That was a dastardly act. I commend the Vice President, Shettima for visiting the victims. It shows the commitment of the FG to the plight of the people in Borno.

I hope the people of the state will soon get back on their feet.

This is an over-exaggeration of the situation.

US troops in Nigeria does not equate to a loss of sovereignty. Are you saying if Nigeria collaborates with the US, we will lose our sovereignty? That is a dangerous narrative to push.

I am sure the FG is aware of what they are doing.

What do you mean by this guy?

Are you talking about the current president or the previous one?

This is a welcome development. Any terror group that wants to invade Nigeria should be ready for a fight.

I hope the FG will continue to communicate with the citizens whenever foreign airstrikes are carried out so we can be aware and prepared for any fallout.

I find it hard to believe that the US would just bomb Nigeria without the FG's consent. This sounds more like a narrative from the opposition trying to score cheap political points.

This is fake news. How can Trump bomb Boko Haram and ISIS in Nigeria when they are the same group that kidnapped and killed Christians?

God bless Mr President. God bless Nigeria.

I hope the critics of the president will see reason and stop the incessant attacks on the president.

The idea of ISWAP having a logistics hub in Sokoto is alarming. But we should be careful about interpreting foreign operations. The US has its own agenda, and we shouldn't blindly follow their narrative.

Why did they strike Nigeria without prior notice though?

This is a great development. Afenifere is right to commend the military action. Anything to help Nigeria and Nigerians should be welcomed.

I hope Kanu enjoys his Christmas meal. It seems the Igbos in Sokoto are doing their part as one of Kanu's own.

God is not a fool. He knows what he is doing.

When the time is right, he will also bring a leader that will fix the economy.

What is the EFF smoking?

Tinubu is a smart leader. I like that he tagged Trump. We need to show the world that we are united in our fight against terrorism, and that includes all ethnic groups.

I hope he reaches out to the Pope too.

Keyamo is really on top of his game. If there are serious allegations of corruption and inefficiency, reshuffling is a necessary step. The safety of our airspace is paramount, so I commend the Minister for taking swift action.

Trump is a madman. How can he bomb Nigeria? God bless our military and may the terrorists face the consequences of their actions.

I see the video shows Fulani and Boko Haram fighters running. The airstrike has nothing to do with the ethnic group.

Nigeria is a sovereign state and we dont need the US to tell us about terrorism.

What is Trump talking about? We dont need any foreign intervention in Nigeria. We are doing just fine and we will crush any terrorist group threatening our sovereignty.

Sokoto is a big state, so this terrorist camp is just one of the many they have.

What is the difference between a military action against terrorists and a military invasion of a country?

This is what people dont understand.

This is not a big deal. They just did it out of respect for the president and his family.

Gumi is spot on. The US has a history of ulterior motives when it comes to military interventions. We should be very cautious about allowing them to dictate the narrative in our fight against terrorism.

This is a non-issue. You guys should get over the Abuja-Lagos narrative already. What matters is efficiency and getting the job done.

I think the US is playing a dangerous game. They should stop meddling in Nigeria's affairs and focus on their own problems. Who do they think they are anyway?

Making voting compulsory in Nigeria is a great idea. This will make the politicians accountable and serve as a deterrent for their atrocities.

Anyone that refuses to vote should face the consequences.

I don’t understand this narrative about Nigeria being the least resilient nation. Is it not a recent report that said Nigeria is one of the fastest growing economy?

What is the game here?

This is very interesting.

Ooni is a great monarch and the custodian of our culture and tradition. I am proud of the Yoruba heritage.

Xpress payments is a confirmed parasite. FIRS should be able to explain how they came to appoint them.

As for the French MOU, it is most likely treasonable. It makes no sense to seek help after you already have a system in place.

I appreciate his concern, but what is he trying to achieve by this statement? Is he trying to turn Nigeria into another battleground like he did with Palestine?

I think the solution is to build more dams and invest in renewable energy. The government should also ensure the existing plants are well maintained and functional.

That was before the advent of Nnamdi Kanu and the IPOB terrorist group.

The Igbos of today are not the same as those of yesterday.

What is the basis for the claim that the North will not vote for APC?

Israel has been a great ally to Nigeria, especially in the fight against terrorism.

It is good to see the Prime Minister of Israel taking a stand against the atrocities being committed against Christians in Nigeria.
