We need to invest in building our own military with equipment made by ourselves! Did you know that China built Ghana's ministry of defense? We are still slaves and dependent.

And that is a national security threat for Nigeria? Geez, Y'all detest Ghana, but are quick to always site examples from there, why?

Dude the guy was giving example on how we African still depend on foreign power military hardware, that can be reveal to your enemy should war break out. (e.g france threatening Nigeria showing our military capability and position to wiping us out). That we African should build own defence mechanism and intelligent without letting foreign power know our military capability blue print. Why are you so defensive about china military built defence system for Ghana? Don't you know in future china might reveal this military capability to your enemy? Are you enemy within? We Nigerian don't regard Ghana as threat to our national security. Please guys we should be very careful with some of thing we says on media site as we have enemy within in Nairaland media.

sweet_gala: Its not just about military might but what we stand to loose. The war would not be fought on the beaches of Normandy but right in our backdoor. The Nigerian civilian casualties would be great.
I guess diplomacy won in the end, we had conceded so much to the Cameroonians in the past that after the war ends what happened to Germany after both world wars would be our portion. We would loose face.
My elder brother was stationed at Ikang, as a soldier between 2002 - 2008. The French and the Camerounian gendarmes attacked the Nigerian troops there. Bros, the Nigerian soldiers fought and killed so many gendarmes. I will post a picture of a military hardware captured by our soldiers. Bakassi is a swampy place. Many French soldiers left the area because of the swampy ecology. They couldnt stand the place.

Do you think the West will just sit back and watch while you build your war machine? Their satellite systems monitor everything we do therefore I can't see them allowing us to build a war machine right under their noses.

The time for us to have built s war machine hsd passed even Dr chinweizu hax acknowledged that if Africa can not defend itself from Western aggression by 2060 we might be facing extinction

And how does a Ministry of Defence building pose as a security threat? We might as well not have Presidential planes which are manufactured outside Africa as well.
The days when Kwame Nkrumah said Africa needed to be United to forestall this neo-colonialism is now more meaningful than ever.
The United states is not a signatory to ICC(International Criminal Court) and as such does not allow its citizens to be tried by the ICC, but since America is the self acclaimed World Cup it arrests other citizens and sends them to ICC.
If African Presidents cannot see this fuckkery and opt out, do you think they have the common sense to come together and have a United army?

D truth is that if france attacked Naija, it would av become much larger conflict drawing our traditional frnd canada even china n russia cos france action wouldn't be honoured by UNSC remember vietnam,lebanon civil war,current syrian conflict where world power picked or couldn't picked side, france wouldn't want large conflict esp. humilating one lyk viet war at expense of their economics

chidindufrank: What is south south? Who was Ojukwu's deputy and later became the President of Biafra?


That was then, delta Edo cross river akwaibom and rivers will never join Biafra as of this day.
Even now the Ogbonis have said they won't join Niger delta republic. Y'all clamouring for a breakup should expect at least 5 countries

Opio, watch this video. It was the French that coined the term "genocide" for what was going on.

I see no sense in this post. Some dumbass jst dont understand how international politics works. The worst france could have done was to back cameroon up with weapons and tactical advice like they did in libya. They wouldnt dare raised a single finger against Nigeria and well, that's not because they can not.
France would easily deal with Nigeria because we do not have the support of any major world power; without france Nigeria would have easily defeated cameroon: we missed it when we tilted 100% towards the west.

We need to do something or else we will be exterminated. We have to try or we are screwed.

Thats an erroneous statement. It is only God that can wipe a Nation, no person or country whatsoever can share power with the Almighty. Never in History has it happened

musiwa1l: I question the ownership of bakassi. It is wrong to believe Nigeria own bakassi. Bakassi is own by cameroon.

There is a tribe call Bakassa people inside cameroon. and there is a Bakassa mountain inside cameroon. The Bakassa people are the owners of bakassi. And they are inside cameroon.

So the world court was right in its decision. Even while this information was not available at that time. Satellite pictures shows it is not own by nigeria.

why is your brain facing the foot print of a satellite and which one exactly?

Ngwakwe: The threat was real, that's why the Federal Government jettisoned Peugeot Series for Toyota Brands.

The boycott is still affecting France economy till thisday.


you cant compare the economic distress of Total with Peugeot in the french economy can you?
though it was Elf and fina at the time but they were all french interests.

lucky Don: France cannot dare attacking us.I know they have a superior military power but they can't because America can never allow that taking into consideration that Nigeria is the most strategic partners of US in Africa and also a big oil supplier to the US economy.


m0r0n, read the article to see where America stood

History books written by the British.
Have you never heard of Napoleon Bonaparte?
Do you know who won the hundred years war between France and England. Yes it was France.
Pls don't use only WW2 to judge.
Britain would have also fallen if not for US.
