This ship should naturally be the flagship of the Nigerian Navy...

Not that US Coast guard reject called NNS Thunder or whatever.

F89 is the real s#it.

The last NN warship to cross the Equator decommissioned

What the hell? ??

Thank God if actually true.

This frigate is a badass!!!!! , though from the 80s but it capabilities is still sophisticated by today's standard and can be upgraded to meet present day requirements.

What a joke. Our naval flagship is a frigate. There was indeed a country.

Top officers don get plenty money

Even an ordinary US destroyer big pass this. But we getting there.

Is that algae growing in that water?

If water cannot be maintained, what of sensitive equipment in the facility

Oop...get well soon Aradu..

Will this repairs bring it to par with the most powerful warships out there? No? Then it's a waste of money, money that we "supposedly" don't have.

Navy ship Looking like a cargo ship can't we own a destroyer or carrier..

A carrier? To do what task exactly? The airforce is as good as useless.

In topics like this, people rush to be first to comment. Then they have nothing to say after booking space. Lol

I am impressed that we have a dockyard that can do repairs and refitting even if we can't build our own ships yet

They're building already, but smaller ones though

The whole Nigerian navy is no match for ordinary US Coast guards.

With warships like the Abdel Nasser , Egypt and South Africa currently has the best warships and navy in Africa. The Nigerian Navy barely makes the top 7. Even Asari dokubo's pirates are better equipped than the Nigerian navy.

US coast guards are not ordinary abeg.

Apprehending steel hearted, rich and "i don't give a f**k about human lives" smugglers and drug kings/queens no be beans.

Tompolo and Shekaru dey use our Navy and Army play ball. Pity.

No be water hyacinth full that water so.. not surprised tho, Nigerian water ways is always so dirty especially Lagos state. They can't even clean the dockyard

A world war 2 relic

About 500 billion to be spent on this repair

Wonders of science. I bow to the west. Such a progressive and resourceful people. We buy airtime in bulk upto 2m.0909 63002O. Imagine if only Africans existed. The earth would have been worse than hell. Damn it. I mean, damn it.

when I think about the wonders of the west, I just feel God cheated us (the blacks) and at such the whites are superior to us.

Come to think of you, Africans have never made any breakthrough in science here in the shores of Africa. We tend to do better outside here.

That is unfortunately the generation of people we have now. They derive joy from first to comment syndrome . Some even announce they are first to comment back to back. Some announce they are first to comment twice a day as if it adds anything positive in their lives, They lay wait on nairaland waiting for new topics so can get in their position of achievement. Now in the cases where they do comment it is only tribal insults you see them coming up with. They are the much touted leaders of tomorrow.

what evidence do you have to prove this callous statement

Na that old rusty warhorse....sorry warship that they use petrol to kickstart d diesel engine u dey praise like a new bride?when serious nations are using destroyers I doubt it her guns can fire at a flock of vultures.

Igbaba2:
waoooo......massive infrastructure!

Infra...what? Do you understand the post at all? Read it again and check the pictures and find what NNS mean?
No offense just trying to put it right to you.

I Love PMB

Normally warships of this age are decommissioned.
Its more expensive to maintain in the medium and long term.
And its a frigate class warship.
We should raise the bar and acquire a destroyer class warship or build a frigate class warship in the dockyard.
This ship should be decommissioned please.

Now that it is former and undergoing repairs, after the repairs, what is Its future in the Nigerian Navy?
That it's now former,means it has lost its original position in the fleet.

Nigeria navy would rather negotiate and collect bribe from militants than face them head on. Them wan die. If you know you know
