President Bola Tinubu says purchasing military equipment alone cannot guarantee security across Africa, stressing the need for stronger defence partnerships and technological development.
The President called for cooperation to promote technology transfer and strengthen African countries’ capacity to address their security challenges.
His position highlights the importance of combining modern military hardware with intelligence sharing, local expertise and sustainable defence industries.
African countries continue to face security threats, including terrorism, insurgency and organised criminal activities, which often require coordinated regional responses.
The President’s remarks reinforce calls for African nations to develop greater domestic capacity while strengthening cooperation with international partners.
