US Secretary Of War Commends Nigeria Government Cooperation In Strike In Nigeria

The President was clear last month: the killing of innocent Christians in Nigeria (and elsewhere) must end.

The @DeptofWar is always ready, so ISIS found out tonight — on Christmas. More to come…

Grateful for Nigerian government support & cooperation.

Merry Christmas!

The United States won't carry out any airstrike without carrying Nigeria government along. This agreement has already been sealed during the meeting between FG team and the US officials. It will be a collaborative effort.

What stopping the Nigerian government from carrying the same air strikes and bombing on terrorist locations and logistics support?

All this to cover shame. As if the now disgraced country had a choice.

Mr Trump exposed Nigeria 🇳🇬 President weaknesses. His intense focus on the breakdown of other political parties rather than governance is now catching up with him. Thank you President Trump

Anyways...good one from Trump and more pain and anguish to terrorists,laptop boys and all the enemies of a prosperous Nigeria.

Imagine 300 hundred miscreants on bike going to strike and no action from the military. Nice one Trump. Na just bottom dem go Dey press from pentagon.
Re: US Secretary Of War Commends Nigeria Government Cooperation In Airstrike by Riversides2003(m): 3:00am On Dec 26, 2025
But still no leak vital secret to the Nigerian military there is a reason for that. Let them know only what you want them to know if not they will sabotage your efforts but I know they will not succeed.

“Nigerian cooperation”? Are the US guys learners? The Fulani and Jihadi elements in the Nigerian government will tip off their “freedom fighters” in the bush. For any strike to be effective and for terrorism to rooted out through military action, the Nigerian government must be left in the dark about details and specifics of the plan.
Re: US Secretary Of War Commends Nigeria Government Cooperation In Airstrike by Riversides2003(m): 3:02am On Dec 26, 2025
Funny enough I got to hear about the strike in Nigeria from our local radio station here. Nice development. Say no to terrorism.

The U.S. strike on ISIS targets in Nigeria can be seen as a short-term counter-terrorism measure aimed at weakening extremist groups and supporting Nigeria’s fight against insecurity. While it may disrupt militant operations and signal international cooperation, it raises concerns about sovereignty, civilian safety, and long-term effectiveness. Military action alone cannot resolve Nigeria’s complex security challenges, which are rooted in governance gaps, economic hardship, and local conflicts. Sustainable peace requires broader, locally driven solutions beyond airstrikes.

US Secretary Of War Commends Nigeria Government Cooperation In Strike In Nigeria

We want to hear from our own president on matters concerning this strike

We didnt not appoint pete hegseth , neither did we vote for him.


I hope commander in chief President Bola Ahmed Tinubu addresses the nation in a timely fashion.

We are under attack as a sovereign nation.


President Tinubu needs to come out and explain, how and why he gave permission for a foreign government to strike Nigerian soil.

Was it approved by Nigerian senate ? was Akpabio complicit.

To what goal or aim is the strike on Nigeria suppose to achieve ?

So many questions,I hope due process was obtained.
The Nigerian government have not come out to say anything about the strike. This should tell us that they weren't informed and the US government is making it look like they were informed so it doesn't look like an invasion.

If it was Peter Obi that spoke the same time the American government conducted the strike, Bayo Onanuga and his shameless fellow APC spokesperson would have responded with a speed of light, but hours after the airstrike by America none of them have spoken...they have suddenly become dummb.

Shame on the Nigerian government and the compromised military architecture, a deadly strike you cannot conduct for over 15 years was done in just one night.

Now that the strike has started, expect more to come... except the Nigerian government start prosecuting and eliminating known terrorists sponsors and sympathyzers in government and outside government to save face.

Is Pete Hegseth now the spokesperson for the Nigerian government? You people just enjoy deceiving yourselves.

You want the American government to inform the terrorists filled Nigerian government before they strike so terrorists in government will leak the information to their brothers in the forests. Make una dey play, the botched Chibok girls rescue mission already tought the American government a lesson on how not to trust the Nigerian government with Intel.

LegendHero:
You are not current. Nigeria government already gave their statement.
I am current enough to know the strike was conducted on December 25, 2025 but the Nigerian government is issuing a statement the following day, didn't you check the date on the statement you uploaded? Have they ever taken this long to respond to statements by Peter Obi?

Nigeria is a sovereign nation America can't dare it. America that has dealt with great nations better than this useless contraption. I don't know what this agbado munching people thinks that Nigeria is before USA. You people are nothing, I said you people are nothing, you people are trash. More air strike to follow. All useless terrorists will be killed.

They know there are terrorists sympathisers in A.s.o r.o.c.k, so they are very aware of what they share.

Answer: Too many insiders in Government and Nigerian Politicians are TRAITORS, BENEFICIARIES , ACCOMPLICES, SYMPATHISERS, SPONSORS etc ...all very highly POLITICALLY & RELIGIOUS INFLUENCIAL.
You can see the impunity with which they defend Bandits and Terrorists at all tiers of Government...imagine the threats to the Minister of Defense (Gen. Chris Musa) from the North West already 😳
However, note that the US has pinpoint Military intelligence to go alone if need be BUT DIPLOMACY must prevail as we're old time allies and a lot of work from our Foreign affairs and very influential Nigerians in the Diaspora has have continued to prevail on Trump and the US Congress

Was it a willing cooperation or a command.

Trump said at my command, we have bombed Isis in Nigeria.

Did they just call and told them probably like 10mins before the strike. And they said yes sir. Is that cooperation?

Before Qatar was struck by Israel, Qatar said U .S only called to inform them 10 mins before the strike. They don't want you having enough time to mess up their intelligence

Could that be what's at play here? Americas drones can't sight Terrorist base, ready to strike, calls Nigeria to inform them and they say no to America. It means you are complicit

We are watching

The way Qatar was informed when isreal struck ?
US would have pretty much informed Nigeria so they can do their PR damage control.

I am waiting to read the comments and see the reactions of Northerners when they wake up to the news. Watch closely. The way mosques were suddenly under attack after Trump first made the threat, you will know these shapeshifters are ready to sacrifice their own to prove nonsense . Watch Kano, Kaduna closely . Christians MUST be fully alert. Their wicked leaders and imams will use this to cause chaos and blame it on tinubu . Why ? So they can get power back .
