange for Bulus' life. “Today is the last day I will have the opportunity to call on you in your capacity as my parents and relatives in the country. Anyone who has the intention should help and save me. Please release me from this pain,” Bulus had stated in the video released by Boko Haram last Wednesday.

One person has been killed in a clash between security operatives and some youths in Jangebe, Zamfara state. The youths were said to have staged a protest when Zamfara government officials came to the town to reunite the abducted schoolgirls with their parents. Suspected bandits had attacked the Government Girls Secondary School, Jangebe on February 26 and kidnapped 279 schoolgirls. The girls were later released after a few days in captivity. Residents who spoke with TheCable said the youths expressed their anger with the government and protested kidnappings and killings in the state. Violence broke out when the youths were prevented from getting through to the government officials. “The youths were very angry and wanted to show these to the officials so they can inform the governor,” one of the residents said. “Things got out of hand when one of the security agents shot at the youths. One of the youths died, and two others sustained injury.” SOURCE |

This thread has become a place for tragicomedy. My dear country Nigeria, I wonder when we will get things right. Lives are been lost every day and the ordinary man as a soldier is been used as fodder to sustain these fat pot bellied generals and politicians. The problem affecting the Nigerian military is systemic, it includes the whole nation. I expected that after many years of fighting an enemy, lessons are learnt and solutions proffered. If this was a serious country, the doctrine of the military would've been changed to fighting insurgency and relevant equipment provided, but no, no, no, na my country be dis, people dey cash out and they won't speak truth to authority. The foundation for this rot we are seeing was laid down from the middle 80's by past military and successive govts. The love for the military was not to serve but to be military govs and ADC's. Most of the command and general staff of the military since this insurgency started are of the 80's intake. We need a stop gap and it must be drastic for both the officer corps and the enlisted. 2 Likes 1 Share |
