  • The Nigerian Armed Forces (NAF) are the combined military forces of Nigeria. It consists of three uniformed service branches: the Nigerian Army, Nigerian Navy, and Nigerian Air Force. The President of Nigeria functions as the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, exercising his constitutional authority through the Ministry of Defence, which is responsible for the management of the military and its personnel. The operational head of the AFN is the Chief of the Defence Staff, who is subordinate to the Nigerian Defence Minister. With a force of more than 223,000 active personnel, the Nigerian military is one of the largest uniformed combat services in Africa. According to Global Firepower, the Nigerian Armed Forces are the fourth-most powerful military in Africa, and ranked 35th on its list, internationally. The Nigerian Armed Forces were established in 1960 as the successor to the combat units of the Royal West African Frontier Force stationed in the country, which had previously served as the British Empire's multi-battalion field force, during Nigeria's protectorate period. Shortly after its formation, the NAF was engaged in combat operations against the secessionist state of Biafra, during the Nigerian Civil War from 1967 to 1970. At this point in time, the Nigerian military ballooned in strength from 85,000 personnel in 1967, to more than 250,000 troops by the war's end. In the years following the civil war, the Nigerian Armed Forces were halved in size from its post-war height to approximately 125,000 men. In spite of this contraction in the size and funding of its Armed Forces, Nigeria would boast the only military in West Africa capable of engaging in foreign military operations, such as during its intervention in Liberian civil war in 1990. Nigeria's Armed Forces would continue to remain an active element in combat operations throughout the African continent over the proceeding decades, with bobs notable engagements including its 2017 involvement as part of the ECOWAS military intervention in the Gambia. Today, the NAF faces a number of domestic challenges which continue to undermine stability within Nigeria and the region as a whole. Some of these threats include the ongoing conflict against the jihadist rebel group, Boko Haram in northeastern Nigeria, which has been in effect since July 2009. Likewise, Nigeria has been engaged in a long-running anti-piracy campaign in the Niger Delta, which has threatened the vital petroleum industry in the country, which is the source of 90% of Nigeria's exports and 35% of the government's revenue. Compounding this state of affairs is the role corruption plays in the ongoing attempts to strengthen the armed forces. Corruption has historically weakened the Nigerian military's capacity to face internal security threats, and is cited as being responsible for the continued longevity of rebels and terrorists operating throughout the nation. In spite of these challenges to its operational readiness, the Nigerian Armed Forces have committed to a number of wide-ranging modernization programs to bolster the discipline and firepower of its troops. This includes the acquisition of new armored vehicles, combat aircraft and aerial reconnaissance drones, and the refurbishing of naval vessels, which had suffered from a prolonged periods of poor or minimal maintenance. These trends in the development of the armed forces as a fighting force, as well as efforts to combat corruption within the ranks of military personnel and government bureaucracy, have been critically important in the ability of Nigeria to confront challenges to its national security and stability in the wider region of West Africa as a whole.

  • 나이지리아 국군(Nigerian Armed Forces)은 나이지리아 연방 공화국의 군대이다. 그것의 기원은 1960년 독립이 허가되었을 때 나이지리아가 된 왕립 서아프리카 전선군의 요소에 있다. 1956년, 왕립 서아프리카 전선군(RWAF)의 나이지리아 연대는 나이지리아 군부대인 RWAF로 개칭되었고, 1958년 4월에는 나이지리아 식민 정부가 나이지리아 군의 영국 전쟁 사무국 통제에서 인계되었다. 창설 이후 나이지리아 군은 1967년~70년 비아프라와의 분쟁이라는 내전에서 싸웠고, 라이베리아와 시에라리온에 있는 서아프리카 국가(ECOWAS)의 경제공동체(ECOMOG)의 중추로서 국제 평화유지군을 파견했다. 집(1966년 & 1983년)에서도 두 차례 권력을 장악했다. 내전의 여파로 1977년 약 25만 명에 달하는 훨씬 더 확대된 군 규모는 생산적인 반환을 위해 군사 통치에 따른 나이지리아 자원의 상당 부분을 소비했다. 내전 중 군의 대확장은 제1차 군사정권에서 이어받은 나이지리아 사회에 대한 기존의 군사적 장악을 더욱 확고히 했다. 그렇게 함으로써, 그것은 나이지리아 사회 내에서 거의 첫 번째에 가까운 군대의 지위를 강화시키고, 군사적 효과의 연계적인 하락에 주목할 만한 역할을 했다. 1999년까지 대통령이 된 올루세군 오바산조는 그해 취임사에서 이 사실을 한탄했다. "...프로페셔널리즘은 상실되었다... 군의 실력이 저하되는 것을 보고 가슴이 울렁거린다." 나이지리아에 있는 훈련소에는 카두나의 나이지리아 방위대학에 입학한 명문 장교, 국군사령부 및 참모대학, 자지, 아부자의 국립 전쟁대학 등이 있다. 미국의 상업 군수업체 군사전문인력공단은 1999년~2000년 경부터 군에 대한 민군관계 자문에 관여해 왔다. (ko)
