Do we have any air defense system in Nigeria? Asking respectfully

If you have any s to take you to the Tactical Air Command in Makurdi or the Special Operations Group Command in Port Harcourt, let alone the ones in Calabar, Benin, Kaduna and Borno states, I suggest you arrange and pay a visit.

You will be shocked!

Nigeria has the best air defence capabilities in Sub-Saharan Africa, thanks to the Boko Haram insurgency which forced the government to do some massive military spending, especially under the Buhari years.

Too bad about SA.

The needful should be done. Not channelling all there energy and resources defending folks who have sworn to eliminate a certain people due to hatred and malice.

When they come under attack from these Islamists, then their brain would be reset.

I told many people that very soon South Africans will be running to Zimbabwe for hustling just like we left Zimbabwe to hustle in Souty.
South Africa is going down day by day.

South Africa only know how to make noise on social media always too eager to criticise Nigerians

Whether you like it or not, Nigeria doesn't pay the kind of tax that can make things better, and oddly enough, south africa has the same issue.

You can mock me, but it doesn't defeat the cold hard fact. Corruption makes a bad matter worse.

Also, grow up.

All the investments made in south Africa by white minorities, when the bitter and hateful blacks south Africans took over, they abandoned it then focusing on xenophobic attacks on fellow blacks Africans that helped them regain their freedom. Blacks south Africans are lazy to work, lazy in maintenance and are learning corruption from Nigeria.

Oya food don ready for the blood sucking Israelis. You can now sponsor terror against SA and pin it down on Islam.

Is Islam not a religion system that enables terrorism right from their false pedophilia prophet?

These guys think leadership is about grandstanding and noise on social media, shouting "kill the Boer" slogan, criticizing Israel for defending itself, or pinning every problem on the West.
Now, how does South Africa plan to effectively defend itself against an invasion by Islamic terrorists or any external force with an air force in such a poor state? 🤷🏼‍

Look at Zimbabwe(forced land reform). Look at Niger, and Mali, these countries thought that bashing the West or leaning on military rule would magically fix everything. Well, it isn't. The real issue is deeper. Look inward, accept responsibility and fix the issue.


The problem isn't about bashing the West like you mentioned; Russia and China do that every other day, and they’re great powers. The problem is I don't think black people generally can govern or build and maintain states and institutions. Let's tell it like it is and outsource this type of role or office to the white man or any interested foreigner.

The black man lacks the mental capacity to govern himself and society. Ever since the blacks took over power in South Africa there's nothing new added to what the Whites did, no major developmental advancement, rather they are sliding deep down.

A similar thing has played out since Nigerias Independence in 1960. There's no major development have taken place in Nigeria. We are still battling with hunger, diseases and unemployment. Other countries that started with us in Asia have all advanced.

It has become worse since 2023 when a rogue and drug lord took the mantle of leadership by crooked means. Made worse by his mentally deranged ers who are everywhere praising him for the affliction he brought instead of demanding for good and able leadership.

The blackman is doomed.

You couldn't have said it any better..very apt and accurate submission,the Blackman is mentally inferior to the white man,that's the painful truth,we destroy good things rather than build them.

Nigeria keeps getting worse thanks to the rogue government of the day,everyone from the Judiciary down to the common man now does things illegally so openly without fear of course for the single reason that the man at the top has been accused of so much illegality and crime yet he seats comfortably making the country worse by the day..Sometimes I wonder if these men even know how hated they are by the people.
