Lets go back to memory lane and talk about ECOMOG IN LIBERIA.

NIgeria led other west african countries under a regional peace keeping mission in the 1990s when the LIberia civil war broke out.

Nigeria lost of a lot of its gallant soldiers including journalist who was murder by the Charles Taylor boys.

It was in the ECOMOG Headquarter that the PRINCE YOMIE JOHNSON faction came and captured the Late Liberian President, Samuel Doe.

They shoot him in the leg and carried him to their camp where they tortured him to death.

They also shot to death members of his military forces that visited the Ecomog headquarter.

If Nigeria can experience such embarrasing set back in Liberia.

Then we ought to praise the americans for their effort in Afghanistan.

It is not easy to bring peace to such countries that is strongly under religious control.

Nigeria did not fully succeed in bringing immediate peace to Liberia but we kept the struggle even at the expense of our financial troubles back home and political crisis.

They didn't help them. They permitted corruption, the Afghan security officers were never independent (always depending on US airstrikes and support). Now, they withdraw and expect a miracle?

Nigeria's scenario is totally different. It will be impossible for any Islamist to have their way here. What's the Population of muslim to Christians in Nigeria compared to what's obtainable in Afghanistan where Muslim population is over 90%?

In lagos alone, Christian/Muslim population is like 70/30. A Muslim friend differed when debating this sometime ago. I now sat him down, called his attention to number of Muslims in state schools compared to that of Christians and number of Muslims in private schools and their Christian counterparts. I now took him on a walk to a few streets in lagos where we counted churches and the number of mosques relative to size. Eventually, he concurred though reluctantly. What am I driving at? Religious war can't prevail here in Nigeria. It will hit Brickwall down south.

I'm not biased against any religion here. I'm Nigerian first, then my religion follows. You and I deserve some respect for whatever religion we practise. When we get to heaven, we will then know which is superior and which is not. Amazingly, nobody would be judged by the religion he or she practices but by our deeds while on earth, either good or bad. There's no religion in heaven. Nigeria isn't Afghanistan or any other place where Islamist terrorists can hold sway.

Must Usa be the one to be keeping peace forever in Afghanistan?
my thought exactly,I think people should stop making it look like america failed..they did all they could but it appears the country itself has already surrendered so what choice do they have other than to leave and allow the taliban take full control

Thank you. I don't know what they want America to do. Stay in Afghanistan for another 20 years? The result will still be the same.
Afghan military total surrender without a fight shows they are even sympathetic to Taliban.
Any country that does not like how America pulled out should send their army to fight people who are mad.

Lol... I laugh you because you don't really understand what you want. The name Switzerland just sweet you for mouth. My dear the Swiss don't have what it takes to police the world. It takes a lot to become the type of force US, Russia and China has become in international politics. Don't be surprised if your wish is finally granted you'll see terrorists have a field day, and bully nations like North Korea invade South Korea with impunity because no one to checkmate them

What are you talking about? Had America remained in Afghanistan, would taliban have won the war? Did they win while they( america) were still on ground? Your comment is meaningless. The narrative is simple...any nation which America withdraws her support from would be in a disarray. Let them pull out of Saudi Arabia let's see if people would be going to hajj ever again. The Islamist terrorists operate like a sect and do not represent the real islam . They're( Americans) the reason the world is still this peaceful

Afghanistan is a sovereign state which have the sole power to rule themselves, USA withdrawing their troops is normal, they have to protect their own territory too. War is at their door step, all in the name of world power they should now loose their grip abi ffk needs check up. Usa is not a saint too, checkout what happened during the fall of Berlin wall. You will understand better

How is it a show a shame. The Afghans wanted Taliban and they got their wish. How can a 300,000 strong military of Afghans with sophisticated weapons given to them by NATO, Britain, Germany, India, US, Australia e.t.c fall in less than a week of US pull out if not that the majority of Afghans themselves wanted the Taliban back.

Was it not on this same front page that Afghan men (not Taliban) were rejoicing about marrying four wives.

If the North in Nigeria wasn't so sympathetic to Boko Haram too, the war against Boko Haram wouldn't have dragged for this long. Boko Haram would repent, return to Boko Haram, then repent again. Going and returning as they wish.

Maybe Buhari can send the Nigerian Armed forces to help fight for the Afghans. Lol.

Taliban Afghans and Afghans (already practicing Sharia law even while under NATO and US occupation) can now sort issues out among themselves. One can't even tell the difference as Taliban are Afghans themselves.

America's overseas military actions are guided strictly by American interests. Nothing more, nothing less. They haven't pretended about this.

GUIDED STRICTLY BY AMERICAN INTERESTS THAT ARE SHROUDED IN GUILE, DECEIT, LIES AND FALSE PROMISES OF DEMOCRACY AND FREEDOM.

THEY LIE TO INVADE A TARGETED COUNTRY,
THEY LIE WHEN CARTING AWAY THEIR RESOURCES,
THEY LIE TO THEIR OWN CITIZENS WHEN THEY GET TIRED OF THE BLOOD LETTING,
THEY LIE TO EVERYONE FROM BEGINNING TO END.
THE HALLMARKS OF REAL CRIMINALS

SO YOU'RE WRONG ABOUT THEIR NOT PRETENDING.
