After bombing them have you removed the Koran ideology in the minds of millions of Muslim in Nigeria ... Once there are Muslims there would be terrorists cos Koran told them to hate people of the book and always do jihad

The best thing...Divide Nigeria ,let the Christian East and Niger Delta stay on their own yoruba and Northern Muslim can stay on there own
continue the bombing campaign

no you can't be killing them what you have to do are two things

1. Deradicalise them
2. Ban the religion cos it has a way of making them hate every religion
3. Give them their own country so they can kill off themselves


These are the three options

Personally, I prefer a structured United Nigeria. We have the potential, human and natural resources to dominate the world.
A reformed Nigeria where we have something like the American type of electoral college. This will curb the child voting and population fraud the North is using to checkmate Southern political leaders.

Secondly, each state should control their resources and pay a certain amount to the center. If Kano, Zamfara & co like they should continue to use HISBAH police to destroy alcoholic beverages while waiting to collect tax revenue from alcohol (hypocrite they're). Dem go wake up by force.

Thirdly, state policing is a must. You can't have islamic terrorist attacking your state while you look helpless cox you cannot mobilize the police. The last attack on Benue according to media reports lasted for two days. Yet, the there was no assistance from the security agents.

Meanwhile, at the bolded in green... I think Tinubu will agree with you. grin

Let me respond to the last part about state police. While state police looks a very good option, be reminded of the concern of the former head of NLC (Ayuba Wanna) regarding state police. It happened at a time when a particular sitting governor hired non state actors to disrupt protests. It was a very bad event.

Ayuba Wabba while arguing against state police stressed that if a governor can do such, how much worse will he do if he has the control of the police in his hands.

I agree with Ayuba Wabba, state police should not be allowed. The People will suffer.

I thought you would justify and welcome any possible US military intervention in Nigeria. What happened to your support and loyalty to the US?
I would like a military intervention in Nigeria.. not a unilateral action that Trump is saying but a combined Operations with Nigerian troops.. especially in training and Aerial surveillance

At the bolded, we don't have too many alternatives. Abuse of executive powers can also be attributed to the FG. In the past we had sitting elected governor in Nigeria kidnapped. Amaechi & Ngige are prime examples. In both cases the police received order from Abuja to stand down.

Which other option do you suggest if the state cannot control their internal & domestic security? Maybe gun ownership should be made legal for all citizens, machine guns & automatic rifles.

Many a times i have been deep in a "brown study" and wondered how individuals could show so much empathy to civilians in Gaza while also cheering on Putin's destruction in Ukraine!!. All my ruminations on these matter never made sense to me!!

After much thought, i came to the conclusion that two distinct factors were driving such irrational thinking. I have stated it before here on the thread. let me reiterate myself for empahsis sake!! hate for the West!! and religion!!. These two double edge sword with the latter being more potent are the driving force influencing such behaviours!!

It is now axiomatic that some of those who were clamouring for gaza civilians were simply influenced by religion. Because i find it strange that the same set of fellows who have been hullabaloo on the thread day and night for the likes of russia, iran, and China to intervene in the "perceive killings and genocide of civilians in Gaza and now vehemently resisting the mere idea of an external intervention in Nigeria while camouflaging under the pretense that they want the country sovereignty to be intact

Bearing in mind that terrorists and other militias have been breaching our borders for some time now. In fact, our borders are as accessible and spacious to foreign elements as a "lady of the night" working tool!!.

P.s Trump is not coming!! That's a fact, a military intervention by the US is not feasible. Not now, not in the foreseeable future.

But at least what we can gain from this debacle is that it has become obvious without doubt, that expect the Christians and other minorities in the northern part of Nigeria fend for themselves nobody will help them. Not the Nigeria government nor the military


Another fact that gain from this debacle is that Nigeria won't celebrate 100 years as a sovereign nation together.. She won't even see 80 years together. We as a country is sliding down the slope of disintegration..the question is will it be a peaceful separation? or civil war??

Meanwhile, this is a throwback video of Ribadu (NSA) begging US to help end insecurity in Nigeria.

https://www.nairaland.com/8555743/nuhu-ribadu-begging-u.s-end#137379696

In his words:

“Let’s stop these terrorists, let’s stop these bandits, let’s stop these extremists — let’s stop them. The world can do it. Let us be given back our freedom; we want to live like the rest of the world. They have robbed us of our freedom to do basic things.”

⚡During her last visit to Ukraine, Angelina Jolie did not notify authorities — Politico

According to the outlet, the actress crossed the border on foot as a UNICEF ambassador and visited frontline Khersonwithout prior coordination.

An incident occurred en route when one of her entourage members was detained and taken to a military enlistment office. Officials in Mykolaiv confirmed it was her driver — a reservist who was handed an order for retraining.

TSN later reported that the man, Dmytro, is a volunteer and combat sambo coach from Kropyvnytskyi. He has a medical certificate limiting him to rear-area service. His relatives say they still have no contact with him.

Everything you are seeing is evidence of the deep rooted bias that exists in this nation. Some was sown into us, some are misconceptions, and the rest is the result of our individual observation.

Don't blame anyone. Blame the system. Nigeria was created to benefit a few people at the expense of the rest. If we try to carry the country up, those that it benefits will try to bring it down. Then frustration sets in for those who still believe in the system. So who do we really blame?

The leaders are the enemy and not we the masses. But the leaders know very well that the day the masses unite is the day they fall. So they ensure to keep us divided. We all need serious orientation.

Apart from maybe fxtrader, I haven't seen anyone here completely oppose foreign intervention, either by the US or anyone else

My own position is clear, I oppose a unilateral deployment of US troops, if it'll happen, it should be in conjunction with Nigerian troops and with the knowledge of the Government

I personally prefer the return of the South African PMC that routed Boko Haram in 6months. Those guys delivered and they showed a high level of efficiency and professionalism. Unfortunately, they were forced to leave due to pressure from the same US that wants to play saviour now. Isn't that ironic?

As for Ukraine, I've never cheered the deaths of civilians. My post history is there for you to scour and find proof to the contrary. I've only criticized Zelensky's decisions and have made it clear that Ukraine has no chance of winning and I still stand by that

Even if I do say so myself, I've been consistent in my stance since the beginning

⚡Saudi Arabia’s futuristic mega-project, The Line — a 500-metre-tall, 170km mirrored city meant to house 9m people — has been dramatically ended after colliding with engineering limits and soaring costs.

Conceived by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman as the centrepiece of Neom, the project featured fantastical concepts including a giant suspended “chandelier” building, a floating football stadium, and a deep desert cruise-ship marina.

As planning advanced, architects warned that many elements were physically unworkable or unsafe, and required impossible quantities of steel, concrete, and glass.


Foreign investment failed to appear, timelines slipped, and estimated costs ballooned from $1.6tn to around $4.5tn.

Despite $50bn spent, only early groundwork is complete, including massive piles and excavation.

The planned 20 building “modules” have been cut to about three, making the project widely seen as financially unviable.

Neom insists The Line remains a long-term goal, but insiders say the grand vision has effectively collapsed — undone by physics, cost, and politics.

This is experience for you. This reminds me of Iran capturing USA navy seals and one of them crying like a baby. For American film those guys take down a city 😂😂😂.

A lot of crying will happen if they go to Venezuela ( as long as the generals don’t betray Maduro).

Th e chosen is defending idf soldiers involved in rape of a Palestinian man. Nothing new.
I remember that incident. The whole thing was a clown show and very shocking at the time 😂 😂 😂 There will be a lot of tears in Venezuela. I saw some videos of Venezuela’s military deployment and they too were not joking.

As for that Israeli prosecutor, the woman went missing for investigating the rape of Palestinians held in Israeli prison. Sometimes, I just wonder if there’s any sane person in the leadership of that country. Because their behavior is just odd.

⚡The U.S. is preparing to set up a military presence at an airbase in Damascus to support a security pact it is brokering between Syria and Israel, with the base located near southern Syria, which is expected to become a demilitarized zone under the planned non-aggression agreement, according to Reuters.
