Military Gists

The Minister of Defence visited the facility of EPAIL in Lagos, where he observed the production of armored vehicles, including a licensed version of the CSK-131 Mengshi. The visit was part of the Minister's working trip to Lagos.

The Nigerian MRAPs being produced by Proforce in Ogun State and DICON in Kaduna are a testament to the country's growing military capabilities.

Brief about Gudunbali/Gudumbali/Gudunbalayi 1.

Must be one of the bloodiest if not the bloodiest of operation.

The wave of capturing Baga is still blowing and the joy in the faces of not the Soldiers alone but the whole of Maiduguri, Nigeria and even A*o rock at large.

Other operations are still on but we never knew that of Gudunbali will come that soon.

Here comes the day and Abu-Ali won't be going with us, but the battle that led to the recapture of Tungushe, Gajigana, Nganzi, Ngezai, Gajiram, Mile 90, Kekeno down to Monguno and Baga is still very much intact and we are ready to do justice.

Come rain, come sun the Military still remain Military, whenever the clarion call our faith is one and ever to the federal republic of Nigeria.

Where's there's war, there comes victory and casualty.

Now the address, from the commander Sec 3.

If you know Gen Sarham you will understand why the Military is the toughest organisation you will ever find yourself 😁

Task was to go recapture Damasak and nit even Gudunbali. Moved from Baga to Garin Giwa down to Kuros, Kukawa.

I think Kukawa/LC axis should be the richest areas around Borno alongside Sambisa and Abadam, don't want to go into details.

Three days advance, we are already short of log, the foot Soldiers are already exhausted which is understandable.

That terrain during harmattan where you can drink 10 sachet of water within 1 hour is not a child's play.

We arrived Gudunbali where we saw water and the Soldiers tood advantage to refresh so movement can commence.

The cjtf members are already ahead, where they harboured too.

Because we met little or nothing there, and whenever you're going fir any advance and you arrive there without any resistance, prepare for the worse.

We rather fight and fight recapture the ground than going there without any fight.

Few minutes, i sighted some movement from afar communicated with the leading T72, within few seconds the cjtf members were already running back.

Within few seconds day turn night, convoy was like a General moving, with all MRAPS.

Now this is proper war a d we shall fight it out till mamas call, we ratehe die here than retreat, we have no other country than Nigeria.

Day turned night and sky turned red within few seconds.

That moment I realized it will be fight till mamas call, but but.

After some time, I noticed T72 isn't launching anymore, then you should know there's little problem.

And after about an hour, jet came and I just say they saved so many souls, I have never seen such gun duel not until Gwoza and Sambisa advance.

Second and third was still bloody.

Things we go through for the peace of our dear nation.

JUST IN: An illegal petroleum refinery, with an estimated capacity of over one million liters, have been destroyed by operatives of the Nigerian Navy Ship (NNS) Pathfinder within the coastal regions of Degema Local Government Area in Rivers State. Information available indicates that the individuals involved in this illegal activity managed to evade arrest when they observed the approach of the naval forces via gunboats.

The storage tanks were subsequently destroyed through the utilization of a specialized swamp buggy, while technicians effectively disabled the illicit hose used in the process.

Exciting news! The Nigerian Air Force just got 2 Diamond-62 aircraft purchased by the FG. These aircraft will greatly enhance NAF's counter-terrorism and counter-insurgency efforts. The CAS Air Marshal Hasan Abubakar is in Ilorin Kwara State to personally receive them. 🛩️🇳🇬🎉

Nigerian Air Force Commandos engaging in the KRAV MAGA technique, an Israeli martial art of unarmed combat during training by Israeli FourTroop PMCs.

Krav Maga is known for its focus on real-world situations & its extreme efficiency hence it's the best drill for Special Forces.

Remember coming back from one of our SF training, our first operation immediately we landed Maiduguri was straight to Damboa where 195bn were under serious attack, reaching Damboa after some deadly gun dwels infact that BN was almost dead and bury before we entered. Exchanging fire for hours when everywhere became calm I noticed there are only two people who gave the whole BN covering fire for those who are out of ammo to escape.

The one man in front of all things was this man, I jumped down from my gun and begged someone to take a picture of me and him, unfortunately I was not able to get hold of the picture till date, when the BN returned everyone was shouting Commando and praising him including the CO who was later killed too Lt Col Shonva.

Keep resting in peace warriors.

Prices we pay to protect the peace of our fatherland.
