A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State, Hon. Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, has said the threat by the United States President Donald Trump to take military action against Nigeria over alleged killings of Christians should be a source of concern to every Nigerian.

Oyintiloye, who commended President Tinubu and security agencies for their commitment to decimating insecurity in the country, urged Nigerians to be united in order to defend their sovereignty.

He called on religious, community, and political leaders in the country to rally behind President Bola Tinubu to end terrorism in the country.

Speaking with journalists in Osogbo on Sunday, Oyintiloye, a former lawmaker said at this critical period, Nigerians, irrespective of political or religious affiliations, should come together to support the President and join efforts to overcome the security challenges facing the country.

He said the current security situation did not start with Tinubu’s administration but grew over a long period of time from terrorism to banditry, insisting that at no time did Nigeria have war against any particular religion.

“We must come together and rally behind the President at this period. Our religious or political affiliations are irrelevant at this period; what we need is oneness and unity to protect the sovereignty of our dear country,” he said.

He added that all religions in the country, Muslims, Christians, and others, have experienced negative impacts of terrorism, noting that no religion could be said to be the target of the murderous acts of the perpetrators of these heinous crimes.

Appreciating the concerns of the United States over the security situation in the country, he further said sharing of intelligence information and US military equipment support to fight insecurity in the country would go a long way in helping Nigeria to tackle and defeat the menace of insecurity.

The APC chieftain, however, cautioned Nigerians, especially members of the opposition, to be mindful of their utterances at this period, adding that whatever happens will affect everyone.

Oyintiloye also urged the newly appointed military chiefs not to betray the trust reposed in them by the President and work hard to defeat terrorists in the country.

He appealed to them to do everything within their power to justify their appointment at this critical period.

“This is not a time to play opposition politics. We must all come to the realization that all our hopes, aspirations, and dreams to get public offices rest squarely on the continued existence of Nigeria.

“Our current set of leaders will be there for a period of time and move on. But Nigerians must not walk into a trap that will make the country cease to exist. With the cooperation of all stakeholders, we have the capacity to end terrorism.

“Getting foreign support in terms of equipment will be good but not deployment of soldiers. It may complicate the situation and lead to a greater problem.

“The political, religious, and community leaders must be united in their resolve to protect the country. What Tinubu needs at this time is the support of all Nigerians,” Oyintiloye said.

It should worry Tinubu and his data boys the most. This is not the usual sycophancy that plague the country political climate. Tinubu should better deal with terrorists or step aside.

We await Trump to help flush out the terrorists, their sponsors and sympathizers.

As usual the data boys can go ahead to remind Trump that we a sovereign country that can’t govern herself and borrowing like we are running out of air

No foreign soldier on Nigerian soil. We will handle our problems ourselves.

Never mind. Even the self inflicted menace is gonna consume all those who have a hand in it. Donald Duke's solution is just a ruse.

Don't stress your brain, the US military is so advanced, they don't need to deploy any of their soldiers on Nigerian soil, to strike targets within Nigeria, while we continue to "handle our problems ourselves" and the killings continues.

Us troops can only be in Nigeria soil by invitation not by their intimidation

Tinubu has shown that he doesn't have the will power to fight insecurity so we need help from America. Anybody who's against that is mentally unstable

No
You the super rich should concerned
You politicians should be concerned
People who soiled thier hands should be concerned
And to be honest with you sir, Tinubus administration hasn't done better security wise either.
You can only praise this administration because you live in safe and secured estates in Lagos and Abuja.
Go to the affected areas and live just a day and experience thier fear and uncertainties and you won't be praising Tinubu again

Manipulators.

When and where did Trump say this: "...to take military action against Nigeria..."

Next time, write about why every Nigerian should worry about the Muslim Fulani jihadists, terrorists, BH, etc...

I am not worried about Trump's threat, but rather by the genocide and insecurity in the land.

The governments of Nigeria and the USA will sort themselves out.

How does fighting terrorists amount to fighting Nigeria? Do the supporters of the evil APC mean that Nigeria is a terrorists state?


They twist every word to suit their propaganda. They are evil.
