Which Nigeria is first on the list?
Which kind of weapons are produced there? When we're the weapons produced last?
Who is buying those weapons?
What is the capacity of the their weapons?

I hope OP is not taking about knives and cutlass

Kaduna houses DICON that produces weapons and is still massively under attack. Maybe they are producing the weapons for Boko and Hisbah..

Maybe the weapon they're producing are not physical.

The same experience I have with Nigerian made Politicians

No wonder the useless zoological Republic cannot defeat ordinary boko harm, they arm their soldiers with locally made nonsense to fight with. Spits on Jubrin's bald head
