Chai! My people, e be like say na so we go dey run am for Naija! IMPI, wahala finisher, don carry mouth come talk say make Federal Government shift gear gear focus, make dem prioritize local arms production.

Omo! This matter no be beans o! According to dem, as Dr. Omoniyi Akinsiju even talk am, DICON wey don dey since 1964, suppose be our backbone for self-reliance, but na underfunding and plenty bureaucracy dey hold dem back.

No be small wahala wey dey ground! E don reach time wey we gatz show dem say OBJ-006 rifle wey dem design no fit dey depend on imported parts again. Dem even dey compare our situation with South Africa wey dey export armoured vehicles through Paramount Group and Turkey wey don dey burst ground with dem drone industry.

Wetin dey spoil for Naija be say, we gatz get political will. IMPI talk say we get the capacity, but na to carry the right people for the matter wey dey important. Local firms like Proforce dey manufacture mine-resistant vehicles but na so we still dey import old and overpriced equipment from oyinbo people wey sabi middlemen small.

Na real gist be this! Dem even talk about the $500 million contract for used Puma helicopters wey no get any sense, as e don show how broken our system dey. Na ordinary wound this matter fit dey heal.

IMPI dey beg say make FG comot eye for foreign arms, make dem dey pour the money wey dey jamb up the budget for DICON instead. E go make sense if we fit partner with countries wey get more capacity like Turkey and Israel, so we go fit bridge the gap wey dey our local tech.

And no forget AFIT o! Dem dey roll with am! Dey get engineers wey dey work on drones wey go fit serve military and civilian needs. Make FG give dem some love and support, so we fit dey scale our local capacity.

If na so e go happen, e go make us ready to defend our land, save money wey dey go outside, and create jobs for small people wey wan hustle for this country.
