I’m wondering, is this type of news not supposed to be classified?
The US Army knows it all. They have their way around it. Classified or no classified, they've already cornered them. They deeply understand the rule of engagement. Judgement day is at the corner.

Anytime terrorists and their supporters (aka tinubu supporters) hear USA, they start peeing in their pants. They hate anything that will wipe off bandits and terrorists
Terrorists must end in this nation including IPOB from the SE. If you like cry till day break US has come to stay and finish those Terrors anywhere in Nigeria.

You cannot claim to know more than the American. They know who the real terrorists are.
IPOB reported Nigeria through their US members. So they are already biased. Southeast is where the problem is. IPOB are the terrorists. But Americans want to use the IPOB report for their own selfish aspiration to exploit our resources.

This is long overdue. Let the Islamic terrorists brace up for what is coming. And again, America should monitor social media like nairaland, more especially this thread, to sieve out terrorists within.

By the time Tinubu is done cooking for the northern terrorists and their sympathizers they won’t know what hit them.
They thought it’s weakness meanwhile it’s all a plot to gain attention of the world to the situation in the North.

Nigeria's loss is Ghana's gain.

The strategic positioning of the US military in Ghana has helped the country to be relatively peaceful within Ghana's territory where insurgents and terrorists are deliberately avoiding lest they incur the full wrath of the US army.

One of the reasons why a US military base is not stationed in Nigeria is because of the Muslim-Islam backed northern influence of the Nigerian military. The heart and soul of Nigeria's military is controlled by the Islamic think-tank who would not want a majorly Christian force (US military) to provide intelligence, information and knowledge sharing with the Nigerian army.

Why do I say this? The Sultan was an ex-soldier. Sheik Gumi was an ex-army captain. Gen. Buratai, (Muslim), Gen. Danbazzau (Muslim) all from one type of religion.

Strategically, Nigeria's military is Muslim dominated with the country's military armament based in the northern part of the country. This is no mistake. It is to ensure the power of the country resides in the hands of northerners. The colonial powers deliberately favored the northern elites when handing over power due to the subservience of the northern leaders during that period believing it will allow the British government to continue to play an important role in its governance and leadership.

Today, what we have is a sinister plot for domination, religious extremism, power at all cost, violence and land grab.

The US base located in Kainji area is a welcome development albeit a little too late when terror cells and radicalized elements have deeply entrenched themselves within every region around the country.

I pray for peace in Nigeria. This is the only way for rapid growth and development.
President Tinubu needs all the support he can get from both within Nigeria and outside partners (US, France and Britain).

I had always wondered how it came to be that Fulani terrorists and land grabbers dare not try their goofy antics in Ghana, but now, thanks to your brilliant and insightful writeup, I am hearing for the first time that a well-established US military base in Ghana has been there protecting Ghana all along. Wow!

Maybe after US forces commence live fire operations in Nigeria to reduce and neutralize all terrorists be they Islamist or otherwise, the current leadership of Nigeria then do the right thing by welcoming the construction of a massive US military base on Nigerian soil, strategically located on the outskirts of Lagos, perhaps, where ground attack jets can keep Islamist invaders out using the only language the bad guys understand.

My knowledge of US military bases is limited, so I truly do not know whether there is currently a US base in Ghana. All the same, it is exceedingly rare to hear of any Islamist land grabs, mass kidnappings and church massacres in Ghana, so clearly there is a STRONG deterrent in place in Ghana that is keeping terror gangs away, but whose exact nature remains a mystery to me.

China does have a massive expatriate population living permanently in Ghana, where they busy themselves mining for precious metals and operating numerous retail outlets, so it does strike me as odd that the USA might have a huge base in an African country where China has a strong economic and expansionist interest.

First and foremost, there is a history of the US trying to place its Africomm (African Command) in Africa. It was asked of the noble president Yaradua and he refused. They attempted to take it to Niger, we have seen the results. It is currently in Germany I believe.

And know this: Germany till today is not yet independent from the USA.

Yes, as for cooperation that has always existed in many ways and through many agreements. In Ghana, in Nigeria, in many countries not only in Africa but all over the world.

The resistance of a government, when it comes to having a military base of a foreign power (and that of the most powerful country in the world for that matter) on your soil, is most reasonable. In most cases, it transforms your country instantly into not just a client state, but a virtual colony. And in this, try not to compare Nigeria and Ghana. There are significant differences in terms of size, economy and international importance. A Nigerian president, be he Christian, Muslim or even animistic, must be watchful on account of the sheer size of Nigeria. At 230 million people we are circa 2/3rds of the population of the entire USA, with circa the size of Texas. We cannot, and should not be bullied. The idea that the USA should place a massive military base on our soil is extremely misguided. Military cooperation and intelligence sharing is enough.

Your mention of the huge US military presence in Ramstein Airforce Base in Germany caught my attention, because that long-standing defensive collaboration between the US and Germany is a fine example of how a democratic nation in the heart of Europe can retain its sovereignty while allowing the world's most potent military force to maintain a strong presence which includes the housing of nuclear-capable strategic bombers, amid a phalanx of assorted combat aircraft. Now that the forces of Russia's deranged tyrant, Mad Vlad Putin, are waging war against Ukraine right on the very doorstep of Western Europe, that US presence in Germany is proving to be KEY to maintaining our planet's fragile balance of power, and averting WW3 in the process.

While the Russian Bear has remained Europe's main security concern for the twenty years since Mad Vlad Putin rose to power as Russia's reigning demagogue, the continent of Africa's greatest peril is that of Islamist terror, which we are now learning has been covertly funded by Middle Eastern Islamic theocracies such as the UAE, whose military support for East Africa's myriad Islamic terror cults is at this very moment sustaining and fueling a fundamentalist genocide of biblical proportions in Sudan, where civilians are being massacred on an industrial scale.

Now, if Germany has been able to rely on American military support to keep from being annexed by the megalomaniac tyrant Putin in Russia, then Nigeria would be wise to recognize that the multi-billion dollar funding of Islamic terror by Middle Eastern sheikhdoms poses a grave danger that looms large enough to warrant the presence of a counterbalancing force that will stand up against Islamist invaders and land grabbers who seek to turn all nations of the entire West African seaboard into an Islamic backwater comparable to Afghanistan.

Hopefully, President Bola Tinubu will seize this initiative and formally oversee the construction of not one, but several fully equipped and strategically located US military bases from which combat sorties can be launched within minutes of threats being identified anywhere within Nigerian territory. If Germany can maintain its cultural and political independence while for decades hosting a massive US airbase with thousands of military personnel on standby, then there is no reason to be concerned that Nigeria could become an American colony simply because US military hardware is based on Nigerian soil to maintain the balance of influence in the sub-region, by checkmating Islamist expansionism that is already manifesting all over Nigeria, at great cost in lives and property.

Alot to unpack here, but most importantly do note that the history of American presence in Germany springs from the second world war. And yes while it is true that such Western and advanced democracies may cooperate in that way, there is a huge difference when it comes to Africa. Witness France and the West African Sahel.

I may or may not revert, in detail, but will try. Really pressed for time.
