DICON, Saudi firm sign MoU to produce security drones, satellites in Nigeria

The Defence Industries Corporation of Nigeria (DICON), haa sealed a landmark partnership with Homeland Protectors and Supplies Limited, a Saudi Arabia-based security company, to begin local manufacturing of drones, satellite systems, and advanced communication equipment.

The agreement, signed at DICON headquarters in Kaduna, is expected to see Homeland Protectors bring in production lines and technology to Nigeria, to manufacture satellite systems, laser equipment, border security drones and sophisticated communications solutions.

This is to give a boost to Nigeria’s quest for local production of high-end security technology.

The Director General of DICON, Maj. General Babatunde Ibrahim Alaya, shortly after signing the MoU, described the deal as a “major milestone” in Nigeria’s drive for defence self-sufficiency.

He said the collaboration would not only meet local demands but also position Nigeria as an exporter of security technology to other African countries.

According to him: “Today is another milestone for DICON. What Homeland Protectors is bringing on board is expertise and experience in the field of satellite, laser systems, communications, and border security drones.

“The agreement we have just signed is for them to bring the production line to Nigeria and start producing here, so we can satisfy the defence industry requirements, other security agencies and export the excess capacity to other African countries.”

He expressed profound appreciation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for what he called his “constant support and firm belief in DICON,” especially for signing the DICON Act 2023, which has now paved the way for international partnerships of this magnitude.

In his remarks, the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Homeland Protectors and Supplies, Mr. Ali Hussain A Aldayhani, who led the Saudi delegation to Nigeria, hailed the partnership as a game-changer for Nigeria’s security architecture.
