Why can't we build our own warships and military equipment? I thought we were the giant of Africa.

SeanDada1:
US govt plz gives us cobra helicopters to level up boko haram in 2weeks.

bushdoc9919:


Sigh.

In addition to the Boko problem....we have a sea piracy problem...and an illegal oil bunkering problem. Millions of dollars worth of oil is still being stolen every year. So.....Boko is not the only problem we have!

Hence the warship.

bushdoc9919:


Buying ten of those cobras would eat up our defence budget....leaving little for salaries,etc.

Also, if you buy millitary hardware.....you also have to get trained to use said Army hardware.

dhantey324:


Point of correction, he is an ex-ethnic militant leaer (abi Yar'adua no grant am amnesty?) And also NIMASA has claimed the receipt of the six ships...

DaBullIT:

The level of stewpidity being displayed by e-nigerians is alarming , I know that cluelessness spreads especially if you worship , obey / listen to lies from clueless at the top , what I didn't know is that it became an airborne infection

Muurfuckas here said USA did not care about Nigeria , Instead of saying thank you for the gesture , I'm reading comments like " they should sweep for bugs"." I do not trust USA " . " Tompolo buying tear rubber , Nigerian Navy collecting scraps ".

When will that mentality change ? USA sent soldiers , offered to help Nigeria , gives incentives and grants and then again you still say US is Nigeria's enemy. Correct your evil dark thoughts , stop reasoning like a Nigerian , start thinking like a human being



Some Mùmú people argued with me a few months ago that the USA does not care about Nigeria ,

They blamed USA for Nigeria's woes and even for GEJ's clueless ness

USA just proved you wrong again , but some of the comments are so disappointing





. I doubt that the joint army staff will be having thier meetings in that ship , i also doubt that the ship will be docked / anchored at Aso Vila , bugs in the ship is useless , you reasoned with your yansh

. The same thing you and other clueless people said when USA brought their soldiers and offered to help against boko haram , In reality stop reasoning like a baboon


. Stop thinking like a Nigerian , start thinking like a human being

. I know you don't like Clueless administration , I added your quote because you said tompolo bought tear nylon , in reality he didn't buy tear nylon , he bought decommissioned / considered old or outdated for use in Norway and I bet the instruction manual is not in English

Nigeria is on the verge of economic collapse , you were gifted a ship at this perilous time and this is how you think ? Shame on you



Soldiers dismissed and sentenced to death ? You don't know if those soldiers are the saboteurs , people don't just get dismissed , killed or sentenced to death , there's something else and NA is not telling us

ILRNZH:


Nna think am na...

, the navy spent about 8.5 million dollars in refurbishing the vessel and emplacing its armaments

Must GEJ government refurbish everything? Train, Warship, FFK....

Chrylich: $8.5million to refurbish??! O_o

How much con be new one!

We don suffer!

IGBOSON1:
They should give it a clean-sweep for bugs!

Ilekeh:
Donated and equipped with spying wires abi?

Nigerians are not smart people.

You ever wonder why USA DONATES such equipment to undeveloped countries?

podosci:

Where in the world are EX militants who rose up against the state, killed military personal and civilians allowed to come close to owning weapons, talk more of warships?

Rich4god:
Okpabana... What a name...
*edited*

I like the way NN names their ships... Using "words" from different Nigerian languages. Sound interesting...
NNS Aradu comes to mind.

daramz1:
I hope its not a fairly used war ship ooo

Jenams:
we begged them to sell cobra helicopters for us to fight boko haram dat is killin innocent nigerians on a daily basis BUT they refused, so where is the love/good from usa u r talkin abt?

Ilekeh:


You're really dumb and naive, aren't you? USA really cares about you, you say?

Nigga moments.
