You must be disillusional if you beleive Nigeria is even top 5.

Currently, Nigeria's military is a shambolic excuse of a fighting force. They are neither well equipped, nor well trained. Standing upside down with a rock on your backside for 5 hours doesn't make you well trained.

Nigeria's army uses taped up rusty AK-47s as their primary fighting tool. The MEND militants are better equipped than the so called army.

The Army lacks proper body armor, many don't even have basic helmets or bullet proof vests.

Discipline, let's not even go there, the Nigerian army's lack of discipline is evident all around.

Without the army fatigues they could easily be mistook for Al Shabab or Congolese militia. They don't have any sense of organization, they can't even march straight. They can't respond to domestic disturbances (Jos, Mend, MASSOB, Kidnappings), let alone any external military threat.

Those rickety pick up trucks that don't look fit to even carry farm animals is what our military get around in.

Nigeria, not even close. "

are u for real? war and miltary power cannot be judged by mend or muslims in jos.
if u want to base you jugdment on those aspect, then answer this question
1, why did russia leave afgan ?
2 what problem did the strongest force in d world face in iraq
3, what are the americans still doing in afgan
dealing with such type of fight is verry difficult because its not convention and some weapons are not allowed to be used,
i agree with S.A as number 1
egppt number 2 and nigeria number 3
lybia i think had but no more good weapons
