The immediate past National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki, (retd), has given a hint that some arms and ammunition procured by the Jonathan administration had not arrived the country.

The former NSA said that some elements whose identities he did not disclose were frustrating the nation’s efforts to get the critically needed equipment to fight the Boko Haram insurgency.

According to Dasuki, the government had to issue queries to some arms suppliers for the delay in the supply of the items paid for by the government.

Dasuki was quoted as having made the comment in an interview with PR Nigeria, an Abuja based Media Consultancy outfit for the Nigerian military and security agencies.

He was also quoted as having said that some of the equipment procured by the Jonathan administration would arrive in the country very soon.

“It was unfortunate that some elements are frustrating the efforts. We even had to query some suppliers for the delay in the delivery of arms and ammunitions,” Dasuki was quoted as saying.

Dasuki said that the previous administration acquired a lot of highly sophisticated equipment to fight and reclaim 22 local government areas from the insurgents after years of frustration by Western countries.

It was stated that the items procured included “Alpha jets, Armoured Personnel Carriers, MRAP vehicles, advanced artillery pieces, assorted arms and ammunition, highly sophisticated surveillance drones, T72 and carried out modification of F7 supersonic jet fighters.”

The items also include armoured tanks with comprehensive NBC protection system, Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles with capacity to withstand explosions, Improvised Explosive Devices and assorted armoured personnel carriers with effective protective system against small arms fire and shrapnel.

He said that the equipment were effectively utilised to recover 22 local government areas then under Boko Haram control and prevent the Boko Haram from disrupting the 2015 general election.

Dasuki was also quoted as having said that the security forces were able to use the equipment to prevent the leader of the sect, Abubakar Shekau, from releasing videos of threats against the country.

“We are glad that we also provided assorted Armoured Personnel Carriers to transport troops to the battlefield. They were armed for self defence and to provide protection from attacks from shrapnel and small arms fire.

“All these were acquired in the last one year after years of frustration by Western powers who denied us of the equipment and sabotaged our efforts to acquire same from other sources which are reasons for some delay in delivery,” he added.

Only a bottomless fool would still be in doubt that GEJ's administration ran a full-fledged Lootocracy. The probe is yet to fully begin and the thieves are all too fidgety and already making all kinds of half-baked confessions pointing accusations and counter-accusations at themselves! Our gallant retired Colonel should just save his speeches for the DSS director, Daura. I'm sure he will be more than willing to listen to him, I mean who doesn't like listening to lies when you already know the truth.

Like i said earlier wait till you are probed. All the dollars and naira you stole, you will cough them out like you have dollarculosis.

Icon4s:


U are saying trash. It is so obvious that u are an APC baboon.Ur hate for GEJ is one of d reasons some pple hate Buhari.
It is very obvoius dat some elements even in Nigeria, particularly from d North and opposition party wanted d last regime to fail. The innocent blood u people "shared" directly or indirectly will continue to hunt u pple all ur life.

why the attack? have u ever tried to reason withur brain that it's impossible for me as a yoruba boy to destroy my region just to spite som1 from the South south....how will the 'opposition' destroy their region to spite him....even Lawal Kaita that made that statement was in PDP at that period. ...

They are probably planning to receive the Arms after Amnesty is given to bokoharam. Now they must give priority to Obama's arms assistance first before they consider anything bought from GEJ's $1bn loan secured to fight bokoharam.

You are right!

u are right. He said the equipment were been hindered by some elements.mind you this is the nsa of nigeria who had the hears of mr president.and also all power that comes with it.so it is eitherthe group were pdp guys certainly they can not be apc cause they would have u them for political campaing or arrested.they are either part of the group of scammers use in stealing money meant for weapons purchase.his role was to just give a slight complaint to show he was doing his work while at the long run he overlook the activites of this guys while collecting his share.u know now standard nigerian format.if u as the nsa can not get the equipment u claimed was paid for shipped into nigeria as at when due it shows u never cared for the people dying. Can any one of you tell me one equipment that was bougth that change the tide in the six weeks war.none. All equiment use were already in operation.the chadians change the tide with 2500 men and $1m we paid out per day.they have a better airforce than ours,while cameroun as better atillery than ours.simple.wit what the have spent and what we have on ground the differeance is just to much.check out indonesia and malayia spending within the same time frame with ours. See what they have turned there armedforces into.we out spent them.but what do we have to show for it. Buying t2 tanks to fight in a desert/unconventional war is funny. How many tanks does bh have.if not what was stolen from us.with simple anti tank missile it tuaa.u what boko taken towns and celebrating inside. Not airforce attack choppers or precision missiles to take them out.igirigiri apx is built in nigeria.proforce can build good apcs needed for this war.they are here in nigeria.

APC has started again. So is Dusuki this Dasuki that the new trend now. I just keep hating this party the more every day.

clefstone:

This guy is just a bastard liar trying to save face. For all we know, the only meaningful achievement in the fight against BH was the 6 weeks political "miscalculation", where what the Nigerian army could not do in 6years, they suddenly did in 6 weeks. Exceot Dansuki is trying to say this weapons became functional only 6 weeks to election. The last one year before elections was stories of BH taking over local governments and hoisting flags, killing innocent people and not the other way around this clown is saying.


The clown should mention names of "elements" or shut the hell up. This is no longer campaign period.

Like i said earlier wait till you are probed. All the dollars and naira you stole, you will cough them out like you have dollarculosis.

We are not fooled by the deceitful pictures you showed us, Okonjo also showed us figures too, but when Oshimole questioned further, she became silent ever since!!!

May your life be long and fruitful, you've said it all.

Want to see the military hardware on the battlefield? Go to beageagle.com, you'll see all you wanna see about the Nigerian military! Purchases made by the Jonathan administration was more than all the heads of state after Gowon!

Before commenting log on to Sunewspaper to hear the truth then do your judgement rather than just running pooh mouth. APC at work master liars and chief propagandist boloks.

Your man, the a general Commander of Boko, is now here. We can see how he has routed BH in two months like he promised. We can see how he went back to his vomit regarding all his criticism of Jonathan (never negotiate; involving neighboring countries is cowardice etc!). But the truth is that he dare not think he can deceive Nigerians by kicking off negotiations and amnesty with BH. We know that has been his game plan.

Awaiting clearing I believe or until Boko haram finished the entire North East before you and Jonathan will deliver the weapons. Look for something better to say I beg.

Your arguments are shallow.
