It's one thing to stop a car.
It's another to counter a bomb with a deadly blast radius which includes shrapnels and all.

Maybe in tandem with other devices, it would make for an effective counter measure.

Anyway why is that called a 'Robot'?

At leasst they are doing something I actually like this idea.

moderatorr:
Appreciate what? Aren't you ashamed of what our army is doing?

I don't know what is wrong with us in the country,can't we even appreciate a good thing.This is a landmark at least something is done,but some myopic people are still criticizing,oya go make your and bring gam make we use....

Jakumo:



Clearly you are enemies of frogress who have chosen not to appreciate and admire African Stealth Technology. You will both be invited for questioning over your blasphemous comments here, on Monday morning. Have your overnight bags and toothbrushes packed in anticipation of honoring this polite invitation that you will now be served by security operatives.

For your enlightenment, the high-tech device being unveiled by that proud military officer is a Mechanized Vehicle Interdiction Module, which has been developed by African witch-doctors and black-smiths, in collaboration with teams of muttering, white-coated scientists from MIT.

That device iron doesn't fit any of the definitions above. NA is a joke!

Criticize? dude are u high on something? There's no landmark here, just another mockery of our security apparatus.

Ha ha ha ha

Very soon the 9ja airforce will use A4 paper to make a paper plane and call it a "PROTOTYPE" F 16 bomber jet!

Ha ha ha! Comedians abound in this country o!

Most nigerians are stupid ingrate

OMG, thats definitely not a robot, its not even robotlike! Can that piece of iron sense an oncoming vehicle, can it respond on its own to stop it, can it move by itself, is it powered by electrical sensors,...dat stuff looks like a roadside welders job to me,(someting they refer to as angle iron).
Did they even demonstrate it practically to show its effectiveness...? It might actually work;dunno but its definitely not a robot.

robot kor, row butt ni

Kant stp laughng,robot ke? d funy tin is their proud lukng face as if they ve achieved smetin huge.

Am wholly dissappointed with this our military. So you mean they kept us in long wait only to see a piece of junk metal and they are proud to call it 'robot', gosh! Seems like we going into the Dark Age.

Is that the almighty anti-bomb robot? Comment reserve...

na share d moni we dey 3 metal piece joined 2gether without any form of ctrl as robot...security vote seems lyk a waste

Somebody tell me that this people are joking.... Is that piece of iron a robot? how much did it cost them?. Am going crazy

IT CAN NEVER BE WELL WITH NIGERIA! And hey, that is not a new curse, but it is a fundamental one.

How could all this possible so look down on 160 million people and come out with this piece of iron and call it robot? Do they think we are this d[i]u[/i]mb or what? Or are they the d[i]u[/i]mb ones here? In a country that has millions of foreign travellers? With over 20 million of her citizen living in advanced world? This is what you come out to present to them as a car-stopping-bomb-detecting "robot"? Damn... i weep for this country.

This is not even a bomb detecting device, it's just some random road-block pieces of iron wedded together. With first University in Africa, millions or graduates, millions of final year projects written and defended, billion of naira injected into the so-called Nigerian Army, is this all we can come up with to solve a menace as huge as Boko Haram?

Please, tell me how it could ever be well with Nigeria? Please...somebody

It looks like something any roadside fabricator can do.Which one is now stop and search robot?

i wonder o!how does such a gadget 'stop and search' nah?

.

WTF

Somebody help!
Lwfmh!
I'm laughing so hard that my driver is wondering what's happening on my screen.
I actually thought that the NDA is a millitary style university.
So these millitary chiefs with all their years at Sandhurst, et al are not ashamed to come to the public with welded angle bar and call it anti-bombing device?
Even Oshiomole boys that lay siege at the Benin by- pass has a better vehicle stopper than this.
This is definitely not worth celebrating, nay! Not by the Nigerian army!
