The idea that America is coming to Nigeria to steal its resources is the most flawed argument I have ever seen.
Infact Trump didn't say he is coming to Nigeria directly, he gave the Nigerian Government a choice, END TERRORISM OR I STEP IN.
Why are we not channeling our energy towards asking our government to do what is suppose to be their primary assignment. Security of its people.
Nigeria has been ruled by mediocrity for so long that we don't value electorates anymore.
The United States of America is the highest donor to Nigeria both in terms of Humanitarian Aid and Military aid, you never saw anything wrong with that.
The Nigerian Government had over 15 years to put an end to this insecurity but it has failed to do so.
Do you know why this issue is of great interest to Donald Trump? Let me tell you why. Senator Ted Cruz is in the forefront of this agitation. Ted Cruz is a Senator from Texas and Texas (Houston particularly) has the highest population of Nigerians in the United States. Over 200,000 Nigerians stay in Texas. These are his constituents. Unlike Nigeria, this is a pressure no American Senator can withstand.
Ted Cruz is also a Republican and a Senior Senator who has been in office since 2013 and can pull weight. He transferred the same pressure to Donald Trump and Trump is doing exactly what is expected of him.
No one is coming to steal your resources. Nigeria GDP is not up to that of some States in America. The world is already trying to move beyond oil. This is not 2005.
If America is putting an end to this terrorism, so be it. And if I trust one President that will do exactly that and leave. IT IS DONALD TRUMP.
