'Ways Nigeria Can Tackle Current Insecurity' —Yemi Osinbajo | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has proposed certain ways in which Nigeria can attack the pressing security challenges the country.

Osinbajo opined on Wednesday after receiving a presentation on “Defence Transformation and National Security: Strategic Options for Nigeria of the Future,” by the National Defence College Course 30 participants during a virtual exchange.

According to him, Nigeria’s current security challenges need the country’s military and other relevant stakeholders to be on several steps ahead of perpetrators, and again, introducing a local production of armaments.

“If you look at the challenges that we are facing and the nature of those challenges, it is evident that we need to be many steps ahead of non-state actors in particular who are perpetrators of this asymmetric warfare that we are experiencing.

It is clear that given current realities in our security situation, there is absolutely every need for us to fast-forward all our plans for the future so that we can be much more effective in dealing with the current threats and the threats that we will experience as we go into the future.

One of the most critical areas is the question of local production of military hardware and I think it is low-hanging fruit when it comes to manufacturing some of the hardware that we will need. I think that there is a need, especially now to really look very closely at local production of our hardware, beginning with armament.

We mentioned India, Brazil, and even the more developed economies of the world, during the first world war, the second world war, it was these challenges that led to the development of their military-industrial complexes. We have a challenge today, there are so many zones where there are conflicts. Our law enforcement is spread out everywhere.

If we say the local companies should produce some of the mobile platforms like Armoured Personnel Carriers (APCs) and Multi-Role Armoured Vehicle (MRAV), if we give them the contracts, they will produce, but if we choose to import rather than produce locally then we will never develop our military-industrial complex,” Osinbajo said.

Speaking on the need for transparency in the management of resources meant for the acquisition of hardware for the defence and security agencies, he said;

“There needs to be more accountability because every time you hear, ‘we do not have enough equipment,’ but there must be accountability. I would like to see a framework for greater accountability within the Ministry of Defence that ensures that they are able to account for military expenditure.”
