I like the idea he presented. Would you guys be cool with AFRICOM doing this? America makes more weapons sales while Nigeria curtails the illegal fishing and piracy going on it its water. Currently Gulf of Guinea does suffer unregulated fishing by Chinese fishers. It would reduce of fish imports, boast tax revenue, increase employment and increase food supply. The only question is how effective was the program in 1978 for those nations? Nigeria should explore its options with US, Russia and China to get best deals. Currently Trump wants to counter China's influence in the continent. Russia still trying to get in the game. I only know them for weapons sales and offering to build nuclear plants. |

tsdarkside: Your comment makes zero sense try reading before commenting next time. This isnt different different from Nigeria buying Super Tucano jets from America. He's only suggesting USA sells patrol boats and pressure other countries to stop fishing subsidies. I dont get why your type gets so emotionally charged over ordinary polices. The U.S. Coast Guard helped train and equip these governments to enforce fishing restrictions. These were not complex operations: Each country’s navy had two patrol boats and two surveillance aircraft used to search for and confront illegal fishing boats. Washington ought to pressure foreign governments to end these subsidies. |

Blue3k2: and you cant do that yourselves....?? sink anything that has no right to fish in your sea borders....!! you have the ships,you even build boats sef....you have no excuse to dont do it yourselves.... |
Re: AFRICOM Can Make Fishing Fair For Nations In Its AOR - Opinion by Blue3k2: 5:28am On Aug 09, 2019 |
tsdarkside: It seems youre ignorant about the topic in general. Its not the boat that's the equipment inside the boat that special. The navy currently struggling to curtail piracy and Illegal fishing on water. Adding more patrol boats from United states would be helpful boast. If Nigeria was able to go it alone it would have highest incidence of piracy in region. Great plan sink let me alert navy of genius policy. Nigeria produces how many naval ships a year? Why not add the surveillance aircrafts to your build it yourself mantra. It's clearly not enough and would be easier to buy while building up capacity in mean time. The U.S. Coast Guard helped train and equip these governments to enforce fishing restrictions. These were not complex operations: Each country’s navy had two patrol boats and two surveillance aircraft used to search for and confront illegal fishing boats. |

Blue3k2: and you seem to dont understand what am sayin.... you have the capacity to build this things yourselves.... what what....?? you want to hunt pirates with submarines and battleships....?? |
Re: AFRICOM Can Make Fishing Fair For Nations In Its AOR - Opinion by Blue3k2: 6:23am On Aug 09, 2019 |
tsdarkside: No I don't get your point since it doesn't make sense. Nigeria also has the capacity to manufacture bullets but thst didnt stop the country from importing them from Europe. Why are you against it for boats. Again what about the surveillance helicopters are you planning on ignoring that one?. I didn't mention submarines and battleships so why ask. You're telling me there's this capacity yet the country is has the highest piracy in region and suffering from illegal fishing.. |

Blue3k2: i dont understand you,you dont understand me....even your amelika that you think can do no wrong is importing bullets.... its called over demand.... i understand were you are arguing from.... you think nigeria doesnt produce bullets,drones and other stuffs....whats not true.... |
Re: AFRICOM Can Make Fishing Fair For Nations In Its AOR - Opinion by tsdarkside(m): 6:47am On Aug 09, 2019 |
Blue3k2: then why do you need amelika to battle pirates....?? oo my...pirates are your least problems.... you have problems comin your way that will make you tremble for fear.... |
Re: AFRICOM Can Make Fishing Fair For Nations In Its AOR - Opinion by Blue3k2: 6:56am On Aug 09, 2019 |
tsdarkside: Your arguements are turning more nonsensical. Argue points I bring up not strawmen. You're the one claiming it's wrong to import since we have capacity. Stop lying it isnt just over demand it undercapcity and failure of DICON over the decades. I never claimed Nigeria doesn't make anything btw. Comparing Nigeria to America is silly when you know America biggest arms exporter. Nigeria is not even sufficient in domesticly. “DICON, the main statutory manufacturer of arms and ammunition in Nigeria, has suffered neglect over the years and has been virtually non-operational. Consequently, the defence sector has to rely on external influence to determine the types of equipment to be sold or acquired. tsdarkside: Buying weapons from America supplies nsvy with Equipment in short term to battle these issues. Piracy cost Nigeria hundreds of millions a year. Buhari signed bill recently giving stiffer punishments for pirated. The government is currently trying to battle pirates. Speak for yourself if you're trembling behind your keyboard. |

Blue3k2: well....na me you want to argue with on an issue about nigerians depending only on oil money....?? seriously....?? you think i understand whats realy going on....?? nigeria is not an offensive nation,soo mind set to overproduce is not their.... but population is grown steadily....blamin only leaders is not enough.... we have a too comfortable mindset.... maybe we should go offensive....their is alot of money in war too,you know.... its a risk,you could perish....but when you win,ooooh my.... this peaceful approach is not gonna work....not now.... over half of africa start to dispice us....i think its better we close up and care only about ourselves or beat each other up.... |

Last month, Gabonese fisheries enforcement officers in conjunction with Sea Shepherd’s Bob Barker crew arrested Chinese flagged Haixin 27 for illegally fishing in Gabonese waters. In 2016, 51 vessels were inspected, and six arrests occurred. In 2017, that number increased to 80 vessels and nine arrests. Off topic Gabon been able to tackle their illegal fishing menace with a little help from aid organization and conviction to cause. These chinese illegal fishers should not given leniency. |
