US Presidents use an American Cadilac called the Beast, President Putin uses Russian-made Aurus Senat, and Chinese President Xi uses a Hongqi L5. It’s time for Nigerian President Tinibu to use the Eagle.
I will like Profotce, Nord, or Innoson to tender to design and build Presidential & Premier Class cars for Nigerian Presidents & Nigerian Governments; is anyone commissioning them to do so? This is a good way to help Nigerian businesses and Nigerian exports. I’m sure many African heads of state will buy a Nigerian-made Eagle.
Proforce already builds battlefield-tested AMRAM military personnel carriers locally for our army; it also exports them to other countries. Proforce also retrofits bullet-proof & bomb-proof cars locally.
Local media & social media critics should be advocating this instead of the usual Lamentation & talking down Nigerians
Once commissioned, the Nigerian-made Eagle can be available for the presidency come 2027.
What’s your view? Please share until it gets to the necessary bodies: NASS, procurement, budget, & the presidency. I believe in Nigerian capability & Nigerian-made. It’s time for all to promote Nigerian-made; not by words alone, but by actions.
