otawa:

There is no basis whatsoever for USA to include Nigeria in any list.

On this one, Mr Obama and his cronies got it very very wrong.

After 7days, we should use exact same measures on any AMERICANS visiting Nigeria.

The Nigerians going to USA if you dont like being 'unclothed-search, stay at home and develop your country.

I couldn't stop laughing, the truth, NO ONE CARES,
   I thought Nigerians were clamoring for a black American president, and when i never supported Obama here, i was almost stoned to Death via the internet/Nairaland, Now where is the love?

What do you expect from Obama,to spare Nigeria?You are joking.
Nigeria is still better than Somalia because the oil is still there.When the oil dry up,Nigeria will be better imagined than said.

Stop referring to this slowpoke of an Obama as a black. HE is a dumb hermaphrodite. HE is going the way of his maternal ancestors (Whites).

If you can not support NIgeria here, kindly and gently shut your mouth up because even the US are reading our comments here. Pls let us becareful of our comments.

Tell them

Instead of the senators wasting their time Giving the world strongest nation any form of Ultimatum,
 why not face the issues Pragmatically,
I doubt if we had a president, such moves would have happened quickly and easily.
Those senators are like sheep without shepherd, and would never be taken seriously.
  i once hinted, that the international community is against Nigeria, too many wrongs which the government has deliberately ignored.
   The Government needs to tackle this issues at home rather than making Noise,
 they know themsleves that they ve failed, they just want to paint a scenario - to tell us that they did something, They obviously know that we do not take their words seriously,

  Everything the Government has claimed will/could do, No single one has come to fruitification. i know there is no single Nigeria that thinks anything can come out of this burlesque and pasquinade.

Cowards die a thousand deaths. Keep ur mandibles sealed or go suck the dirty phallus of the Americans.

Toothless dogs are barking remove our names from the list.
Truth is that We dont have a government in nigeria or the govt is sick.

Secretz:

If USA have really labelled us a terrorist state, I think that's a bit far fetched, but I think they have every right to have concerns over our security measures or lack of.

maybe our President should come up with a list too with USA included

we should label them axis of evil and unfriendly states and warn our citizens to stop patronising these states as we wouldnt be able to guarantee their safety if anythn happens to them

i trust the BBC and CNN to propagate that kinda measure to the extent it will get the right audience in the US

if that doesnt work, then whatever they subject our citizens to will be meted out to them here in good measure, pressed down and shaken together

Senate Gives Obama's Admin 7-day Utimatum To Remove Nigeria From The Black List . . .

Preach it brother! preach it! ROTFLOL

It is not fair to have Nigeria on that list, but then it is also not fair to have a country as
big as Nigeria with a sick president who is not even around.

 Go straight to the center of 3rd mainland bridge, and show your support for our great nation. We have been supportin Nigeria in electoral fraud, corruption, prostitution, online fraud, Tribalism, Militancy, political jingoism, Religious  manifold, and whatever.
We are actually the cause of our problems,  we are just too happy to do any thing, we can't even stage a single protest, even the one's stage are done for their self-fish motives,  It most times leads to indoor discussions where ghana-must-go are passed, and the issue fought for is totally forgotten.

Anyone thinking, the recent incident is the only reason behind this pitiable issue should just take some time out,  Take a NAP

Well, this is a good reaction by the senate and govt agencies. At least they havent sat on fence

I propose full body searches including rectal examinations by stern looking MOPOLs in relatiation.  

Anybody who refuses will get 10 lashes of the koboko - shebi we are Shari'a terrorists?

Guys: Look at the bright side of things. At least Nigeria's Super Eagles qualified for the World Cup.

On a serious note, I wish the Senate would issue Yaradua a 7day ultimatum to show up or else power would be stripped from him and given to the vice. If only we react to our own personal issues as swiftly as we do foreign insults

May be yaradua self is in a terrorist camp busy training himself. Lol. B4 u no it the president will be trying 2 blow plane 4rm his anonymous location. Lma0

Obama was heavy handed in putting Nigeria on the list in the first place. How many of the other countries on the list would be there on th e back ofjust one citizen, trained and indoctrinated AWAY from their country had attempted to bomb a US plane?

The standards are certainly different when it comes to Nigeria. Obama does this in discrimination of a country which is as much Christian as it is Muslim. We do have a religious faction issue in Nigeria, but it has always been directed inward. Obama was far too eager to label us as a nation of over 140 million on the back of the actions of a singular person. When a Ghanaian was involved in the failed 7/7 bombing in london, did the UK put Ghana as a country on such a list? Would it not have seemed heavy handed if they had?

They should not forget that it was a Nigerian Muslim who also tried to warn them so that this would never have happened in the first place, doesn't that count at all? They are discouraging people from coming forward if all that ensues is a punishment.



He may be the president of the USA, but I think this was a bad decision. Just like his predecessor started a war based on fiction. I think he just wants an excuse to move away from nigeria for oil and replace her with other countries.
As for the ultimatum, its vjust foolish, what can they do about it?

  I couldn't agree less, If we had a President, This issue would not have escalated to it's present state

This listing is unnecessary and unfair but to fight it by giving ultimatum to the USA is a wrong approach.

 The Senators do not even have the power, that aside, they are using the last weapon first. Thoughtless
 bunch who act before reasoning. So what happens after seven days?. Nothing. You do not give order you
 cannot enforce.

 This is a cerebral war. A war of integrity of leaders. A war of upright  and patriotic leadership.
 All these in short supply here. By the time it comes to  banning Nigerians from visiting USA, Mark and the
 economic leeches in the NA will chicken out. They cannot sacrifice the good things and their properties in
 the USA for their countrys honor and integrity.

 I am not an Engineer, and I may be wrong,because the USA is internet, I know when the chips are down they
 will black us out on the internet if possible .You know what that means in fighting a war like this.  

  For Gods sake, this is a just war but being fought with a wrong weapon,  The  president  and our top brass inculuding
 the senate president should have summoned all living ambassadors, international experts Like Pro Bolaji Akinyemi,
 Mbu and orders to brain storm on this assue. While doing that, he should have also solicited the support of Britailn
 and other international power blocks. But then this is a country without president.

As I am writing this , these experts and top goverment officers should be locked up in a room finding a way out.
They wont do that, instead they are issueing useless ultimatum.I can bet, they will be scattered  all over the
place  enjoying with women of easy virtue. A country with such leadership is never respected.

  NOW CAUTION. THIS IS NOT A TIME SOME FANATICS START BURNING CHURCHES AND SOUTHERNERS ON THE PRETEXT
  OF FIGHTING AMERICA. DOING THAT DOES NOT HURT THEM IN ANYWAY.

has anyone actualy read the article in question cause by the resopnces here im gonna say no

The State Department lists four countries as those that sponsor terror: Cuba, Sudan, Syria and Iran. (these are the terrorist countries)

The other 10 countries of interest are Afghanistan, Algeria, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia and Yemen
(these countries do not support terrorism but the state department has concerns about the Al-Qaeda affiliates operating whithin said countries.  nigeria has an al-qaeda cell as well as a "taliban" cell.  get rid of these people and get off the list.  very simple)

Passengers from other countries could still face enhanced security for other reasons.

where is the f'cking cell lemme mobilise for them bombing

taliban in Nigeria? i hope not in Lagos

the bark of a toothless bull dog. if they fail to do that what happens. giving the US an ultimatum simply means shows how naive our leaders are. i will wait and see what good comes out of it.

If its about Al qaeda cells, then we should expect Kenya to be added then, since they are also there.
There are Alqaeda cells in across Europe also.They detained British people in Quantanamo bay, but I dont remember the UK being on any list.

Anyway, its done now, we are on the list and we wont be coming off any time soon. The Gov should deal with it diplimatically and not like an "area boy" with empty threats.

I hope the US is willing to work with Nigeria to end relious extremism also.

? ? ?

Or What? meeeen! bleep these our ignoramous leaders! Bunch of A******s.

THEY HAD BETTER DELIST NIGERIA OTHERWISE WE WILL, EM, EM,
YES. OTHERWISE WE WILL POSTPONE THE DEADLINE LIKE WE NORMALLY POSTPONE EVERYOTHER DEADLINE,
