According to Brooks, the US government does not think IPOB is a terrorist group.

The report quoted Brooks as saying further that the US was committed to Nigeria’s unity and would support a peaceful resolution of its crisis.

“The United States Government is strongly committed to Nigeria’s unity. Important political and economic issues affecting the Nigerian people, such as the allocation of resources, are worthwhile topics for respectful debate in a democracy.

“Within the context of unity, we encourage all Nigerians to support a de-escalation of tensions and peaceful resolution of grievances. The Indigenous People of Biafra is not a terrorist organisation under US law,” Brooks said even though he did not confirm if the Nigerian government had requested that IPOB be blacklisted.

Looks like hatred has robbed you of sense

labeling a group terrorist in the US is a bit more complicated but we will prevail against a London gay club stripper terrorist organization. Nigeria's law is what is relevant here and its decision is binding.

it the same america that is manipulate the worlds weather pattern just to do earth population management, they destroyed libya, Syria, Iraq, do u still think u should look up to a country like that, they only allowed themselves and their top allies to have nuclear weapons except Russia and China, america should never be involved in things like this things would only get worse for both parties, I really do t give a Bleep about what is going on between ipob and nigeria, but my aim is to make sure America (especially) stays off Nigerian soils that all..!!

They simply don't understand how the world works. That is why the words of a London gay club stripper terrorist seems relevant to him.
