Oh my people! Na hot matter we get today o! US don send small team of military officers come Nigeria, and e no be small gist, I tell you. Na General Dagvin R.M. Anderson, wey dey in charge of U.S. Africa Command, na him yan dis one after him meeting with our own president, Bola Tinubu, for Rome last year.
The General talk say this collaboration go help Nigeria fight the wahala wey don dey happen for our land, especially with all the armed groups wey no wan give us peace. E no clear when the team land for Naija, but as you sabi, dem don dey keep eye on our security situations.
You go recall say the U.S. don dey vex since last December when dem launch serious operations against some group wey dey affiliated with the Islamic State. Dis one no dey far from the threats wey come from former president Trump wey talk say Nigeria no dey protect Christian citizens well as e suppose. Na dat one make dem mark Nigeria as one of the countries wey dey oppress religious people. But Nigeria government talk say na all the groups dey attack people, no be only Christians.
Soon after dis wahala, U.S. and Nigeria don start better military cooperation as dem dey discuss how to fit tackle dis security crisis together. As e be now, military officers for U.S. don start to dey supply Nigeria with some logistics and support for reconnaissance missions all over the country.
Meanwhile for Kwara state, wahala don burst again. Just last week, gunmen launch serious attack for two villages, Woro and Nuku. Dem said to have killed at least 162 people and this number fit increase as investigation dey go on. The governor of Kwara, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, don confirm say na Boko Haram carry out the attack, e don dispatch army go the area to help restore calm.
Ey! As I dey talk to una, the attacks don dey increase lately, and e no good at all. Survivors dey talk say the attackers no waste time; dem just dey storm houses dey shoot anyone wey dey inside, burning everything wey dem see. Na wah!
This one just dey show say our country get plenty security challenges. We get bandits wey dey loot, kidnappers wey dey collect ransom, plus the Islamist insurgency wey dey cause trouble every corner. E be like say the matter wey the Nigerian forces dey handle still dey vex dem well, as dem don step up operations against these armed groups.
The latest operation wey we hear say dem don carry out result in the death of one top Boko Haram commander and ten other militants. Na serious movement from our military, but e still dey clear say we need all the help we fit get, and dis new collaboration with the U.S. fit help turn the tide small.
But my question be this: go fit dis military cooperation solve our wahala, or na wahala go still dey continue? Na wetin make we all dey watch how things go unfold. Make we dey pray for better security for Nigeria, no be so?
