ocelot2006: none... the aircrafts they were referring to were mostly transport aircrafts including the C130 which were ordered in 1981 but were delivered between 1984 and 1985 check the document attached http://armstrade.sipri.org/armstrade/page/trade_register.php 1 Like |

Not necessarily in terms of the figures, but that Buhari certainly purchased a lot more than a single rifle during his tenure.

Adminisher: Obviously you are not in tune to the fact that Naira lost a lot of parity with dollar during IBB and Abacha Regime. For a Military head of State to spend 20% on defence during coup turmoil is not out of place . Moreover no one pays cash in full for weapons. There is an element of financing. Before replying please google the buying power of Naira then and now also in 1983 population was about 40% what it is now. So the money had less to go. If you understand how per capita income is derived. |

eagleeye2: Read it properly. 12 Alpha Jets received in 1985. I knew because of the fact that deliveries for some of these stuff take time, that the imports chart for 84-85 might not necessarily mean it was Buhari that ordered all of them, some might have been by Shagari. But what it does settle is that Buhari did purchase defense equipment. And mind you this report is on aircraft alone. It says that Buhari's government was "committed to continuing the defence buildup planned by the previous administration. Many contracts have been renegotiated however, and options allowed to lapse. A reported 1984 reorder for 12 MiG-21s does not appear to have resulted in any deliveries so far... A second batch of 12 Alpha Jets was received in 1985, these aircraft being armed with gun pods for the attack role, replacing MiG-17Fs... Twelve AS.332 Super Pumas are believed to be on order, and some of the SA.330 Pumas may be returned to France in part payment..." The bolded clearly indicate activity during Buhari's regime. 3 Likes |

NavierStokes: If you were patient enough to read through, you would know that website is an international website which tracks countries' military expenditure, and adjusts for inflation to give the price at today's rates. Buhari spent 4 times GEJ in a third of the time. Anyway, I dont expect that website captures all of GEJS arms deals as his government have taken to buying arms Under-the-counter these days via unregistered flights to South Africa. 1 Like |

It is really pathetic that a lot of supposedly educated Nigerians cannot understand simple charts... Even in page 7 of this thread, some are still asking about '541 aircrafts.' Even if these guys are too dumb to interpret charts, several comments on this thread have clarified that it is $541m expenditure, yet we still have some people with iredeemably poor comprehension. Then again, some keep asking how come Nigeria could spend over $900million on defense on a N4billion budget.. Doubting even with all the glaring evidence presented so far on this thread and these individuals fail to realise that the Naira was almost equal to the dollar in the 80s. 1 Like |

Ngwakwe: Same way the crooked, corrupt and incompetent JonaDUMB in charge of the Nigerian military is still alive to dispute that fact that the Nigerian military received weapons purchased by Buhari. Shebi they are always quick to denounce everything so why is it taking forever this time around? After six years in office, the Nigerian military is still poorly equipped and badly demoralized, the incompetent man we gave a complete country to already lost portions of Nigeria. His service chiefs responsible for the loss after stealing $6 billion defense budget were rewarded with promotions and National awards... The nightmare is almost over #CHANGE#GMB2015 2 Likes |

aresa: 1. GEJ has not been in office for 6 years 2. GEJ and Buhari are members of NCS and have some security/classified information which public are not privy to. Now that GEJ has decided to bring it up for public debate. Let Repackaging machineries stay clear and allow them to speak for themselves. 3. Which nightmare, unfortunately your dream is the nightmare. GEJ is on course to winning the presidential election. May I remind you the words of Yakassai on 1983 Coup with special attention to the quote in red. In the book I was telling you about, they said Obasanjo told Umaru Shinkafi, that shortly after the election of 1979, some military officers went to him and informed him not to hand over to Shagari. Obasanjo told them that he had already told the world he was going to hand over power, and that he inherited the office, after a coup attempt that was not successful. He stated that his predecessor promised to hand over, and it means he must hand over. So forget about the noises as they didn't start today and wait till 2019 when Jonathan will be through with his transformation agenda 2 Likes |
