Your crappy navy is actually most equipped arm of the military. Even with the crappy gun boats and WW2 ships, with zero destroyer and zero submarine.Atleast they bought a decent frigate from china recently with decent missile capability and can probably hold its own.
Nigeria has basically no modern air defence capability, no modern fighter jets, and a largely unprofessional army.
What a country . It could have been funny, but the fact that this was the same country that created the ogbunigwe from over 40 years ago makes it sad.
