samomoli: Insecurity is not a one day thing , you guys keep making this costly mistake as if it's easy to just get all the terrorists at once , Israel that is better equipped than Nigeria has been trying to subdue gaza since 2 years ago They are stil on it , war is very costly bro Nigeria can't afford it . Personally I like the fact BAT is not sending the north , you cannot expect us to keep funding Your laxity with southern funds it's not possible, let the north keep killing and bombing themselves when they are tired they know what to do to end it . 2 Likes |

samomoli: Which would have been one of the best decisions the government ever made. That ₦15T budgeted for the coastal highway can build times two of any security fence in the entire Nigeria border perimeter. Nigeria border perimeter is just 4,047km and at a cost of ₦2m per/meter of security border fence, that is capable of giving us 10,000km stretch. Having in mind that the coastal region and some part won't need this fence which means where this fence is needed should be around 2,500 - 3,000km of Nigeria border perimeter. |

IslamVIRGINS: You're right, they're all critical. But in of border security though, the North East must be given a higher priority due to the influx and outflow of bandits and terrorists. Northern borders in general are just too porous. |

Sensiblerealist: Yea, but that doesn't mean they will now go to the border and start breaking the concrete walls down lol... Ontop wetin bro? 😂😂😂 Don't forget that the immigration also patrols and such borders would be extremely tall with solar CCTV cameras monitoring it day and night. Person wey go break border wall because of iron rod go fit break hospital and bank na... E no easy like that o. |

Please no. This is not efficient. You are looking at construction, maintenance etc.

nedzuby: is it my criticism that preventing nigeria from making progress? meanwhile, the technologies you showed in the screenshot, can you tell me where they are already in use by the nigerian government? what is the length of the border between Borno and Cameroon? |

Kemetian:. Won't work in this 21st century those terrorists now have explosives and sophisticated drones that can easily blow open the fence. |

lexy2014: ![]() 1,2, Modern cameras hidden on walls, employ AI. Its what Israel is using in Rafah crossing. They see anyone going in or out. 3. Its job is to give instant notification of breaches. 4. Shouldn't they? Which modern army isn't? 5. The problem have always been, these terrorists can sneak in and sneak out unmonitored. Even smugglers and fugitives from the law. A wall will constrain them greatly. 6. The distance cannot be policed humanly. You need wall and tech assistance like every other decent country. 7. The Iron curtain Russia built in East Europe, was across 5 countries. Its only the part going thru Berlin, dat people know as the Berlin wall. Nigeria is a tiny country. Iran is much bigger, yet they have a wall separating them from Afghanistan. Stop joking. 8. You underestimate Boko Haram. You don't understand what you are dealing with. Their pattern is guerrilla warfare. They cannot faceoff with a fully mobilized military. But the military can not always be fully mobilized. Thats why you mobilize to build a defensive wall. 9. Try and understand the nuances of guerrilla warfare first. 2 Likes |

cyberbro: You want bandits and terrorists to kill labourers or workers fencing these areas or you want them to be kidnapped while carrying out this project? |
HydraFeeds(m): 11:40am On Jun 05 |
Kemetian: According to documents from Benin ,the wall was not created initially for protection against invaders but to prevent Benin people from migrating to neighbouring kingdoms and empires . |
cyberbro(m): 11:40am On Jun 05 |
IslamVIRGINS: Such constructions are done my military engineers, if need be they'll add other workers (civilians), but under heavy security protection... But of course, it's still risky... |

Krismas: off point. "So many childish questions" and yet you could not answer any of the "childish questions". 1. did I ask you about Israel or Rafah? I asked which AI? 2. I asked you to share with "the plan", you are talking about Rafah crossing. how does Rafah crossing answer my question: can you share with me the plan of the AI to be used to alert the authorities when the wall is breached not "bridged"? 3. don't you know the meaning of the word "prevent"? will the AI prevent the wall for being breached? simple yes or no 4. in how many operations are the nigerian military presently using AI? 5. I didnt ask you about "the problem that has always been". I asked youwhat will be the response time of the authorities to the point of breach? 6. did I ask you if the distance can be policed humanly? I asked what is the length of the border between Borno and Cameroon? 7. can you show me where I asked you about Iron curtain and Iran? my question was how many masons does the military have that they will be able to build a fence of such distance? 8. are the masons bullet proof or are they not the from the same military that cannot fight boko haram? simple yes or no 9. did I ask you for "nuance" or asked if there is "heavy security" to cover masons while building the wall, why has that "heavy security" not dealt with the insecurity once and for all? |

Fencing won't stop the problem...use technologies, stop depending on old school military training of staying inside the sun and doing march es ... Thank God Ukraine has deployed Swarm Technology..Swarm Technology is quite cheaper than a Tank , when you notice terrorist, just deploy and program them to strike anyone with a gun, the precision is 100% accurate, it doesn't miss it's targets ...You need thinking minds in the Army , we asked you people to deploy cluster bombs you na no gree, that enough is enough to put deep fears in their mind. You also need to spend a lot of money on research and development, not the chewing gum type of research they do in the University that don't birth products but theory. I am sure there is a way to manipulate the air around a zone to prevent projectiles from going through that zone

Krismas: and yet you could not answer one of the "repititive, dull and daft questions" instead you are getting emotional? did I ask you if I am relevant or not? let us try again: 1. did I ask you about Israel or Rafah? I asked which AI? 2. I asked you to share with "the plan", you are talking about Rafah crossing. how does Rafah crossing answer my question: can you share with me the plan of the AI to be used to alert the authorities when the wall is breached not "bridged"? 3. don't you know the meaning of the word "prevent"? will the AI prevent the wall for being breached? simple yes or no 4. in how many operations are the nigerian military presently using AI? 5.

Busy76:I've been stating this same thing for years now because in reality, Nigeria has NEVER had standard borders with those 4 countries. Even the British Colonialists never thought of building border walls or fences. Folks just simply walk right into another environment from the Nigerian side and find themselves in another country without any checks and this has been fueling the illegal inflows of foreign Fulani herdsmen and bandits into Nigeria since the early 2000s and the Jihadist invaders from the West African Sahelian countries of Mali, Niger, Chad, Burkina Faso, Northern Cameroon, etc. First off, the use of stabilized laterite bricks OR adobe bricks for the construction of the border walls will be cheaper since laterite is readily available BUT this time, it will be stabilized with cement. Second, prisoners from Nigerian correctional centers closer to the border areas can be deployed to those locations to build the border walls and save costs of labor. Third, the U.S. border walls along the Mexican/U.S. border areas can ALSO be used as a model to measure total costs. In any event, it's the use of modern satellite tracking systems and advanced attack and surveillance drones that would further complement these proposed border walls which I'm in of and to hell with the ECOWAS protocol on free movement that allows foreign Fulani herdsmen to just walk right into Nigeria and displace indigenous Nigerian ethnic groups from their lands for final occupation using violence. It's totally unacceptable as the Fulanis in the whole of West African countries are just a minority ethnic group of NOT more than 24 million people (unlike the over 80 million each of both Hausas and Yorubas, then the Kanuris, and other indigenous Nigerians combined), so they should NOT be placed on a pedestal by ANYBODY from Nigeria again. The Fula paternal ancestry is even from the Berbers of Morocco in North Africa based off of advanced DNA test results we have today. All Fulanis have Umayyad Berber ancestry and NOT indigenous to Nigeria. Period. |
