Some of us will support Donald Trump sending the US Army to come and bomb the whole Nigeria. We will even wish he split Nigeria into 4 or 5 countries. Making the country smaller will make it easier for it to be managed.

He is an unserious man pursuing a political agenda... How did white South Africans SUPPOSEDLY under genocidal attacks get visa free entry but Nigerian Christians did not.

This stupid Aryan Caucasian rascal, aka Trump(et) just wants an excuse to attack Nigeria, with a view to exploiting her natural resources and expanding its hegemony in Africa. As Kweku Tee rightly pointed out, if Trump(et) is so sympathetic towards Nigerian Christians, why not open the doors of the United States to them just as he does for other Caucasians?

@Kweku Tsin and Frankie. All you keep repeating the same anti-imperialist refrain. I'm very much against imperialism and racism, but it should not be a mindless parroting exercise. There is a serious problem in Nigeria. The Nigerian government is doing nothing to solve it. Yet you here just repeating and re-pasting old lines mindlessly. The plight of the Nigerians (Africans) obviously not your concern. Yet you make useless noise about Palestinians.
What solution do you suggest? Trump should open the floodgates for Nigerian Christians to move to America in the millions. How very intelligent of you. Such an intelligent and practical solution you suggest. Africa paaaaa.... With this kind of thinking, why won't we be where we are?

No. I think we might be missing the real reasons for America's interest in going to Nigeria and trust me they will go! Nigeria has finally enshrined their blunder and called America to lead in a total destruction and chaos, a takeover of Nigeria's resources and a total reshaping of ECOWAS for that matter. If Nigeria could get their acts together, they alone can pull the whole of Africa into an economic prosperity that will rattle the foundations of global economy, but the greed is too much.
This "genocide" as Trump calls it and Islamic insurgency via Boko Haram has been going on for years, but why now? The answer is simple - DANGOTE BUILT A HUGE REFINARY! You see, Dangote's refinery is crippling America's economy by providing refined fuel to countries that America has been making huge loads of money from and Dangote and Nigeria must be stopped. Watch out for the destruction of Dangote assets during this upcoming incursion to cripple Nigeria, West Africa and Africa. You saw Libya? The Sudan and Somalia have had worse and well documented and reported genocidal and armed unrests in recent history, why Nigeria now?

The USA should immediately descend on Nigeria and eliminate all those insurgents. The President is old and inactive. He supports what the Muslims are doing to the Christians in the North East of the country. Several school girls were kidnapped by the Muslims and were killed.

He only wants Nigerian oil- just as they did to Gadafi and Sadam. America has no good intentions for Africa or Africans but unfortunately not wits like Azure and his ilk will always support foreign countries against their own people.

Just shut up. Sounds like you just learnt about the imperialist and neo-colonialist tactics; and so you think that is the only intelligent argument to be made. Do you know who is actually stupid? How should the Nigerian crisis be tackled? You don't suggest any solution on how to end the madness in Nigeria. How should the killings and kidnappings, etc be stopped when leading Nigerian government officials and other traditional and religious leaders are complicit and living in denial? After all, do regular Nigerians benefit from the oil of that country?

Trump should stop his hypocrisy about the genocide of Christians in Nigeria whilst failing to accept that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza and he being the pillar,the enabler of israel's genocide in Gaza. No genocide of Christians is going on in Nigeria even though there have been attacks and killings of both moslems and Christians in Nigeria. Trump used the same lies to tell the whole world that there is genocide of Whites in South Africa. Has he forgotten that the late Pope Francis described him as an unchristian person. He should tell israel to stop genociding Gazans most of whom are moslems.Is it not true that Christians support israel's genocide of Palestinias in Gaza? What is good for the goose is good for the gander. Let truth and justice prevail at all times. Selective justice is unpardonable and unacceptable.

The tricky and evil white man is now using FAITH as a means to enter Africa and create economic hardship and division in other to loot and destroy, since their dictatorship agenda against Burkina Faso failed. African Youth all over the world must rise up and declare WAR and TERRORISM on every tricky and little agenda bucked by military interventions these evil white people keeps coming up with. When one part of your body is in pain, it affects every part of the body. The same America use USAID to sponsor these terrorist groups and the same America is acting like they care about the destructions of the terrorist groups. IF YOU EVER TRUST ANYTHING THE white man says, then you need to see your doctor and a psychologist.

This is the mother of all hypocrisy. Trump pretends to be angry at what he terms genocide in Nigeria, when the US is aiding Israel to commit real genecide in Palestine. What a hypocrite! There is no genocide anywhere in Nigeria. The terrorist activities going on in Nigeria affect both Christians and Muslim in equal measure and so it is neither here nor there. In any case, what does it concern Trump if there is genocide against Christians in Nigeria? Is he a Nigerian? African Americans have been victims of white genocide for centuries in the USA and Trump should pay attention to that and stop disburbing our ears.

It is a campaign to make Islam dominate in West Africa . It started long ago since Prophet Mohammed's time. Just as the Christians also wants to dominate with the arrival of the missionaries through the coast by ship. Islam came from the North across the Sahara whilst the Portuguese, Dutch and the British came to the West African Coast and started spreading Northwards. It is a competition.
