another beggar for v1olence calling for rescue like they called MNK and Ekpa…. Once Trump intervenes, north go dey hot for Igbos and southerners . Their properties

Are you threatening the Igbos and Southerners because Trump wants to attack Fulani bandits and Boko Haram?

sreamsense:
Even though I am not in anyway in support of Gumi who himself is not clean as bandits have confidence in him revealing secret with him. I trust Tinubu doesn't need his advice, Biafra gra-gra and Gumi radicalized advice is never best way to go.

However, to our ipob/ESN mentality based man; if you don't want Nigeria government to depend on foreign Aids, what has your region brought to table for Nigeria aside ipob/ESN, baby factory, fakeness and illegal drug dealings?

All these from one region chase away foreign investors that would have contributed to Nigeria growth. You can't even grow your 5×5 region equivalent to Oyo state despite huge allocations being collected since 1960. If not because of south west that is peaceful and serve as gateway that bring foreign investors and wealth to Nigeria, Nigeria would have been more poorer. God will continue to bless Nigeria
I hope you are not one of those suddenly calling for unity because of the threat from Trump. You insult the SE region and insinuate that they have nothing to offer and yet each time someone from the SE expresses the desire to leave this shit hole, people like you develop high blood pressure and threaten war. If the SE has nothing to offer, you should be happy to support secession of the SE.
On the other hand, if you and your people want to secede, nobody would be threatening war because you don't have anything to offer.

In my recent post where I mentioned Dangote refinery as a headache to United States, someone said how? Now listen 👂

‎For decades, the script was simple:

‎Africa drills the oil,
‎the West refines it, ‎
and Africa buys it back at triple the price, with gratitude. Imagine that!

‎Now Dangote came with a 650,000-barrel-per-day “plot twist.”

‎-The first migraine hit when U.S. fuel export numbers started twitching. West Africa, that loyal customer, suddenly said, “No thanks, we’ll refine it at home.” Imagine selling umbrellas in a desert, that’s how America feels right now in the diesel market.

‎-Then came the second headache, the petrodollar sneeze. If Nigeria starts trading refined products in naira, yuan, or even “AfriPay,” that’s a direct jab at Uncle Sam’s global ATM. The dollar doesn’t like competition; it catches inflation fever when others sneeze independence.

‎-Third pain: The geopolitical thermometer just went up. Africa’s biggest refinery means fewer oil tankers from Texas, and more from Lagos to Lome, under African control. That’s not energy trade; that’s energy freedom. And freedom, apparently, is bad for business.

‎-Fourth dose: The U.S. isn’t happy seeing Nigeria shaking hands with China and India on refinery deals. It’s like watching your ex build a mansion with your rival. The refinery runs on Chinese funding and Indian technology, two things America used to monopolize.

‎-And finally, the fifth and deadliest headache, the symbolism.
‎Dangote didn’t just build a refinery; he built a mirror, showing Africa what it could’ve been decades ago if it stopped outsourcing its future.

‎Now Washington can’t just send “economic advisers” and “development loans” with fancy conditions anymore. Africa might soon say, “Thanks, but we’ve got this.”

‎So Dangote’s refinery isn’t just refining oil, it’s refining pride, power, and perspective.
‎And for the first time, the biggest gas leak in the room isn’t from Nigeria, it’s from America’s nerves.

Are you aware that Dangote imports crude oil from USA to feed his refinery?
Dangote's refinery is definitely not the reason Trump wants to invade.
Can you explain why the APC administrations under Buhari and Tinubu have failed to do something about the continued killings and kidnappings all over the country?

Hello Trump defender.

Trump never say he will attack Jihaddist if he had said so we won't be these angry with him but for him to say "because of fake genocide (created by a loser called yes daddy) Trump opened his mouth to say he might use US army to attack Nigera" so don't twist the narrative.

Tell him we are waiting for him and his army.

Gumi is right

1st there is no Christian genocide in Nigeria. Trump and his cohorts should have investigated the situation and had discussions with Nigerian officials before jumping on social media to rant nonsense

2. Trump is trying to bully Nigeria because Tinubu refused Trump dump his deported criminals in Nigeria

3. This is a time for Nigerians to stay united and show that a tyrant that is abusing human rights in his country USA cannot bambooze a Sovereign country like Nigeria with 220 Million people. We wont bow to neocolonialism.

Trump did the same in South Africa by falsely claiming there was white genocide, till date, US cannot prove it
Time for Nigeria to stay unitedhuh Just pray that Trump does not carry out the threat to invade.
Buhari and Tinubu have done a terrible damage to the unity of Nigeria with their brazen and open tribalism and lack of will to tackle insecurity.
Nigeria is not South Africa. South Africa is a real country. Nigeria is not.

What still amaze me is the Nigerians believing Trump is interested in Christains affair in Nigeria lol.
The ratio of killing to Christains killingratio in US way higher than Nigeria. (In 50 killings in Nigeria only 2-3 are against the Christian, In US in the rate of 50 48 if not 49 are against Christians)

Nigeria should sacntion them, you can't dictate for a sovereign state.
After the prisoner deposit saga.
Trump has accused South Africa of White killing, Trump as accused Venezuela of Drug, Nigeria of selective killings, Iran of Nuclear Advancement.
Yet every single accusations happens in the US everyday.

Forget Nigeria trading crude for refine oil, direct exchange for yuan instead of dollar isn't affecting is a big lie. Currently America is on the thread of lose base on the dependency of Nigeria on themselves rather the US.
Mark my word the invasion of Nigeria by the US is going to be a great fall for the United States.

I trust in God and I trust in Nigeria governance as a process and I AM NOT A BETRAYAL OF MY SOIL.
GOD BLESS NIGERIA
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT BOLA AHMED TINUBU
GOD BLESS AFRICA
You trust in an administration that is openly practicing tribalism and dividing Nigerians? An administration that is doing it's best to destroy democracy by massive rigging of elections? An administration that is doing it's best to to institute a one-party state in Nigeria?
You are definitely unpatriotic. If America decides to invade Nigeria, the Nigerian military will quickly surrender because the country is too divided to wage a war with a foreign country, especially a super power.
If your President cannot do something about the wave of killings and kidnappings, he should step aside.

Savenigeria2023:
Now you want all Nigerians to jointly repudiate the narrative. Since when did Nigerians start acting jointly?

When it’s time for election, we remember we belong to an ethnic group

When Tinubu chose a Muslim-muslim ticket, even popular Christian pastors backed the ticket at the expense of their Christian congregation due to ethnic sentiments without minding the global optics

Where every event, policy and news is analyzed with ethnic coloration

Nigeria is bound to be Balkanized either by external forces or internal implosion. No nation survives the level of internal division that exists in the country as willing hands abound to support the enemy. The country has been irredeemably damaged by evil politicians.
You spoke my mind. I was wondering what the guy meant by "all Nigerians".

Debt is needed to speed up infrastructure development.

Any coup at this point will be the end of Nigeria. We either practice democracy or we go our way. The era of illegitimate northern rule through military coup is over.

Again, President Tinubu needs to fast track the reform of the military. The military must be decentralized with military equipment equally shared to the six regions. The era of over concentration of military weapons in the north must come to an end immediately.
Are you sure we are practicing democracyhuh In a democracy, the people are allowed to elect their leaders. Not so in Nigeria where the results of elections are usually written before voting starts.
