If Tinubu meets Saran one on one, Tinubu will convince Saran to go and apologise to Jesus and then Tinubu will make Jesus to go with Satan to beg Baba God. That Tinubu can win any human or spirit to his side if he has an agenda
Beware of blasphemy. Don't arrogate divinity to a mere mortal.

The so called military cooperation or rather the intervention of eternal force to wit the US military to fight genocide against Christian was in the first instance NOT OPTIONAL. simply put Trump bullied Tinubu into accepting that the violation of the Nigerian sovereignty by the US strike in Sokoto on 25/12/2025 was a cooperative effort. Tinubu is cunningly saving face by accepting that it is military cooperation; it is really not
Saving face from whom?

When you have a leader who knows the dynamics and architecture of world politics, then such overturn cannot amaze you.

His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) is a political demigod. So imagine him having to negotiate with a kid like Trump. He knew what the kid wanted and played along in his own interest.

God bless His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)
Now, this is effing funny 🤣

Someone is fighting for his survival, but this one right here...

Hehehe 😂

Keep mas tur bat ing 😆

It was obvious there would be behind the scenes dealing from the beginning. Certainly with both such characters as Trump and BAT.
It should have been without any deal nah!

Didn't Nigeria do deals with Britain to assist them in the Nigeria civil war?

Tinubu should have rejected whatever deal and let's see if Trump would not muscle his arse.

Thank God Tinubu stole his way to embarrassment.
Imagine if was Peter Obi that was president when Nigeria lost sovereignty.
Imagine if was under Peter Obi that Sokoto was bombed.
God is wonderful

grin Tinubu is a man that knows his onions……I can imagine bitter obi in Tinubu shoes as the president of Nigeria and getting threat from trump while he is also facing the challenge of economy and security and also have to deal with party politics grin……the dullard would have been crying and blaming the opposition…a man that can’t solve the problem of a tiny party like elupee but had to elope grin Indeed Nigeria dodge a bullet grin
Poor students of politics everywhere on NL.

The move to ADC was a masterstroke! It's took Amoda and his goons by surprise!

Just like legendary John Cena says, YOU CAN'T SEE ME!

Atiku is another powerful candidate!

But your nightmares have regularly featured on one face.. Peter Obi. E get why. E get why. E get why.

See how repeated intense nightmares leaves a man..

It makes a man look worse than a dracula 😆😂

It's not a must u comment
At least if u must comment, give Obi the credit for going against your feelings and insisted that we should allow America assist us.

I know u attacked him then and called him all sort of names
Now u are giving the glory to Tinubu
Same all fashola and ambode achievements are tagged as his till today
lol which Obi, which foresight Obi get.

He jumped on the bandwagon thinking Trump will disgrace the country.

I’ve supported US from the very first day. Chen my comments, all I keep saying is that we welcome them so far they work hand in hand with our government.

That’s exactly what they did

No choice at all and I thank him for not stupidly grandstanding as his minions here were doing.

Aljazeera saying Us has changed it's narrative of Christian genocide is just playing politics at the gallery.

Whatever it is, the jihadists and their sponsors should be tamed, shikena!

Trump wanted to bomb the terrorists, not Nigeria.

Is Nigeria a synonym of terrorist?

The lobby by Tinubu was a waste of money. Trump and US lawmakers still believe that Christian genocide still exist in Nigeria. No lobby or propaganda can cancel that.

Riley Moore came physically by himself and visited Benue to see the largest IDP camp in Nigeria.

Tinubu was lucky that he wasn't deceived by his advisers who were shouting 'sovereignty' up and down. If he was stubborn like Maduro, Trump would have kept him in same basket as Terrorist.

Finally, it is the Onitsha main market screwdriver seller that played the best masterstroke here. Let's hope US troops arrival will offer a better fight against the terrorists.
Ko ṣẹlẹ̀ rí. Never happened when PDP prosperity policies ran Nigeria 🇳🇬 so well.

Never did any president invite foreign troops to violate our sovereignty and kil innocent northerners under the guise of looking for Muslim terrorists committing genocide.

No bigger mistake than letting city boy make his expired Buhari president, just so he can have his own Emilokan turn to ruin our country further into APC extreme poverty shege, insecurity.

Even PBAT himself knows that dissolving Nigeria into more manageable countries is the only solution to the crisis of Nigeria.

The far north states that urinated on Nigeria's Constitution through adoption of unconstitutional Islamic sharia criminal justice system set the stage for dissolution of Nigeria.
They share the same objective with the Islamic fighters in the Sahel region who say they are fighting for a country to be governed with Sharia criminal laws.

I just find it a tad sad that we have a nation, govt and leadership that could be talked down at, bullied and kicked around as though it was some tiny banana republic.

Even Remi indirectly accepted defeat by calling for more strikes after many months of rejecting Trump’s intervention

Trump really damaged Tinubu and his supporters psychologically ..

Meanwhile, as long as religion of moon exists I don’t see how north would be free from Islamic terror..

Boko haram said they won’t stop until sharia laws are implemented.. Same thing some Islamic scholars are calling for,including some Islamic scholars from SW..

Same ideology, same pattern..
Tell me how Islamic terrorism would stop in Nigeria

?
You got it. Boko Haram phenomenon will not stop unless they achieve Islamic Republic of Nigeria to be governed with Sharia criminal laws.

The difference between Boko haram and the leaders of the 12 northern Nigeria sharia states is like the difference between six and half a dozen.

Well, it's good to be proud of your country, but I'm not proud of Nigeria.

No justice, no equity, weak institutions, tribalism, religious intolerance, insecurity, poor economy and hypocritical citizens.

Nigeria is a banana republic by all standards!
