The Nigerian army has stepped up its game against the Boko Haram terrorists following recent victories recorded during clearance operations in the northern part of the country. Pictured are brave soldiers loading 155mm artillery shells as "special gifts" to fire towards Boko Haram terrorists position in the northeast as the battle against insurgency continues.

For the first tym since ECOMOG days, I am proud of our Military personnel. Our soldiers also seem happy and motivated.

Even the cerebrally inept and Party pedantic person will acknowledge the difference between the last stealing crew and the new adept team at the helms of affairs at the center.

The below didn't prove your claim to be valid.

– 3 units of JF17 Thunder multirole combat jets

POINTS TO PONDER

* This startup haul of JF17 Block 2 jets is almost certainly a precursor to the main haul of JF17 Block 3

* What are the possible ancillary roles for the Super Mukshak?

*.Nigeria penned a deal for a mixed haul of Mi-35M and Mi-171Sh Terminator helicopters with the Russians in Sept 2014. Does this mark the start of those deliveries or is this a follow-on order?

All delivery of ammunitions were budgeted for and ordered by Jonathan before he left office on 29th May, 2015.

Many sophisticated arms and ammunition ordered by Jonathan still yet to arrive - Ex-NSA Sambo Dasuki

Many sophisticated arms and ammunition ordered by Jonathan still yet to arrive - Ex-NSA Sambo Dasuki


The immediate past National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki(retd.), has said some arms and ammunition, ordered during the government of former President Goodluck Jonathan, have yet to arrive in country.

The former NSA said some elements, whose identities he did not disclose, were frustrating the nation’s efforts to get the critically needed equipment to fight the terror sect, Boko Haram.

Dasuki said these in an interview with PR Nigeria, an Abuja-based media consultancy outfit, consulting for the Nigerian military and security agencies.



According to him, the former government, a a point, queried some arm suppliers for the delay in the supply of the items paid for by the government.

He said some of the equipment procured by the Jonathan administration would arrive the country soon, but was not specific about the time.

“It was unfortunate that some elements are frustrating the efforts as we even had to query some suppliers for the delay in the delivery of arms and ammunition,” Dasuki said.

The former security chief, whose Abuja and Sokoto residences were raided by operatives of the Department of State Services recently, explained that the previous administration acquired a lot of highly sophisticated equipment to fight and reclaim 22 local government areas from the insurgents after years of frustration by some countries.

He listed the items to include “Alpha jets, APCs, MRAP vehicles, advanced artillery pieces, assorted arms and ammunitions, highly sophisticated surveillance drones, T72 and carried out modification of F7 supersonic jet fighters.”

The arms also included armoured tanks with comprehensive NBC protection system, Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles with capacity to withstand explosions, Improvised Explosive Devices and assorted Armoured Personnel Carriers with effective protective system against small arms fire and shrapnel.

He said the equipment were effectively utilised to recover 22 local government areas then under Boko Haram’s control and prevented the Boko Haram from disrupting the 2015 election.

Dasuki added that the security forces were able to use the equipment to prevent the leader of the sect, Abubakar Shekau, from releasing videos of threats against the country.

The below quote is from one of the sources you posted which didn't validate your ascersion that some weapons were procured. Please desist from peddling falsehood, distorting facts and misinforming the public. Thank you.

The Federal Government is proposing to spend N65.03bn for the acquisition of various military aircraft, combat equipment, trucks and maintenance of boats among others in the 2016 fiscal period.

[/b] The Nigerian Air Force has a total budget of N85.61bn, made up of N62.15bn for recurrent expenditure and N23.46bn for capital expenditure.

Giving details of the weapons to be acquired for the operation of the Navy, the fiscal document states that the sum of N5bn is budgeted for the procurement of three JF-17 Thunder-multi role combat aircraft.


Nigeria and Pakistan enjoy good defence relations, with Pakistan training Nigerian officers. Nigeria’s High Commissioner to Pakistan, Malam Dauda Danladi, recently said that 120 officers attended various courses in Pakistan, with 40 currently undergoing training this year.

The JF-17 is jointly produced by the Chengdu Aircraft Industries Corporation (CAC) of China and the Pakistan Air Force and Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC). The Pakistan Air Force has 50 in service and has been flying the type since 2007, although only officially inducting the aircraft in 2010. Pakistan may acquire up to 200

I am sharing with you what is in the public domain as at January 2016. That was when they were expecting the weapons. Some have been delivered and that info is not in the public domain. I can confirm that to you from my military sources. All you see is their impact in the ongoing war in the NE.

Ask yourself this: If all these weapon were procured by GEJ, how come soldiers were absconding from the war front like a pack of cards under his tenure?

Lies, poorly written conjectures, if the weapons were procured as you claimed, it would have been all over the media with Lai Mohammed and his lying crew claiming that it was because of Buhari's body language that made it so. Finally, remember facts are SACRED!!

Like I stated, my contacts in the military are the sources of my advanced knowledge. But you saw evidence that arms were being expected earlier in 2016. It is up to you to believe it or not. It doesn't change what I know. But you can attest to the positive impact in the war theatre. Shalom my brother.

Don't mind the Liars, all weapons delivered so far were ordered by Dasuki but the delivery were delayed.

Dasuki listed the items expected in the coming days to include “Alpha jets, APCs, MRAP vehicles, advanced artillery pieces, assorted arms and ammunitions, highly sophisticated surveillance drones, T72 and carried out modification of F7 supersonic jet fighters.”

The arms also included armoured tanks with comprehensive NBC protection system, Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles with capacity to withstand explosions, Improvised Explosive Devices and assorted Armoured Personnel Carriers with effective protective system against small arms fire and shrapnel.
