Did Nigerian engineers copy the Ezugwu drivers view from the Type 07P APC from China?

The Type 07P is used by Cameroon army.

The design.of the vehicle constrains what drivers screen to buy.

This is most certainly off the shelf buy from China. No need to copy. The engine and chassis also chinese I imagine.

This your post makes no sense.

For your information, there has been 2 F-35 crashes.

Probe finds F-35's first crash was caused by manufacturing defect, in revelation that could affect Japan plans to buy aircraft

https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2019/05/12/world/f-35s-first-crash-caused-manufacturing-defect-report/#.Xgj3Ix4o-yU


By your analogy why should any one by the F-35?

Does this make sense to you?

Read my post mindfully. I am not saying they should not buy because a prototype crashed. I am saying they should not buy because the aircraft is still under development as gar as I am concerned.
Algeria should be asking itself how many SU57s have been deployed by Russia itself?. Also what particular threat gap are they trying to close with this acquisition. If it is unstable Libya, then a new air superiority fighter is of no use. If it is the high capabilities acquired by Morocco and Tunisia, then more upgraded versions of SUs and MIGs are the answer.

The F35s is a fully developed aircraft program already in service with more than ten air forces and the two crashes experienced on the aircraft are so well researched as to be almost expected.
Almost every airforce using F35s now knows the locations on the airframe and frequency of inspection to predict the cracks that cause the failures leading to the crashes . That's the difference a well matured development of an aircraft brings

Zooposki:
That is what I saw, but I also saw that it was more targeted at the Presidency and the Hausa/Fulani soldiers. The masses won the war.

This is the low mind, low IQ wishful thinking mindset that makes most prophecies a scam in this country.
In your emptiness you see the God of all creation as a SE Nigerian.
Nigeria is not a joke, it is just that most Nigerians cant think because of a soft materialistic attitude to life

Pep Guardiola has built a team on the principle of fast attack. Well practised runs into opponents 18 yard box with dexterous attackers.

This is NO MORE working. Other teams are no more awed by it.

The team is vulnerable to counter attacks and now have the worst defenders in the EPL.

kabe1:
Algeria has a brilliant military.

This is one of the most EXTRAORDINARY wastes of resources by a modern third world country.

Why would a country of intelligent professional defence planners buy this unproven capabilty?
One prototype just crashed in Russia for instance. I suspect as in most Arab countries that Algeria is compensating for a fight-less military doctrinal culture by throwing money into hardware

kabe1:
Although still early days, the JF-17 Block 3 hasn't lived up to the hype.

No new engine

No new hard points

No increased fuel capacity

With AESA, it can only be rated slightly above the F-16 Block 52.

The JF-17 is clearly not enough to meet our future threats.

We really need to stop at 3 units, instead consider the MIG-35, SU-35, J-10C for our future air needs.

The Tucanos and Attack Helicopters can fulfill our COIN needs.

This is not final prototype version for JF17 Block 3. AESA radar is coming, IRST is coming, capability for 100km+ PL 15 missile is coming. I like that there is no pretension to stealth capability but there will be some radar absorbing paint and radar jamming gear. The only stealth technology working is American. Any other claim is a scam.


As for Block 2 we should by 1 squadron and inflight refuelling aircraft.
In order to compensate for JF17 Block 2 inadequacies, we should buy cheap AEW/mini AWACS system and practice frequently to develop capability for air operations aerial control, radar jamming and beam riding long range missile launching.

I support just 3 pieces of MIG 35 kept at 100% operational availability by 2023 expanded to half a squadron by 2025.

And yes, lots of helicopters. 50 pieces at least of the latest MI 35M.

GidiWoodsMan:
Exactly.

No lessons here except that Ivara Esu is a greedy and an insatiable human being without a shred of personal dignity. Same qualities apply to the governor too...

Correctly put.
The Iva Esu should be nominating his boy to be deputy to Ayade not taking the post. He obviously did it for pecuniary reasons.
Ayade himself should probably have stepped down for the older man

panafrican:
The Ottoman empire cannot distract Africans because they know it wants to come back to life from its ashes like an hydra.

This guy (Erdogan) is so interested in Turkish resurgence, he should be watched closely. Unfortunately with UK out of EU, they would be forced to lower criteria and admit Turkey. That would be interesting because all Turkey cares about is its own national greatness.

AtikuMeansJobs:
Nigeria is not rich. What Nigeria really needs now is to expand its economic base, we need to have more than 10 solid sectors firing all cylinders, i mean sectors that can employ a lot of people, instead of oil being d mainstay of our economy, build infrastructures from revenues from oil while building other sectors, invest in technical education, cut senators wage.... and we'll be alright.

Let me introduce you to service sector and its job growing potential.
When Lagos completes all its rail lines. Lagos would have completed the tourism corridor roads in Lekki.
Part of the rail network connects Fela's shrine, Ikeja GRA and potential tourist sites in Alausa.
Religious tourist destination at redeemed camp. There is a rail line shooting off towards Badagry with slavery heritage sites

I have just painted a conservative $10bn annual business for Lagos from tourism alone

wink2015:
WHAT OF EX-PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN WHO FAILED TO COMPLETE THE EAST WEST ROAD THAT EVEN CONNECT HIS NATIVE BAYELSA STATE.

HE WAS BUSY WITH THE PLEASURE OF HIS OFFICE UNTIL THE TRICKISH HAUSA/FULANI ALIGNED WITH THE SOUTH WEST TO KICK HIS ASS FROM ASO ROCK VILLA.

For close to 6 years, ex-president Jonathan did not know what to do with power.

He was a confused person with so much money he was controlling at the federal level.

Now NDDC TREASURY has been emptied with the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari ( rtd ) ordering a forensic audit to find out details of the looting.

Jonathan was BIG mistake. Unfortunately he was always destined to be President which makes his case even more pathetic. We answer for these things and your foolish supporters on earth won't be there

It is not Buhari 's job to divide Nigeria. In fact he was elected to keep Nigeria one. Let this old coward stop singing a tune that will never be part of any song.
God does not want Nigeria broken up and it wont happen.
For those getting excited about the unlikely prospect of Nigeria's break up, let me leave you with this thought -think about Nigerias problems now, multiply it by 5, add anarchy, add insecurity, add even more injustice and you wont even be approaching the level of misery that will happen. You guys better stop all the nonsense.

Nigeria is going to.make the same money from the new deep offshore and inland basin act 2019 ( $500m for 2019 and $1.4 bn yearly subsequently) so why sell the stakes in the JVs?.
Buhari is one of the most patriotic Nigerian Presidents ever. I say this with high sense of responsibility.
Nigeria also seems to have some healthier revenue projections from VAT and possibly income tax so again why sell?

lov at:
I thought the idiotic buhari said BH has been defeated

There is a difference between Boko rampaging through territory and Boko Haram controlling territory.
Even in Lagos State, there are places very far from the reach of law enforcement but that does not mean that LASG is not in control of 100% of Lagos.

Boko Haram remains technically defeated but they can scurry around and still attack civilians and weakly defended military formations.

We need to properlybunderstand what is called an insurgency.

overdrive:
The woman should be arrested alone.

You dont just understand do you?. They are both guilty of child trafficking l. It appears living in Nigeria too long is affecting peoples mentality.
Dont ever take a housegirl below 18.
If you employ a house help, do verification, sign an employment contract, pay him/her regularly, provide medical, provide annual vacation and deduct tax for govt.

My country people are sick. They just dont get it.

Richdad50:


Many folks do not know that before the rise of Boko Haram in 2010, Islam was a minority religion in Borno State. They have succeeded in exterminating a sizable number of Christian population and communities. He should fold his wishes.

Richdad

The highest estimates for people killed by Boko Haram is less than 40,000. Borno population is more than 3 million.
How come about this fake figure of christian population extermination?

When you do this cheap, parochial political christianity and couch the problem in us versus them, telling cheap lies you are actually aggravating the problem. Boko Haram has killed more muslims than Christians. That's the truth that the world knows.

This Buhari regime is toooooo much.
This is huge.
We now need foundries and a flat sheet plant somewhere and its almost 90% value added to most basic industry.

denko:
Because the government sold a dummy to you guys that he stole arms money

He stole arms money on instructions of GEJ. If they jail GEJ I know you will die of depression

This is 100% correct by FFK. I had actually being wondering why he waited till just now to reveal this truth to his usually half informed young supporters.

His dad was well known in Yoruba land for this richly diverse pedigree.

So sad that Remi Fani Kayodes second son is now a scared, narrow world view, parochial tribalist.

PapaBaby:
[s][/s]

But why is his junior sister 84yrs?

The story that Buhari 's younger sister is 84 years old is sweet if you have a 'weak ' mind but it is FALSE.

It is pitiful to build lies on lies and be thrilled by it. SAD.

Buhari was not 33 years during the civil war. Maybe you guys are actually tribally inferior to Fulanis if you have to tell lies so much.
Many people including myself have worked this out.
The man joined the military at 16. He could not have been more than 22 to 24 during the civil war. Even Gowon, the boss of Buhari's bosses was just early 30s in 1969.

Buhari 's current age is accurate if you are reasoning properly and not allowing Nigerias defective educational system that has bred so many sentiment-induced thinkers to fine to the fore.

The 84 years of age that guys have invented for Buhari's younger sister just goes to reinforce that this inferior generation of internet scanners and runs girls really deserve prayers.

Buhari has shown Nigerians his classmates many times.
Some became ranking judges in Nigeria.
His best frienf, school mate and contemporary was General Musa Yaradua. When Yaradua was given triple promotion to become No 2 in Nigeria, second to OBJ, he was in his late 30s to early 40s.
Please use calculator, tell yourself you are too big to lie to yourself and do some calculations.

I personally will begin to insult your family and tribe for every lie you post.

Telling lies means that the guy you are telling lies against is much better than you and lying is the only way you can assuage your feeling of inferiority and jealousy .
It also cheapens the liar

YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME.
You think only PDP supporters have a monopoly of anarchy OR supporters to demonstrate?
Get real.
There is only one man who pulls the greatest crowds in Nigeria. Buhari.

All these urban middle class rallies are kid stuff and you have no idea what power you are unleashing. It is stupid

Go and do anti Brexit rally in the UK or anti Putin rally in Moscow. Actually go and try anti Erdogan rally in Istanbul.
They will take you out! !!
Trump is POTUS now and there are some states in the US you dont go and demonstrate against him.
I dont like Trump but I face the hard facts that he has die hard supporters.

You are absolutely not using your brains when you think popularly elected governments can be rattled by urban protests.

Deji Adeyanju looks and acts very stupid. Who told you Buhari is heading an unpopular government? .
Deceiving yourself.

I suggest DSS should adopt this strategy against future demonstrations. When organizers start to see that there are two sides to one coin. There us anti thesis to every thesis, maybe they will learn that the majority is usually silent.

I have seen major demonstrations on four continents and it is always opposing sides on the left and right ...carryings placards FOR and AGAINST a government or issue. There is no such thing anymore as the tidy, old fashioned, oppressed versus the oppressor demonstrations.

Get real and get fortified. There is another side to every story

Why.travel this period and in this weather with young and old for chrissakes?smh

This is one of the brightest stars in the army. Possible some superiors were involved. Using his US bank account to move funds. NA is not buying so much from the US

Housegirl-ism and houseboy-ism is the height of social abuse.
Most middle class Nigerians from the south actively support this nonsense. They even see it as status symbol, this modern slavery social system that is a product of poverty.
The same shameless idxxts would smugly condemn Almajiri-ism in the North whilst actively benefiting / encouraging emotion-wrenching forced separation of minors from their families.

Nigeria is the most bullshitty and spiritually/intellectually dishonest country in the world.

How many of our wives are qualified to be bringing up other peoples kids?
We are playing with fire in this country in all aspects of national life and when people talk about restructuring I rain insults upon them.

You guys are not serious. You dont even know where to start from.

Bringing minors from the middle belt into your home through a racketeer.
No indication of emotional, spiritual background of the people which is also dangerous for your own family esp your kids .
Playing God in the life of another human being. No social regulation.
Very wicked and unserious country

This is the blunt truth that Sowore fans have not faced honestly. Nation states do secret things for their security.
You have to be a dunce to go and be formenting an insurrection in this age of terrorism. You will learn the hard way that its not just a few misguided young muslims that can be picked up for terrorism. You Sowore fans, if you like dont learn. You will be shocked - the first thing the world wants from Buhari is regional security. The next one is anti corruption war.
I an sorry to bust bubbles but that is the truth. The western world knows that terrorists and looters are exploiting gaps in the procedutes oit in place to protect rule of law and they wont blame Buhari too much if he takes people out.

The boss of Buhari 's boss's boss in the late 60s.

Yes but young people are completely empty in Nigeria. Hollow shells, carcasses just moving about without a core. The highest philosophy some have is money and ethnicity.
It is a shame. I have stopped having pity for this generation of unemployment and restricted opportunities. The way they reading, they deserve it

AyoII:
The truth is all the news on CNN and Co. Are just what i will call "Craps"
Thats how he was attacked then in 2016.
But if you take your time back then to conduct some research on non mainstream "genuine" medias. You will find out he will win back then.
Its time we stop believing everything on CNN anf Co.
There are other great medias out there.

There is Fox News.
Fox news does more propaganda than CNN but it is shocking that they are not doing more than they are doing on this issue. Everyone is growing cold on Trump because the man is an amateur on.the job and a crook.

Sammiejokes:
I did not see corruption in the articles of impeachment. the last time I checked trump won the election and he is winning in 2020. Trump thrives when you attack him. if he can win in 2016, 2020 is almost in the bag. you need to accept reality. Boris won here in UK even when you see people attack him. Election is not won on CNN or democrat district.

Trump did not win any election. He won more electors than his opponent, an unpopular woman even within the democratic party.

TRUMP LOST THE ELECTIONS BY 11m votes not just the 3m votes that Hilary Clinton had above him.

Now he is even weaker than he was in 2015. He has quarrelled with and lost ALL high profile people he appointed.
All his associates are in.jail. He is perceived as a dummy puppet of an outside foreign power Putin. Russia and China are perhaps the only countries pointing nuclear missiles at the US and the current POTUS is perceived as a puppet to them. It is BAD.

Pelosi now holds the power. She can choose when to send the articles of impeachment. I think she will delay it whilst releasing more evidence to the media. The elections are in November l. She probably should release the documents to the Senate as close to the elections or even after depending on what the democrats feel is the most damaging time fie Trump or deny him a second term if he wins tue elections.

MelesZenawi:
I used to tell people that liberalism is a sign of mental disorder.


A Democrats dominated house of Representatives Impeached president Trump and now wants a Senate dominated Republicans to also do so.

Imagine Pelosi saying "we hope they will be fair to us"........Was she fair to Trump.

Republicans should rubbish those articles when finally Pelosi got the nerves to send them.


In McConnell's voice "I am in no hurry"

They are playing this for the most maximum effect on November elections and least negative effect on democratic party

TheAviator:
This is 100% incorrect. The house impeaching him does not prohibit him from re-contesting in 2020. Please go and find out. What could prevent him is if the Senate bars him. Trump will re-contest in 2020 and he will win.

Why would the US Senate not bar him?. You think they love him?
You think Mitt Romney, Cruz or Mario dont want to be Prez?. You guys are just building up this idiot for what he is not.

Mind you, it is a senate trial. It is not a debate. There will be more evidence, everybody will be sworn to oath. Cameras would be there. Supreme Court justice would be there. History would be recorded.
I think Trump will fall for one of the charges and get banned from public office. Hr will be allowed to finish his term. His relationship with establishment politicians is so bad.
