Nigeria Will Look Inward To Develop Its Armed Forces – Maku

Nigeria will no longer depend on the developed world in building and developing the capacity and resources of the military since the country now has what it takes to do it.
The supervising minister of defence, Mr Labaran Maku made this known in Kaduna on Tuesday at the Chief of Air Staff Award Night for 2013, attended by the Chief of Defence Staff, Admiral Ola S Ibrahim, other serving and retired Air Force officers and their spouses.
“I believe that the country has the resources to support development and research in the armed forces, so that between now and the next 15 years, we can depend more on our local creativity than our foreign supplies.
No nation can sustain its security system by depending on other countries; you need your own ingenuity to run the system.’’ Maku said.
