The Nigerian Government is doing all within its power to rid the nation of insurgents and terrorists. The Nigerian Government through the Nigerian Army has just purchased some mine-resistant MRAPS vehicles.
According to the press release by the army, it says, Nigerian Army has inducted, operationalized 4 newly acquired Mine Resistant Anti Ambush Protected vehicles(MRAPs) in the North East theatre of operation to enhance firepower & protection of troops fighting Boko Haram and Islamic State of West Africa Province (ISWAP) Terrorists.
Recall that the Nigerian Army in partnership with Proforce Nigeria Limited, - an indigenous Armour Vehicle Manufacturing Company based in Ode-Remo in Ogun State had delivered the first-ever Nigerian Army. Proforce locally manufactured MRAPs, four of which were inaugurated on August 1, 2019, by the Chief of Defence Staff, General Abayomi Gabriel Olonisakin, at the Nigerian Army Resource Centre, Abuja.
According to Wikipedia, Mine Resistant Anti Ambush Protected vehicle is a term for United States military light tactical vehicles produced as part of the MRAP program that is designed specifically to withstand improvised explosive device (IED) attacks and ambushes. The Mine-Resistant, Ambush-Protected vehicle is a relatively new standard for military armored cars for the modern battlefield.
