One would assume the most physically fit thing a sailor needs to do is swim and tread water. I then dont understand how anyone has the guts to call her unfit, when most Nigerian naval officers were found to be unable to swim grin grin. If they left out the most basic requirement to being a sailor during training, what else did they leave out? I still find this shocking.....


http://www./forum/general/news/6732-most-nigerian-navy-personnel-cant

"In a bid to improve operation at sea and waterways, the Nigerian navy said yesterday that it has begun compulsory training in swimming for its officers and ratings across the country.The navy expressed surprise that majority of its personnel, including senior and junior cadre do not know how to swim.

The Flag Officer Commanding, Naval Training Command, Rear Adm. Goddy Anyankpele made this known during its ongoing “First Annual Intra Command Swimming Competition, FAICSC”, in Onne, Rivers State. He said the move at instituting mandatory swimming for its service members was germane to reduce potential accidents and personnel casualties during operations.

Anyankpele said the navy would sustain the training program until all service members and trainees’ were adequately trained."
Your weblink does not work, so show us the date of that news report, how many years ago?

Learning to swim takes just about 6 months and all those who cannot swim have been compulsorily sent for swimming training, so how many are still unable to swim when everybody affected has been trained to swim?

Show us proof that every South African navy personnel can swim.....we get surprises when we open up your military, we see pilots who cannot fly aircraft and your former navy chief of staff, a whole Admiral rank has no ship navigation certificate, he cannot sail a ship, he will get lost in the ocean grin grin

[size=13pt]Nigeria's four new Nuclear power plants construction starts 2016

Biggest, Best, Newest Nuclear Power Plants In Africa...Naija
[/size]

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — “Discussions are ongoing, and I think they have reached an advanced stage,” Usman said, adding that the first nuclear reactor is to be constructed in the central Nigerian state of Kogi, and ground will be broken in September 2016.
In May, Usman told Sputnik that Nigeria hoped to reach a deal with Russia's nuclear energy company Rosatom on the construction of four nuclear power plants in the country, reportedly worth up to $8 billion each, within a few months.

Boko Haram reportedly committed massacre yet again.

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/nigeria-boko-haram-kills-dozens-fresh-attack-borno-state-1518295
Boko Haram is no longer fighting a war, they are now 100% into crime. Looking for innocent civilian to murder while running away from Nigerian army, has become a situation of crime and not a war anymore.

Anyone avoiding military forces and snooping on civilians to committ cold blooded murder , is a 100% coward.

Bokos are now full time cowards.

Nigeria has zero navy. You have fokol, nothing.

You are only left with a paper navy.


Nigeria has a naval strength of only 75 ships or are you counting canoes as well. Bwahahaha…

You want to compete with western powers by estimating your fleet to be around 350. You set craze.


Total Naval Strength: 75
Aircraft Carriers: 0
Frigates: 2
Destroyers: 0
Corvettes: 0
Submarines: 0
Coastal Defense Craft: 12
Mine Warfare: 3
Anyway, 2008 to 2012 Nigerian navy purchased 300 brand new small vessels, add that to your 75 = 375 vessels

Thank you for proving me right, I said NN has about 350 vessels.

Last year 2014 we added another new 30 !!!!!!! http://www.punchng.com/news/badeh-inaugurates-30-gunboats-warns-oil-thieves/

Nigeria's Navy chief is crying foul that more than 50% of his ships are inoperable and he is unable to fulfill his constitutional obligation of protecting territorial waters.

No military force in the world is normally 100% at any time. There will always be downtime equipment.

Nigerian navy is the biggest in Africa by number of vessels, so 350 to 400 vessels, with 50% broken down, we still have about 200 vessels ruling the sea !

Why cant you be as truthful on NL as you are on Beegeagle, Agaugust?

Augustine says:

September 1, 2015 at 3:34 pm


Oga Sir Kay, Nigeria needs a modern and powerful military to be on that seat, that UN position is not for a country flying F-7 jets and driving T-72 tanks, with zero Submarines, it is for a world medium power to join the super/major powers already there.

South Africa is competing for that same seat and they have a far better equipped military and world class local defence industry. The only edge Nigeria has over them is ‘experience’ mixed with bad records of embarrassing defeat at home in the hands of Bokos before we reversed the situation.

The responsibility for a United Nations permanent security council seat occupant is above the level of someone begging around the globe for tear gas to fight a war and importing simple dumb bombs that have existed since 1920. Best of luck to my country, I love my Nigeria no matter what"

You say the Eben on Beegeagle is not same as Eben Barlow, so what makes the Augustine on Beegeagle same as Agaugust on Nairaland ? Prove it !

BTWN , I wonder why that Augustine on Beegeagle does not know SANDF is a dry land only army with no single amphibious armoured vehicle when Nigeria has about 500 amphibious armour for force projection around the world.

He never talks about SAAF having 19 km range missiles when NAF has 35 km range missiles, he seems to have a hidden agenda.

He does not even know your navys Valour Frigates have ZERO torpedoes in their empty tubes while NNS Aradu has dozens of torpedoes. Well, he is entitled to his opinion or he has an agenda of pushing Nigeria to arm up to next levels, smart guy then

I honestly don't understand their level of analysing situations military wise. We buy what is needed and buy new. They buy used equipment and randomly. their military inventory shows they don't have policies governing military purchasing. Shame poor country
Fool grin

Nigeria buys lots of brand new stuff, including the types that South Africa does not have, e.g.

18 units Mi-171 Terminator armed assault helicopters
5 units guided missile armed CH-3 Drones
2 ATR-42 Surveyor ISTAR / MPA aircraft
2 Beechcraft 350E ISTAR aircraft
2 Diamond DA42 ISR aircraft
47 BTR-3 Guardian IFV
120 Bigfoot MRAPs
120 Spartan LAV
200 Cobra APC
72 VBL LAV
25 Igirigi LAV
2 Stealth OPV
2 Stealth MPV
60 stealth IPV
200 Gun boats
12 Eurocopter Fennec armed scout helicopters
Many Aeryon Quadcopter drones

The Nigerian military arsenal is 90% brand new purchased weapons.

Fool, you say we only buy second hand, no wonder you said after one year on this thread you don't see anything that makes Nigeria powerful, I guess your second hand brain only thinks of a few second hand equipment, the new ones you are too retaaaaared to notice....mumu grin grin

Commonwealth Games Durban 2022 logo (Supplied)
Today, 06:53 AM Sport24
Cape Town - The city of Durban has been confirmed as historic host of the 2022 Commonwealth Games.

The announcement was made in Auckland, New Zealand on Wednesday.

It will be the first time an African city hosts the Commonwealth Games.

Canadian city and previous host Edmonton withdrew from the 2022 race in February, citing oil price-related financial concerns, leaving the South African port as the only bidder.

"A historic decision for all of us and one that my commission completely endorses," newly-elected Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) president Louise Martin told the organisation's general assembly in Auckland.

The next Commonwealth Games will be held at Australia's Gold Coast in 2018.
