Brethren, you see how all western media houses failed to call him a Nigerian. If it happened in Russia, they'll say "Nigerian man dies fighting for Putin". He was probably lured with money to come join the Army. American propaganda is so strong that they can turn you against your own mother. They are unmatched in propaganda. It'll take Russia 500 years to get to the US level of propaganda. Western propaganda has become part of our every day lives, from the cartoons we watched as kids, to music to movies to literally everything. Which is why you must question everything that comes from their media. Or you might find yourself unable to think for yourself. |

Fun fact: America send more than 20,000 Africans to the meat grinder in Iraq. 20,000 Africans died fighting for America in another man's land. There are more Nigerians fighting in the U.S Army alone than there are Africans combined in Russia.

WriterNig:They didn't come to Africa to recruit us by forxe into their army. Let's stop heaping blame on people who simply said "okay" when we chose their wars to legitimately stay in their country. Why dem norva con carry me go join their army. |

It's better to be in America military than to be in Russia abused military, joining the military in America is the best gift any human can get on earth. The benefits is too enormous to count, the pay package, healthcare, citizenship, respect in service and after service. Etc. Join the Russian military and be abused like a dog. |

Wickedtruths:This does not disprove what he highlighted. The day you abandon this type of thinking, you will see clearly. Mind you, not everyone wants a US visa even if they give them free. That is the wicked truth you should be aware of. |

WriterNig:Shut up.. America doesnt lure anyone to join their army.. it is regarded as a privilege.. i remember applying to join the ARMY OF ONE back then but couldnt make the cut because i was still living in Nigeria and wasnt resident of any of the recruitment zones.. Respect the USA or u can go join your brothers in sambisa forest.. |
