Nnamdi Kanu is a British citizen. The british government don't care a hoot about Kanu otherwise there would have been moves to swap the two criminal suspects.

AK 47 are western weapons abi, old Soviet RPG that the boko harem and the m23 rebels, are Western weapons abi, go and see down,
Anybody could buy Ak 47 and give it to terrorists. Larfarge, a French company was indicted recently for doing that. Since they started investigating boko haram, traces of their funding has always been from the West. Ak 47 is everywhere in the black market

Like I told you before, you know nothing about geopolitics.

This is a big “L” for the US from an international perspective. It only shows the world where the real strength lies.

You can’t understand this level of negotiation as there are a lot attached to it.

In international politics, little things that a novice like you overlook matters a lot. I.e body language.

Notice how MBS of Saudi welcomed Biden vs how MBS welcomed XI.

Olaf scholz visit to China, his length of stay and the text that was read out.

XI scolding of Justin Trudeau at the G20 summit in Bali.

Seek wisdom.

Dude you didn't reply my last message after you gaffe with your Cambridge rubbish grin..
Anyways that's past let deal with the present matter.
The ex Marine was imprisoned for espionage, he was accuse for spying, that is the highest crime one can do in a foreign land,
The gun runner, was extradited from Thailand for gun running in Africa and in the middle East, go and read his indictment notice, the only reasons he was move to the USA was because he was Russian, he had not in any direct way cause harm to any USA citizens
The formal CIA director once perch for the gun runner should be exchange for formal NSA man sowdien but was rejected, was it that Russia didn't love the gun runner, no but he wasn't on the same level as NSA ex staff sowdien..
Russia and USA have the largest exchange of citizens in the world, the key is that both people been exchanged should be worth The other..
The USA will never exchange let say the Boston Marathon bomber, or the Nigeria Christmas day bombers,

Regarding body language, and length of stay of a visiting head of a state ,these things matters but they don't mean much,
Some leaders are charismatic, Putin, Boris, formal chancellor Mariel, Churchill Hitler, they can give good speech, look good or cameras, Or give good facial expression.
Xi of China, not the most charismatic but still remains one of the most powerful man in the world, so his biden,

Putin my real nigga
I hope American ass lickers can see through their hypocrisy now..Ukrainians are dieing in their numbers, their cities are getting burnt. But they have refused to compromise and negotiate. While the Us pushing them,leading them on quickly swapped a gun runner,someone considered to have sold weapons to terrorists for a Lesbian crack head. You can see that the US is not even using thesame aggressive energy it has encouraged Ukraine to use in engaging with Russia!

That’s to show how much value US place in their citizens. Russia exploited that weakness. Some serious mind games. Anyways US lost. A basketball player for an arms dealer�. Like you said, it’s all for the name

Don’t you know what is called a bad deal? Stop explaining what you don’t know. It’s a bad deal and that’s period. Even a former US president testify to that. Even CNN(a far left democratic media channel) on their front page are trying to do damage control to woo public opinion of how bad the exchange was.
Even the “hawkiest” war criminal “John Bolton” can testify to how bad a deal it was.

This is geopolitics, forget the propaganda news flying around. a lot is going on behind the curtains where world powers communicate, this prisoner swap just shows who the real boss is.

In geopolitics, you have to have the stronger hands and important cards to play at the negotiating table. Do you think if it was Germany at the negotiating end, the US will capitulate with this bad deal?

I have answered you question unless you did not get my answer. You can rephrase your question and I would answer it once again.
I also explained to you that the priority should be civilians, women and children.
So if a soldier is not yet exchanged it's understandable.
You do not leave your women in captivity and rescue your soldiers.


Who made it a priority that civilians, women and children should be the priority? Under what circumstances should they be the priority? How is Griner being a woman a priority in this case?

Bout was arrested in 2008.

Whelan was arrested in 2018.

Griner was arrested in 2022 and released in 2022.

The US had 4 years to exchange Whelan for Bout. What stopped the US from negotiating for Whelans release using Bout between 2018 and 2022 before Griner was arrested? Which women, children and civilian prevented this from happening?

Once again, your exact words:

"When you love your people, you would value a crack head above a high ranked terrorist. It's something Nigeria can learn from."

So been a formal president means his opinion is now acceptable cool a formal president who claim the same electoral system that brought him to power was now fraud because he lost, an idiot who claim corona virus wasn't real until he got it him self,
Who takes trumpet serious? Certainly not the good American folks.

You called it a bad deal, but not to president biden and his entire diplomatic team, and the president of UAE who broker the deal, and the families and wife of the basketball player.
You are not the one calling the shot, wait until you get to the corridors of power, then you can critized
A USA citizen was imprisoned in a foreign land, and today she is coming home.it doesn't matter if ex president likes it or you on nairaland, it done and she is coming home. And that is good business dude

E go soon clear for the comedian eyes. After the US has sold all it's old weapons to Ukraine which Russia is fully aware of, and the US defence corporations have made billions from the massacre of Ukrainians, Russia will start the war.

This one na just dress rehearsal.

women, children and civilians are always the priority in a sane country. Your citizens have much more value than ranked terrorist even if the person is a cracked head.

The US negotiates for all it's captive citizens. But negotiations do not work all the time.

The Russian government needed to get their man (Merchant Of Death) out of prison knowing that all American lives matters to their government, so they went for this innocent woman who her alleged crime was being in possession of a substance that contained marijuana oil.


This is like swapping your infinix smart 5 with an iPhone 14 pro max.

All American lives matter abi but many Americans are in prison for little crimes across the globe. Go to the American page and see some Americans furios on why she was used as a swap when there are Americans who have been held since.
