HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Kai, these your posts are cringe-worthy, i swear! Everyone is telling you that you're an Olodo and you still persist in shaming yourself. What sort of masochistic imbecility makes you persist with these inane replies?

Why stop at assault helos sef? Why not exhort 'Nigerian intellectuals' to develop aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines that surpass anything in the US Navy?

I pray that in a few years, when you would have had the opportunity to finish secondary school (i refuse to believe a graduate can be this brainless) and hopefully when your IQ improves, you will look back at these posts and cringe.

Now, betake thyself and thy addled brain out of my presence. I will jape no further with you, half-wit

Olodo raised to power 20

India is 13yrs older than Nigeria but today produces advanced weapons

South and North started their true modern nation hood after the Korean war 1953(7yrs before Nigeria's independence) but today produce advanced weapons.


You sound like a primary school dropout

igbo2011:
Why can't we make our own weapons? We need to be self reliant? Make our own hellicopters, planes, tanks ,etc. We should put our money into that instead of begging.

I miss Ojukwu Biafra and his love and support for black technology

texazzpete:
No. You didn't say 'advanced weapon'. You said 'better attack helicopter'

So you see a scenario where someone will wake up and make a superior attack helicopter than the Cobra that Bell Helicopter Coy built? And you forsee this happening in less than a decade?

LOL

Please keep posting. Every single post you make cements your reputation as a grade-A Olodo in everyone's eyes.

Someone called your attention to the fact that you don't know what you are talking about.


If a Nigerian intellectual develops a better attack helicopter compare to cobra is that not an advanced weapon.


Olodo raised to power 10 think well.

texazzpete:
I should think that the person who expresses confidence that a Nigerian can wake up and design and build a better attack helicopter than the state of the art models being built for the USAF - just because he's given a contract - is the actual olodo

These things take time. Investment in education, training, manufacturing...state of the art testing facilities.
We're talking YEARS or work here. Many, many years.

I notice you haven't volunteered to build or design or engineer anything. Color me surprised

Olodo cube


I said

if we challenge our intellectuals in weapons development, any of them who successfully develops an advance weapon should be given a contract to

a) Teach our military intellectuals

b) Approach DICON to help him mass produced the weapons and if DICON can't do so, he can then approach any industry to him mass produced the weapons.

texazzpete:
You cannot be serious.

Olodo square

ukandi1:
i have not falted ur position ur position on this at all.
Ogbunigwe u mentioned cannot even be remade or recreated again today. 4 men were involved , three have died without transfering d knowledge, d only surviving one said, there is virtually nothing he can do without d others.

Yes, we have dis challenges but only d living can/have plan. Lets stay alive first.
Ogbunigwe gave biafra victory by buying enuf time for them . To me that is victory in a way.
Abi u feel contrary?

I understand your point of urgency of buying weapons in a time like this but remember the war might last for years

It might surprise you that a Nigerian intellectual might be able to develop a better attack helicopter if promised to be given defence contract if he or she succeeds.


Ojukwu will never miss this kind of opportunity to showcase black men brilliant minds

ukandi1:
for the longterm plan yes, i agree with u. In the interim, we need to get out of where we have found ourselves alive..we have no structures to pull through on our own so for now, we just have to be d end users we have always been. Buy from them and stay alive to plan for tomoro.

While we are importing weapons it is advisable we encourage our intellectuals in weapons development because we never know if it is imported or indigeneous weapons that will save us. Eg Ogbunigwe though never gave Biafra victory but it gave Biafra respect by striking fear into the heart of Nigeria. True or False

eleojo23:
"There is a need to drive domestic resource mobilisation,”
How long will it take the government to realise this? Borrowing money is like postponing the evil day. It is better to face the situation and look for ways to generate revenue from within.

I partially disagree with you on internal generation of revenue for a nation like Nigeria

Reason

Most of the electronic mechanical etc products we use are imported. We need dollars to buy these products.

If Nigeria was producing the electronic mechanical etc products we import, your view would have being the perfect solution.


So I will advice her to finance global electronic mechanical etc industries to establish their industries in Nigeria in order to prevent dollar flight out of our reserve.

ukandi1:
supported..
I see russia also finding a reason to turn us down. Only china has 'genuine' interest in assisting us.

A nation that has lots of natural resources and by commission and omission refuses to develop her indigenous military technology is only inviting a clandestine and covert take over by neo colonialists.


China Russia might disappoint Nigeria leaving Nigeria more vulnerable .

My advice


Stirrup our intellectuals in weapons development.

Missy89:
Good point,


Kuwaiti state was base on the agreement between the victorious powers in the first world war and Saddam only tried to correct the sykye pickots agreement. i agree with the fact that nigeria needs a formidable military i am only empathizing the fact that we need a strong economy as well

Do you know that some nations feed themselves from the sales of weapons eg Israel.

Do you know that lots of people are employed in an efficient and effective weapons research development and production.

Do you know that if we give room for our intellectuals to participate in weapons development, their skills will be sharpen to a point where major economic institutions within and outside will employ their services leading to a robust and highly technological economic just like China Japan etc.

Technologies deployed for military use most time have been found to play a lot of roles in economic development and growth of great nations eg Internet

I disagree with her on the issue of African nations to be affected because their economy is export base

Reasons for my disagreement

1) Most African nations export only one type of commodity which makes them vulnerable to global prices. Unlike China Japan Europe and America which have diversified their export trade to ensure that if one commodity is affected they can be most assured that others will keep bringing in wealth until that commodity price recovers.

2) Nations suffering this global oil prices are nations that export majorly one type of commodity especially oil eg Russia.

Solution


Diversify our export trade in order to keep new dollar notes flowing in. Although it might not be huge but it will be better than our present predicament.


On this I score Okonjo my heroine 50% for identifying the problem but deprive her of the other 50% for not thinking the solution through.


The solutions are

1)diversify our export trade in order to bring more dollar notes flowing in.

2) fiinance global electronic mechanical etc industries to establish their industries in Nigeria in order to prevent dollar flight out of our foreign reserve due to high demand for dollar in order to import these essential products.

Missy89:
the west do not need to invade Nigeria. economic sanctions is enough to cripple the whole country. The nations's resources is in their control since inception. all they have to do is support a leader to keep the status quo, cut aids and acess to international markets etc. and as for regional adversaries, there is none (maybe Cameroon but since they have a security alliance with France, it is counter productive to modernize) Small arms to defend the nation inst the problem, corruption within the military high command is. the BH issue was an eye opener and reforms are needed in that establishment

Russia and China are corrupt but what have protected their sovereignty is their ability to develop and produced indigenous military technology.


Kuwait is not as corrupt as Nigeria but was invaded by Iraq.? True or False.

Missy89:
That is always the case. strong military has its price. Where do u draw the line?
It was not only a political weakness but a financial one as well. The country was flat broke and the huge military became a burden. U might not know this but Russia still gets military aid from the US to secure/destroy their nuclear stockpile since 1992. military modernization has costs if there is no vibrant economy. Economy should always come first, then military can modernize at the same pace.

There is a difference between military technological know how and excessive military spending


Nigeria is vulnerable to Western backed internal or external invasion because we lack basic military technological know how as a result of not giving room to our intellectuals in our higher institutions to participate in weapons research and development just the way other powerful nations do

Imagine GEJ winning election next year and Buhari's supporters decide to take up arms against the government. What chance do the government has if US decides to launch a naval blockade in order to prevent the government from importing weapons through the sea the way Biafra was blockade from importing weapons through the sea.

Nigerian Military keep it up

Chiwude:
The ways of God is not the ways of Man. Everything that happens to a man in life is geared towards two things: for corrective measures and awakening. The sleeping giant of Africa in the quest for world economic growth abandoned its military project for other frivolities. Forgetting that a prosperous nation without a strong military might draws itself closer to enemy invasion. It is a shame that at this age the biggest economy in Africa cannot boast of a single military high-tech ammunition manufacturing and research complex. While countries like South-Africa is in its advance stage of military technology, Nigeria on the other hand discarded it Gods giving opportunity to leverage on the war time heroics of the Biafran military Obunigwes. Subsequent governments saw the Biafran innovations as a rag tag hardware and preferred begging on their knees to buy outdated and mal-functional weapons from their white masters (allies). Until Nigeria start prioritizing local manufacture of weapons the future looks bleak for the nations sovereignty. Because a time shall come when the eastern and western block may ally themselves against us. And if such happens the China and Russia we now look up to, will turn out to be just a spectator in a crisis between Nigeria and rebels (or aggressive countries) supported by the Americans/French.

That is why I keep shouting


#Involve our higher institutions in weapons development while DICON mass produced these weapons

WombRaiders:
Olodo higher institutions are into research and not development and actual production.

Olodo square

Development means Research and testing.


Mass production will be left in the hands of Defence Industrial Corporation of Nigeria( DICON)

Olodo do you understand my point now

Nigeria should promise our higher institutions defence contracts if they could develop advanced weapons


This will help us attain self sufficiency in weapons development and production

OP

I will advise you do more research because if US wants to find out the sponsors of BH, the will trace all those who have contacts with the arrested traitors

Ogbon400:
A transitional authority headed by a retired General must immediately be established before total chaos breaks out. This transitional authority will be as inclusive as possible and will act as a war cabinet.

Unnecessary


What GEJ needs to do are

1) Approach other nations for weapons


2) Setup branches of defense ministry through out all public/ private higher institutions in order to encourage them in weapons development by promising to give them defense contract if they develop advanced weapons and the defence ministry should organize an annual 2weeks weapons show.

This looks like a woman in her 40s


She looks matured enough to know when she is brain washed.

Ideyontop:
I didn't know there was a seaport in northern Nigeria.

I see your level of knowledge, and ur inability to learn only makes you a dunce.

Keep using your seaport in the north! Where is it located, Borno state? . Ewu Can Beer- In Zebrudayas voice

Olodo read my comment again for better comprehension

ijawcitizen:
You mean imo river or you're banking on a phanthom igbo territory by the coast? If i were you i won't be so quick to attach akwa ibom to ur igbo republic, they don't share similar sentiments. they have a struggle to reunite and reconcile with the folks in cross rivers state, greedy igbos is the last thing on their mind

Biggest olodo


Have you heard of Azumini.? Yes or No

Ideyontop:
Thank you for calling me olodo! But a teenager like you who has not traveled around, and does not know how things work practically.

Currently those items that come through into our country,where do they come in from? Who is the olodo,you will find out you have been.

When goods come from Benin Republic how do do they get into the country? Among those countries you mentioned, aside from the republic of Benin, which other has a functional sea port. Don't deceive yourself,you can't take commerce away from Lagos,its got the infrastructure to handle it.

I wanted to be nice, let me stop here.

I repeat you are olodo for thinking that other new countries won't develop their seaports


Do you know that the West and North intentionally left the seaports of the SS and SE undeveloped to deprive boths regions economic empowerment

ijawcitizen:
Are you sure you're from planet earth?

Olodo


Stop thinking Igboland is SE.

Igboland cuts across SE SS and Benue axis


Have you heard of Azumini river sea that passed through Akwa Ibom into the Atlantic.

Ideyontop:
The west don't really require cocoa to survive,they have got the sea ports.Cotonou for example!

Olodo


Who will import through Lagos when everyone returns back to their region.


Even the North has the options of Chad Niger Benin Cameroon and Biafra( If we agree) to import their products by sea/rail.

oduastates:
Yep.
Karma is a biiiitchh. We will see how it going to end.

I hope Odua republic is ready to survive outside oyel money.

omololu2020:
well u are free to dey mumu ursef for dia.mehn lik gumi and a lot of northern leaders are ready to mak nigeria really hot if GEJ wins next year.Gumi even makes it clear dat wen nigeria divide abuja will go with arewa.and we hav guys lik asari issuin threat,tellin us ao dey will mak d country ungovernable if GEJ is not re elected next year.I experience d fight btwn opc and mallams in lagos in d early 2000's.I will neva forget d way hausas killed primary skul student in mile12.u are free to dey fool ursef sayin nigeria is united.I can bet my money dat u are not livin in ur region.let's just see ao tins will luk lik afta d 2015 presidential election,u will see ao dis united we are.

berem:

May God also help him give freedom to other parts of Nigeria


I hope your region is finding an alternative to cocoa wealth.

Remember

Cocoa wealth can't redeem your region from the ravages of poverty
