Coming from Same people who jubilate nnamdi kanu action.

Jokes is on u. You people only wanted obi as Igbo president because of tribal affiliation. That is when it is working for you people.

Ask yourself why your region is not working.
The question you should first answer is why people like you supported Buhari for 8 years to destroy Nigeria and now supporting Tinubu who supported him for 8 years to do that and is now doing worse than Buhari?

Keep deceiving yourself.

You think it's same China of the 90s abi

Make America put body make we see na
China is silently praying for the day America will fall in their trap.
And you yourself don't know enough for thinking China has the capability to withstand US force. It's hidden;weapons and tech you not even heard off. China is only pursuing the dream of turning their country to America, and the only way? copy everything America!!! Don't just be deceived by those youtube videos that are displaying china weapons. America doesn't really want war except that they go for it when necessary. Japan made so much noise they were much deceived by the fact that America didn't respond with war so they believed they were technically superior and went on to bomb pearl harbor the rest is history. Four days after the boing Hitler declared war on US. hE WAS DEFEATED,,Japan was also defeated. China knows this,she does not want war but economic prosperity on but on the long run time China is building military might aiming to conquer the US! good luck China!

Ask yourself why ur people supported jona to loot the country dry.

How much did Jonathan met in the reserve and how much did he leave for Buhari.

Oil was above $120 during gej tenure. What was the impact of the boom to the economy, nothing, only corruption by your people who populate Jonathan regime.

Thank you. I wanted to say he should take up on China or even Russia that is already battling Ukraine for three years now. After all, China is also one of the countries he accused of shipping hard drugs to USA and they don't practise democracy too grin

I don’t understand why can’t trump just closed his border against Venezuela instead of going to war with them
It goes beyond border closure — the illicit drugs will always find their ways into the United States territory. Trump's surgical approach is the best — cutting off the serpent's head!

Looks like Trump is looking for a regime change, exactly what is really needed right now in Nigeria,
What do you mean by this statement? That Trump should come and remove Tinubu or that soldiers should carry out coup? If yes, why? Because Nigeria is not peaceful but USA is very peaceful? Or, because the president is not your choice? Be sure of what you wish for dear friend.

for those who are talking about U.S coming to take oil from Venezuela, I'm not ruling that out, but I don't think that's the interest here,
You better believe what people are saying, majority are hardly wrong. It is not a new strategy, it is a repeated strategy.

ask yourself a country with the largest oil reserves in the world is so poor and also if the oil was so profitable for them, why are the youths more into drug sales than oil?[/b]
Oil is profitable, any day anytime. Oil belongs to government, drugs belong to criminals. You think it is the Venezuela government that's exporting drugs

USA respects some countries military might more than others but when push comes to shove, I honestly don't think any country can take out USA in a conventional war.

Trump came to power to start WW3.
The predictions must be fulfilled.
Once he makes a huge mistake out of ego, we will see Russia and china join hands against the US.

China is not a push over in Military warfare
Which conventional war Dem don fight before in the modern era?

Nevertheless, before US starts to 'enter' you, they will make sure their 'see finish' is complete, like they're doing to Russia through Ukraine.

Prayer of the new month: God abeg no let my enemies see me finish make my life no spoil.

USA don see Venezuela finish.

This is one of Trump's list of planned invasions. South Africa and Nigeria should brace up. He already has them lined up.

Here it is:

1. The sulfur content in Venezuelan oil is one of the highest in the world making it harder and more costly to refine, so it is not attractive for buyers in the world like the Nigerian crude oil and some others, you see why it may not really make sense for the U.S to invade them for something that is not rushed after like others.

2. If a government is seen to be complicit in support of terror or drugs that is affecting the U.S directly then that could be another point, I saw some people mentioning Mexico in the other thread, but Mexico has recently improved their crackdown on drug cartels, though a lot of work still needs to be done and also have been partnering with U.S to take down cartels, I don't think it is the same with Venezuelan government.

3. Cartels know that these drugs come with addiction to the users and there are cases where they lure people with samples for free and the addiction starts which causes them to start stealing and wrecking their lives for the supply.

My question to those seeking Maduro to stay in power, I mean what exactly is the benefit of him staying in power while the country keeps sinking and getting poorer, their inflation was so bad at some point, they stopped counting money in supermarkets, they just bring a scale and weigh your money and give you the item you purchase, price of goods were now sold by weight of the money and not the value.

I even watched a prison documentary and if you think Nigerian prison is bad then you need to visit Venezuela, the prisoners carry guns inside the prison, they have their own police, they have their president and even court, prisoners sentence prisoners inside the prison, some prisoners don't want to leave the prison because it is safer for them due to cartel members looking for them to kill outside.

I notice a lot of people not supporting Trump are Tinubu supporters because they don't want same happening in Nigeria to Tinubu who is doing damage to Nigeria.

Your Assertion can not be disproved by mere Insults, all you said is a gospel, those against Trump are only APC Mobs who do not understand the meaning of Governance outside Political Correctness..

I don't see anything wrong with most of what you said but what do you mean by "China is silently praying for the day America will fall in their trap"......what can they possibly do to America......were you not here when China threatened Fire and brimstone over the Taiwan issue when a top US government official (Nancy Pelosi) was planning on visiting the Island....yet she went ahead and did it and they couldn't do anything?. undecided .

No, your statement is Not Correct,
But rather Mr Trump is trying to Correct the Old Age - Drug Lines- that is at his backyard ( Southern America, even though,you can disagree with his methods of singling Maduro- as the Chief Supplier - who is running an Illegal Country- for not being elected legally.
It seems,Mr Trump Mission is to Capture Maduro Alive and it will be a Sweet Deal!
But don't rule out the Oil Explorations there- Maduro 's Country will surely Pay for the Costs of the War - with America.
It's In Maduro-Interest to go on Exiles- to allow Peace to reign!

Let Trump come na. Worst case he removes Tinubu with his power. That will not change Tinubu's wealth or life. Then which person will Trump install and from which tribe? And you believe that Tinubu's tribe will keep quiet having known the hatred and circumstances that led to his removal? Can Trump manage the fall out that will develop through his actions? Meanwhile while Nigerian tribes are fighting themselves trump and his America will be busy pondering our wealth.
