The Danger of Mismanaged Military Weapons in Nigeria
Nuhu Ribadu, Nigeria’s National Security Adviser, has stated that many of the weapons used by terrorists and bandits were originally owned by the Nigerian government.
He noted that these arms likely fell into the wrong hands through various channels, including battlefield losses and illegal sales.
Ribadu emphasized the need for stronger measures to secure government weapons and prevent them from being used to fuel insecurity across the country.
This highlights the importance of better managing and tracking military equipment.
