Slovak producer of minesweeping equipment, Way Industries, on Monday announced it signed a contract to supply five Bozena mine clearing units to Nigeria.

"We've just received the results of a tender in Bangladesh in which Slovakia's Bozena won as well. We're analyzing the details of the tenders as we speak," the company's general director Bohuslav Lipovsky said Monday.

Apart from regular supplies of mine clearing equipment, the firm specializes in consulting and training soldiers.
