Also, you can see in all the pics floating online, from the uniforms, the African soldiers taking notes from American forces are from Uganda and Somalia. Military aid has been in Africa for sometime under AFRICOM to help train our military.
Now to the second issue; are there foreign troops in Nigeria? There are reports this morning that the Special Forces of the US Marines have sited the abducted Chibok Girls in Sambisa Forest...this report is hard to believe because the Pentagon, the UK and France made it clear that they are only providing intelligence service (intel & surveillance technology) to work with the Nigerian military..for now!
Also yesterday CNN said US intelligence made claims that the girls are not in a single location, so how come they've now been sited at Sambisa Forest? Even if US intelligence analysts were able to find the location, will they share the info with the media before the girls are rescued? So officially there are no foreign troops in Nigeria for now, except the foreign government is lying to the media about the kind of help they are providing and really sending troops.
hahahahaha. funny.
ReplyDeleteObviously,dis isn't d US camouflage uniform.
DeleteOut of all the bloggers in Nigeria, you are always the most sensible... You always feel the need to be sure before you post any info, and that is why I respect you so much..... Keep doing it like this, and you will top the game
Delete@zenki.how is this funny?maybe you don't understand what was posted.

That picture is of french troops capturing one of the leaders of a militia in central african republic. anyone who is familiar with international armies will see that the rifles used by the soldiers are Famas rifles which is the standard infantry rifle of the french army. the u.s standard infantry rifle is the m16.

ReplyDelete234 girls are missing and 234 is Nigeria’s country code…is there sum coincidence???
ReplyDeleteI have been pondering over this kidnap situation and something dont add up hence these questions.
The students are said to be SSS3 student writing physics examination.
QUESTIONS: 1. Why are their names not yet published by the school, state government and WAEC?
2.Why are their pictures not over the news media?
3. How come all 234 students are in SSS3 and all came to write physics examination when the total number of students in the whole school are
around 1200?
4. It was announced that the Borno states govt gave N1m each
to parents of the missing girls. If that’s true.
QUESTIONS: 1.Why was this
money given to these parents, was it as
compensation for the kidnaps or compensation for their deaths?
2. On Tuesday 29th April 2014, the
senator from Borno said in the senate that the girls had been taken out of the country to Chad, Niger and Cameroon and married off to their adoptors.
QUESTIONS: How come these senators know so much, who are their informants? Why is the wife of the state governor organising women to pressure FG in Abuja after the National Security Council has ordered the armed forces to use all state resources to secure
the release of the adopted Girls.
I just wonder how 200 girls can
be kidnapped at once. How come we havent seen those girls who they said have escaped on tv? If the Ss3 student aren’t up to 120 in a school of 1200, how is it possible 234 girls are missing?
Where are the school authorities? We haven’t seen any of them on tv.
WHO IS FOOLING WHO?
I need objective answers pls, its time all Nigerians start asking questions than drawing to conclusions
#nigeriagobeta. #letusthink
Another mumu! U wud av gotten answers to d silly questions u ar asking if uv been watching better stations and not NTA all d time.#shutup#
DeleteLinda it will be nice if u stop writting anything abt dis issue agn if u rili wnt them to capture bokoharam. Hvn't u watched how US captured Osama bin Ladin? No information was gvn out,nobody evn knew what was going on,evn Obama's wife,or journalists,just few committees setup by Obama to track down Osama bin ladin n his troops. So plsss it will be nice if u stop gvin out informations so dat dis people will carryout dia work effectively. And dat is why dey calling on all d protest to stop!!!
ReplyDeleteThank u 4 ds comment....And by d way, Linda, it is "sighted" not sited in ds context
Deletelinda for security reasons they must not let you know which card they want to play...US troop in nigeria or not ...they only know how they will play the game...my concern is MAy boko haram and thier financiers be crushed to the end..kpom kwem!
ReplyDeletetoh! na wa o
ReplyDeletetoh! na wa o
ReplyDeleteHmmm * deepbreath* the pic come dey fly like say na BH member be that...anyways Linda i think we have to believe wht the US Pentagon has said cuz our media houses have learnt how to fabricate stories. If they say there are no troops but experts, then that's wht it is....
ReplyDeleteWatched CNN last nyt where the father of one of the abducted gals was speaking about on how six of his family members, including sisters, nieces and children are amongst the "girls". He said they wrote to the govt who refused to help them until now that the pressure is on... The man also revealed that while they were on the rescue journey themselves, they witnessed an helicopter dropping stuffs in the BH camp...and when they asked, the villagers arnd revealed that such hapns thrice a week. Of course they had to turn back on their 'self futile mission'. Whts rele the faith this country???? *pensive*
Ok noted
ReplyDeleteLinda it doesn't matter who is going to sambisa forest,all we want is bring back our girls kawai.
ReplyDeleteSo many fake blogs in Naija carrying fake news. Thanks jare Linda sweeree for the info.
ReplyDelete...Hmmmmmmmmmmt
ReplyDeleteI'll prefer d media is not aware
ReplyDeleteAre u also aware that UK cantar-terrorism are on ground now with the US team.
ReplyDeleteMake they tell us oooo
ReplyDeleteY r so dumb linda...gosh..if na yeye celebrity story u go open ur eye wel,how can foreign govt lie wit such..wat will dey gain?mschew..u tink say na nigerian govt wey dey lie....rubbish..u just killed my respect for...
ReplyDeleteOhh I'm speechless I even see this same pic every where believing it's true but wtf
ReplyDeleteI saw d pix yestrday on twitter....wonder why we keep spreadin rumours. May God help us. Social Media no go kill us shaaaa
ReplyDeleteThat's because it will be interfering with their operations. Do u think boko haram don't read the news and blogs? They will obviously take action if they confirm the US troops are here. Did America announce to their citizens that they were going to capture Osama? Nope, it was announced after he was killed. Pls ooo, naija media, let's not give boko haram information that is useful to them or that can help them escape. Let's continue praying and just watch whoever/whatever units the US/UK sent take BH down. God help and bless Nigeria.
ReplyDeleteWhat do they mean for now ?? This is not the work if the army this is the work of intelligence agents which is what they are sending . And we don't want help from France . Thank you linda for releasing correct news
ReplyDeleteMetcheew, some of our armys are boko harm members,

ReplyDeleteLinda, really? Are u supposed to be asking us questions or trying to get information from us, or, shouldn't it be the other way round?
ReplyDeletePeople publish a lotta junk this days to attract readers.. + CNN are sometimes biased in their reporting; Aljazeera is more reliable!

ReplyDeleteRichard was here!
I saw dis particular pix on fb dis tin is gettin complicated I jes feel d dnt reveal their strategy stil good tho whichever hlp they wnt 2 offer 2 us wil b appreciated.
ReplyDeleteAll dis fake news,video sef tired person....they keep on posting fake articles just for traffic

ReplyDeleteAll this onyibo too mush biko they shud jus pls #BringBackOurGirls
ReplyDeleteThis picture have been floating the internet for the past few dayS and many people thought that was actually a boko haram..... How Come it was a time like this that false photos and stories spring up?#chEezyjayne
ReplyDeleteAll this onyibo too mush biko they shud jus pls #BringBackOurGirls
ReplyDeleteNaija, here we see the power of information to deliberately or not guide our thoughts and actions per time, our very consciousness is based on what we are fed constantly with and it could of course be cosistent with or dangerously contradict our present realities,much as we run with the available info due to our non apetite for intuitive and quality learning our journalists are then saddled with providing investigative journalism and making sure the populace trend with burning issues at hand, a good example would be Linda's efforts on the Aluu 4 issue, and recently the bring back our girlss issue, also a good example for the former would be displaying celebrity watches and clothes/cars when 200 or more girls were kidnapped the previous day and the populace are able to trend easily and convincingly with it, much as financial motivation cannot be ruled out of life actions, there is a clarion call to a few that would provide solutions to our national problems in times like these.
ReplyDeleteAre foreign troops in Nigeria ? Linda help us find out bcos we don't believe anybody any longer. I'm as confused as every other person bcos our govt hasn't declared their arrival.
ReplyDeleteNigerians are so full of mischief. Now they won't let the US carry out their job with all the fake news they publish and spread about. I don't understand why people who play pranks with sensitive security issues like this are not arrested and imprisoned.
ReplyDeleteSeriously..thus, making it very difficult to know what's going on.
DeleteI'm even tired and stressed over this issue. God's intervention!
I think everybody shud be mute bout this troops or no troops thing, the best approach to stuff like this is 'surprise n attack' talking bout it ll be revealing the strategies to those beasts
ReplyDeleteAnd if I May ask where is your own source from coz as at this morning CNN carried the news they have been cited
ReplyDeleteThat is Not Nigeria at all....look at the truck Plate number behind.
ReplyDeleteNigerians and their fake rumours shaaa! Hmmmn dier is God ooo! Chai.
ReplyDeleteDEBBIE_LUV SAYS SO
Dis pple shuld stop playing wit our heads biko.
ReplyDeleteLindaikeji na true o! American are here live. I live in Meduguri. They arrested 2 yesterday, and they'v located where the girls are in the forest. They r working here seriously. We r happy these will come an end soon
DeleteSo Many fake News about this Boko Haram and School Girls. Even the one of US Marines locating the girls. But it came from Vanguard. Hope its true this time.
ReplyDeleteLike for real sha,that pix got me wondering ooo... God Bless ya Linda for that observation jor
ReplyDeleteY are some pple out to be disgracing this country Nigeria.? False imformation every where. Lies every where. Fake stories every where, it is so shameful Biko.

ReplyDeleteUse your analytical minds...if d western claims non existence of its troops on ground its only Intel, what they want the media to believe....how come CIA is sure boko haram have ties with alqeada....a U.S marine could be disguised as an Intel officer....when Osama was captured, the Pakistan government knew nothing until the mission was over....besides our military & security agencies is infilterated already by boko haram & U think the American's will share vital Intel with them?...

ReplyDeleteDencia has not orderd d U.S. soldiers 2 come 2 Nigeria, so when she has, we shall know.
ReplyDeleteHope my comment is approved b4 or after visibility whoreva?
BILAL
Use your analytical mind people....when Osama was killed the American government in a statement said they didn't share Intel bout the mission with Pakistani government bcos their military is infilitrated by al-Qaeda...it is common knowledge boko haram already infilterated the government, military and security agencies already....and you expect them to share vital Intel about their troops? Or their mission? Don't be fooled a marine or navy seal officer could disguise as an Intel officer.....it is called under cover....what they want the media to know is what the media will know.
ReplyDeletePlease look at the number plate on the SUV to the right of the picture. That's not a Nigerian number plate.
ReplyDeleteBloggers r d problem..mislead the public.. They hv now become d journalist
ReplyDeleteWetin we dey take do ourslf for naija self no be small thing... We carry false rumours like they are bags of money
ReplyDeleteFor d siting of d girls at d sambasa forest d US didn't say dey sighted dem live but dey sighted dem thru dier satelite so right now dey r working on how to get these girls back safely
ReplyDeleteThats a big lie its all rumours no girls were sighted.
DeleteEven before Linda post this,i know its fake...How on earth would american troops be going to sambisa forest and posting their pics online for the public knowing fully BH uses internet as well, sounds no sense to me..Only Nigerian police would do that while going to a robbery scene,they will keep blowing their sirens such tht d robbers can flee the robbery scene before their arrival...
ReplyDeleteHaha
ReplyDeleteThat is in the Central African Republic. Those are French soldiers.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely not in Nigeria
ReplyDeleteYOU DEY ASK LINDA? I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WHERE INTO MEDIA?

ReplyDeletenot even the right figure of the rescued girls is given to the public. we don't know who to believe or what to believe anymore.i will keep saying that, the entire world is now alert and eagle eyes are on both the police and government. every report is being analysed. and my pen among other pens will always be mightier than the sword.
ReplyDelete...Madam Linda Ikeji is time ur credibility as a blogger remains paramount to ur cause,allowing ethnic bigots rubbishing leaders and calling Northerners idiots will not augur well 4 ur blog...The Hon.Minister of Women affairs has been on the forefront of the campaign to bring back our girls evident thru her media chats,press conferences and meetings with northeastern commissioners of women affairs on the return of these girls,she has even addressed protesting women on the grounds of the national assembly under heavy rain...as a mother herself with well educated daughters, she knows the place education plays in the life of a girl...Besides her chair as a UN women emancipator,she has travelled round the country advocating 4 child act bill,women and girls right to education in almost all the states' houses of assembly 4 proper legislative backing to this cause...If not 4 security reasons she had set herself severally to visit the Chibok region...Linda Ikeji should not allow her blog-spot be used as an easy means to heap insults on leaders by mediocre people...Pls we're all Nigerians,let's join forces and rescue these innocent girls and stop resorting to regionalising this heinous evil...thank U
ReplyDeleteLook at the license plate of the car behind. It is not Nigeria.
ReplyDeleteThis is a boko haram leader (they said 3rd in the hierarchie) which was cought by french soldier a the border area between Cameroon and Nigeria. This the reason for Boko Haram killing people in that region some days ago and bombing the bridge between both countries.
ReplyDeleteThis may be the reaspn why it Nigeroa is stated too.
These men belongs to the french army which located there since boko is lidnapping europeen people and bringing them too Naija.
