I think the mods should stop moving threads that claims to v pictures but without pictures to the holy front page.

who says GEJ is clueless?he has removed the possibility of a coup occuring by keeping our military very busy,...we now see our army making drones,APC,armored cars,bullet proofs,assualt riffles,they are even also involved in renovating infastructures like the ikeja police colllege,.....GOOD IDEA FROM GEJ,...KEEP THEM BUSY

U guys should b fast wit d manufacturin...... I nid a dozen of d amoured car 4 my poultry business, transporting eggs and young chicks.

vislabraye: I can't judge yet until I see the performance of the vehicle.
Building an armoured vehicle is different from armourizing a vehicle. There are so many things that entail building a vehicle.

Seconded. This looks like an "assembling point" to me, that shud be the right phrase not "manufacturing", Armoured Personnel Carriers are not plastic toys, it requires lots of manpower, time and resources to build.

jaryeh: It amazes me when I see Nigerians condemn locally made goods.

God bless Nigeria.

is only an enslave soul by foreign things will condemn local made

cashkid_is_back: dont get me wrong oga,i did nt say dt those technical skuls ar buildin armoured cars bt dt,those cars in dt pix luks like d ones bein fabricated in technical skuls as skul projects.wic means dt d cars in dt pix doesn't luk like d real armoured cars bein used in d military

please shut your mouth! Cretin......

Good start if its all made in nigeria but I doubt.

lovat: During the days of the civil war, Biafran Scientist used scrap metals to build APCs, I belive FG should go to its archives and get the manuals they confiscated from biafra and use it to build a worthy APCs but they need to give due recognition to d gallant biafran scientist.

are u serious? So people get time to build armoured vehicles during the war? Tell me something

L.M Ayedun..:
As interest in armoured luxury cars rises among the upper class, some Nigerian auto firms have intensified research work on the armouring technology.

Already, an indigenous automobile manufacturer, Proforce Limited, has commenced the production of Armoured Personnel Carriers.

Proforce said it had sealed a pact with Defence Industries Corporation and some para-military organisations for the production.

The Minister of Aviation, Ms. Stella Oduah, is currently facing criticism for allegedly forcing the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority to buy two armoured cars for her.

Wealthy Nigerians and top public office holders import a number of armoured vehicles.

The Managing Director, Proforce, Mr. Ade Ogundeyin, said in a statement obtained on Friday that his firm was currently working with the Defence Industries on the APCs, just as he stressed it was equipped to armour other categories of vehicles.

He criticised the idea of importing armoured vehicles, saying it did not make economic sense for Nigerians to continue to import what was available locally.

“There is no need for government or anybody to import bulletproof or armoured vehicles. It is a waste of resources.

“Why import at very high cost when there is capacity to produce better vehicles at comparatively lower prices locally? This is an issue I hope the new auto policy will address.”

Ogundeyin said the armouring materials were resistant to AK-47 gunshots and assaults with improvised explosive devices, stressing that the vehicles would run on special flat tyres that could endure several kilometres of journey even when deflated.

The Proforce boss also expressed support for the recently developed auto plan, describing it as one of the best policies of the President Goodluck Jonathan administration.

He said if fully implemented, the document was capable of boosting industrial activities in the sector and contributing towards the achievement of government’s targets for the economy by 2020.

He aligned with the thrusts of the new auto policy, which were to encourage investment, enhance technological development and revive production activities in the industry.

Ogundeyin said, “This is a laudable plan which is capable of transforming the local industry. The impact will be felt in many ways, including the establishment of many small- and medium-scale support industries, job creation and increase in capacity utilisation.

“But a lot will depend on whether government has the will to fully implement the policy, especially the area that concerns their agencies or departments buying locally made vehicles. Another critical area that requires firm action on the side of government is the one that introduces stiffer tariff structure for fully built imported vehicles.”

old news na...they've been iaround since 2010

ordinary car we never produce finish, na armoured car we be begin produce? person way never day waka wan run

sonickay: Seconded. This looks like an "assembling point" to me, that shud be the right phrase not "manufacturing", Armoured Personnel Carriers are not plastic toys, it requires lots of manpower, time and resources to build.

There's a thin line between assemblying and manufacturing especially in the automobile industry.
Most car production factories owned by car manufacturing giants like toyota and co are 'assemblying plants'.

NigerianAsshole: ordinary car we never produce finish, na armoured car we be begin produce? person way never day waka wan run

If you want to see the manufacture of ordinary cars,go to Nnewi in anambra state and ask for innoson.

For a vehicle to survive an IED it has to have a v shaped hull to deflect the blast away for the occupants. I would like to see a video of them testing it with ak 47 and IED blast. Seriously, is this what we need? This vehicle is of no benefit to 99 percent of Nigerians. The rich won't even buy it, it's made in Nigeria.

I comment my RESERVE on this
