I just returned from a Congressional delegation to Nigeria with @HouseAppropsGOP. While there, we visited Benue State.

We met with Bishops Anagbe and Dugu and Tor Tiv. We met with suffering IDPs who are all Christians. They are forced to live in camps that are regularly… pic.twitter.com/pMRpYhNMWW

FreeStuffsNG:
I am not sure that you comprehend the report.

The soldiers were not on combat mission and probably on routine ECOWAS patrol with no previous hostile notice given by Burkina Faso because we are not at war with them. Besides, if it's a combat mission, you can't go on such a combat mission with a single jet. There will be back up jets just like we did when Benin Republic invited us to protect them from criminal coupists.

You are obviously a novice in international affairs and diplomacy and haven't been following up the p
The fact is that the impostor coupist in Burkina Faso is apprehensive for obvious reasons that Nigeria can dislodge him from power.

Burkina Faso will not dare face Nigeria and ECOWAS for obvious reasons. They have been at the magnanimity of ECOWAS countries on humanitarian grounds. Nigeria still bailed out Niger recently with about 400 tankers of fuel when they got stranded. Burkina Faso, Mali are impoverished and landlocked, and like Niger, still using sea ports of ECOWAS countries to recieve everything they depend on and even export.

If this report is true, I will not be surprised if our aircraft and soldiers are already home.

They don’t want the Benin experience from Nigeria and the rest of ECOWAS.

It's nice to know that ECOWAS is now taking the fight to them after Benin.

Jakpon:
Which Burkina Faso? Una go just dey cap wetin no make sense. Why don't you leave Nigeria and relocate to Burkina Faso.

Those ibos advocating for a military take over in Nigeria, should first start with their five south east states. Let them remove their Governors : Alex Otti, Hope Uzodinma, Charles Soludo etc, and then appoint Hausa officers as states administrators. Let's start from their first

QuinQ:
Set up for what? Was he the only one around?

Dpsychologist:
A teacher's authority makes any relationship with a student exploitative, regardless of who initiated it. A minor cannot give free consent in that dynamic. Confidence or wealth doesn't change that—the adult is always responsible for maintaining the boundary. The law exists to protect children from this exact abuse of power.

We4all:
Let's be honest, though IBB ain't no saint, Mamman Vatsa was a traitor for planning a coup again IBB, his best friend which could have gotten him executed.

And knowing that the penalty for coup was death, Vatsa's execution was justified. Unless he was set up and innocent of the charges. But findings proved that he was guilty as charged.

SpencerForbes:
I seriously doubt that angle. I think the power dynamic is actually the opposite way round!
The boy has significantly less to lose (reputation, career, status) compared to the teacher. This means she has to be the one constantly funding or supporting him just to ensure he keeps their secret locked down.

Secondly, since the teacher is reportedly based in the USA, I genuinely wonder what the boy, operating locally (I assume), could possibly offer her that would be so valuable it would completely becloud her sense of reason and self-preservation.

CJStarz:
No female teacher in Nigeria will ever condescend so low.

Dpsychologist:
When a teenage girl is abused, society rallies in outrage. Yet when a teenage boy is exploited by an older woman, the narrative shifts suddenly it’s “impressive,” “a flex,” or even “something to be praised.”

This is not empowerment. It is abuse.
This is not maturity. It is exploitation.
This is not consent. It is predation.

At 16, a boy is still a minor. His “enjoyment” or perceived skill does not erase the fact that he is being taken advantage of by an adult.

The double standard is glaring: we condemn abuse when it happens to girls, but trivialize it when it happens to boys. That hypocrisy silences male victims, normalizes abuse, and perpetuates a culture where men’s mental health and advocacy are dismissed.

Until we recognize that boys can be victims too, and that predators can be women as well as men, we will continue to fail half of our children.

This is not about gender wars.
This is about justice, protection, and humanity.

Certainly!
Oro DO NOT Terrorise people! Advance Notice of more than a week is always given to warn Women/Children and uninitiated to stay-off certain section of the community where the Oro rite will be performed. This is not unlike the way Muslims close certain street for Jumat.

I understand your fear and concern.
When the Eyo Masqueraders (My favourite) were banned - later the ban was commuted to "strict restrictions" because of their excesses - it was because they have no boundaries/authorized permission and incidents of rival clashes was rife.
Now, Oro/Eyo don't just come out - they have their Seasons/Occasions, Timetable(published/manually announced) and Police permission.

This is the major reason why we should encourage non-indigenes to respect the tradition of their host community instead of claiming unwise right, left and center especially when such Traditions has customary law backing.

I like your mature and constructive criticism. Unlike some of the very important idi-hots that dotted my mentions. Thank you.

I stopped taking Rufai seriously when I saw him drive a cyber truck. I don't know how much Arise pays him but I know damn well it is not enough to buy that car.

Who else has noticed Fake and Manipulated LIKES on Nairaland. 🤔
You see some sense-less posts attracting many LIKES. 😁

helinues:
Before the Trump's noise, there was a plan to change the security chiefs. The investigation about those behind the insecurity in Nigeria most especially the arms dealers, gun runners.
Those are the people who ran to the lobbyists to divert our attention. Hands will soon touch them.

The alleged coup attempt was within the military to stop the investigation one way or the other, when that failed, they reached out to Trump.

Trump has kept quiet about the issue as he has been lectured about the reality on ground.

Are there unjust killing in Nigeria? Yes

Are christians or any other faith targeted: Hell No

China won't fight for you but will trade weapons for resources
APC brought us to this sort of dark international politics to influence local regime change, they should pul us away from the mess

Where in the world has American government been able to restore security before? They went Libya, Iraq and Afghanistan but they left those places more insecure than they met them. Do you know how many people have die in USA to gun violence only in 2025? Over eleven thousand people have die to just gun violence in USA alone in 2025. You can Google it yourself. You are depending on who can't provide security for her own citizens to come and rescue you. ;Dit is purely witchcraft.
If Nigeria government can't provide security for her citizens then no one would....
