I couldn't agree with you more and do see your valid points.

When half of Africa was signing on to TSCTI, most of the former Eastern European nations were doing the same with far smaller assets. Hell, we are still doing "it" and can't afford nor support most of the initiatives with barely 1.4 million people ! There are more disasters than success stories.

The Nigerian Army is considered to be number 2 on the continent in quality and shear size. A ton of stuff goes along with that prestige and the Nigerian government signs on for things it can't pay for. Is President Jonathan expected to turn all of those promises around into a more realistic approach ?
