If you hate your country, you'll never succeed in it.

America have their peculiar problem, worse than Nigeria's.

They shouldn't lord over us and can't dictate to us.

They're only after what they can get out of Nigeria resources.
Some of you don't know a jack because of the stupid hatred you have for your country.

We reside here and know they don't give a Bleep about you or stupid religion.
They're after your resources.
What resources? They have 10x the amount of oil you have, they don't even buy your oil anymore. No Christian in Nigeria in their right senses will be against Trump showing interest in the daily and endless carnage against Christians in Nigeria.

Honestly, I pray nothing of such ever happens.

Tinubu just needs to sit up, put his house in order, and get the country working with the citizens rallying behind him.

Invaders like America like to capitalise on disunity and continuous widespread anti-government activities or protests.

The biggest leap he can and must make is to sort out this embarrassing security situation... It's a shocking mess.
Truth is, it is not easy to sort out.

It is too widespread and entrenched.

Nigeria simply doesn't have the military manpower.

That’s good. Let the useless Nigeria goverment continue to lie and play politics with human lives. The same way they lied about Endsars.
Unfortunately, it can’t work these days of Social Media.
If it was in the 70s or 80s, the new’s agencies won’t publish most things that we see today on social media

We?!! Lol...!

Tinubu might yet be presiding over one the most divided nations, actually more divided than when Buhari was in office.

At least, Buhari even had the entire North rallying behind him... Jagaban can't even Unite the South.


It's such cracks that America is already exploiting.
Clearly said, clearly the fact.

Wait until after investigations.
If found to be true I can assure you,there is a big problem for the Nigerian government.

Yes America can help but the people dancing here will be sorely disappointed at the outcome because they don’t care about the killings, they think America is coming to be their political babysitter. America will bomb certain areas back to the stoneage and will help divide Nigeria for a permanent solution since we’re not the same to begin with and the insecurity has been going on for 15 or more years.

If America genuinely want the killings to stop and they can take actions to stop it, then it's fine. But if there are hidden agenda behind this, then we have to be watchful. We don't want Nigeria to be like Sudan

Nonsense then African leaders should sit up and give their people responsible Leadership. Do you know over 200 people died in one night in Benue Attack. Benue State is it not a predominant Christian State. Let African Leaders sit up.

Me my prayer is that this should lead to Igbos having their Biafra. They need to be living together, to themselves and let the rest of the country re-define itself. IF THIS WILL LEAD TO IGBOS MIGRATING BACK TO SOUTH EAST IT IS FINE BY ME.

The US under Mr Biden left Afghanistan in a hurry after several years of unsuccessful attempts to defeat islamists in the country.

In previous years, Russia spent I think 2 decades in Afghanistan fighting and lost thousands of men doing so. It too left the country with its tail between it legs.

My point is dispersed and scattered banditry, terrorism,and in Nigeria's case, mixed with cattle rustling, illegal mining, and farmer - herder insurgency are very difficult to defeat.

Niger State alone is the size of many countries in Europe. And then there are other huge states across the North where the Nigerian government machinery is simply not present in adequate numbers, if any. That has been the case since independence.

If you put the entire Nigerian army in Niger state alone, they will be grounded there, like the US and Russia were in Afghanistan, and still not completely eradicate banditry and terrorism in that State.

While the army is grounded in Niger, how about Benue, Bornu, Kaduna, Sokoto and several other states.

It is a complex situation.

The army is trying, but Nigeria simply doesn't have the number of military personnel to cover every where.
Join them then.

Truth be told
I think President Trump has sinster motives.

Yes they are killings in Nigeria but it is not religious.
I think the motive is far deeper. Americans has had government shutdown for 31days now yet the President of America is more interested in Nigeria.
In most cities in America at least 5-12 people are shot and killed every week, infact recent data shows that homicide rate in united state of America is 270 to 300 weekly! (1 person every 31mintes) yet President Trump is more interested in Nigeria killings.

The question is what does the President Trump want from Nigeria?
The same America that collaborated with NATO and claimed Gaddafi is a "dictator" and they invaded Libya at the time the country was growing exponentially in human and capital development. Today Libya is in ruins. They stole from Libya and destroy the country.
The former Chief of Defence, General Chris Musa, once asked who are the sponsors of this terrorist in Nigeria? The answer came from a United States senator that reveals it was USAID of America funding boko haram and the same Trump has been silent
You can't eat your cake and have it.
Africans have allowed themselves to be used simply because they can't think for themselves and their generations to come.

Why would an African nation invade another African nation to kidnap an African with a British passport, just for talking?

How tragic can a country become when those meant to protect its future steal it instead? Yet you want people to not hate such institution.

Since independence, the promise was simple: self-rule would bring fairness, transparency and a chance for ordinary people to prosper. Instead, what we have is a system designed to extract value from the many and reward a few. Public resources , the salaries, the schools, the hospitals, the roads , are turned into private fortunes. The consequences are obvious: a hollowed-out state and a generation forced to survive by any means.

This corruption isn’t random. It’s structural. Powerful networks , call them oligarchs, call them political machines, capture institutions and bend them to serve private ends. When governors and officials take billions and walk free, when suspected killers and terror financiers move with impunity, when policies like subsidy removal come with higher taxes and greater borrowing but no visible public benefit, the message to every citizen is clear: the system is rigged.

Look at what follows. Qualified, hardworking Nigerians struggle for decent jobs while people with forged credentials occupy critical offices. Public funds disappear and infrastructure remains a promise. Young people, blocked from honest opportunity, are pushed into schemes and survival crimes. Society frays. Trust evaporates.

This country didn’t become broken overnight. It is the cumulative effect of choices , by leaders who put personal enrichment above public duty, and by institutions that fail to check them. Accountability must be more than noise. It must be real: criminal investigations that lead to convictions, transparent budgets, independent oversight, and leaders held to the same rules as everyone else.

We can do better. It starts with demanding evidence of spending, supporting institutions that investigate and prosecute abuse, and refusing to accept impunity as a norm. The road back will be hard, but change is possible when citizens insist on it.

The solution to all this is that the Islamists want a country of their own. A country where the strictest form of Islam would be practised. Create out of Nigeria Islamic Republic. North West and North East are ready for this. Then any adjoining States wishing to join can. The killing may not stop until this is achieved.

Anybody that commits are crime against the United state will be hunted down no matter where he or she goes on the planet.
If anyone advocate for killing of another or spread hated such person need to be arrested and persecuted.
