Air Force Expecting Delivery Of 55 Helicopters By December (see List) by Bukayosakes: 5:29am On Oct 31, 2022
Coming this December.

Yesterday the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Isiaka Amao, announced that the NAF is expected to take delivery of 55 fighter helicopters by December 2022. This includes

An unspecified number of AW109 Trekker multi-role light twin engine helicopter.

This is the most powerful air fleet ever assembled by an African nation South of the Sahara. More remarkable is the fact that Nigeria is technically broke. We barely just made it out of a recession. Meanwhile between 2010 and 2015 Nigeria made more money from the sale of crude

than at any time in our history, with oil prices hovering over $100 per barel, translating to almost $300 billion in annual revenue compared to barely $60 billion today. Can you imagine where we will be today if this level of investment was made on the military back then?

As Nigeria basked in a financial nirvana the best we could do was aquire a handful of second hand T-72 tanks via 3rd party from the Czech Republic without spare parts. Annual defence budget was then was close to $5 billion, with a supplementary $1 billion set aside for munition.

The only thing I expected of PMB was to weed out corruption frop the upper echelon. Dude failed.

With corruption and sabotage still looming, all those hardwares are paper boats and corruption, the river.

Parting gift for Buharì and his co-looters to share.

Meanwhile, 1 US dollar is now 800 naira.

The last time buhari was head of state, a dollar was not even up to a naira.

A VERY USELESS STUPĪD CORRUPT COW

Buhari has tried in this regard. If not for leadership failure, Nigeria will be using all this money for more important things.

This is what happens when you have idiots as leaders. The people they have refused to empower and educate have become criminals, terrorists and bandits.

Now, instead of using all this money for developing infrastructure and human capital, it's being used to acquire aircraft for fighting and killing people Nigeria's idiotic leaders have failed.
