The Nigerian Chief Of Defense Staff has revealed why the military have not carried out an aerial bombardment of Boko Haram Leader, Abubakar Shekau’s hideout.

Army Reveals Why Shekau Hasn't Been Forcefully Captured
Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau
According to the Nation, troops have not stormed Shekau’s hideout because the sect is using the Chibok girls as shield.

Chief of Defence Staff, Air Marshal Alex Badeh, on Wednesday visited Chad to seek clarifications on some issues and map out plans with multi-national force on what a source described as the final onslaught against Boko Haram.

The military source, who spoke in confidence with The Nation, said Shekau and some members of his Shura Committee – the sect’s highest policy making body had been shuttling between Sambisa Forest and strategic locations, such as Gwoza and Bama.

The Chadian President, Idris Deby said Shekau’s convoy was sighted in Dikwa on Tuesday. But the military source explained that Shekau has a strong base in Gwoza with a special armoured tank.

The source said: “Troops have located what I may call Shekau’s bunker but they cannot strike because some of the Chibok girls are being used as shield by the leaders of Boko Haram.

“We want to do a clinical job with limited damage because the whole world is awaiting the safe return of the Chibok girls


“ The ability of the troops to rescue some of the girls will earn more credit to the success of Nigerian military against the insurgents.


“We are also being extremely careful to avoid any military assault which may force Shekau to turn against the Chibok girls and other hostages in Boko Haram’s camps in the Northeast.

According to the source, intelligence report has indicated that recent bombings in Jos and other cities were borne out of anger against the military for reclaiming over 40 occupied territories and killing more than 300 insurgents.”

Air Marshal Badeh on Wednesday met with the Chadian military hierarchy.

A source, who spoke in confidence, said: “ The session was used to iron out alleged claims by Chadian military that Nigerian troops were frustrating its collaborating troops in the Northeast.

“At the meeting, the Chadian military denied issuing such statement. Instead, it restated its commitment to collaboration with Nigeria to rout out the insurgents from the Northeast and the sub-region.

“After ironing out the misgivings, the CDS and Chadian counterpart later mapped out plans with the multi-national force on the final onslaught against Boko Haram.

“We are likely to see enhanced synergy between Nigerian troops and their Chadian counterparts in the next few days.”

Remember their initial urban terr.or campaign?

Thank you for your concern. grin They will first be degraded of their fighting ability and not be able to establish any coherent strategy and with improved Intel get their kingpins.

You may not know this, but they are a cross border organisation, but willnot now be able to do this. The ideology will die way over time like the previous ones.

Meanwhile, the world of media sells stories to each other with organisations such as Reuters, Sapa and others selling stories. Journalistic integrity requires that you stand by the stories that you buy and publish.

Per your post, Nigerians don't have the journalistic integrity. Like blind bats they just publish without thought and they can be challenged on the grounds that they did not originate the stories.

No one else in the world can be challenged on that basis.

Do you knows how many reports on theNigerian insurgency we have seen and laughed at because of their inaccuracies? No they wouldn't have the resources if BH had focused on Chad , they would have crumbled a long time ago. They are only making progress because BH are being engaged by the NA on multiple fronts and have been degraded by months of bombardment and SF attacks that go unreported.

Unless you understand the concerted effort to discredit Nigeria from various sources and interested parties, you will continue to be misled. But we know.

Nothing but the truth. Nigeria's sorties are flown by mercenaries just like during yesteryears in Biafra.

There are many reports that Nigerian air force has now been outsourced to SA mercenaries. They are the ones who do the bombings not Nigerian pilots.

What rubbish. Mercs were used in Biafra because new platforms were delivered in months without the time to train pilots. NAF have plenty of pilots that have been training in Eastern Europe for a long time and we are a already familiar with the platforms.

Let's run with your merc scenario. If they exist, they would be advisers and also flying their own helics with pintle mounted guns.

Ex-SA soldiers 'playing major role in fight against Boko Haram


[b]Cape Town – Former South African Defence Force soldiers are reportedly playing a major role in the fight against Boko Haram extremists in Nigeria after they were hired by the west African country.

According to the Institute for Security Studies(ISS) several ex-South African Air Force (SAAF) pilots were also participating in the war against the Islamist insurgents.The report said the South African team together with other military experts from Britain, United States and France had contributed significantly to the recent successes of the Lake Chad Basin Commission forces against Boko Haram.

"The former SADF members are definitely playing a major role in this offensive. They have been in country for a significant time already, involved in training some specialised NDF [Nigerian Defence Forces] units," a former military intelligence was quoted as saying.

Beeld reported in January that the former SA soldiers were to form the core of a multinational team of private military experts to fight Boko Haram.The report, at the time, said that the 100-strong team had been tasked with training the Nigerian military in a massive campaign against the terrorist organisation.

This came after a Nigerian presidential security adviser stated that Nigeria's campaign against Boko Haram was being hampered by "cowards" within the armed forces, signalling dissatisfaction with how the military is handling the situation.  But Defence Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakuladismissed the so called former SADF soldiers as mercenaries and said that they should be arrested when they return home.

"The police have a responsibility to ensure that, when they come back, those people are arrested and the [National Prosecutions Authority] has a responsibility to charge them. There are consequences for going out of the country and provide any form of military assistance as a mercenary, not as part of the deployment by government," Mapisa-Ngqakula was quoted as saying.

Abuja has reportedly insisted that the deal had been cleared with President Jacob Zuma – and the ex-SADF soldiers now in Nigeria have likewise also insisted that their involvement was cleared at the highest echelons of the South African government, even if the defence minister did not know about it.[/b]

I never got into this discussion before. Just find it interesting that more details seem to be coming out.

You guys should make up your minds. First it is thecChadians doing all the fighting, now it is ex SADF mercs. So are they doing it with the Chadians?

Nigerian sent nearly 2,000 SFs to Russia for training and a significant number of them are involved in SF operations against BH.

We knew it was only a matter of time before everybody starts to claim credit for what the NA is doing after they all abandoned her and refused her equipment. Very shameful glory seekers.

Chad made such an undeniable and unprecedented progress that Nigerian forces has never achieved in their war against terror.

It was never reported because it was against the grain. The difference now is, more sophisticated equipment with night fighting capability were delivered by our friends in the East,hence the difference. Plus, it took months to plan this current offensive and you think Chad has the know how to take on thousands of BH fighters in multiple locations over a wide area?

[size=16]CHAD BEAT UP THE DOG WITH STICKS AND BRICKS AND THE DOG CRIED UNTIL THE OWNER CAME OUT TO PLEAD ON ITS BEHALF. THIS IS A CLEAR PROOF THAT JONATHAN'S GOVERNMENT IS FULLY BEHIND BOKO HARAM. IT IS USED AS A POLITICAL AGENDA AND A CASH COW TO EXTRACT MONEY FROM THE GOVERNMENT. WHY DID THEY STOP CHAD FROM FLUSHING OUT TERRORISTS IN NIGERIA?

THERE ARE ELEMENTS WITHIN THE CABINET OF JONATHAN WHO ARE IN SUPPORT OF BOKO HARAM AND WHO KNOW WELL THAT NIGERIAN MILITARY IS JUST A LIMPING GIANT THAT CANT DEFEAT BOKO HARAM. NOW, THEY WERE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT HOW CHAD WAS SUCCEEDING IN DEMOLISHING THEIR ONLY HOPE TO GRAB ONTO POWER. SOMETHING NEEDED TO BE DONE AND THAT WAS TO STOP CHAD. THOSE WHO MADE THAT DECISION MUST BE INVESTIGATED. THE REAL LEADER OF BOKO HARAM IS WITHIN THE CABINET AND MUST COME OUT, PRES IDRISS HAS ORDERED.
[/size]

You are becoming more deranged as time goes by. Do you think if Nigeria stooped the engagements going on now and turn their full attention on Chad they will be anywhere near ? Fo*OK

Little do you know that a lot of the commanders and foot soldiers of book haram iin the border regions are Chadians as well as Nigeriens.

This Idriss that you love, wasn't he the one that tried or trick Nigeria into a seizefire by guaranteeing BH surrender?

They are only now interested because their economy is affected after Nigeria's clampdown and are trying to claim unwarranted glory for a 2 town success when we have cleared 34out of 36 communities.
Don't worry your low IQs, the truth is coming out.
