Firstly,se this is the kind of offensive vehicles the previous govt. Claimed too expensive ;imagine 24 of these solid chit for just $11million! Nigeria could have got 100 for just $50million. Secondly, these vehicles can only be operated by personels of that army units. Series of codes are needed to operate the vehicles unlike current pick-up trucks they are driving around.

With President Mohammed Buhari has the Commander in Chief of Nigerian Armed Forces, those 24 MRAP will be fully utilize by our men and women in uniforms to destroy Boko Haram terrorists in the northeast region. I have to thank the President of the United States for their military support in our fight to dismantle those animals in human skin called Boko Haram. I expect our able and competent president to announce soon some great incentives, salaries increase, accusations of some modern military and communication gadgets for our military to give them moral boast and the supports needed to kill all Boko Haram terrorists and finally bring down those politicians and evil men financing their evil agenda. We need more of this help and support from other advance countries of the world. United States of America is Nigerian strongest ally on our fight to defeat and destroy any forms of terrorism on Nigerian soil. With PMB in power, the days of Boko Haram horror are numbered. And together we shall prevail over their evil plan and agenda.
