Why don't we go for the Mi28?

Nigeria won't buy the sanctions vulnerable Turkish helicopter or the untidily developed Indian Chopper that cannot be supported with enough spares and maintenance. They will use a phantom airbus chopper acquisition to flash the Americans.
Eventually they will buy US made AH1Zs

Ole has damaged the team. New players are now playing new positions.

We need chopper but not cobras, it's too expensive.

The package is for 12 choppers, maybe 28 engines, Honeywell navigation avionics, lots of armaments and lifetime support. It is a super deal. One good combat helicopter is better than 15MBTs. Our deal is cheaper than what other countries got.

The alternative is MI28NE which is $480m without weapons, extra engines, maintenence support and Russians don't have APKWS.
We are getting 2000 APKWS with the cobras.

SuperSixSeven:


I believe the choppers would be for the NA Air Corp. The NAF like most Air Forces might not be too much interested in operating Combat helicopters at all. I would not be surprised if the NAF never going to get a full squadron of M-35.

İ agree. It is not airforce's work to be flying choppers anywhere this modern era.

youghs:


That helicopter sale rumor is total BS. There's no way Nigeria is going to pay $800m for 12 cobra when it's not that they are mad

* We are expecting 7 mi-35 not 6. Since ajuri said it is to be delivered before the end of the year then it means it is still in the works.

Cobra helicopter procurement is not rubbish. Nigeria has been presenting the request since GEJ era. PMB administration is rə presenting it again. Nigeria has the cash to pay for 12 Cobras over 2 years at N330bn.
Choppers are needed for Nigeria's peculiar security situation and we can't depend on a single supplier, Russia.
The Cobras last very long and they have long airframe fatigueife

There is absolutely nothing wrong in a counter protests. All protests in the world have counter protests - BLM in the US, protests in Hong Kong, Myanmar, etc.
To suggest that my own protest should take place without counter protest is childish. And yes a lot of EndSARS people are childish in their world view.

In a democracy, sitting governments have a "silent majority" of supporters for good or bad...it does not matter.

When some of us wrote against illegal refineries, some uneducated folks gave us the "our oil" response.
This country is in "stupid and uneducated" domain. Personally I would be insulting anyone asking government to do anything. It is your oil, let your kids choke on it.

Valwezzy:
Is it that this government doesn't know about this popular primary school idiomatic expression “those who go a-borrowing, go a-sorrowing...whether shortly or the eventual future, that debt is going to have to be repaid.

You keep borrowing with nothing to show for it.

How do they plan on repaying all these borrowing/debts?

Very idiotic post. All.. (not some) economic entities borrow. The fact that you are in business or earning a salary is because either you, an employer, a customer was able to bridge his operations in spite of the fact that some of his customers have not paid. All the advanced countries Nigerians run to are at above 90% of GDP debt levels. China from whom Nigeria is borrowing a lot from for infrastructure is itself owing $7Tr ($7000bn).

Borrowing is why you can keep money in a bank and expect the value to increase, stay constant or at least not depreciate too much.

Nigeria's debt per capita is less than $300. That is very little money to be paid over ten years for railways, airports, roads, bridges and power unless you want to go back to village life, chewing stick and drinking paimwine debt free

The system I even worked on was used for live reporting of the A29s it was connected 24/7...

I no need argue come to NAF BASE Kainji..

My friend, you are supposed to understand that not all information should be released on social media.
Let us be mature and professional in all our dealings. Some info are classified. Please stop abusing your security clearance.

If these institutions really want to help the Nigerian people they should help us divide the country. That’s what the progressives want

They should stop these misleading and experimental advises

Nigeria should not be divided. Cannot be divided

Are you normal? You did not hear that the communities punctured the Nember trunk line?. This well leak is merely an extension of the vandalism to collect pollution money. Aiteo's competitors may also be likely suspects.

Osinbajo will win Rivers, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom. The dynamics are completely different with Osinbajo

This man, a former External Affairs Minister has no Johnson in his name.

The next presidential general election is just 15 months away. Who are your First and Second Choice for President?

Here are my Picks:

First Choice: Akinwumi Adesina

Second Choice: Udom Emmanuel

Adesina NO
Udom Yes if he joins APC.

This is exactly why if you dare another violent #EndSARS protest necessitating use of the Army anywhere in Nigeria, we the citizens will stone you in the streets.
You are working for Boko Haram.
You want terrorists to over run the country.

Any protests that is not done with for thought and good mob control should have the organizers been liable for damages or manslaughter in the case of fatality

What is good governance? Nigerians are crooked and hateful of each other. They will get crooked and hateful governance.

The protesters should not have been there anyway so the leaders of the protests are also guilty.

It is only low IQ people who think Nigerians are good and their government is bad.

optimusprime2:
The day the country gets good Governance, is the day controversies will end...

Just imagine how the FG has declared that Green Grass is purple and the masses mostly agree that; Yes indeed! Green Grass is purple... (oppression)

There are even some who can't say Green Grass is Green because they don't trust their visual and perception faculties anymore due to FG and other factors, they are genuinely confused... (Confusion)

There are those who don't even care about Green Grass being any colour, because it won't feed them...(unpatriotism)

Then the one's who maintain that Green Grass is actually Green, are subjected to persecution or live in fear...(Fear)

Now that's a country... SMH

The Driver of a MRAP carrying a Brigadier General will deliberately Ram into a terrorist MRAP?

Yes. If there was little ammo and they were shooting at his own MRAP.

That's idiotic. You don't know, yet you are contributing to a topic you don't know. Nigeria already has many MI35Ps.

So herdsmen are bandits now or what issues don't you actually understand?

Some of you guys are incapable of thinking.
The NA is increasingly being called into internal security duties because you are a rich beautiful country of corrupt, idiotic and selfish people who cannot engage in politics, sharing of power and business without cheating yourselves.
You also have no love for yourselves and you have a crappy police.
Your police is crap because your all crooks.

Look at you casting aspersions on the Army as if people join the NA to whip people or kill civillians.
If you actually think the above is true, please check yourself into an asylum.

Dastardly armed robberies, inter communuals wars, bank robberies by and other violent crimes was why all states now have NA involved in internal security duties.
Better show some gratitude and respect.
Without them, you guys are so depraved, you will be snatching babies and pounding them... oh sorry, you are actually doing that now.

I think we should seek ammendment to the Army Act and remove IS duties from what the President can call the Army out for.

GabrielYulaw:
Hi all! Here are my thoughts. But first, where's Bidexii?
Me and him no agree on much, but this na his thread. Did the guy mount a 122mm rocket that was fired to the heavens? Or is he on a hush-hush commando mission? Would love to know.

On a serious note, I'm afraid that regardless of what the EndSars panel said, nothing will change within the NA. No one will be punished, no real reforms will be implemented. And something like this will keep happening again and again.

The NA is dysfunctional for a purpose and making it a fully disciplined and professional fighting force is not something I see happening soon. It's more like a collection of rogues than an army. But I'm really happy to know there are shining lights here and there that are not like the typical Nigerian soldiers/commanders.

You know, we are Nigeria. We suppose be the giant of Africa. When we cough, neighboring countries suppose p1ss themselves in fear. When we blink they suppose cry for their mama.

And what do we have now? Chadian and Cameroonian troops can saunter into our country anytime they want, kill our countrymen and say they were suspected Boko Haram fighters. Governments like Ghana can go on national tv and insult us. Ivorian authorities can confidently frame up a girl for a crime she no commit and get her killed in jail.

We are so massively disrespected on this continent. We are the butt of jokes and it's not even funny. There's only one way we can change this and that's to start living up to our potential.

It will involve modernizing our security agencies, our economy, our way of life and everything else. But is that going to happen? Not at all because the way Nigeria is set up right now is super profitable to the elites. There will be no change. And we will keep being treated like scum across much of Africa.


And there's another thing. EndSars and the Lekki massacre was special. I'm not sure some of you noticed, but there was a very massive and skilled disinformation campaign just after the Lekki massacre.

I have never seen something as skilled happening in this country and I don't think this disinformation campaign was run by Nigerians. And the goal was a simple one- to make us doubt what we saw that night and to provide ammunition for doubters like that Askia guy to come here and say the whole thing was a hoarse.

Who was behind this wide scale deception? Who paid for it? It's important we find out and fast because I fear something like this will be repeated again, perhaps during the 2023 election.


Some of you come here and see me wailing always, criticizing and gnashing my teeth and think I'm just a chronic complainer. That's not true. I love my country. It's beautiful and magnificent.

We can easily rule Africa and we have the brains and resources to make that happen. And it just tears me apart to see the depths we keep sinking to as a people and as a country.

Talk true, is Nigeria a fit place to live and raise children? For me the answer is no and I will keep doing my best to change this and make this a country we all can be proud of.

My apologies for the long epistle.

Justice is all Nigerians are asking for and justice they must get else we wont make any progress as a nation. In this same Endsars protest we saw videos of middle level officers particularly Majors in the army disarm and de-escalate angry mobs w/o firing a single gunshot infact the Major that was in charge of the NYSC camp in kogi literally stopped his soldiers from firing into the crowd that wanted to loot the stuffs made for corpers he appealed to the mob and made them see reasons why they shouldn't steal what belongs to their brothers/sisters that came for service, similar scenario occurred in Osun state were we saw another army Major engage an irate mob and within 10min he deescalated an already tensed atmosphere also not forgetting the Senior NAF officer captured on camera warning police officers to stop firing at the mob so he could engage them. These is to tell you that the military have alot of good men that know the sanctity of human lives and the huge responsibility that comes with wearing the uniform, what makes you a good soldier is the ability to carryout your objectiuve with as minimal casualties as possible infact if you can disarm your enemy w/o firing a shot the better. To those set of officers we will always praise and commend them but you see those bad eggs that perpetrate criminalities we must call them out it doesn't mean we aren't patriotic we all want a sane society not a banana republic were anybody can misbehave because he or she have access to a rifle, virtually everyone can pull a trigger people at the helm of affairs should try as much as possible not to push the citizens to the wall because when all hell breaks lose simultaneously all over the country the result will be worst than a zombie apocalypse.

Yes. I personally must apologize to EndSARS heroes. I and many other people never knew the police washed down the scene of the protests and wiped down the scene of the crimes as it were.
We must also apologize to DJ Switch for all her suffering.

However, if another EndSARS were to repeat itself in this country, you may be shocked that society has finite patience. A word is enough for the wise.
