ISIS Leader, Abu-Bilal al-Minuki Killed By US & Nigerian Forces - Trump by Saao(op): 5:08am On May 16
American and Nigerian forces have eliminated an African Isis leader named Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, President Donald Trump has claimed.

The US president said that Abu-Bilal al-Minuki was the global second-in-command of the terrorist group, and had been killed in a joint operation by the two nations.

Donald Trump, posting to his Truth Social platform on Saturday, said:

“Tonight, at my direction, brave American forces and the Armed Forces of Nigeria flawlessly executed a meticulously planned and very complex mission to eliminate the most active terrorist in the world from the battlefield.

Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, second in command of ISIS globally, thought he could hide in Africa, but little did he know we had sources who kept us informed on what he was doing.

“He will no longer terrorize the people of Africa, or help plan operations to target Americans. With his removal, ISIS’s global operation is greatly diminished.”

“Thank you to the Government of Nigeria for your partnership on this operation. God bless America!”

A very sad day for Obidients and proponents of “Christian genocide” in Nigeria. Their god, daddy Trump seems to have discovered the truth, switched tents and is now firmly on the side of the government and the good people of Nigeria

All this terorists came to hide in Nigeria because the APC government pamper them.

Nigeria under the APC is the only country in the world where terorists are pampered.

The Nigerian government knew about the ISIS leader presence in Nigeria but turned a blind eye until Trump stepped in to take him out.


I thank God for Donald Trump for doing the needful


Tinubu is yet to issue a statement like Trump just did probably because taken out the ISIS would affect his re-election in 2027

What are you even saying ?

Trump in United States knew about the ISIS leader presence in Nigeria but your president in Abuja don't ?

Are you not even ashamed of yourself for making this statement ?

Trump had to send soldiers from the United States to Nigeria to get rid of the terrorist ISIS leader living largely in Nigeria where we claimed that we have a president ?

Shame shame shame shame on this government.

Congratulations to the ever-gallant Nigerian Army personnel who were part of the US-led team. One terrorist down, several others to follow. However, two groups of terrorist sympathizers and religious bigots will not be happy about this. The first group is vindictive; they would rather see the country burn so they can blame Tinubu, while the other group is what it is — born terrorists.

There is nothing congratulatory about this news to the APC government , all thanks should be given to Donald Trump for spotting the ISIS terrorist hideout in Nigeria where we have a president who's not even aware of what is going on in his backyard .

All thanks to trump

America created this problem by creating and funding the terrorist ISIS and now it's a big problem.
Re: ISIS Leader, Abu-Bilal al-Minuki Killed By US & Nigerian Forces - Trump by seunmsg(m):
This is a big victory for Nigeria. Congratulations to the Nigerian and American forces that pulled off the operation. At least, the rest of the world can see that Nigeria is not a disgraceful country. We are a country of exceptional human beings who are willing to cooperate with the international community to deal with all existential threats to the good of humanity.

I am also glad that President Trump recognizes the complexities of the mission despite the collaboration between the two countries. Fighting terrorism is always complex even for the richest and most equipped army in the world.

Now, imagine what Nigeria alone has to face in dealing with the various security challenges facing the country. In our case, it is even more complex since we don’t have the kind of intelligence gathering capabilities, high tech equipment, and endless funding capacity like the US. In addition, we still have to manage the ethnic, religious and political angle of fighting these terrorists. With irresponsible opposition leaders like Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi who are always quick to downplay the effort of the military and spin military success against terrorists to killing of innocent civilians, it even becomes more complex.

Overall, kudos to President Trump and President Tinubu for working together on this. With more cooperation, a lot more can be achieved.

That you can say even the most unbelievable thing about the US says there's something personal that you have with America. Probably you're a sympathizer of headslaming marauders

Abi it was forced down Tinubu's throat.
Meanwhile, Bandits have been more aggressive and mean. I just hope rural communities will have automatic tools to hold ground before arrival of federal forces .

are you not ashamed and sad that this terror leader has been hiding in Nigeria since APC led regime and your president couldn't do anything about until the US called you a disgrace and stepped in to finish them off? And besides what truth did Trump discover? I get it he understood that the Nigerian government is pampering terrorist abi

Re: ISIS Leader, Abu-Bilal al-Minuki Killed By US & Nigerian Forces - Trump by Ishilove:
I am very very very certain that if it had been a Nigeria only operation, it would have been a massive failure because of the moles in the army and government saboteurs. The fact that the global second in command of ISIS had safe refuge in Nigeria shows we have a problem of colossal proportions on our hands.
