How do you spend $1bil to fight an organisation you claim was defeated?

"
Gimba On Channels This Morning Asked A Devastating Question, "How Did The American Govt Budget Only $500M To Fight Taliban In The Whole Of Afghanistan ( a country almost the size of Nigeria) But Buhari's Govt Is Budgeting $1B To Fight Boko Haram In Just One Section Of Nigeria!

na wa and to think they have cash scattered in different agencies ooo

efcc is hoarding cash to finance bhari's election bid. yet they want to borrow 1billion dollars for what? to buy weapons? because jonathan alrady bought those weapons, and the military has not come out to say no weapons.





and yet Bmc and cows will wander into this thread to talk rubbish

The $500 million is probably for few days feeding, even Pakistan gave Afghanistan $500 million to support over one trillion dollars the US has spent so far. This amount does not include donations from world bank, United Nation and other countries.

The answer is simple. America already has highly sophisticated weapons and they are also major manufacturer of weapons. Nigeria Army are still using AK 47 that was used to fight the second world war. Nigeria need more money to buy modern weapon.....The only thing is that the whole money may be looted.

The Gimba and many of the Channels TV presenters are very ignorant. Is Channels not paying her presenters and producers money and create time for research? Poor journalism.

Afghanistan has cost the U.S. over a trillion dollars since the Bush administration launched its military intervention in late 2001.

The $1.07 trillion bill can be divided into three segments. Overseas Contingency Operations funds specifically dedicated to the war come to $773 billion. $243 billion can be attributed to increases in the base budget of the Department of Defense while the increase in the Veterans Administration budget cost $54.2 billion

Buhari will destroy this country with corruption...

He is not fit intellectually and physically to rule Nigeria..

His plan is to cause division among different tribes... Nigeria is more divided in Buhari's regime... Funny enough the only scenario you see how united Nigeria is, is when Ghana, South Africa or another country says trash about our country.... If only the unity was like that!!!

Buhari will take Nigeria to the relm of disaster...

APC is a party of dictatorship....

You get time to the answer pained anarchist (PDP and it's allies) who wish to destroy the country just because their hero lost an election. When I saw the story that America used $500 million to fight taliban, I thought it was a typographical error until I realised that they were serious.
The afganistan war that started in 2001 after the September 9-11 attacks and continues to this day costs N500 million shocked?

Which kind dullard is saying America spent $500 million on Afghan war, IS that amount enough for a round trip of their carrier task force alone?
