What trump failed to mention is that it was a combined effort between Niger military, Nigerian military and US seals but according to typical american fashion, they take all the glory. SMH.

OH SHUT THE HELL UP YOU DAMN SLAVES!!!

Easily bamboozled by one flashy bit of Rambo by a country that ROUTINELY brutalizes and kills its own citizens, as witnessed by the Black Lives Matter movement and demonstrations! Policemen in America are among some of the world's most brutal, shooting citizens, especially blacks, at the drop of a hat with very little accountability. A nation of gross inequality with millions of homeless people.

Majority of the nation own guns leading to a really tragic gun crime rate.

Oh yeah..they sure ''value their citizens''.

Because they did Rambo for you.

Abeg make we hear something o jare.

Mumu people.
but why will our leaders shaparly fly there for medical checkup
why will dey loot us here and spend it or acquire properties there.
why will they choose to send their children to school there.
bros all what you gave is not a reasonable excuse.
every nation has its problem and they have leaders to solve them.
can you say same here?
we have problems and those who suppose to solution are problems that needs to be solved.
we are the poverty capital of the world
we have one of the deadliest terrorist group in the world.
the second most epileptic power supply after Yemen.
do we have good roads?
are our youths and graduate employed?
what of our education sector.
should I forget healthcare system?
America has all what I've just mentioned.
we are all humans and we are not perfect.
America has gone a considerably long way to achieve all these for its citizens.
can we say same for our own?

Millions of Nigerians will be wishing they are American citizens right now all thanks to the lifeless Buhari. imagine American soldiers coming for operation in Nigeria and succeeding, what it simply means is that Nigeria has no military

Nigeria has a caricature of a military outfit. Their main focus is murdering their own citizens in cold blood like they're doing now in Obigbo!

Strange why the US didn't get the French to do it and provide ISR like they did for the Droukdel job. They already have assets in the AO that performed the same tasking severally and the lads of the 1erR.P.I.Ma are no joke. Rumours located the raid at the Sokoto-Zamfara border, so quite far in country. If timeline is accurate I'd say they got ppl from Dijbouti/Horn of Africa command that has SEALS there hunting Al-Shabaab and staged from Niger.
Speculation seems to be that the group was ISWAP who kidnapped the guy.
Glad all but 1 of the terrorists are now meeting their 72 virgins.

America really see us finish. She d way they invade our territory in a very aggressive manner. When an american pastor was detained in Turkey last year, why didn't america invade turkey air space to rescue d pastor, but they could not because turkey has a better air space and would hv shot down d US aircraft. US rather went diplomatic. But dey sabi say Nigeria military is efulefu. Worthless and not fully fortified.

Trust me the Nigerians were informed after the rescue was completed ..they are just giving the Nigerian govt yards to save face

I believe this is what happened!

They'd be out of their minds to inform the Buahri gov't prior to the covert operation. It would have been no different to broadcasting it on network news!

Where did you get that news?
Just to call buhari and other elders names is ALL what some of you know. You can't read and comprehend ordinary 3 sentences.

The News Said, Trump salutes SOLDIERS (not American soldiers but Nigerian soldiers) who Rescued an American!
Where did they say Nigerian soldiers rescued the American man. The only thing Nigeria gave was permission.

The kidnapping happened in Niger Republic but in the press release they made it seem like it all happened in Nigeria just to score cheap political points 3 days to election.
What cheap points? Nigerians went to Niger to kidnap an American. They brought him to their safe haven in Northern Nigeria. American Seals went to rescue him. What else do you want to hear?

Yes, no disputing that... I do hope the 320,000 Nigerians eligible to vote in the United States sends a strong message to General Buhari by voting massively for Trump

Minus One right here. He ain't getting mine. I voted Blue(Democrat) down the whole ballot even a dog catcher will get my vote over any Republican. People stay out of a fight you ain't got no business in.

If you think US military will share information with Nigerian or Niger regarding an operations whatever you smoking kindly pass me some. This was all US operation all the way. Nigerians were brief after the effect. US Africa command always maintain a Light Aircraft Carrier (54 Planes) 50 miles off the coast of Nigeria just to make sure there are no major disruption to the crude oil.

Ok I admit I own guns and i strongly believe in my rights to own those guns . Right given to me through the 2nd Amendment, and I intend to use that right everyday of my existence. Just remember, the only thing that can stop a bad person with a gun is a good person with a gun you can pray to God all you want. I can never imagine leaving my house without a gun in the car with me, it just won't fell right. Are there inequalities in America? I will be the first to answer yes to that question. When compare to inequalities in Nigeria trust me I will take America any day.

I believe you - even the Pakistanis with better military than Nigeria didn't know when the US got into their air space to smoke out Bin Laden at Abottabad - less than 1 mile away from the Pakistani Military Academy - The aircraft flown by the US Military beats radar detection and Nigerian Air force use 10th hand NOT even 2nd hand radar from Romania- what this tell us is that when Buhari leaves power and they want him to appear at the ICC - The Hague for the Lekki and Herdsmen killings - he will be picked up like a old rag from his farm in Daura and until he gets to Hague, he wont know what hits him grin

From your fact finding mission the 320K Americans of Nigerian descent are set to vote Trump, right?. Biden will carry the day with atleast 320 electoral votes. You can quote me after the election.



If Americans decide to elect Biden, it will be a replay of how Nigerians booted Jonathan out of office and elected Buhari

They will cry and wish for Trump but the man will just chill at his Florida Base and be watching them like - I did my best, I live a good life - y'all face your cross - Trump doesnt need to be in the white house to live a good life. Americans need Trump to reduce taxes, enjoy more jobs and American power and influence under Trump - CHINA WILL LAUGH AT AMERICAN STUPIDITY and YES, they will eat America for lunch if Biden wins grin

Imagine all that trade deals - mid east peace deals gone
Iran becomes emboldened- as the Biden admin reinstates the Iran Nuclear deal
North Korea starts threatening the US again and Biden will refuse to speak with Kim (scary)

Hmmm - the fall out can be better imagined

Buratai has NO SHAME otherwise he would have stepped down a long time ago, before he became the laughing Stock of the whole World.

Imagine how these Seals came-in quietly, did their job and left?
If it was Buratai, he will first go on National TV to announce that he is going to send Tropps to recover the kidnap victim by 4:30pm, like advance warning ot the Kidnappers! shocked shocked No wonder they run into Anbush everytime. Clueless General.

He is busy asking Soldiers to "Deal Ruthlessly with Unarmed Protesters", when Boko Haram and Banditos are running rings around his head

Shame! Shame!! Shame!!!

So Boko haram came when in 2015 when PMB came to power?
When actually are you going to make use of your sense?


What was one of his major promises

what exactly was the reason you voted him

I guess because we all believed he could end boko haram and make it a history as promised being a retired military general at that!

But today we all see that GEJ who was not in any way a military personnel did much better not just in combating boko haram but also maintained more peace in the country than this man called buhari

Things were better

Dont quote me and start talking about corruption in GEJ administration cos the one in this administration is worse.
