Mike Arnold, former mayor of Blanco, Texas, escalates his public campaign against Nigeria's Sultan Muhammad Sa'ad Abubakar III, questioning his 2003-2006 military intelligence role in Pakistan amid concurrent Nigerian-Taliban links and the rise of similar tactics in northern Nigeria.

The post highlights documented crises in the Sokoto Caliphate, including 99.8% of Nigeria's 2025 violence against Christians and Muslims per Open Doors data, and $9 billion annual illegal mineral extraction losses as reported by Nigerian lawmakers.

Despite the Sultan's dismissal of allegations as "baseless," Arnold's queries, now covered in Nigerian newspapers, urge direct answers to address international scrutiny from U.S. figures like Sen. Ted Cruz and President Trump.

Let's keep asking @sultan_ofsokoto these simple questions:

- What, if any, direct contact did you have with Al Qaida, ISIS, Taliban and other global jihad organizations while you were stationed as a Nigerian Brigadier General of Intelligence in Pakistan/Afghanistan during the war - at the same time Nigerian fighters were captured waging war alongside Taliban fighters? If you had contact, what was the nature of it?

- How is it that some of these same groups now operating in your caliphate?

- How do you explain that the tactics of these groups, beforehand not seen in Nigeria, came to your caliphate to be used against innocent Nigerian citizens concurrent with your return?

- Do you acknowledge the documented and now internationally recognized long-running mass killing and displacement of Christians and peaceful Muslims, of which 99.8% occurs in your historic caliphate?

- Do you want it to stop? What actions have you taken to stop it? Where are the fatwas against it? Where and when have you used your power to protect your citizens and subjects against these attacks?

- If you want it to stop, and it hasn't, are you fully impotent? Or is there another explanation?

- What about the looting of (per the Nigerian Govt.) at least $9B USD/year of minerals from the lands within your caliphate -- do you want it to stop? What actions have you taken to stop it? Do you personally benefit from it?

These are just a few simple questions. This would be just the warm-up in International Criminal Court. Why wait till you are possibly on the witness stand as a defendant to answer them? It would be easier for you to answer them now. And it would not be much more time consuming than to issue another ridiculous official response saying you're not going to respond.

Why keep these questions open if you have nothing to hide? If you are indeed innocent in all this, why not simply answer these questions and set the record straight?

Your silly "non" response, I'm told, was on the front page of 4 Nigerian newspapers today. Clearly I'm not alone in seeking answers to these simple questions.

You certainly don't need to respond to me directly -- simply issue a statement addressing these and clear the air once and for all. Why not?

And no, nobody in Nigeria or on earth trusts the supposed findings of the corrupt, compromised, and (some possibly) complicit Nigerian Senate. So please don't throw out that non-denial again.

The innocent people in your caliphate, Nigeria and the World deserve answers.

We will get them, one way or another.

Why are you so afraid to answer them now?

Maybe now the north will sit up and take responsibility for the insecurity in their land and stop milking the country dry via defence budget , security votes and illegal mining of resources up north without sharing the proceeds with the rest of the nation.

Let's keep asking Mike Arnold I'd it was the Sultan that was using USAID to fund Bokoharam in Nigeria?.

Racoon:
Meanwhile, kindly ask the Sultan to answer the questions. Evidence full ground. Don't be an follow follow for nothing.

Can you imagine?

Mike Arnold must be a CIA agent to know deeper secrets like this.


Sultan of Sokoto and Emilokan regime are in deep shyyyt mhen




Seems the time for Nigeria to be liberated from the hands of bloodsucking demons have finally come, Hallelujah

sreamsense:
That's a baby way of thinking. Citing irrelevant unprovable excuses. If not because Muslims married plenty wives and born plenty children in poverty, will they have needed external help in the first place talkless of misusing the fund?

If USA pity how you born children in poverty and how Muslims children are becoming raw materials for easy recruitment into banditry and Islamic terrorism, and give monetary help in form of USAID to fund education of your children, but instead your Muslim brothers diverted such money to fund terrorist camps knowingly or unknowingly.

Are you going to blame USA tht pity how you born children into poverty that are becoming raw materials for terrorism and banditry or you hold Muslims that diverted the money for misuse. Is it the duty of USA that gives you money to know each receiver to their family house.

If truly US fund Bokoharam and other terrorists, then to come openly and collect another one for this year. Tell Bokoharam and other Islamic terrorists to come with their ID cars as Islamic terrorists to collect for this year. There is no sense in your submission, it is just an Islamic propaganda to cover up criminality of your people

helinues:
STFU. What's your interest in Nigeria that made you to abandoned the interest of USA you come from?

Funnily, if people want to talk about crime in USA, it has always been gun violence but that's not what's even topping the list of crimes in USA, the number of missing person per year in USA have been so worrisome for years yet both the government and the citizens would rather be pokenoising into others affairs

We thank God it is not Obi that is the president of this country by now especially since we know he is not a problem solver. Simplest party problem he can't solve. God will give our able and active president Tinubu wisdom to solve these problems including that of ipob/ESN
