U.S. Foreign Expert Urges Trump To Establish Emergency Military Base In Rivers by FuglyGurl(op): 6:26am On Nov 03, 2025
A foreign policy expert, Walid Phares, has called on the United States President, Donald Trump, to establish an emergency base in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

In a post on X, the American expert hailed the United States president for endorsing a possible invasion of Nigeria to States Department of War in quelling alleged Christian genocide in Nigeria.

He suggested that America’s intervention could be conducted “in the south, from Biafra to Plateau, to push back the jihadists and Boko Haram.”

He added that a lesser approach would be to use what he termed “air assets” against terrorists and other extremist groups.

Describing the Port Harcourt as “the main port city of the Biafra region,” Mr Phares stated that the creation of a military base in the city would discourage operation of the Boko Haram terrorist group, as well as other jihadist groups, from perpetrating both threats and killings of Christians and Muslims in Nigeria.

Mr Phares said, “Such a move would enable the rapid deployment of international humanitarian aid, particularly assistance from American churches” to Nigeria.

He stated, “President @realDonaldTrump has issued two strong statements condemning the jihadist attacks on Nigerian Christian communities and has directed the Secretary of War to prepare contingency plans for the ‘protection of communities’ in Nigeria.

“Should the federal government fail to stop the jihadists—as has been the case for years in northern and central Nigeria. In the meantime, targeted strikes against jihadist forces could also be considered.”

Nigeria is a sovereign nation. We don’t need any foreign military base in our territory, be it from the US or any other country. We will handle our issues ourselves without any foreign interference.

This strategic move will prevent destruction of critical infrastructure by disgruntled terrorists and agents of powers that be profiting from the genocide on Christians.

They should hurry up with a military base in Nigeria.
Kets tey something new... The comatose country has been occupied by neo colonialists and imperialists alike since certain sections of the country called in foreign forces ro fight for them during the civil war..
The British handed this their worn out colony to the fulanis and the Yorubas, and we can see how good they have run the place..
"A disgraced country" ala Trump!

We need foreign military base in Nigeria to keep the Islamic terrorists in check and revert to the POTUS for action ..
The Nigerian military has been infiltrated by terrorists and their sympathisers.

Finally, the agenda is agendering

No nation survives the level of division promoted by APC in this country

The ethnocentric division sponsored by Tinubu’s style of politics will ensure there are willing hands to work with the enemy.

At this time, the typical SSner does not care whether it US or Nigerian politicians controlling his oil as long as he is safe

The Americans are welcome not because we don’t understand what it entails but Nigeria never cared for her own

Why Rivers?

Is River state Plateau or Benue?

It seems like those who accused you of.being desperate to Grab Oil Wells actually knew what they were saying

They said Christians are being killed in North
Central but they want to establish a military base in Rivers State, the heart of Nigeria’s oil industry. Shouldn’t that tell you all that this is never about helping Christians?

but your governments don't solve any problem that doesn't affect the ruling class, and it's clear that your government have no political will to stop these unprovoked killings of innocent Nigerians, as these killings have been going on for too long.

When Tinubu was grabbing the Oil, what did you and I benefit, apart from trying to tax Nigerians to death from next year.

But you need Boko Haram Base in your country ?
You have no idea about the atrocities these Islamic extremists are committing every day. The U.S. has no intention of removing the Nigerian government, its focus is on eliminating terrorist threats across northern Nigeria

This statement does not originate from the U.S. government; it's a recommendation based on security concerns. Port Harcourt is likely to serve as a safe zone for their operations, free from jihadist threats. U.S owned oil companies are already operating in Nigeria, so the concern over them wanting our oil seems misplaced.

Absolutely no foreign interference allowed. We will solve our problems ourselves.
