We that are in such places are happy with this news because at least there is hope that our plight is receiving attention

hmmmm ... and what USA is guiding against is fair trade , how do you have fair trade when you are getting raw materials using illegal mining. That's why their cars and other products are unnecessarily cheaper than other countries making it hard for them to compete in a global market. They pay one politician peanut and go away with valuable resources and impoverish the citizens. Its really deep.

I even have some first hand knowledge and experience in Ebonyi and plateau state of how these Chinese have been exploiting us due to the inefficiency of the Nigerian system.
It is even our security operative that guards them ,you can't even come close.
I'm talking about over 12 years ago and it could have been going on much longer than that.

Let me just take this as fake news.

What is the business of USA with the Chinese doing mining in Nigeria? Trump better no pass his boundaries. No be everything you go dey do over sabi about

Sovereignty , those who close to him should be reminding him that

Modified: Some people don't get it , what's the moral justification USA have been using to be condemning things they mastered/practiced? USA don't do anything that will never benefit them. Never

Exactly same stunt they pulled in Congo all in the name of Cobalt.
It is not a fake news. The proxy war has gotten to our shores, I was telling whoever has ear that the killing of Christians issues in Nigeria was just a part of a playbook to counter China they said I was wrong.

You are very correct my brother,there are very intelligent people on this forum but it's the ones with their biased opinion that keeps creating and jumping from one thread to the other spreading false narratives born solely out of hatred for America.
Na that our politicians matter dey vex me pass and it pains me even more when ordinary citizens like myself keeps making excuses for them or try to blame America for our self inflicted problems.
Like i always say on this forum, no reasonable progress can be made as a country if we don't do away or rise above religious and tribal sentiments.
How can we claim to be sane and rational people when I'm finding it very difficult to convince another that something is obviously bad and vice versa,inspite of all the education we claim to have.

You see China stealing your resources and most likely fueling insecurity but you don't seem bothered at all about that.
You are more concerned on your usual campaign of hate against America.
You dey reply BOT wey no get NO6

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.
Is it the stealong of our resources and fueling insecurity in the country that yu want. some of your people needs to think deep.

Toolegit123:
Tinubu and his goons have finally handed over the affairs of our very beloved country over to the US grin

Chaiiii what a time to be alive cheesy
Ofcourse better than handing it over to the Chinese and Bokoharans who kills and mine our minerals with reckless abandon. At least the government will get something out of this deal unlike where the chinese steals our minerals and keep all to themselves.

Hmmmm. This stuff is now taking another twist and turn o. Abeg na Chinese carry Una come abi Boko haram ?
If you dont see the connection. then i have nothing to say to you mate.

ProJectAnatot:
Oh, So this is what the whole Noise is about! The boldness is actually beyond shocking.. Introducing a Bill in the US to curb Chinese illegal minning in Nigeria is a new level of Anti-Chinese actions by the way! I'm bewildered.
The heck!
You are what? so you are okay for the Chinese to come here and sponsor terrorism why they keep mining our minerals for free. Most of you guys are a joke.

magoo10:
Only under tinubu and his failed APC can this be happening and these guys aren't smelling the coffee yet .what a disgrace
It was not a disgrace when your favorites presidents allow the Chinese to come here mine our resources and sponsor terrorism. who do this thing to una abeg.

I believe banditry in the North is inextricably linked to illegal mining. The the foreign miners provide weapons for protection and dislogement of locals so as their operations could be unhindered. Its not only the chinese ppl but lebanese and others you cant identify. They uses aircraft to supply weapons and carry the gold and other valueable stones back to their country. This is what what i heard my ppl saying.
I read the 11 years Sierra Leone blood diamond war in the early 1990's to maybe 2003 was fuelled and sponsored by
the Lebanese using the illegally mined diamond proceeds to sponsor Hezbollah terrorism network and activities back in lebanon if you knew the number of sierra leonians who were killed, mutilated and forcefully amputated though charles taylor of Liberia was also supplying the sierra leonian militants some weapons too

The Lebanese were very many in seirra leone then,those Lebanese should be the most despicable set of being on this planet earth so I believe your write up

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
Well even China along with USA is also implicated in illegal cobalt mining in DRC.
Africa has to wise up. Those countries will not allow blacks to do same in their country. Our leaders in Africa are the greatest problem of Africa.

even the Lebanese were linked to the 11 years sierra Leone blood diamond war(early 1990s to 2003) even though charles taylor of liberia was also sponsoring it from his country then by supplying the millitas Ruf and Arfc weapon for buying diamonds illegally bit the larger and major culprits were the Lebanese who were numerous in sierra leone then I read they were using the proceeds of the diamonds to sponsor Hezbollah terrorists group in lebanon

Imagine the numbers of sierra leonians killed mutilated and amputated?30,000 sierra leonians limbs were hacked off no be today those people dey cruel.

after the war the Lebanese where fingered in the truth and reconciliation comitee in sierra leone as the instigator of that war and they didn't deny it so they couldn't have lied on them so I believe your write up

What made you allow this country to become a shithole? Are you not ashamed of yourself for letting this happen to your country? Something that never happened when Tinubu and A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC were wailing upandan about how clueless, corrupt and incompetent PDP leaders were prior to the elections in 2015!!!
I think you need medical attention. All Nigerians wants is anything that will solve the insecurities in the country and if that requires the Americans to come they're welcome
