The FG has failed to protect it's citizen.

U.S. is doing the job for them.

All meaningful legislation in the last 3 months has been from the U.S. and the OPTUS.

Trump is your President.

FG is only affirming by using the word "Cooperation" in every move by the U.S.

Since the U.S. came, all crazy bills by the Senate has been suspended.

The more you look the less you see.

I just pity INEC when they will face them.

Mounting pressure is what they will keep doing.

They already have their to do list.

Data boys and laptop crew thinks it is their Oga's strategy, they don't realize it is a rising tide.
The storm is coming.

Prepare boys, be prepared

It's not raining anywhere.

The US and the Nigerian government are working together to curb all these issues.

Una go just dey interpret wetin dey una head just to suit una narratives and make you people feel ok since it's no longer invasion y'all where drinking brukutu and making merriment for.
Whether invasion or not, I don't give a hoot. My point is simple - the government must take any measures it must to stop the killing of innocent Nigerians.

How can over 100 people be killed in this country and yet we don't feel like something happened? Is that how worthless a Nigerian life has become? Play politics with anything, but not with human lives.

[quote author=Gerrard59 post=138453337][/quote]There is a huge difference between legal Chinese government backed mining and illegal Chinese mining operations.


What's going on in Northern Nigeria is illegal Chinese mining, and reason they need militants to protect them and their mining sites.


Fulani Jihadists militant groups exist before the illegal Chinese miners came on board, but the illegal Chinese miners are now taking advantage of the chaos to advance their illegal trade, not that they formed the Fulani Jihadists militant groups no.



They hire them for security protection and in the process the Fulani Jihadists get paid and that also helps to fund their terrorism, including ransom money they get from kidnapping people too.



It's multidimensional, not as simple as you think

We need to get something straight.

The United States in North America, is proposing a bill to target Chinese mining in Nigeria, Africa.

Someone should please make it make sense. This is a combo of imperialism and colonialism.

Meaning of our economy decides to shift from the USD to booster our trade, we will be annihilated.

Slavery never stopped, the dynamics was what changed.

I think the Nigerian government need to deliberate if it’s still worth it to celebrate Independence Day.
What the Nigeria government can not do, and another higher power want to do it for Nigerians are you're getting mad and called it slavery, haba for you.

We have government at every level whose interest is how much they can steal but are clueless in service delivery and problem solving.......is there a curse on black people? If it's religion without spirituality you will see them...

Nigeria,Niger,Burkina Faso and other minerals-studded countries in SSA are on the USA's radar for their selfish gains,despite these allegations China has brought real time technology transfers,not aids,stole funds from the country are not stashed in Chinese banks as compared to USA,railways,university of transportation.so acclaimed CHINA sponsored insecurity is far more better than suicidal aids AFRICA had received from AMERICA for decades without meaningful developments.

How about the illegal mining of Cobalt materials in Congo by the same USA? Without cobalt, there is nothing like phone battery. How are the USA companies getting the Cobalt when concentrated of it is in Congo

Let me take it that you don't know what you're talking about.

Do you know what it means to allow terrorism to work uncountered in a country like Nigeria?
Do you know that uncountered terrorism in Nigeria can destroy the whole of Africa and be a fertile ground for them to operate from even into the West and all over the world.

Oga, when you see your neighbor's children playing with fire, you don't just stop them to save them from burn. You stop them cause you know that their house catch fire, yours may be affected.

When you remember Nicolas Maduro, you will understand that Nigeria has no choice but to accept whatever the US wants. Only when you have a nuclear weapon can you be truly beyond America's reach.

The annoying thing in arguing with some of you is you only know half of the story you want to argue about.

Whatever USA want to accuse the Chinese of doing in Nigeria, they had done worse in Congo and still doing.

How are the USA companies getting cobalt which they use for phone battery 🔋?

How is Rwanda getting rich and developed without having natural resources in concentration?

Who is/are the people funding M23 rebels in Eastern part of Congo and how are they getting their arms and ammunition?

The same way USA monopolized the Congo mining sector illegally is the same plan they want to do in Nigeria by overtaking the Chinese
Re: USA Proposes A Bill To Target Illegal Chinese Mining In Nigeria by dannie007(m):
Truly Apart from the Fact US use to put mouth in everything! For this they are Very correct!! Do you know that in almost Every Northern state where they experience this banditry and kidnapping they have minning company being operated by the Chinese and this bad guys don’t kidnap or attack this Chinese Nationals. Why is because they Fund them to provide security for them in the interior forest.

Re: USA Proposes A Bill To Target Illegal Chinese Mining In Nigeria by Osgilliat(m): 7:37am On Feb 13
Illegal mining is the main reason behind all these fulani killings.: all other things are only being use to hide their main purpose.
If Chinese has been paying protection money to Fulani militias then that explains why we don’t ever find it in the news that Chinese miners got kidnapped or killed despite the fact that they are in the north mining.

Lol grin grin grin Don't be too quick to change the narrative and even if you want to ,what standard have you ever held China 🇨🇳 to?
And I asked some simple and direct questions earlier, how is your sovereignty or mine or as a nation threatened today when the Nigerian government has a security pact with them?
It's just an honest question, because probably I may be missing something ,no hard feelings.

[quote author=franchasofficia post=138453295]This is why I love America, they are very detailed and intentional with whatever they do. These guys have been gathering intelligence on Nigeria's insecurity and the root causes.


You see this illegal Chinese mining, it is one of the root cause of insecurity in Northwest and Middlebelt.



America know what they are doing.


If Nigeria want to partner with Chinese in solid mineral mining, let them make it official and partner with Chinese government and than ban illegal mining by any individual or group of persons just as it is with crude oil mining and even rifinning, simple.




And you think the Nigerian government isn't aware of this illegal mining going on in this country. Let US do whatever they can do, our government has failed.

Exactly same stunt they pulled in Congo all in the name of Cobalt.
I bet you skipped the ILLEGAL part..

Do you know what it means to mine what should have better the lives of Nigerians free for many years without consequences?

Next time do not allow them to fight terrorism on your soil......and they thought Buhari was a sleeper.... We are sleep walking into colonialism. Fighting Terrorism is a ploy to take over . next time vote for Good luck Jonathan, then vote for Peter Obi. Do whatever the late Ayo Adebanjo said. He said stay with Jonathan and stay with Peter Obi.
