Maduro just met with Chinese officials less than 9 hours ago.

What is China doing about this? Because they have massive investments in Venezuela.
China bawo. If China say pim,na Japan US will send to deal with them. U think say na by mouth US the most powerful country on earth. For four years Putin never capture Ukraine not to talk of catching zelenski. Dey play

No care about international law. Might is right. This is the way the USA maintains its hegemony.

Unilaterally attacking and invading a country?
Kidnapping the president of a country and his wife? Total violation of sovereignty and human rights.

What will become of Venezuela now? And the USA gets away with this? The law of the jungle is in full sway. The USA is just deceiving and preaching to countries about democracy and the rule of law.
You raise good point.
Imagine Russia capturing Ukrainian president grin

Honestly, this sets a very wrong precedence. It means 'rule of law' is just a sham within the international system (practically, this has always been the case with US antics). US can go into any attack it's government and change it at will with no consequence. Iran will be next now...after Iran, who next? Sadly, wherever the US intervenes, the aftermath has always been chaos and bad leadership. More like from frying pan to fire.

He's already done with nigeria.

What trump wanted was for Tinubu to exhibit the same gra-gra maduro exhibited, but Tinubu respected himself and jejely cooperated (Please, emphasis on the word 'cooperated' )

What trump ACTUALLY WANTS FROM NIGERIA, Tinubu has already acceeded. So if you are expecting the maduro treatment for Tinubu, sorry o, it ain't happening.

latest update:

Well...well...Trump just announced the Capture of President Maduro and Wife flown out of Venezuela 🇻🇪

"Country vice president says she's now in Charge under the Constitution "-CNN report 🤣

Something tells me Trump is far from done with Nigeria...

This year will be hot with all these "Strategic" maneuvers and invasions around the world:
1. US in Venezuela
2. US in Nigeria
3. Saudi and UAE in Yemen supporting different factions
4. China rehearsing action in waters around Taiwan
5. The old Ukraine vs Russia
6. Israel unfinished war vs Iran ruling government
7. Iran internal crises ( Civilian protest against government )
please add yours if I have missed any

it's taking Russia 4yrs to capture kyiv..... Russia is highly overrated
Ukraine has backing from US and NATOs, hence why it's taking time, without those backings Ukraine would have surrendered to Russia since.

Venezuela has one of the world's largest oil reserves. Having control of it will help USA keep the petro dollar intact . In fact watch how dollar will gain value after the 11 am press conference .

Now that said , this is where russia ans china can show their strength . They should deploy military assets into Venezuela. Lets see what will happen .
Re: US Has Captured Venezuelan President Maduro & His Wife - Trump by Nigerianlion(m): 12:06pm On Jan 03
If true, this is a huge escalation in US–Venezuela tensions — but anyone can see how easily such claims can be used as propaganda without verifiable evidence.

Quite condemnable.

Trump’s US violated the sovereignty of Venezuela. The US keeps wielding military might against lesser powerful countries. This is an act of bullying.

Is this how democracy works?

UN will sit and say nothing - such a useless organisation.

How can US captures the President of another country and attempt to force change of Government just because they can.

Why not move this military might against Russia which keeps destroying Ukraine per seconds.
Because he's a wanted criminal in the United States. Putin would not even dare to contest for presidency if he was a wanted criminal in the United States. There's nothing that can justify cocaine trafficker. Stop being emotional. Trump had given him enough grace but he was headstrong.

Talking trash. Same thing Russia wanted to do and hasn’t been able to do in 4 years! Putin even gave out a list of names of people to be arrested including Zolenski. That's why it's not good to talk too much

Wow! Just wow! It’s a crime to be weak in this world. If you’re not powerful, don’t stand in the way of the powerful.

Again, kudus to President Tinubu for opting for diplomacy in resolving Nigeria’s issue with Donald Trump. We must do everything not to ever be in the same situation as Venezuela.

Sadly, the ordinary folks in Venezuela will be the biggest losers of this regime change. The Americans will come in, milk the country dry and then abandon them to another American backed puppet dictator. For the common man, it’s the same story. Nothing ever gets better.
Just to remind you what the world was before reasonable people decides peace should be given a chance. We are just looking at you fools and keep watching as you dance naked and coninue to make a mess of this nation because you want to loot public resources for your self .

the USA will never go against a country cable of punching back, north Korea has nuclear weapons, even if they cannot target mainland USA, their allies and military bases are easy targets and Kim Jung in is as crazy as trump himself
You people just shouting north Korea as if they are one of world powers.


North Korea doesn't possess a single threat to USA or world peace and no significant economic gains from them. If they post threats or something to gain, it won't take them 3 months before they take Kim out.


America still has something to gain in Nigeria far more than North Korea.

To you Muslims and Islamists, everything has a Jewish factor. Jews really dent your religion that their existence is abrogation of tenets of Islam.

What an obsession.

This is why I called you a big fooo.

NATO couldn't destroy Russia, it's now Ukraine that will destroy Russia? you think Putin's goal is to remove Zelensky? that's not his motive. if Putin wants Zelensky dead he won't waste any time but he's not as heartless as America.
Moo moo continue to Cry 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

That is why I say common sense is obviously not common in your generation and lineage..

Putin and his Ûrchins like you thought they would overrun Ukraine in 3 days but here we are in the 4th year of the war and Zelensky is still standing and Ukraine is still fighting...

Fuuuulish. hypocrite....

You condemn America for removing Maduro but you keep quiet when Russia invaded Ukraine...

And you will also applaud and dance when China eventually invades Taiwan.

Your Hypocrisy stinks to the heavens

China and Russia literally supported, funded and equipped Iran in the 12 days war.

But guess what, Israel defeated them and even carried out samba dance in Tehran without losing even one soldier.


China and Russia knows their limit. China is a TikTok tiger.

The fundamental mistake they made in Nigeria was choosing to collaborate with Tinubu’s government; as a result, their operation was compromised and ultimately amounted to sabotage. With this Maduro's operatipn out of the way, they will revist the failed operation in Nigeria with precision.
Lol tinubu might be scared with news like this. Bro literally has to cooperate with Trump or see himself in the sky

Firstly, I do not support the illegal violation of foreign sovereignty unless there are compelling reasons to do so.

That said, Nigeria is not out of the woods yet. Much will depend on whether those controlling the Nigerian military finally provide their soldiers with the necessary equipment and authorization to fulfill their statutory duties.

If the current wave of violence, abductions, and religiously motivated killings of Christians continues, not only will the stage be set for foreign intervention, as recently threatened by the Israeli Prime Minister, but social uprising and/or a coup d'état will also become likely in Nigeria.
