Don't be a daft celebrating mediocrity, how can your brain be used as margarine for bread? That thing ain't a military helicopter, it a enger helicopter.

That thing in the picture is not what Buhari is buying. Buhari is buying six of the militarized version. He slso bought 4 heavy attack helicopter, the MI 35M for about $35m each. One of the very expensive MI 35M has crashed this month or last . This light helicopter military version will do almost the same thing and it's only $6.3m. The NAF only uses it for operations against lightly defended herdsmen and bandit camps. It's also useful for some operations against Boko Harem. It is a very brilliant decision to juggle the numbers of this helicopter instead of a few maintenance intensive MI 35M.

NAF is not buying A109 Power. They are buying A109M LUH. It's the military version of the stupid picture you posted here that they are buying. It will have an armoured cockpit, an auto canon, heavy machine guns, IR/EO for night attacks, rocket pods. It would be able to fire precision guided hydrarockets at targets.

Alpha jets revamp is slow.

so they hacked the server and found the truth

They hacked the server to write fake results.

Nigeria's educational system is very bad. That is why you could read this statement by Trump and understand it to mean literally stealing ballot boxes. You have an English comprehension problem and probably went to a poor school

This is what is so annoying about this country. Instead of doing srlf improvement in their weak areas, young guys just keep displaying mediocrity everywhere.

Parada:
Blame Wike for stopping the rail Amechi was constructing, Lagos voted Ambode out cause he slowed down the rail Fashola started, Rivers should vote Wike out for the same reason if they are desirous of a rail system in the state.

Wike stopped mono rail and borrowed money to build roads that last only 9 months in Port Harcourt. The big mistakes that guy is making, Rivers people will pay a high price for it. Portharcourt will go the way of Warri soon because of mediocrity, locality and lack of vision.

ugo4u:

This kind of landing site,(dusty environment) is one of the scariest for a pilot after Loss of instruments/tail rotor. Just imagining what will be going through the minds of the guys behind the sticks during a hot evac.

MI 35M not (P) and A109LUH are better able to handle these dirty operating environments. I am more concerned about the work the maintenance crew have to do than the crew and engers

Ablemax:
The MNJTF wishes to warn individuals still associated with Boko Haram to surrender themselves for demobilization and rehabilitation, while the opportunity still exists...
After all what they have done...why will any right thinking government do that.

Obviously you have not been an uneducated, poor teenager living far from a big city or the western world but you need to use your imagination as to how one could be a er of Boko Haram without committing any crimes ...yet.

ugo4u:

I agree they won't sell to Nigeria, not really because of the reason you stated cos in the first place The black hawk is owned by a Russian coy, Sirkozky won the contract to build a reliable bird that would replace the Huey in Vietnam.
I believe the reason why they won't sell to Nigeria is cos of human rights palaver/politics cos even more sophisticated american birds like the Apache have being sold to some Asian countries close to China, so I don't really think technology theft could be the reason for them not selling to us.

Sikorsky was an American. Sikorsky is a US company. I am sure a bigger company has bought them up now.
I am not even sure he was ever a Russian for more than ten years as a child. He was brought into the US and became a successful airplane and chopper designer.

bidexiii:


Why... .?

Sensitive tech. Corruption. It's a credible threat. A Chinese company could pay just $20k to a Nigerian and very sensitive assembly drawings or even parts from stores get traded to China.

prince3009:
I believe the issue of this 737 Max 8 is partly a factory error, maintenance and pilot technique!

Since some American airlines have refused to remove them from their fleet and are confidence of their "safety and airworthiness", then I guess the previous crashes involving Indonesia, China and now Ethiopia were due to carelessness on the part of the airline servicing crew! QED!!

Very wrong. The company did not communicate the peculiarities of a new tech appropriately. Some US pilots quickly switched to manual during climb after taking off and it worked for them but foreign pilots who are distant from industry word of mouth about this tendency did not know enough to go off auto.

jakeporeshenko:

It’s just a fantasy though, too many bottlenecks. US approval, pilots and technicians to man them and most of all fund

Yes US won't permit the sale of Blackhawk chopper especially to Nigeria

delugajackson:
Dino keeps displaying his infantile attitude online. I mean, after all he must have been through, one would have expected a more mature man and not an upgraded drama king.

Now we're stuck with another four years of flaunting super cars for the gram, dancing shoki and freestyling in the red chambers.

This empty generation needs him. The guy is very prayerful so God always gives him the required deliverance for his purposes. However if Dino is your hero, there is something lacking in your psychology.

Kids are scared shitless. NO. They are not coming for the mangoes after this. Actually they are not taking that route back home again after this.

"Release my money ($101m), release my corrupt friends, give me free hand to rig 2023 elections and I won't go to court".

Atiku is just a cheap crook

His ers are worse crooks.

This Tinubu and brains. Apart from obvious drug problem, this guy is one of the smartest politicians alive.

FAKE NEWS FAKE NEWS

Nemesis, why would India send outdated MIG21 Bison into Pakistan?. That's not something you send into a contested airspace. And the SU MKI, that's your top of the line combat aircraft for now but mostly useless. Why are you giving Pakis free publicity. I know they can't stand you in a prolonged engagement but the optics of this is not good Re India

Less than CAN$200k to Canada?. Get a job first and live small. Cheapest rent is $600 per month. You will heat your house, transport your self and pay bills. You will never, ever be rich living in Canada. In fact you probably won't be able to come home in the first 5 years. If you work in the oil industry in Calgary, you will want to buy a house because it's better than renting. Cheapest houses in just okay neighbourhoods $600,000.00 on 30 year mortgage. In fact, it's better to live there and do business in Nigeria which brings the question- why leave in the first place?.

Donmedra:
what are you seeing? They might be a rerun if he wins in court because card readers weren't used in most northern state, they also over voted.. video is all over the internet.

The tribunal will ask inec to shoe the proof of voting.

Kaduna, Kano, yobe, borno will likely be a rerun states

The possibility of Atiku winning a re-run is even more remote than the main elections he lost. He won't be winning more in Kaduna, Kano, Yobe and Borno. Wike won't be helping him in Rivers and APC would be more ready in Lagos. I see them giving Buhari even more margins of victory.
I don't even see him winning in court to get a re run in the first place. APC also has videos and pictures of PDP rigging in the North, Rivers and C. Rivers states.

Profit taking is the reason. Read the story.

bodejohn:
Occupies

or

Occupied...

You could say it in a short way of neaning "occupies himself" with national duty

This OP is correct to say God can make Atiku President but he is wrong. God does NOT want Atiku as President. More importantly, no western power(s) can disenfranchise Nigerians and impose Atiku. The entire West Africa will be set ablaze.
Mr OP, one of the gains of education is to accept cold, hard facts. Buhari is far far more acceptable to the North, that is why he won. It's cold, it's painful but wisdom is accepting things you can't change.

omonscloak:

The reason people in Abuja and some in Lagos voted for Atiku is becos no more TSA, no more loose funds to steal, go around Abuja so many abandoned estates. Civil servants building mansions, to the smallest money you want to pay you must use remitta. You had an economy financed by stolen funds now I go to the market I see Nigeria rice and other product. Yes he erred in many areas but Buhari performed better than 16years of PDP,there has to be hard times before the good times. From the unofficial result Buhari won Lagos. My brother no loser no winner in the election, the two candidates are not the best Nigeria can offer.

Sensible post. Thanks

bayelsaowei:
Thats it.. thats just it..

This is a state that adds little or no value to the country..

Same for bornu and yobe..

Nigeria a failed state..

No value? So it incapacitated their votes. You guys grieve God so much even in your bitterness. Katsina is an agric powerhouse. It's getting a refinery in the next 3 to 4 years using Niger Republic crude. They will show you contribution soon

chozzy:



You should be far more than this.
Stop following the illiterate bandwagon. Of what use is NNPC as a government corporation?
Till date, not a single working refinery. Just issue oil licenses, sell crude for FG and share money.
The corruption in that corporation is mind boggling. Most oil producing countries worldwide
have since

Buhari will sell NNPC and people will clap for him. It's actually on the agenda of APC to sell the refineries and they have sold part of the oil & gas JV to reduce Nigerias share to 40%. Howevet, NAME & INTEGRITY is every thing. Maybe it is too complex for guys like you to understand.

Mr mathematically impossible, how far? SMH
The amount of stinking bullshit that Nigerians are capable of never ceasrs yo3 amaze me.

Obinnau:
See this sellout talking
Mchew

He us building a case to absolve himself.

Lagos, FCT and Nasarawa missing. Buhari margins underestimated in 4 states.

MYHUBBY:



Yoruba are just one strange human being. imagine the margin if they've voted in huge for Buhari. if not for North commitment, Buhari hope would have been dashed


I'm sure if East pmb, they won't give him nothing less than 80%. Yoruba are really unpredictable

Sophisticated Yoruba. The East is always scared, feel persecuted and hateful.

eyescue:


Not a bad result for PDP. The game plan is simple, share the Northerners vote and secure the SS n SE vote tightly for PDP

Sokoto was best case scenario for Atiku in the core North. The other states were a massacre.

There is a completely useless ex Senator called Ben Bruce. He did this to PDP. He did not even win PDP nomination. There is also a complete fool called Atiku who is allowing this useless Senator into his inner circle. They will shave his head and abandon him.
