President Muhammadu Buhari has looked to Russian President, Vladimir Putin, for much needed military support to combat the resurgent Boko Haram terrorists in the North-East.
Citing a report on Kremlin’s RIA news agency, Reuterssaid PMB will sign a Military Technical Cooperation deal with the eastern European state in the Russian town of Sochi before the end of October.
Nigeria’s ambassador in Russia, Stephen Ogbah, said, “We’re sure that with Russian help we’ll manage to crush Boko Haram given its experience combating Islamic State in Syria.”
The Buhari administration had in 2018 paid $496m for the purchase of two Tucano jets from the United States, which it said would be delivered in 2020.
According to Ogbah, Nigeria is interested in buying Russian helicopters, planes, tanks and other military equipment, adding that a draft version of the deal had already been finalised.
He added, “We hope President Buhari can take the talks to their logical end. The agreement will open new possibilities in such areas as the supply of military equipment and training for specialists.”

If they eventually defeat boko haram what will Nigerian army use to milk Nigeria again?

Russian weapons are usually more rugged and better than their western equivalents. They also come without political considerations.Before now Nigeria are used to Russian MIG warplanes and French Alpha jets which are still in use till date.

I don't know why Nigeria and its people are always keen on anything America , while the Americans never take us seriously.
Even during the civil war , the US , even though busy with Viatnam war, was more on the revel side . while the federal government was aided and supported by the Soviet Union. So history is nearly repeating itself

siding with Russia indirectly sends a wrong signal to USA in a political way.

Just my opinion though

america can go to hell

Yes, Nigeria is beginning to work as the global capital of extreme poverty and a resurgent Boko Haram.
The dullard is cursed with supporters who are as dumb and visionless as he is.

Tell me one sector that has improved since 2015
Or u think your people are in power then its better

No! I don't understand o. I thought these Boko Haram has been defeated technically and technically been defeated! Then why looking up to Russia military. For what again?

Nigerian Military only has strength on innocent Nigerians.

Python dance, Crocodile Smile all these tactical code names for innocent Nigerians in SS and SE but face the real enemies up North, they would shy away.

Cowards

Ok

Sure fix games

Ok sir

Position burutai and all the army generals at the war front and watch bokoharam eliminated in weeks.

Because they wont be there without proper amenities and equipments being properly provided aswell as fighter jets to assist the fight. And anyone who tries to sabotage their funding or fight in favour of the terrorists would be shot at sight.

He should just turn to Jim Kong (whatever his name is) of north Korea instead.

ok

Buhari dae vex o.

Who else noticed that ever since that lifeless comment from Trump Buhari has totally shunned the Usa

Goodluck, Mr President.
