I'm new here, so I don't know much about Nigeria and its insurgencies, but in India, Indian government has a law that prevents Indian Armed Forces from being used for internal security duty except in special cases like Jammu and Kashmir.
And even in Jammu and Kashmir, they are not allowed to use any heavy weaponry like tanks, jets, attack helicopters, etc. Basically, Indian laws prevent usage of heavy Indian weapons against its own citizens no matter the situation, even if it is insurgency and seperatism.

Does Nigeria not have a similar law? Maybe that is the reason the Nigerian Air Force isn't participating in anti- insurgency operations?

since you are new, i don't know how to explain to you. the entire nation army been battling these insurgents for over 15years, they've killed thousands of soldiers, they've killed 100s of thousands to millions of civilians. They recruited Thier fighters outside and you are comparing it with Indian, if 1% of that happens in India, all the Indian army will participate in the operation

Arm chair air force officers on Nairaland have destroyed Boko Haram with one blow.

So what you are trying to tell me in 2025 is that the Nigerian Air Force has not been involved in battling insurgents, rather they just stored aircraft for display??

And their involvement any effective Cause insurgency still reigns. I heard some soldiers lost their lives yesterday to same insurgents.

Their parade should be show of shame.

Very unserious elements.

I hope we will not come and hear that they borrowed the aircraft o

It is not effective? After terrorists, bandits and their commanders have been killed, it's not effective? OK, stop talking, GO AND SHOW THEM HOW TO BE EFFECTIVE!

It seems you think that war is a Hollywood movie. How many troops did the US lose in Afghanistan and Iraq? That's the most powerful armed forces in the world!

War is not a tea party.

I will celebrate the officers and men that have made it possible for us to have this exchange without Boko Haram and bandits chasing us where we are sitting.

Rossikk:


That’s your low self-esteem talking.

If we set up a program to build fighter jets, we will build fighter jets.

It’s as simple as that.

It is always "if" or "will" isn't it?



Jokers

Kemetian:
Nice one.

But it’s high time we started parading Nigerian-built fighter jets.

If Pakistan and India can manufacture fighter jets, nothing stops us from doing the same and more.

you never manufacture toothpick na fighter jets you wan manufacture.

No bro, read my comments again, I'm not saying they are more intelligent nor less corrupt rather the are more discipline than us couple with their industrial high mindedness.

Hundreds of Boko Haram, ISWAP terrorists killed in Nigerian airstrike

The military operations were conducted when the terrorists were organising a meeting in a forest, says a Nigerian military expert.

The Nigerian air force killed more than 200 Boko Haram terrorists in an air raid with the Super Tucano light fighter jet in the Sambisa Forest in the northeastern state of Borno, a military expert has told Anadolu Agency.

There has been no official confirmation from the military but Zaga Zola Makama said on Friday no fewer than 200 Boko Haram and Daesh in West Africa Province (ISWAP) insurgents had been neutralised.

The jet was procured by the government to fight insurgents.

Top commanders neutralised

Makama said military operations were conducted when the terrorists were meeting in the forest and ISWAP top commanders were among those neutralised.

Makama said inadequate drugs and a lack of treatment for various injuries the terrorists sustained in the strike led to their demise.

Separately, local police has confirmed the arrests of at least 503 suspects on various charges of terrorism, rape and culpable homicide across the state.

State Police Commissioner Abdu Umar said the arrests were made between January and December.

They don't manufacture jets independently. It's in Pakistan manufactures in colab with China, India with Russia. Most of India advance fighters are from . And both countries invest heavily on military since they expect one day they will go all out on the battlefield. USA will not do collaboration with Nigeria, neither will or UK. And they will not want us to invite Russia or China.

"Show them" how?! Am I the commander in chief of the so called forces?

So Afghanistan and Iraq invade US and built camps there?
Chase their farmers aways, kidnapped and demand ransoms?

Don't be a Joker, bro.

naptu2:


It looks like comedians have decided to use this thread to test their jokes. They are pretending that they do not know that the Air Force has been battling insurgents.

The reason why the fight is still been fought in the forest and creeks is because the military are doing a good job.
I ed Yobe and Borno were no go area, even Fed govt refuse to send corp to those states.
I ed 1st Oct 2010, independence day bombing where terrorists bombed the road that the president was to take, and he was only about 1hr 30mins close to the vicinity.

It was that bad and people say the military is not fighting insurgency. Mtchew

You are the joker with all mouth and no action.

Obviously you have no idea of what you are talking about and no idea of the sacrifices that the officers and men are making and you have no idea of what they have achieved.

All you know how to do is talk tough online about what you cannot do.

Therefore engaging you is a total waste of time.

Goodbye, I won't read your posts anymore.

God bless Nigerian Air force, God bless Nigeria.

After everything na innocent citizens una go still bomb, while terrorists dey use soldiers do suya and bbq in the North

We have air force and kidnappers, terrorists and bandits are sleeping and resting in our forests, creating alternative societies there. Air force is a weak link in Nigeria.

But they can use it on civilians who are protesting 😲.

We don't really have military in this country, no no.

They were trained to fight armless civilians,

Bloody civilians as they said

Rossikk:


Same with the Nigerian military, or they would have wiped out the terrorists in 1 day.

They are restrained in how they can fight back, to avoid civilian casualties.

Millions of civilians?

Do you know what “million” means?

Name the state that has lost “millions” of civilians?

Go school, you no gree.

Thanks for the answers friends. Can you please tell me where I can read about Nigerian insurgency online to learn about it? I have just opened wikipedia, but I dont know if it is considered a reliable source for this conflict. Wiki has known to have biases... thanks in advance.

India does design and make its own fighter jets, starting right from raw material stage. Only in jet engine technology we are behind. But that doesn't mean we don't design and develop fighter jets independently.

Terrorist kingpin Ali Dogo, scores of fighters killed in military air strikes in Kaduna

11th October, 2022
By Sumaila Ogbaje

The Defence Headquarters says the Air Component of Operation Whirl Punch, has eliminated key terrorists’ leaders and score of their fighters in air strikes on their locations in Kaduna State.

The Director, Defence Media Operations, Maj.-Gen. Musa Danmadami, said this in a statement on Tuesday in Abuja.

Danmadami said that the air task force carried out an air strike at Yadi in Giwa Local Government Area of the state on Oct. 8 based on credible intelligence.

He said that the air strikes led to the killing of a terrorist kingpin, Ali Dogo, (AKA Yellow) alongside his fighters in a building they were said to be hosting a meeting.

According to him, Yellow and his fighters were said to have relocated to Kaduna State following continued bombardment on his location in Niger.

Danmadami said that the air component also bombarded a terrorists’ meeting location in the Northwest of Mando in Kaduna State on the same day, following intelligence that some terrorist leaders and their foot soldiers had converged under tree cover for meeting in the location.

He said that scores of terrorists’ leaders and foot soldiers were also neutralised in the air bombardment.

“The military high command commends troops of Operation Whirl Punch and encourages the general public to avail troops with credible and timely information on criminal activities,” he said.
