CityNG:
So show the proof that Venezuela sent the US Ambassador home due to anti Venezuelan stance.

I'll be waiting for links from credible sources to back up any allegations that you levy.

I will warn you though that I'm not the typical NL, you will need to show me undisputable evidences and not just bar bragging talks.

siraj1402:
Your analysis might be a bit rude but I will take it and end the discussion. Peace

owobokiri:
Bolivia also expelled the US ambassador around this time. That is what serious nations do. Google is your friend bro.

THE Federal Government, on Wednesday, cautioned members of the diplomatic community against making what it termed “unguarded utterances” on matters that are strictly within the domestic jurisdiction of Nigeria.

Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Aminu Wali, gave the warning in Abuja, at an interactive session with the diplomatic community over the shift of the general election.

Wali expressed “the strong displeasure of the Federal Government with the conduct of some heads of mission,” who have continued to breach the laid down diplomatic channels of communication.

According to him, some heads of mission “have continued to behave in an imperial manner and in clear breach of the channel of the diplomatic communication.

“A situation, where a head of mission takes on the role of a government, seeking to impose the views and perspectives of his government and making unguarded utterances on matters that are strictly within the domestic jurisdiction of the host country is totally unacceptable.

“It is only in this country that I have noticed some envoys, who have taken it upon themselves and without recourse to the government to embark on social causes and political advocacy that are totally unrelated to conventional diplomacy and representational duties of ambassadors.”

The minister pointed out that Nigerian envoys abroad do not behave in such manners.

“It is, therefore, unacceptable for envoys to abuse their privileges and immunities by behaving in a manner that would have been met with the opprobrium in their countries were Nigerian ambassadors to behave in like manner.

“Let me be clear on this, the Federal Government will no longer tolerate the excesses of such heads of mission.

“They are, hereby, advised to operate within the norms and etiquette of diplomatic intercourse,” he said.

The minister declared that with the support of Nigerians and the international community, the elections would hold as rescheduled and in a peaceful and violence-free atmosphere.

He said it had become evident that elections could not hold as planned in the three North-East states of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe.

Wali explained that doing so could have put the lives of electoral officials, including observers and ad hoc staff in danger.

He said the decision to shift the elections, as stated by INEC chairman, Professor Attahiru Jega, was taken after painstaking consultations with all relevant stakeholders.

He said the Federal Government found the comments already made by some of Nigeria’s friends and partners on the polls shift as judgmental, precipitate and unwaranted.

“What we need at this time is not to be hectored or lectured as to the conduct of Nigeria’s internal affairs, but the deepening of democracy in our country.

“No country, no matter how well-intentioned, can love Nigeria more than Nigerians,” he said.

According to him, there is a broad-based consensus by Nigerians for the elections to hold in all parts of the country, to guarantee the credibility and acceptability of the elections.

“While security has been a major concern, it is obvious that INEC may not have been fully prepared to conduct the elections as earlier scheduled.

“It is a fact that over 34 per cent of registered voters are yet to collect their permanent voter cards.

“There are other logistical and operational challenges, such as adequate provisions for electoral materials including prompt delivery and the training of ad hoc staff, which are critical to the success of the elections.”

Wali said that President Goodluck Jonathan had continued to respect the independence and autonomy of INEC and the judiciary.

He pointed out that INEC had demonstrated its independence through the successful conduct of elections recently, where the ruling party lost.

He thanked the member states of the Lake Chad Basin Commission for their contributions to the operations of the Multi-National Joint Task Force in the fight against the Boko Haram insurgency.

“I am confident that as envoys accredited to Nigeria, you will continue to report events in this country factually and accurately, so as to deepen understanding, cooperation and partnership among your individual countries and Nigeria,” he said.

CityNG:
Excellent, so I take it that you just want to make elaborate statements without backing it up with proof and facts. Very Nigerian.

By the way, Google is not my friend, Google is an online search engine.

USA and Britain will not support Gej, he did not support gay marriage , he signed the anti gay law, Nigerians got to think twice.

PDPwayoo:
We dont have the pedigree to warn America and we cant afford to loss America as an ally. To be honest Nigeria has not gone to that level.
This administration should not drag us into war cos we dont have military for fight smallest country not to talk of America.

If fish pass fish, e go swallow am. It will only take U.S Navy SEAL 30 minutes to kidnap any president including Nigeria if they want.
IT IS OF ANY COUNTRY INTEREST TO BE FRIEND OF AMERICA. RUSSIA TODAY IS A GOOD EXAMPLE. RUSSIA ECONOMY HAS CRUMBLED COS OF RECENT USA SANCTION.
ANY USA OR EU SANCTION ON NIGERIA WILL SPELL DOOM FOR THE POOR MASSES. POLITICIANS HAVE ENOUGH MONEY IN THEIR RESERVE.

owobokiri:
Son, I don't have time for theatrics. I asked the Nigerian government to send the US ambassador home if he keeps geting involved in our domestic affairs. You insunuated that I can't find examples of where it has been done. I told you that in Latin America at the height of Chaves regime, Venezuela GAVE THE US AMBASSADOR 72 HOURS TO LEAVE, and guess what?? Gringo LEFT WITHIN 72 hours!!! This was after Bolivia also EXPELLED the US ambassador for getting entangled in Bolivias domestic issues. You keep asking for links when all you need to do is to google that in good faith. .

Here is the UK guardian story on the expulsion of the US ambassador by venezuela! 72 hours!! And he complied!!!

Don't press my buttons. If you are so ignorant of the issues I raised, why were you so determined to prove I was wrong?

Edit:

I hardly went as far as the middle of the story when your premise fell to pieces.

"The Venezuelan president did not offer evidence of wrongdoing by the ambassador, Patrick Duddy, or other US officials, but he said several Venezuelan military officers had been detained following an investigation by his intelligence services. "

Liasten anyone can ask any ambassador to leave.

"The US retaliated by expelling Bolivia's envoy to Washington and would probably have done the same to Venezuela's envoy, Bernardo Alvarez, had Chávez not recalled him to Caracas first."

owobokiri:
Obviously you enjoy twaddling with triffles. . You asked for examples of places where this has happened, and I gave you the links from the british press because I felt only western sources will impress an African man with white eyes. If you want the Venezuelan angle of the story, go get the info for yourself. Do take care

eddyline:
OK sir. go ahead and weed me out of the country.
