The news we have been hearing is that the U.S has been invited to help us sort out our security problems as regard to insurgency. Well the news has been met with happiness and relief in some quarters,while some have been skeptical about it and i fall under the second category.
The U.S may be working as a world police today,but it is important to check if their role as the world police has been a success especially as regards to countries facing security problems.
Let's start with Iraq, the U.S invaded Iraq with the fathom news that Saddam Hussein had biological weapons which is a security problem to Iraq,its neighbors and the world at large. Today Iraq is in ruins,fighting terrorism,fighting sectarian division while the U.S benefit from their oil.
Libya, the U.S instigate NATO with threats and back channel politics to join in the invasion of Libya with the fathom news that Ghadafi was seriously cracking down on democratic protest and today,Libya is fighting terrorism.fighting sectarian divisions while the U.S firms are benefiting from their stolen oil.
Syria, the U.S have been at the forefront of several sanctions given to Syria both collectively as NATO and individually as a country. At the moment,they are training rebels who they claimed to have vetted to take over the country. Today,Syria is fighting terrorism,sectarian violence while U.S in this case,buys it major allies Israel, Saudi Arabia and the rest a breathing space.
Afghanistan, the U.S trained and outfitted the likes of Bin Laden to help fight off the Russians from Afghanistan by so doing, armed the talibans who are today,terrorizing both Afghanistan and Pakistan.
There are so many more examples of such interest by the U.S which has resulted to the destruction of the countries in question.
President Buhari and his policy makers should seriously scrutinize this said offer before the relative peace experienced in a greater part of the country evaporates.

This is worth discussing

Very much. We tend to ignore history thereby allowing it to repeat itself again
