“Regrettably, the situation in the Sahel and the raging war in Ukraine serve as major sources of weapons and fighters that bolster the ranks of the terrorists in Lake Chad Region. A substantial proportion of the arms and ammunitions procured to execute the war in Libya, continues to find its way to the Lake Chad Region and other parts of the Sahel. Weapons being used for the war in Ukraine and Russia are equally beginning to filter to the region.
…The question why there are weapons from Ukraine in Africa is critical. Even western countries supplying weapons to Ukraine are seriously concerned about such cases. Reselling weapons abroad – to Europe (Sweden) and Africa is becoming a common practice in Ukraine.
To be clear your source is the same one that said this recently.In case you wanted to know where our weapons are going:

You do realize you can just go to Google news and type in 'Nigeria Ukraine Weapons' and find the same report from many other sources right? Since it seems you only follow establishment news, here is one from CBS that was not allowed to air:
Nowhere does Buhari say it's Western weapons. In fact he doesn't provide much detail at all on what weapons are seen. Also the only source I see for this is him. Polygraph point to reports that most of the weapons being used have been captured from national stockpiles of the militaries there.You do realize you can just go to Google news and type in 'Nigeria Ukraine Weapons' and find the same report from many other sources right?

This is the age of the partisan.As a result of December 11 HIMARS strike on a drunk party in a restaurant in occupied Melitopol city, the entire command of the 58th Russian Army (North Osetia) was eliminated.
GG Partisans!

In my dreams I see them using this kit to make a homemade cruise missile.I really, really doubt that’s the purpose of these. As much as what air defence doing is a well earned meme, no Ukrainian is flying over the Kerch bridge any time soon.

American officials are turning to everything from blockchain technology to Ukrainian soldiers for help as they struggle to track the billions of dollars in U.S. weapons and other aid flowing into Ukraine, according to a State Department cable obtained by POLITICO.
So you think it's Russian weapons getting lost? Here's another source, the Pentagon:

Not a surprise when we send 100+ billion to the second most corrupt country in Europe.
The VKS has divided the Ukrainian/Russian lines into eight zones and maintains a regular posture of a pair of Su-35S fighters or Mikoyan Mig-31BM interceptors in each one.74 Without regular tanker support – which the VKS does not provide to fighter units due to limited capacity and prioritising the strategic bomber force – times on station for these CAPs are unlikely to exceed two hours, so at minimum this posture requires around 96 sorties per day to sustain in daylight.75 However, these patrols have proven highly effective against Ukrainian attack aircraft and fighters, with the Mig-31BM and R-37M long-range air-to-air missile being especially problematic. The VKS has been firing up to six R-37Ms per day during October, and the extremely high speed of the weapon, coupled with very long effective range and a seeker designed for engaging low-altitude targets, makes it particularly difficult to evade.76 The long range of the R-37M, in conjunction with the very high performance and high operating altitude of the Mig-31BM also allows it significant freedom to menace Ukrainian aircraft near the frontlines from outside the range of Ukrainian defences. The VKS has also started employing the R-37M from at least a few of its Su-35S fighters, which not only increases the reach of the latter in combat but may also suggests Russian stocks of the R-37M are in little danger of running out.77

It’s not that you’re just stupid, it’s throughly insulting that you think anyone will go for this.
