This report is wickedly mischievous and whatever sentiments it's meant to whip up will surely consume the writer.
What do you mean a screwdriver seller from onitsha influencing Trump's decisions? You think the Americans don't know what goes on in this country on a daily basis? If you don't know know it today that the American government knows more than us the citizens what goes on in this country.
What do you think the CIA is there for? Stupid people.
They want to heap all the blame on igbos their usual sacrificial lambs.

So the Christian genocide is overstretched?

In reality what's happening there is underreported.

As long as there are really Christians being killed and displaced from their ancestral homes in the north no one will really cares to know who made the information to go viral. Those over 200 Christians in benue that were burnt alive in one day is it also false reporting? Haters and paid propagandists will only make this anambra man and his wife to become more globally recognised before you know it he will start receiving massive donations from Christian NGOs in the US to support his work. cheesy

Christian are single out for extermination in nigeria. Thank God that Christians are stronger anytime any day. Even without fighting back yet the islamic terrorist ably supported by their fellows in corridor of power and the streets could not even do much. This fight Una dey look for won't favour Una finally. You may want an islamic country in nigeria and end up making it a Christian country. Be guided.

Are the muslims spare from the carnage of the terrorist?
OneCandleAway:
My observation is,the Muslims who claim not to be terrorists do t challenge their leaders to put an end to these terrorism. Maybe because in their holy book,war and disfunction is recurrent, they believe it's normal so far the Christians are being offed. Now we Christian have found a way to attract foreign interest to put an end, the Muslims act as if they don't want the terrorism to be put to an end.

You should be more concerned about the appalling exposure amongst most of us Nigerians. And It's a very big shame some people benefit too much from the high level ignorance amongst our populace.

luvinhubby:
So blaming a screwdriver seller in Onitsha is the result of the $9 million spent on lobbyists by our federal government despite the fact that Nigeria's government acknowledging they knew about the strike and provided intelligence for the US airstrike.


People are silly
The Igbos, Hausas and Yorubas are the3 major tribes in the country and undoubtedly the biggest problems of this nation.

If una no still understand the underlying meaning of pinning their failures on a man nobody like this from the eastern part of Nigeria, the masses no go fit geh sense at all... Well, I never expected anything from such idiots like the masses...

Nigeria has been struggling to contend the terrorists for years. Resources that would have gone into development gone into fight against terrorism and we are all victims directly and indirectly. Therefore, if the guy's initiative, irrespective of the motive, has brought help from America against terrorism, I think we should all be happy about that.

Calling him a screwdriver salesman is nothing but a clickbait. He's the founder of Intersociety. And the funny thing is, his office is being operated from the corner of his room.



BBC and New York Times have ratted him out.

Useless news from naturalamd.

So a screwdriver sales man is more respected and honoured than the president and all the ministers including foreign affairs minister etc. Very useless news.

All i have to say is for them to have the confidence to cook up such story to fit their lobbyist narrative it means they see the average Nigerian as a fool lacking the ability for critical reasoning to be honest Nigerians deserve to suffer hope their elites and politicians continue to deal with them what a docile population
