Somebody please help me make sense of the US bombings in Sokoto on the 25th of December:
Bombs were dropped in Tambuwal and areas around it in Sokoto state.
Then "debris" from the same bombing campaign "fell" in Offa, Kwara state.
I used the map of Nigeria to make sense of the proximity of both places and this is what the map says:
Zamfara and Kebbi states border Sokoto to the south and then there is this huge chunk of landmass called Niger state acting as a seemingly huge land bridge between Kwara state (the entire north of Kwara state shares a border with Niger state) and Zamfara/Kebbi states BEFORE you ever get to Sokoto.
Additionally, Google map says it's a huge 665km distance (minimum) between Offa, Kwara state and Tambuwal, Sokoto state.
So, how come "debris" from bombings in Tambuwal, Sokoto state didn't "fell" in Sokoto, somehow skipped Zamfara/Kebbi States and then completely missed that huge chunk of land called Niger state and but had the courage to descend in Offa!
Was it that gravity was on slow-mo on that day and decided to make all of us question what we know about motion of projectiles?
Did the US deliberately drop ordinances on civilians in Kwara state with the bombs in Tambuwal acting as a decoy?
Is the US trying, on their first strike, to rid Kwara of the Chinese presence?
I remember foolishboy419 stating here that he fears America and her mercenaries would leverage strikes on so-called terrorists groups in the north to try and wrestle control of natural resources from the Chinese already doing business in Kwara state, displacing them there and then escalating the already precarious security situation there.
Why is everyone pretending like we're fine when we clearly aren't?
How could debris from their "precision strikes", on the first day of such strikes, fall in Kwara state in a location that's almost 700km from the scene of the bombings!
Today it is Kwara; tomorrow it could that they drop bombs in Borno and we find houses in Benue state on fire from so-called "debris" that refused to "fell" within the vicinity of the bombings but rather maliciously chose to fall on the heads of innocent people far asleep in their homes at a distance of 1000km from the scene of the bombings!
I smell a rat!
I support every action - unilateral, bilateral, multilateral - that could lead to degradation weakening of these demons in human flesh unleashing mayhem on our country, if not totaling exterminating their threats.
Having said that, I am still at a loss as to how "debris" from the bombings in Sokoto state miraculously "fell" in Offa, Kwara state!
Some kind Nigerian should be help me make sense of it.
I'd appreciate responses, please.
Thank y'all!
You have a point here, obviously there is no logical explanation as to how the debris of a bomb that's supposed to hit sokoto will locate kwara that's almost 700 kilometres away. May be the Tomhawk bounce of the ground in sokoto and landed in ilorin. I hope the debris doesn't find it ways to the south one day
Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by Alamkiir: 5:44pm On Dec 27, 2025
All of us want terrorist gone for sure, but This is what some of us were saying the other time. Americans are not always with the right intentions. I don't trust them
You are looking for ISIS but your bombs are moving in the opposite direction, as if you are even protecting ISIS

My point exactly!
Day 1:
Sokoto = bomb
"Debris" = Kwara

Day 2 could be:
Zamfara = bombed
"Debris" = Owo Town, Ondo state

The day Niger state will collect her share of the bomb then expect "debris" in Lagos!
The maths is not mathing at all!
I don't trust the Yankees.
Our terrorists-sympathetic government brought this on us!
And, in as much as every sane Nigerian wants an end to the security crisis in the north by whatever means, we should know that actions always have consequences. And, while we may deliberately choose our actions and inactions, the consequences of such decisions is out of our hands the moment the decision is made!

⚡Ukrainian Intel Chief Budanov:

For the United States, the main adversary — and this is already official information — is China.

They consider the deepening of cooperation between China and Russia a serious threat.

Therefore, there is a need to try to pull the Russian Federation away. There is nothing extraordinary here.

The whole world doesn’t live for Ukraine.

⚡Ukrainian Intel Chief Budanov:

There was a period when missile strikes were rare. After that, Russian industry reached its peak. They do not lose this capability.

Plans are fulfilled and often exceeded. Iran and North Korea are not involved in production.

⚡Ukraine’s Budanov on Steve Witkoff:

When it comes to negotiators, they can do anything to achieve their goal.

For the United States of America, as stated in their official public strategy, there is an interest in restoring economic relations with the Russian Federation.

They think about their own country. They are not obliged to think about other countries. They must think first and foremost about America.

Russians must think first and foremost about Russia. And we must think about Ukraine.

⚡Iranian President Pezeshkian:

We are now militarily stronger than we were at the time when the enemies attacked.

If they choose to confront us, they will naturally face a more decisive response.

Their hope is that something happens internally so they can begin their intervention.

It was fired from the sea so it will cross those places if the missiles fuel is not properly placed in the missiles it can stop on the way to sokoto
.. Or if it was about to expire


It shows the missiles was about to expire that why they rushed to use it on Nigeria

UK are thieves. Abramovich should not pay them any shishi.

You forcefully collect Chelsea from him without giving him anything despite all he has done for the club and premier League at large.

You sanction him and his business in UK . You ban him from entering. UK government destroy Chelsea in the name of punishing Russia and Putin and Chelsea hasn't recover from it.

Abramovich should not pay any money to UK government or anything Ukraine. They have done their worst. What else could they do. Nothing.

⚡GOP Pressure on Chevron Fueled Trump’s Venezuela Escalation.

In early 2025, Cuban American Republicans urged President Trump to revoke Chevron’s license to operate in Venezuela, arguing it helped sustain Maduro.

Trump resisted, viewing Chevron as the last U.S. foothold in Venezuela’s oil sector and a check on China. But in May 2025, as he pushed his “One Big Beautiful Bill” through Congress, lawmakers threatened to block it unless the license expired.

On May 27, Trump let Chevron’s waiver lapse. The move weakened U.S. leverage in Venezuela and intensified the administration’s shift toward harsher ways of confronting Caracas in the weeks that followed.
