We never fought a war against Cameroon over Bakassi. We went to court against them and lost.

Like someone told you, a terrorist group invaded Nigeria and not Chad.

Finally, ballistic missiles are extremely expensive weapons to develop. The few countries with ballistic missiles are countries who are equally under the threat of ballistic missile attack. So, they develop it as a kind of balance of terror to deter their enemies from using it against them. It’s the same argument that Iran and North Korea are putting forward to develop nuclear weapons. USA, Russia, China, Israel etc have nukes and some of them are at loggerhead with Iran. So, Iran also needs nuclear weapons to deter Israel and US from ever nuking them.

So you see, Nigeria currently has no threat of ballistic missile attack from any of our neighbors. In fact, no single country in Sub Saharan Africa has ballistic missiles. So, why should we invest billions of dollars into developing ballistic missiles when we are not under any threat of ballistic missile attack? Who do we want to use it to deter?

We are better off spending our meager forex earnings on developing our public infrastructure, health and education system etc. We have absolutely no use for ballistic missiles.

Do you know that Iran warn Nigeria and Qatar about striking US bases, they only targeted Iran based.
This is the reason why we need to be ready for any action, even if we don't plan, we can be pulled into it.

BreconHills:
You can plan for war and NG has planned for war but Nigeria cannot plan for war against a country with ballistic missiles.

You don't plan for highly unlikely events else you get stretched in so many directions and end up having NO plan.

Realism

That's just it

Is there a US military base in Nigeria? What is Nigeria’s annual budget that you want us to waste everything on an air defense system?

They have consulate, embassy in Nigeria,. Those specifically houses American citizens.

Nigeria budget is one of the biggest in Africa comparing to other Africa nations with lower budgets and yet they have air defense.

The point is whether we have plans for war or not, we should be ready always.

agriboom:
This same nigeria that is short of AK47 bullets?

Nigeria that cannot maintain national grid? If they go for nuclear energy, dem go just kpai all of us.

Do we have any neighbors that pose a threat to our existence and requires to be deterred with the threat of a ballistic missile strike?

Your people and being contented with mediocre


Nigeria really need to divide so that each emerging region can go back and build their nation according to their desire and dreams.

It's unfortunate that some people are using their poor dream and vision to be dragging us behind, really sad, sighs

If Nigeria had ballistic missles, it will only be used on Nigerians. Tread carefully

Which African country has an air defence system?

America has a consulate in almost all countries of the world so every country should build an air defense system because Iran wants to attack America citizens?

Balli wetin?

People wey no fit generate beyond 5k megawatt of electricity won do Rocket science.

I guess they thought firewood is used to ignite ballistic missile.

I really don't understand what you are saying because no foreign power has a military base in Nigeria and Nigeria is a non aligned country.

Kemetian:
What a sick catalogue of lies and misrepresentation.

Nigeria’s military ranking in Africa rose just this month to 3rd in Africa, up from 4th, on the Global Military Index.

You do not know Nigeria’s arsenal 1/50th of what they know.

True talk, No country disclose all its full military potentials, Even United States, Russia, China etc will never reveal vital informations to the public. You save the best for the last.
