Thought BH has been defeated so why are they requesting for fighter jets over conquered insurgency?

Shettima was emphatic that the change of guard at the Operation Lafiya Dole Theatre Command, which saw the replacement of Maj.-Gen. Leo Irabor, who is now at the Multinational Joint Task Force, did not help in sustaining the winning spirit of the troops.

If we have the right environment and encouragement, we will invent and create things that are better than these.

My advice to future leaders is that they should focus more on developing the Nigerian people by providing solid education in fields that will turn our present pitiable and sorry state to a more prosperous nation. Avoid wasting money on things that won't change the price of garri in the local markets.

The one Dasuki did didn't baffle you...?
Nice point but then should people continue to die?
You can only type because we are not affected.
We are really lucKY that Boko didn't spread.

Gov. Shettima's claim on Christian/Southern Army Commanders doing more in the war against Boko Haram than their Muslim/Northern counterparts deserves to be dissected by the intelligence agencies. His assertion further fuels speculation that some elements in the security agencies are sympathetic to the terrorists' extremist campaigns in the Northeast.

Going by the wisdom of your logic, I guess Nigeria should just disband the military and spend all those billions wasted on the military on infrastructural development and to feed hungry folks with garri. After all, with the right infrastructure (inclusive of stomach infrastructure), there would be jobs, and with reduced unemployment, the security situation wouldn't be so bad so there wouldnt even be need for the military or any other security force.

But on the flip side, there was once a time when bokoharam was on a bombing spree across Nigeria, from Abuja to Kaduna to Jos to Kano to Minna etc, hardly a week passed without you hearing of a bomb blast with scores of innocent people killed. These billions spent on security which in your peculiar wisdom you now claim is a waste is the reason those bokoharam bombings have not gotten to your father's house, and maybe to your head.

This is splendid, am sure the EFCC recovered loots could simply be used to pay for the jets.

[b]Misrepresentation and misinformation
.

The NAF have just procured 12 turboprop planes these are not supersonic or subsonic fighter jet aircraft.

Is it best value for money not in my opinion is it the best use of supposedly scarce resources again not from my position.

How effective open to debate.
