Can these people leave us alone for once?
Though I'm not a Buhari loyalist, But Uncle Sam should let us be, Let's see what Buhari has to offer. I'm gradually becoming wary of Uncle Sam(U.S)

They will not leave us alone, what did you expect after they assisted us in installing the new govt.

Just listen to yourself bro

Why would any responsible government sell arms to a government that has corruption entrenched in its processes?

What guarantees that the arms would have been used for the intended purposes?

Who were those that initially armed the Niger delta militants?

Should they have ignored the somewhat questionable intelligence that the insurgency was politically motivated?

GMB's integrity was his biggest selling point.

Would David Axelrod been able to sell Shekau?

Please provide evidence of them openly interfering with our Government by supporting GMB

Don't be deliberately stvpid

When has corruption ever been a reason to scuttle an arms deal worth hundreds of millions ? So why are egypt, uganda e.t.c being propped up by arms from this same U.S?

When did the U.S government become a responsible government? Don't tell me it is because obama is president as that would be simply laughable. Also, tell me, how do you judge and who gets to judge responsibility in a government?

What guarantees did the U.S have that the syrian anti-Assad rebels would use the arms they supplied them only against Assad's forces? What guarantees did they have that they wouldn't become islamic fundamentalists?

If they had evidence that the insurgency was politically motivated, who and whom did they say were the suspected protagonists? Why didn't they accuse them with these evidence(s)? Were they admitting that it most likely won't stand scrutiny in the court of law?

Yes, with obama's help, axelrod would most definitely be able to sell shekau, I know I would, so don't underestimate the power of propaganda and/or the fickleness of the public in terms of how they can be conditioned into buying a line, story, thought and an idea. So on GMB's integrity, that's stale story, try a different tack next time

In law there is what we call circumstantial evidence also, if a combination of obama, axelrod, change in American foreign policy towards Nigeria a supposed ally on frivolous grounds without same change of policies happening to other allies of the U.S elsewhere and John kerry's promise of a better relationship with Nigeria after the elections before ever elections were held don't add up to you then am wasting my time with you.

Please be cognisant and conversant with international politics before posting naïve semi-literate comments.

Primitive Nigerians will never learn!

The US can't protect its own citizens from terrorism. There are so many Americans that have joined ISIS. Terror attacks on American soil.

I am afraid of Obama's interest in Nigeria. This son of a devil must be up to something. I fear that he is trying to do the similar things he did in Yemen, Iraqi, Syria and Libya here. That evil man must be feared.

WTF is their business #vegatalks

In Orubebe voice* leave us alone! Leave us alone*

it maybe their pact with Buhari when he was seeking them, to support him grab power by all means

iyatrustee:
The way USA and the western world suddenly wants to be involved in the affairs of Nigeria is disturbing oh

I just hope they have not found in GMB a puppet

it was the APC That gave them chance!

Excellentmind:
In what language does US want me to say that she is not welcome in Nigeria. Nigeria is a sovereign nation capable of running her affairs without external interference from any self rated super power. This message should be passed across to US and her citizens to stay off the track of Nigeria's affairs because we now know that they are devil clothed in the regalia of pope.

when they issue useless certificate to Jegajaga ,you all were rejoicing that, they used Jegajaga to rig GEJ out,you Naija peeps should wait and see the seed of the tree you planted

When GMB was visiting them,you never cared to know why he was doing so,now it's late

The U.S. Secretary of State, Mr John Kerry, has predicted that the new government in Nigeria might face the challenge of protecting its citizens against terrorism threats. Kerry made the assertion in a statement by the African Regional Media Hub of the United States Department of State on Tuesday in Lagos. The statement quoted Kerry as making the prediction after signing a Memorandum of Cooperation to support disease control and prevention in Africa with the African Union (AU) in Washington D.C.

“One of the principal challenges facing the new government in Abuja will be that of protecting Nigerian citizens from the terrorism threat. “The U.S. endorses the effort by the AU and its partners to establish a multinational taskforce to halt Boko Haram’s campaign within and beyond Nigeria’s borders.

“We will also continue generally to help African governments to improve their counter-terrorism and border security capabilities,’’ it stated. The statement expressed the U.S. government’s commitment to promoting cordial relationships with African countries. It added that the government had learnt that diplomatic and peacekeeping initiatives in Africa work best when they were African-led.

“And there are opportunities and challenges at the same time. “In recent years, we have learned that diplomatic and peacemaking initiatives in Africa work best when they are African-led. “But the U.S. and the broader international community can still help and we are prepared to do so,’’ the statement added.

Why are Nigerians so negative minded? I don't see anything wrong in the article, they nailed it right on point! Any government would have a hard time tackling the challenges facing Nigeria. What did you expect them to say? That it would be easy to combat all the problems? That Buhari would magically wave a wand and all our problems would disappear? Come on guys get real!

Maybe it was because one of the campaign adverts in TV said that we should vote for someone who would guarantee our security.... that's what I thought gave us a lot of hope, so who are you to deny us our security as citizens of Nigeria after winning the elections?

teeowl:
I hope the aim of this group is NOT about seceding? Because it would just cause a civil war.

Not about seccesion,but a peaceful non violent cause,The Amalgamation expired last year, we want to determine our destiny as a people

Stop saying jargons, only God can guarantee security and safety. Even in advanced countries, people get killed on a daily basis. Buhari will definitely improve the security of the nation but it might take time, it's not something that can be done in a day.

and it was so easy to judge gej!

Of course it's easy to judge GEJ, what sort of president would call Boko Haram " Our brothers and sisters" ? If GEJ spent the last 4 years fighting Boko Haram as vigorously as he did during the last 6 months, he would have been seen as heroic, instead he chose to play politics with people's lives!

if Niger,chad and Cameroon had taken the report from Nigeria serious about using their countries as a launch base.we would not wait that long would we!
and let us not forget if the northern elites have been in suppoot of the Military.it would have been a whole lot different.
how many times did you hear the northern elites criticise the BH sect as compared to their press release about military operations.

Thank God Nigerians can realize that all of us uniting to get usa to stop bugging is for our interest . #nototribalism#notousa#onenaija#oneafrica#onelove

Why must other countries take responsibility for our inaction. The Office of the President is very powerful, Nigeria is not a country that should be intimidated, a strong president would know how to combat any form of insurgency. Who are the Northern elites? Where were they when Abacha was around? A strong leader puts mechanism in place to ensure the life of the citizens are secured!

You are calling Abacha! ehnn!!!!
I think you should not joke with the fact that our neighbours were harbouring our enemies and you Cannot launch an attack into another sovereign nation!

Hm

What they're saying is that they'll make protecting Nigeria difficult for Buhari.

Yes I mentioned Abacha, what Nigeria needs is discipline and a strong leader, when other countries respect us they won't dare harbour our enemies!

And Kerry was right in 2015, and he's just as right in 2020.
