How do you know they were not deployed? Have you ever visited the theatre of conflict? How do you know they were even considered for use? Do you realise the army has hundreds of APCs? It is for them to decide what equipment is best suited for what operation, not armchair civilian generals like you with zero military training and the empty-headed buffoon you're defending.

The same lie they are telling us about the "innoson-motors" is the same lie they told us about "made in Nigeria smart phones". Till date, am yet to see a single "made in Nigeria car" plying our roads. Abi are the innoson motors invincible?


They just keep lieing to Nigerians who are wallowing in the pool of gullibility. And because Nigerians(all of us) are generally lazy to conduct a simple research about the lies that are been fed to them, we just swallow everything.

And who told you igirigi wasn't used in the combat against BH?

At least try look at the pictures posted. Haba! Try dey think small broda....its not illegal to think yet....lots of Igirigi "in-action" pics have been posted on nairaland oga....

And the mere assembling of an APC, most likely with the same quality as Soviet era APCs got you this elated, no? When you have countries on the same level as Nigeria like South Africa building one of the best attack helicopters in the world, and a very decent fighter jet. Iran building mini-submarines, fighter jets, and reverse-engineering the most advanced drone in US' inventory - RQ-170. Brazil with one of the most decent mid-range fighter jets out there etc.. grin

You're delusional!
Oh SHUT UP. Nigeria is NOT on the ''same level'' as South Africa. SA has been enjoying significant govt investment in her economy since the 1850s while Nigeria only got started in 1960 after the lootocrat, do-nothing British were kicked out. SA has had a weapons industry since the 1890s while Nigeria had none till the 1970s. How the hell are they on the "same level"?

I have seen so many Innoson buses plying Nigerian roads, in fact, transportation companies like Cross Country, Efex Motors and so many others are using these buses between Lagos and Accra, Ghana.

Please, learn to speak less than you know. Grazie!

As at 2013, I saw these vehicles at Sani Abacha Baracks, Asokoro.
Who ever engineered the removal of Ihejirika doesn't have the good of Nigeria at heart.


The Igirigi APC is the Nigerian Army's locally manufactured armoured personnel carrier.

Designed and manufactured by the army Corps of Engineers, the APC was first introduced to the media during the 2012 Nigeria Army Day celebrations (NADCEL). While actual specs of the vehicle are still undisclosed, observers noted the remote control weapons station, and its IED deflecting V shaped hull.

The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt.-Gen. Azubuike Ihejirika,said the local production of APC had saved the nation at least 30 per cent of the cost of the foreign version and that the unveiling of the APC was part of the ongoing reform in the military and in line with the transformation agenda of the Jonathan administration.[1]

In 2013, during events to mark the 150th year anniversary of the Nigeria Army, A desert camouflaged Igirigi with a 20mm gun led the parade of vehicles drawn up from various formations in the country at the Armed Forces review, which took place at Abuja.

Oh, the "Giant of Africa" isn't on the same level as South Africa, no? - interesting.

How about Iran? Technologically and militarily, Iran is far ahead of South Africa - the country is an intellectual property. So, what's the excuse for celebrating mediocrity and non-achievement?

You're delusional!

Which one did u build before now?

Anyone who know their onions know that the capacity to make things in manufacturing has to start from somewhere and then you get better at it!

We had no manufacturing base and had to start from somewhere!

You are comparing yourself to South Africa, every major world class automotive or aerospace or weapons manufacturer have a presence in South Africa

From BMW to Ford to General Motors to Bombadier or BAE systems. Count them, they all have presence in South Africa

Speaking in colloquialism doesn't negate the fact that you're elated over non-achievement. And that's basically cos your standard is disgracefully below par, with no expectations whatsoever.

Just take a look at yourself and ask yourself why you're allergic to aiming higher. You don't have to always start from bottom of the totem pole technologically, since the technology is out there - and has been out there for eons. If you're an intellectual property, you can start somewhere close to the top - and move from there. China was under arms embargo when it started building modern military equipment. Ditto Iran which has been under all kinds of sanctions and embargoes for over 40 years.

There's absolutely nothing to celebrate, mate. Get a grip and get with reality.

You judge based on the pictures coming out of there. And what I've seen thus far are mostly hilux trucks painted in camo, and no different from what militants use.

At the end of the day, APCs will give them more advantage. And when you're fighting a war, especially a brutal one that has cost tens of thousands of lives, you need to deploy your best tools there. Prolonging it, while wasting the lives of innocent people and the patriots in the army, doesn't serve anyone's interests.
You do NOT judge "based on the pictures coming out of there" unless you are a gullible dunce. CNN or BBC can decide to show you one or two hilux buses and IGNORE more significant equipment being deployed in order to advance their own agenda. I notice they NEVER report Nigerian airstrikes against BH. Doesn't suit their agenda to show we have a functional airforce with fighter jets. But they were quick to report when Egypt and Jordan sent jets against ISIS.
