Even djibouti can boast of military hardwares, what you accomplish with your hardware is all that counts...And yes, for a country like Nigeria what we have here though a tad impressive is still some way off what is obtainable elsewhere...
zero military capability was used to highlight the magnitude of our problem... i see you guys are already doing what you did with the 'Virtually' empty treasury quote, spread half truths, twist logic etc all targeted at deceiving the not not so informed amongst us...

Noted, we are not there yet, but it must start somewhere, and that is what that past administration, the current PMB government need to follow-up where his predecessor stopped, not destroying all its effort at equipping the NA, NAF, NAF, NPF, DSS, and others. Thanks you

Boko Haram were melting back into the local community, that is/was the problem.

Locals were reluctant to identify the terrorists until it was too late.

The game changer before the election was the hiring of South African mercenaries and not necessarily the purchase of new arms.
GEJ had over four years to equip the military, why wait till six weeks before election?

Sometime one begin to wonder how we reason, The question is did GEJ government purchase this Jet or Not

Ok hold it bros. Those jets are Alpha jets and the NAF has had them like forever. Those weren't procured by the GEJ administration.

GEJ's government indeed procured some choppers for the NAF as stated by the former NSA. He also procured some tanks and such other hardware. The navy also got a look in with the delivery of 2 ships donated to us by the Americans. Then there were 2 or so locally built gunboats for the NN also.

Still far from desirable given Nigeria's global status...but definitely not "Zero"

Only people that don't know jack shite about the army would be mesmerized.

$2 billion was left and this is what you get?! Alpha jets and a bunch of MRAPS, tanks ?

Btw, some of the pics are unrelated to Nigeria.
Also those Ukranian tanks with the blue tarpaulin were never shipped to Nigeria cos they were converted for Ukranian use after their secession shite went down. Ask me if you want the video.

End of the day, this is far from impressive. I'll not deny Jo did a whole lot than the other governments involved but the acquisition was characterised by corrupt overpriced deals, so therefore we got less supplied for more money!

The only thing i learnt in this world is that you can't please everyone.
With what Barack Obama did for America he still has a lot of haters.

We knew how our military equipments were before Jonathan bought & sufficicated our war equipments.
How many did the last 3 presidents buy ??
Let's wait & see how many Buhari will buy.

Re: Re: Equipping Of Nigeria Army And Airforce by BlackBaron: 5:17pm On Aug 07, 2015
The crux of the matter was BH started blowing up the ceiling eons ago, Jonathan then embarked on a weapon spree beginning of 2015 prior to election (knowing he would lose) $2 billion got released and there was where the chaos set in.

So many dodgy deals left and right, including Arthur Eze trying to pay over the odds for a bunch of cobra choppers that Israel have now gifted to Jordan. Other invoices showed up the overpriced sums paid out for weapons which in a time of war is just insane. No reason Dasuki should go through third parties, we are not under embargo with anyone unless the Americans.

This whole kerfuffle was just majorly depressing seeing soldiers fighting and dying everyday while their ogas played 'roulette' with the money allocated for weapons or decided to jollificate with money for arms!

Step 1: Abolish secrecy in weapon acquisition - must be the only country in the world where they can maybe buy a submarine but only the army chiefs know how much they paid for it.
