otokx: Could America have prevented them from buying arms from Russia? Yes actually. There are sanctions on Russia right now that disables her economy from selling arms. I stand to be corrected. 2 Likes |

Aphrygian: My fellow nairalanders pls I would always want us to always curse or resist all Jonathanians on social media blackmailing APC.am nt affliated to APC in any way,buh if with all this revelations we don't believe that APC is clean abt this insurgents then Nigeria is heading for the precipice.cos most of this TAN people have sold there soul to the devil Shut up, must you beg or cajole people to share the same ideology with you? And who told you the APC is not directly or indirectly responsible for the security challenges we are having? The reason why Nigeria is in this present state is because of people like you, who have sold their sense of reasoning because of a pot of porridge. PDP is not better, APC is not better and Nigerians are not better! We are all the same 4 Likes |

texaco1: This doesn't make any sense. There are countries and many arms dealers that will sell arms to nigeria without the approval of the americans. If this deal was between sa government and the fg,why do they need to pay in cash? A simple bank transfer would have prevented all these problems .why carry cash from nigeria is a private charter flight to sa without any single govt representative to purchase arms for nigeria and without even notifying the sa goovt of your arrival if truly they are waiting and expecting you Read again, the reasons are there. 1 Like |

zicoraads: Oh well...guess this is better than nothing. Sadly, they may have a point. The SA police got tipped by someone, an annonymous powerful someone. Reason it out well Bro. Nobody needs tip any info. SA is not as dumb as Nigeria. So you mean suitcases not labeled diplomatic cargo will just come into their country, and all the police, customs and other airport officials will just be looking at the passengers as they go through airport security without ascertaining its content.

This is what they called cover up.At the same time they are exposing their weaknesses.Blaming USA for their inability to purchase a legal harm,does that mean you should use a wrong way of purchase harm illegally while other countries like Russia is there to sell harm to you.you also use Pastor Oritsajafor the head of christain in nigeria to buy illegal harms shame on you people.But if the name of pastor oritsajafor has been Emir of kano or one notable islamic leaders I know you will not look for a cover up or if is one of APC memebers either christain or muslim,istantely you will relate the story with boko haram. 6 Likes |

Backlash to the failures of successful government! my stomach is boiling with unmentionable words for our government, what economy values do we get from purchase nd use of ammunition? it's really a pity that our govt over the years have failed woefully in provision of jobs, infrastructures and other social amenities with the huge money being spent now to purchase arms which could have been used positively to eradicate poverty and ignorance in the land. The govt is now requesting for $1bn to purchase arms nd ammunition in midst of poverty ravaged land!? to kill those they were expected to provide and care for, are they INSANE! ? millions of graduate can't find jobs and you're borrowing money to fight the monster you created, in the end large chunk of the money will end in private pockets $1bn = N160billion, (160,000,000,000Naira) can cause industrial revolution in Nigeria. what about resuscitating moribund companies all over the country? Our successful govts are irresponsible,corrupt, lack vision, lack foresight, clueless, self-centred, in fact they're irredeemably politically insane 8 Likes |
