Egypt has the strongest military in Africa, followed by Algeria then Morocco.

After these 3, you have regional powers, Nigeria in west-africa, South-Africa in the Southern region and Ethiopia in the East African region.
Seconded.

What exactly is debatable about it? I think it's a rather well rounded opinion.

Nigeria has the strongest military in Africa. The Second is Ethiopia. Nigeria is a regional power and hegemon. Hegemon covers Africa, not just West Africa.

History and facts support it. Not shiny weapons in open desert terrain. ... and we have been through this topic in the past. I remember it was with this topic that I joined this thread. And I raised issues about Egypt, including their over 15 defeats in war, their dependence on the Nile river, whose dam now threatens their very existence. As always, insults flowed back then.

Pease, no point debating it afresh. This is based on established facts, not shiny weapons.

Don't bother to argue,,, lets agree to disagree.

Nigeria & Ethiopia are the dominant military powers on the continent and are the two most populous black countries, both still undefeated in war. No North African country can defeat Ethiopia, let alone Nigeria.

Disappears.....

Thanks for the post. Well, I don't think it's a VETO problem, they could get Chinese subs. I think it's more of a strategy issue.

They are cameras used on motorways and express roads. Hung from above, they take pics of moving cars. Some even have ANPR functionality.

These cameras are not CCTV cameras but license plate verification cameras.
They were removed to prevent vandalization after the curfew was announced.

SSBN, Defense news Nigeria


Bro, I appreciate you're trying to show Nigeria in a positive light on twitter.

However it is disingenuous to always post unverified content, it's fraudulent to do that, and reinforces the false stereotype that some Nigerians are untrustworthy.

Come on bro, you have a large following on twitter, please stop misinforming people.

Please delete that list of weapons you posted.

Today we have all borne witness and seen the destructive power of fake news.

A couple weeks back i mentioned that SSBN/Defense news Nigeria posting false information on twitter is a national security risk.

This week, events unconnected with SSBN/Defense News Nigeria, have played out, and the result has been people dead, properties destroyed across many Nigerian cities, curfew in place and a Nation on it's knees.

All because some people raised tension through unverified reportage on social media, amplified by the silence of the people in government.


I beg of us all, let us verify our posts before sharing on social media.

Don't post content here or on any social media capable of inciting violence and civil unrest.

God Bless Nigeria.
