President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday said weapons from the raging war between Russia and Ukraine are now slipping into the Lake Chad Basin region.

Lake Chad region, an economically and socially integrated area in West and Central Africa straddling Cameroon, Chad, Niger, and Nigeria.


In his opening address at the 16th Summit of the Heads of State and Government of the Lake Chad Basin Commission (LCBC), held at the Conference Hall of the Presidential Villa, Abuja, Buhari, who is also the Chairman of the Summit, said the situation which had heightened the proliferation of small arms and light weapons called for reawakening of the border security of the countries of the region.

President Buhari said the Russia/Ukraine conflict and other violent situations in the Sahel region of West Africa had compounded the Boko Haram terrorism in the Lake Chad Basin region.

He said though a lot had been done to decimate the strength of the Boko Haram terror group and other violent extremist groups in the region, terrorists threats still persist.

“I am glad to inform my dear brothers that in keeping with that decision, the MNJTF has since then, successfully conducted three major operations: Ops‘YANCIN TAFKI (I&II) and Ops Lake Sanity I, with, the fourth one, Ops Lake Sanity II, being planned. The next phase of the operation will take cognizance of lessons learnt from previous exercises and effectively consolidating the gains attained by preceding Ops.

“I am glad to note that during the execution of Ops Lake Sanity I, regrouping terrorists in the Lake Chad Islands were effectively decimated.

“It must however be stated that despite the successes recorded by the gallant troops of the MNJTF and the various ongoing national operations in the region, the terrorist threats still lurks in the region.

“Regrettably, the situation in the Sahel and the raging war in Ukraine serve as major sources of weapons and fighters that bolster the ranks of the terrorists in Lake Chad Region. A substantial proportion of the arms and ammunitions procured to execute the war in Libya, continues to find its way to the Lake Chad Region and other parts of the Sahel. Weapons being used for the war in Ukraine and Russia are equally beginning to filter to the region.

“This illegal movement of arms into the region has heightened the proliferation of small arms and light weapons which continues to threaten our collective peace and security in the region. There is therefore, the urgent need for expedited collaborative actions by our border control agencies and other security services to stop the circulation of all illegal weapons in the region,” he said.

The President said governments of the region needed to complement the ongoing efforts with the provision of sustainable development projects, which he said would make life more conducive for the people and restore their confidence in the State.

“Government presence must be positively felt in the area to restore the confidence of citizens in the ability of the State to protect them and provide basic infrastructure for all.

“It is in view of the foregoing, that the implementation of the Regional Strategy for the Stabilization, Recovery and Resilience of the Boko Haram affected Areas of the region must gain further traction without any delay,” he said.

Meanwhile, in his welcome address to the Summit, the Executive Secretary of the LCBC, Ambassador Mamman Nuhu, disclosed that Nigeria had remitted a total of $209,075,748 to the funding of the MNJTF between 2015 and 2021.

The event had Presidents and Heads of State of the six member-states in attendance, with the exception of President Paul Biya of Cameroon, who was represented by one of his ministers.

Those in physical attendance were Prof. Faustine Archange TOUADERA, President of the Central African Republic; Mohamed BAZOUM, President and Head of State of Niger Republic; Patrice TALLON, President of the Republic of Benin; Mahamat Idriss Deby ITNO, President of the Transition Military Council of Chad, President of the Republic, Head of State; Mohamed AL-MENFI, Chairman, Presidential Councilof Libya.

 
But if you comment in this, your are Russian lover.

The Ukraine money scam CBS tried to report on but the Biden admin complained.
 
See your boys are selling arms given to Ukraine by US and NATO on the arms market now showing up in Africa.
You guys are a bunch of thieves.
Oh, stop this babbling. You loons seem to think that Ukrainian army has been fighting the Russians for nine months with bare hands.

With the way the chickenshit Russians are running away I suspect there are tons of battlefield pickups available.

I never said that, only the Ukrainians are selling weapons and medical supplies from NATO and the US on the black market.
Was that the intention supplying arms to Ukraine, to sell them in Africa and wherever else?

That the Ukrainians are selling weapons from the conflict zone, I heard from 2014 when the war in the Donbas started. These narratives were pushed by Russian propaganda to discredit the Ukrainian side.

Now I see the same. I don't know it is true or not. I just see the coincidence.

I don't know what per cent goes to the black market. But I don't think it is too high, if any, given how efficient the Ukrainian army is on the battlefield. But for some reason you peddle this narrative.

Well, Africa has demanded an investigation as to how US/NATO weapons, given to Ukraine, are ending up in Africa....My man, this is 202.
Maybe you should Google that.

Africa? Africa is a continent. If you about the OP, then there is nothing there that specifies it was US/NATO weapons given to Ukraine.

Why was the CBS documentary on tracking goods delivered to Ukraine 'sanitized' after the WH got upset?
You think Biden and NATO want stories detailing Ukraine selling off 'donated' goods?

I don't know. I am all for strict control of weapons and money being sent to Ukraine. I can't rule out that some amount of weapons don't find its way to black market. But I don't think this amount is high. But it is only my perception.

I saw a news report some months ago showing NATO/US medical supplies, light weight military items, all for sale in some kind of market in Ukraine.
 
Viktor Bout the illegal arms dealer just released in a trade for the lesbo Brittney Griner specialized in suppling weapons to dictators and insurgent groups in Africa.
Apparently, the guy had a lot of personal contacts worth billions of dollars in future weapons sales.
Maybe this explains why both the US and Russian governments were eager to get him out if prison.
