Nigeria auto makers to supply jets fighting Boko Haram
Partnership with Nigerian Air Force is good for business amid wave of patriotism
(CNN)The grinding conflict between the Nigerian state and Boko Haram insurgents has exacted a devastating human and economic toll over the past six years.

But for Nigeria's first car manufacturer, the crisis may represent an opportunity.

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) recently announced a partnership deal with Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing (IVM), which will see the company supply spare parts for jets conducting airstrikes against the insurgents.
"The ingenious effort by IVM is instrumental to the continued operation of the Alpha Jets," NAF spokesperson Ayodele Famuyiwa said of the deal. "IVM helped to save the day when help was not forthcoming from abroad."

The offshoot company now employs over 7,000 people and has capacity to produce 10,000 cars a year. It is hoped that the partnership with NAF could help the business expand further.
"The attention is providing a big boost for the company," says Osigwe.
Innoson has gained several new clients since the deal, according to the spokesperson, including the National Assembly. Leading politicians such as Senator Ben Murray-Bruce have offered strong support.

A very welcome development.

This is welcome development o.

Lol fighter jet indeed

KingAzubuike:
There's a difference between production and assembling.

My watched it in the news around 2015 when Nigerian army held meeting with INNOSON for production of spare parts for Alpha Jets. University of Maiduguri is also doing same thing.

Fighter Jets ... you cannot even read what you wrote or copy

Hmmmm

Nigeria my country

Awesome!!!

This one NCDC hasn't sent me text message today, I hope they haven't broke up with me.

As long as quality is guaranteed no problem

KingAzubuike:
They say the Igbos focus less on education and are more inclined towards business yet they remain the most intelligent and inquisitive tribe in Nigeria. I wonder what technology in this country would have been without them. E no easy abeg.

always tribe tribe tribe. Why are you people like this.the chief of air staff is a Fulani man from bauchi but he decided to partner with an igbo Man without considering tribe, but some poverty enshrined human beings like you will be bringing tribe in everything they want to talk.

My brother leave matter for Mathias. Poverty is a very big disease.

Think You China

Yoruba operator you know in your heart what you are doing is evil. You know it's aircraft spare parts, why are you using headline "produces fighter jet" not mentioned any where in the CNN article? You are doing this on purpose to spite him. Your plan is to use another of your handle to attack the news as lie based off of your own lie with concocted headline. Why are you people like this yoruba? Biodun, why? SMH

The OP is the same person as "KingAzubuike", same person as "fjjc" and the same person also as "Miracle1991." KingAzubuike is a yoruba man not a woman. They create all these Igbo threads, use one of their handles to praise Igbos like "Igbo amaka." then use another handle to chastise Igbos, telling them you boast too much and this is why other tribes hate you. They do this to build hatred for Igbos among other tribes. Tomorrow as an Igbo man, you see that your Edo neighbor just angry with you for no reason...this thread is why, and that's what they afonjas aim to accomplished in poisoning their minds. Most Igbos and other tribes have zero clue what these people are doing.

Confusing post

KingAzubuike:
A very welcome development.

Am very sure you are not IGBO cos I've quite observe your comments for a while on this forum and you seems to always take Joy in constituting tribal fight between igbos and other tribes especially the YORUBAS..

Even your moniker portrays you as a Male but your sex says otherwise....

dont mind those miscreants that constitute nuisance everywhere online. They think they are the only Igbos. Meanwhile this is a stale news

Why can't the federal government send the palliative to everyone through bvn...

No one can say.. They have not received a text message from NCDC
