I was just wondering what exactly has the military being doing with the nearly $30bn+ they were given from 2010 till date ?

Just compare with Malaysia, a country that has spent about $20bn over the same period of time yet for some reason has a much better military than we do. Look at the inventory of their Armed Forces and compare with Nigeria's Armed Forces and you'll instantly see the difference.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Malaysian_Air_Force


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigerian_Army
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malaysian_Army

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Malaysian_Navy
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigerian_Navy



Now my question is do you people really want Buhari to not probe all these people that have been running the Military and obviously stole alot of your money? (this is an indisputable fact right here)

Lets not even get started with other sectors which must definitely have billions lost to corruption or wasteful spending.

Some threads discussing past Budgets here.

And after all this when Buhari say's the money saved from corruption will go a long way in fixing problems some people MOCK him and HAIL the President who oversaw all this crap as a HERO.

Naija ogas, show achievement ke? OP, here in naija, ogas are not hrld accountable for anything.
From church Ogas to Local govt oga, to Obas, and creek rat Oga. NONE is held to show anything. So this kwesion will never get any answer. It is the unwritten law of naija land.
Ask Iyabo Obasanjo And that aunty that bought amoured tank as car or even ask Alamesiya or even that Zamfara peadophile that saif its ok to bang an 8 year old.
