They just placed an order for more arms for Fulani Bandits and Boko Haram. 75% of whatever arms Nigeria purchases, end up in the arms of violent and terrorists groups.

I doubt that's ever going to happen.. not under the watch of a Yoruba man.

Arms cannot defeat these terrorists but intelligence. Intelligence will show you who the sponsors are. If you take out the sponsors,
the terrorism will gradually fade away.

The incompetent Tinubu needs to fix the economy because no matter how hungry the lion us, it will never eat grass! Instead of Nigerians to die of hunger, they'd get involved in criminality

It is not just about having weapons. It is also about having well trained personnel that can deploy those weapons effectively and strategically based on ironclad intelligence, else na innocent civilians go suffer.

In a significant move to enhance Nigeria’s military capabilities in the face of escalating security challenges, the United States Department of Defense has confirmed a groundbreaking arms sale to Nigeria.

The deal, valued at $1 billion, includes the acquisition of 12 AH-1Z Viper attack helicopters, a formidable addition to Nigeria’s military assets.

The contract also encompasses 32 mission computers supplied by Northrop Grumman, with an additional contract valued at $7.7 million awarded in December to further bolster Nigeria’s defence capabilities.

Nigeria has been grappling with multifaceted security threats, including the persistent Boko Haram insurgency in the northeast and rampant banditry in the northwest.

The acquisition of the state-of-the-art AH-1Z Viper helicopters, scheduled for completion in June 2024, marks a crucial step in fortifying Nigeria’s military prowess to address these complex security challenges.

The AH-1Z Viper is a versatile attack helicopter designed for various missions, including reconnaissance, escort, and strike operations.

Nigeria’s ongoing military procurement strategy includes a range of sophisticated weaponry, such as m-346 attack aircraft, T-129 ATAK helicopters, Agusta 109 Trekker multi-role helicopters, and Chinese-made Wing Loong II drones.

Military experts say the acquisition of the AH-1Z Viper helicopters aligns with Nigeria’s broader effort to address and counteract the diverse security threats within its borders.

Exactly

They said the 12 Super Tucanos were game changers.

Can't remember the last I heard of them

They're probably grounded because some crooked officer has diverted funds for parts and maintenance
