Nigeria military has suffered a lot of loses and setback as a result of superior fire power of the insurgent group Boko haram.it have been reported on several occasion when soldiers fled across the border to Cameroon
As a result of continuous denial of the US government to sell arm to the Nigeria government to tackle the insurgent,the Nigeria Government is now seeking to buy arm from Russia according to The nation,
It is unclear if Russia will agree as a result of the US arm embargo,the military have decided on aerial bombardment of the insurgence since the infantry approach alone is not yielding the right result,the US has refused selling fighter jet and attack helicopter,and lethal equipment to Nigeria.
A source says that a delegation had gone to russia for talks, if all goes well, there will be order for war plane ,helicopters and other military hardware.
