Nigeria Set to Begin Mass Production of Military Munitions within One Year

According to ThisDayLive, the Minister of Defence, General Christopher Musa (rtd), has disclosed that Nigeria will commence large-scale local production of defence hardware next year for domestic use. The announcement follows years of reliance on imported military equipment, with the aim of reducing dependence and boosting national security. As reported by Leadership Newspapers, the production will begin within the next year. This move is expected to not only reduce dependence on foreign military hardware but also create jobs and stimulate local industries.
