NAIJA I HAIL THEE

Nadheer15:
After modifying your post. Not honeymoon, the US has promised to help Nigeria, PMB has even said Nigeria is going to start it's own weapons production and this would have a lot of US influence. The final is GEJ failed, why wait till over 13,000 people die?!

Henry120:
Sharrapp you fvcking Idiiot, can you point out the South African "mercenaries" Jonathan hired, which was the game changer?


For the avoidance of doubt, there has been and still is no evidence that Nigeria hired "mercenaries" who "changed the game" for us. Colonel Eeben Barlow the chairman of sttep and a regular beegeagles blogger has refuted this ridiculous claim on many occasions.


All missions were carried out primarily by the Nigerian Army, led by the Nigerian Army MSF.

Your posts hints to the fact that your somehow affiliated to Beegeagle's Blog... If that's true then I do say you haven't lived up to the set standards.

You're right that we do not have a zero airforce... But the question is "are we were we should be?" obviously not this is a far cry from were we should be. The equipment the airforce operates gives Nigeria a bad. Our boys are trying their best... But we need them well armed.
I wonder what you'd say tomorrow if Chad decided to declare war against Nigeria... The airforce is capable of defending our sovereignty? No sir. Our air security must be stepped up. Anything less is treason.

well I know were you driving @ but I won't duel into all that craps! Have pass the info here, something will be done about it period, you will come here and thank me later

I find this thread very distasteful and Somewhat annoying... I have only met a handful of people as patriotic as I am let alone more patriotic that I am.
Patriotism however should NEVER blind us to the flaws of our nation lest we fail bitterly.
The acquisition of this birds may be celebrated in some quarters, its all good celebrate but not too long nor loud. Because the truth is we as a nation deserve more... A nation as rich in terms of resources and enemies, and important as Nigeria shouldn't have such a low grade airforce. Armed Super Pumas, Alpha jets, F7s... Good God, they may as well surrender our country in advance to a foreign power.

In the words of a wise man... Oga Beegs. "The time of peace is the best time to prepare for war". And Nigeria is far from ready for a conventional war.

Our biggest flaw is measuring our capabilities with the likes of Cameroon, Ghana, Togo, Mali and Co. I respect these countries but we are simply not in the same security class. Nigeria is a leading African Power House, we should be compared with power houses from other continents.

Our politicians have corrupted and crippled our military with the aid of their cronies.
The sooner we realize that WE HAVEN'T FALLEN, we wouldn't see the reason to rise... After all there is no wisdom in fixing what isn't broken.

All said acquisitions should be problem... Truth is we were reaped off. #Sad reality.

Good Bless Nigeria.

Henry120:
But, what was NAF like, before Jonathan took over?

-Under Jonathan, Nigeria placed orders for 9 MI-35M and 12 MI-171SH Helicopters.

-Under Jonathan, Nigeria received 2 up-graded MI-35 Helicopters from Ukraine.

-Under Jonathan, Nigeria Placed orders for 12 MI-35 Helicopters from Belarus.

- Under Jonathan Nigeria has received over 14 Light utility Helicopters.

- Under Jonathan Nigeria took delivery of 10 CH-3A drones from China. We are one of the very few countries to use armed Drones anywhere in the world.

- Under Jonathan Nigeria got 5 indigenous drones

- under Jonathan Nigeria got multiple tactical drones.


Under Jonathan, Nigeria has received or placed orders 59 Helicopters.


Again, what was the state of the Air Force before Jonathan?

salam1:

donvicky2007:
All this artilleries are good but they aren't new to my view cox everyone keep posting the same type of machines of our armed forces. Pls we need modernized weapons as African SuperPower not all this outdated machines used during the second world war.

Nadheer15:
Yes he did, but when did he buy them?

Nadheer15:
This OP is getting everything wrong, with all this hardwares, why did we lose more than 13,000lives? GEJ only woke up 6weeks to elections and that's when Nigeria acquired all this. Remember boko-are-rams menace started in 2009,even the documentary you presented was in 2015. If them born Vice News well, them for go Bornu State 2012 or 2013.

Buhari and APC were lamenting about GEJ's inability to tackle boko-are-rams until elections, that doesn't make sense. No doubt the Military hardwares were bought, but why 6 weeks to elections?!

bankoleben:
Is that all you can say to what I said?

BabyDaddy20:
The only thing i learnt in this world is that you can't please everyone.
With what Barack Obama did for America he still has a lot of haters.

We knew how our military equipments were before Jonathan bought & sufficicated our war equipments.
How many did the last 3 presidents buy ??
Let's wait & see how many Buhari will buy.

bankoleben:
The game changer before the election was the hiring of South African mercenaries and not necessarily the purchase of new arms.
GEJ had over four years to equip the military, why wait till six weeks before election?

Reptyle:
Ok hold it bros. Those jets are Alpha jets and the NAF has had them like forever. Those weren't procured by the GEJ administration.

GEJ's government indeed procured some choppers for the NAF as stated by the former NSA. He also procured some tanks and such other hardware. The navy also got a look in with the delivery of 2 ships donated to us by the Americans. Then there were 2 or so locally built gunboats for the NN also.

Still far from desirable given Nigeria's global status...but definitely not "Zero"

Whynotthetruth:
Add source of some info...and call lalasticlala again...

patrickmuf:
Even djibouti can boast of military hardwares, what you accomplish with your hardware is all that counts...And yes, for a country like Nigeria what we have here though a tad impressive is still some way off what is obtainable elsewhere...
zero military capability was used to highlight the magnitude of our problem... i see you guys are already doing what you did with the 'Virtually' empty treasury quote, spread half truths, twist logic etc all targeted at deceiving the not not so informed amongst us...

You guys need to get yourselves organised in order to put across effectively your opinion of the government's policies
