US Strike: ‘Historic Incompetence’ – ADC Blasts FG by Bobloco(op): 10:41am On Dec 27, 2025

The African Democratic Congress, ADC, has described the administration of President Bola Tinubu as historic incompetence over the air strikes carried out by the United States Africa Command, AFRICOM, in Sokoto state on Friday.

The National Publicity Secretary of the party, Bolaji Abdullahi, in a statement on Friday, said the opposition party supports lawful efforts to protect Nigerians but blamed governance failure for the foreign military operations on Nigerian soil.

Abdullahi cautioned that allowing external forces to conduct direct military operations in the country is unsustainable and could undermine Nigeria’s long-term strategic interests.

The ADC’s mouthpiece equally questioned Nigeria’s role in the operation, warning that the country should not be reduced to mere informants in an exercise it ought to be leading.

He asked the Federal Government to provide clarification on operational control, casualties, and specific information on the number and identity of terrorists killed in the airstrikes.

“This a a show of historic incompetence on the part of Tinubu’s administration. The African Democratic Congress, ADC, recognises the serious security challenges confronting Nigeria and affirms that the protection of Nigerian lives and the defeat of terrorism must remain a central national priority.

“We therefore support all lawful and effective measures aimed at saving lives and restoring security,” the statement read.

He reiterated the party’s opposition to the physical operation of foreign military forces on Nigerian soil, warning that desperation should not compromise national sovereignty.

DAILY POST reports that the United States launched a series of air strikes on ISIS terrorists in Sokoto in the early hours of Friday.

Recall that the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, said the United States carried Nigeria along before conducting the air strikes.

For the first time in the history of Nigeria, Nigeria and Nigerians were bombed by a foreign country, this has shown that Nigerian government lead by tinubu and this APC theives has no business governing Nigeria. For a foreign country to bombard Nigeria, shows that Nigerian military under APC is incompetent, useless, corrupted and deceased. Nigeria is now in the league of Syria and co that foreign country will be bombing at will.

The opposition are now using the airstrike to score cheap political points.

We need to be very careful about this foreign military operations. The US troops might not go back after the operations.

We should learn from Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan

How long can the north accept this betrayal

Should the government invite foreigners to kill villagers with air strikes

What happened to having community and state police to secure each village

This government got all their votes from North

Buhari was from the North, yet failed to handle Northern insecurity. Under him BH transitioned to banditry. Why can't Bolaji and Atiku be ashamed of what they are giving Nigeria? Why didn't Bolaji and Atiku blame Buhari for his inability to handle the issue. The same Atiku that deleted his tweet after Deborah Samuels death. Political opportunitists !

If you like call Tinubu incompetent, the fact remains that the useless ragtag terrorist were bombed and sent to hell with the speed of light. If Nigerian Air force had done this unilaterally, na the same ADC and Northerners go deh cry foul say Tinubu is killing the innocent ones in the north, now that the strike was carried out by US, they couldn't attack Trump but looking for another avenue to blame Tinubu. Make US continue the strike and pepper them so that the country will have a lasting peace, useless opposition party.

Show me the villagers that were kill*d with air strikes. Why are you people sad over attacks on terrorists? See, whichever way they are to be eliminated, I don't give a rat's ar*se. Why let politics/religion blindfold you from seeing what is totally wrong as right and vice-versa?Are you a terrorist?? ?? ??

I am not a Tinubu Supporter though I am Yoruba but ADC will never have my vote even if I wanted to vote them before.
You dont play politics with human lives. Most of these guys have private securities so, they can condemn US involvement in fighting Jihadists.

Any Christian who wanted to vote these rogues into office should have a rethink

Can't stop laughing at these useless crooks with no direction.

When this bruhaha US started Tinubu refused to consented any help same you useless ADC called him arrogant, called him this and that now he consented to US suport same you demonic bitch crooks now saying why?

You are wrong sir,
Tinubu govt is trying on the fight but some northern elements who are direct and indirect sponsors , sympathisers together with Buhari previous regime are the reason why the US intervention is eminent.
The North tactically don't respect Southern President even as C-in-C and would love to get orders from their Sultanate, Emirates due to religious bigotry.
Saboteurs within the Govt is another factor of which our Defence systems and military have been infiltrated by direct or indirect agent of terrorist sponsors ie among the forces,political space,national assembly,State govt,etc It's the Lord's doing that Trump has showed up to speak for the down trooden,less privileged and innocent Nigerian who constantly fall victims of this atrocities committed by their fellow evil and foreign recruit called Terrorist.

The multidimensional terrorism that is ravaging the entire Sahel region has never happened. They have been chased from the middle east all heading towards Nigeria. It's gorilla warfare. It's not country versus country war.

When Trump announced his decision to smoke the hell our christian killers you and the opposition rejoiced. Your expectation was that they will evade Nigeria, sack the government, install your darling as president and take over military operations of Nigeria. Through dialogue and diplomacy it ended in collaboration. You are not happy. You and the opposition are condemning it. The same people shouting Trump come ooo, Trump come ooo are now condemning the air strike. What a hateful opposition.

Propaganda and blackmailing. You are asking that Gumi should be arrested and terror sponsors should be arrested. Once this government goes this way, you will come here to write the same thing. Blackmailers everywhere.

Very useless government. Only in Nigeria you see terrorists and bandits doing tiktoks on our soil and attending events. They know where these terrorists are but won't attack until they do. Then they repel. Nigeria can't develop with this persisting terrorism within our country. You can pass hundred tax laws, implement whatever policy, still nothing will change.

Re: US Strike: ‘Historic Incompetence’ – ADC Blasts FG by Anither563: 5:57pm On Dec 27, 2025

The ADC's criticism of the FG is valid but the historic incompetence label is too extreme. We must all work together to address this security challenge and not allow the terrorists exploit our differences.
