The United States government has condemned the senseless killings of Nigerian civilians under the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government.
The U.S. Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, noted in a statement on Tuesday, June 16, 2020 that tens of thousands of civilians have lost their lives in recent years to violent attacks by terrorist groups or criminal gangs, in inter-communal violence, or due to their religious beliefs.

"The United States calls on the Government of Nigeria to do more to strengthen ongoing efforts to address this violence, hold those responsible accountable, and protect civilians," he said.

Insecurity has been a major problem throughout Buhari's Presidency since he was first inaugurated in 2015.

His promise to end the decade-long insurgency of Boko Haram terrorists in the restive northeast region has remained unfulfilled, despite some gains over the years.

Attacks from bandits, and bloody inter-communal clashes have also become mainstays in some northern states, including the President's own native Katsina.

There have recently been many protests by residents in the state who have called on the President to put an end to killings in their communities.

A poster of the President was set on fire during one of such protests.

The President begged those protesters, in a statement on Tuesday, to return home so as not to distract the military from their efforts to crush the bandits.

He said the military has a strong track record of quelling crises once given enough time and pleaded for patience from residents.

"Nigeria's military has displayed its capabilities in the past and will show it again by dealing with the current challenges," he said.

Buhari, 77, noted that there's a joint military and police operation currently underway that specifically targets areas populated by bandits in Niger, Kaduna, Katsina, Zamfara, and Sokoto.

He said surveillance of the areas will be improved, with more night vision aircrafts already deployed for Operation Accord, which kicked off three weeks ago.

He has 3 months to make all the necessary amends unless he is hoping Trump would not be re-elected.

If you fail to condemn evil in any little way you can. Then you are indirectly supporting it. With a comment like this, you are then directly supporting it. Sooner than you expect it, someone will be typing on your behalf.
Some will even protest but who is gone is gone.

Black Live Matters.

Haaaaah!
The last thing Buhari will do is arrest, try, and convict a fellow murderous Fulani herdsman

Bubu dey send?

How would US tell a fighting Jihadist to stop killing infidels in his Land??

Story for the gods.... Buhari can't stop killings..!

What US calls senseless is what their 'god' allocated to them.

That was during Obama's administration, have you heard of what Trump did to ISIS, The Taliban and Iran lately?

Trump is a man with bolls i am not disagreeing with that. But hey the international politics is damn too corrupt. My concern is why can’t we fight our own fights, if a section of the country decided to treat the other section or religious group with cruelty why do we need the west to help us settle the matter. All that’s need in my own view is for the victim to rise and fight for her freedom.

Buhari is not in charge. Buhari is clueless.

Has there ever been a time we fought our battles independently?

Now is the time to have grown to that stage, when we continue inviting our enemies to fight our fight we will never be free

The problem we have is not recognising who truly is our friends and enemies. We embrace our enemies and detest our friends. Obama was and is not a true friend of Nigeria, Trump who is dealing with our enemies is the one we should embrace.
