Nigerian Army launches artillery bombardments of Boko Haram fighters in Konduga LGAn Borno State.
Field Artillery troops of Operation Hadin Kai bombarded a mass gathering of Boko Haram fighters at Dawuri village in the Konduga. Intelligence report revealed the terrorists were planning to execute coordinated attacks around Maiduguri and its environ.
Nigerian Army launched massive artillery bombardment on their camps. The pre-emptive strike carried out after obtaining intelligence on the movement of the fighters and the interception of their communication by army intelligence.
That the army was able to intercept their communication and devilish plans to attack Maiduguri and its environ is commendable. This is warfare in the 5th Dimension. Their cowardly evil plot of attacking innocent defenceless civilians were thwarted by rocket artillery bombardment.
A rocket artillery is a weapon of choice in this scenario because it is capable of delivering a large mass of explosives simultaneously, increasing the shock effect and giving the target less time to take cover.
In this case Field Artillery troops bombarded the general area, giving the mass gathering of the terrorists. Giving them no hope of escape. Killing at least 40 of them instantly.
The Nigerian army employs two classes of multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS), the BM-21 Grad
....the more modern longer range RM-70. The RM-70 is an unforgiving weapon.
Its warhead is an airburst fragmentation warhead that explodes about 30 feet over a target area to disperse solid metal penetrating projectiles to destroy enemy soldiers, just like a grenade does.

K-13 short range air to air missile. NATO code named AA-2 Atoll.
The K-13 is a semi-active radar and Infrared homing air to air missile. Analogus the M-21 and F-7Ni fighter. Its similar in appearance and capability to the American AIM 9 missile. Some say the technology was by the Soviets via espionage. Who knows.
The K-13 has a 13 kg high explosive bursting charge warhead that creates a cloud of sharp debris. It features a proximity fuse operates from a distance of 15 m from the target.
An open letter written from the Malian Economic Minister Tiécoro Diakite, to Nigeria's President Buhari WARNING Nigeria about the real goals and objectives of France in Africa. If only we listened.
Dear Mr. President!
The majority of Africans greeted your election to the Supreme post of Nigeria. The Federation of Nigeria, the largest truly independent African country is a matter of pride and dignity for Africans.
Your predecessor had relegated Nigeria to the level
of Francophone African countries under neo-colonialist French rule, with such domination tools as the French army and the CFA franc currency used in franco-Africa guaranteed by the French treasury.
Months ago, we touched on plots by France to maintain its grip on francophone West Africa by engineering conflicts and stoking political crises in francophone states. The leaders of some these states are marked for assassination, or to be forced out of power in palace coups.
The only way for Paris to justify its military presence in West Africa is to be the man that sets his neighbours house on fire and arrive with a fire truck to help.
President Buhari has played hosts to more francophone heads of states in one month, than he did in all of 2020.
April 19 2021: Nigers new President, Mohammed Bazoun pays a state visit to President Buhari, 48 hours after survuving a palace coup barely 24 hours upon resuming office. In a closed door meeting that had Nigeria's defence chief present, both leaders talked about forging close
So its been two days of researching, and investigating the cause of the latest Israeli Palentiniian conflict, and i dont like my findings. There will be no exposition on this one. It will be too provocative. All i can touch on is the weapons both sides are using on each other.
Hamas Strategic Rocket Forces are on a scale that dwarves the arsenal of most African militaries. Hamas spends $100 million a year on military infrastructure. These guys dont play around.
They have rockets like the A-120 with a maximum range from to 120 km.
Cameroon's military has a historic fear of Nigerian artillery. A force capable of laying waste to enemy territory by the acre.
On August 19 2020, Nigerian army artillery in conjunction with Cameroon air force surveillance crushed ISWAP terrorists in the Lake Chad.
ISWAP fighters were observed in Fedondoya village around Tumbunli on the fringes of Lake Chad trying to make their way into Cameroon, by a Cameroonian ISR plane. A Cessna 208B to be exact, and subsequently requested Nigerian artillery interdiction.
The Cameroonian airforce provided surveillance and observations from their ISR platform? while Nigerian Field Artillery troops bombarded the terrorists.
Its Leahs Sharibus 18th birthday today. She was 14 when she was abducted by ISWAP. She is fierce. A fighter. The girl who defied one of the deadliest terrorist group in the world. Four years on, she is still in captivity.
She is in essence has become a symbol of strenght for women. One would think the government do whatever it takes ti secure the release of such a female icon.
Sheikh Gumi..advocate for blanket Amnesty for bandits. Remember Leah Sharibu. Your "diplomatic" skill will come in handy.
