He's a rare gem.

One of the few people who give us hope of a better Nigeria.

Dear youth, take cue from Prof Ishaq Oloyede and his likes. Do not divert government funds and personnel to your personal, family or religious projects and institutions.

Edit: after writing my comment, I revisited this thread. Why? I was almost certain that one negative pessimist will come here to utter crap.

Behold! I wasn't disappointed.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, a bigoted pessimist:



Wow, a breathtaking display of negativity. Please give her it a round of applause.

1) 2Lt basic pay is 160k; Lt 180k. Aside operational allowances.
2) Free cars? Who dash monkey banana?
They do have access to car loans sha, but many prefer to go the tokunbo route unless your papa get money before you join army work. If you go collect loan go buy Benz toor you fit reach Major you never pay finish.
3) Depends on where you are posted to. Places like Abuja have accommodation issues, but as newly commissioned officers una go dey share apartment amongst una sef, army no send una oo, the situation wan resemble hussling for hostels every academic session back in University days, unless you wan rent house outside barracks but at your own expense.
For me only the air force and navy have excellent accommodation facilities for their officers, na small thing army wan take better pass police.

ugo4u:
Him no know say chances are high that he won't cross Major(that's if he is lucky), when e go Young officers course na that time reality go dawn on him those RC guys go tell them who really owns the army.
As far as they're concerned SSC/DSSC are all fatigue tools.

BuhariAdvocate:
I don't know if the innoson cars is tested one Because i don't see rich people buy it.

spetsnaz:
oops!!! sorry missed that my calc was showing results in exponential form.
But wait oo, the army only budgeted about 14bn for purchase.. This nation is a joke.

spetsnaz:
It will amount to about N1.4bn @360 per dollar. Mind you dollars at CBN is sold for N301; so gov't won't be buying at 360 rather the official inter bank rate.

spetsnaz:
That's not possible. An Apache goes for about $40m per unit.

spetsnaz:
Its quite impressive to see the level of intelligence being displayed by some folks here. It's good for us to keep this discussions on while waiting for the list.
I watched a program last night on TVC(Journalist Hangout) one of the topics discussed was the issue of army calling for procurement of helicopter gunships. What one of the panelists (Babajide) said is exactly what Ugo said on this same platform, that the problem is funding that even the airforce is finding it difficult to maintain its own gunships, that we only have two that is serviceable at present. Honestly, when he was talking I was seriously thinking if Babajide was reading the comments here. Kudos to you guys here, let's keep the conversation going, till those in higher authority especially politicians do the right thing.
The money (5.5bn) National assembly budgeted for cars can buy 36 bell helicopters, the type police use for operations. That same amount can buy 5 Apache helicopters.

ugo4u:
He retired as a middle level officer(Wing Commander) and joined politics.

ugo4u:
Make una go check 2020 budget for army and airforce know how far, awon combat helicopters.
The Army for example only have N14bn to spend on purchases including armoured vehicles, tanks, weapons etc To train just 20 combat pilots and technicians will gulp almost 1bn alone talkmore of purchasing a frontline helicopters that cost roughly $30m per unit. We never begin talk about arming them, mind you, one heat seeking missile cost as much as $30k.

Jafdoc:
Are you aware that the Directorate of Army Aviation already exist?

That they have already ordered for aircraft to be delivered?

It is your kind of thinking that is responsible for the backwardness in Nigeria. If other armies own helicopters then why can't we own helicopters? Air assets are highly essential for army operations. Let them own, they will learn, they will perform.

If America is not giving us Apache now, that doesn't mean we can't get them in the near future. Beside, they are Russian made rotor crafts than can perform as much as Apache
