Is this wall really necessary, except someone is very interested in the $5 or the other side is just trying to prove they have been on the controls of Earth.

Trump is very brave, shutting down the government terminates the fear-mongering propaganda matrix of United States Corporation now what next ? Trump is a Dan Pena on steroids, he can con the Universe, that I know.

As far as I am concerned, all these are distractions.

The future is interesting.

Thousands of Nigerians will miss their visa appointments as the United States, US embassy in Nigeria, located in Abuja and its consulate in Lagos have shutdown indefinitely.

This implies that persons who have applied for tourist, study, business visas, immigrant visas or any other travel document will have to cancel their plans.

The US embassy in Nigeria said in a Facebook post that the development was caused by the government shutdown in the US.

The statement read,

“Due to the current US government shutdown, the American centres located in the embassy, Abuja and Consulate-General, Lagos are unfortunately closed. They will re-open once the US government shutdown is resolved. Sorry for any inconvenience to our valued patrons.”

The executive arm of government led by President Donald Trump and the legislative arm have been at loggerheads for nearly two months over Trump’s attempt to build a wall along the Mexican border.

Building a wall was one of Trump’s major campaign promises as part of efforts to curb illegal migration and crime.

He had boasted during his campaign that the Mexican government would pay for the wall.

However, with the refusal of the Mexican government to fund the wall, the President approached the US legislative, asking the bi-cameral institution to provide $5bn which would be used in funding the wall.

The Congress, however, rejected Trump’s proposal.

On December 11, Trump held a televised meeting with Speaker-designee, Nancy Pelosi, and Senate Minority Leader, Chuck Schumer, in which he asked them to support $5bn in funding for the border wall.

They refused and Trump said:

“I am proud to shut down the government for border security … I will be the one to shut the government down. I’m not going to blame you for it … I will take the mantle. I will be the one to shut it down.”

Three days later, Politico reported that Trump was willing to sign a bill that delayed a government shutdown into 2019 and the new Congress.

On December 19, the Senate unanimously passed a continuing resolution, the Further Additional Continuing Appropriations Act, 2019, lasting until February 8, 2019.

If it were in Nigeria that the NASS refused buhari like this, zombies would have been shouting that the NASS is made up of corrupt persons who are opposed to the dullard saint buhari.

Chinese economy is on a meltdown as a result of a trade war with US.

It's high time all you ignorant keyboard warriors starts reading books on global economy and how it affects you rather than all this James bond will beat Hulk Hogan childish mentality.

Trump has a firm vision and strategy to execute his vision before he got to the power unlike PMB that has no vision nor strategy.

They have already seized the Zambian airport.

When you borrow Chinese loans for infrastructure, the Chinese ensure that those projects are not covered by sovereign immunity and so can be seized if you failed to pay up as at when due.
It is a condition the Chinese give before building any project.

America warned them.

Please learn to read before you comment, at least if you are not following the happening in the international community.

The embassy was closed due to the government shut down in the US.

So many sad and uninformed comment on this thread.

Here is a president going to war to fulfill promises he made to the electorate and here in my country a president who is lifeless, blames others for failures instead of doing the right thing. In saner climes he'd have to step down but our division in this country won't let that happen. Heck...no revolution would happen.

Step down for what? For making Nigeria better.
