Whenever they feel threatened by a country’s emerging economic strength, they bring their propaganda machine to cause disunity among the people in preparation for an invasion, mostly indirectly.
They will lie about a leader building weapon of mass destruction using their well oiled western media in order to have a reason to invade such country and loot their resources.
They use other methods like saying that they want to liberate the people from a tyrant like they did in Libya but left the country worse than they met it only for that one they call Barak to apologise later after destroying a once vibrant country.
Nigeria can not be accused of building a weapon of mass destruction or having a life time tyrant in charge because it is clear that we conduct elections every four years to elect new leaders or re-elect those who are already there and after two terms, they can not run for same executive office again.
They know that Boko Haram have killed more Muslims than Christians in Nigeria because their base is North East which has more Muslims and bandits whose operational base in North West have also killed more Muslims by far than Christians.
The only region where most casualties of terrorism are Christians is the South East and it is because IPOB is their baby which they fed to become a devouring monster.
But since they are not comfortable with all economic indices showing Nigeria as an emerging economic giant, they are telling us that a nation that is experiencing the greatest expansion of churches to the glory of God has its Christian population under genocidal attacks.
As much as we want the Nigerian government to do more in curbing insurgency, that propaganda will not fly here.
In 2023 alone, 27,300 people were victims of gun violence in America.
In that year, there were 656 mass shootings.
This year alone, there have been 60 deadly aviation crashes in the United States with at least 188 deaths including our own Herbert Wigwe who crashed with his family in US after living here safely. The man would have been alive if the American aviation is not as bad.
Of course, we know that they are a more advanced country but they must let us choose and follow our path to greatness too without propagating any evil agenda against the leadership of this country in the name of trying to protect Christians.
We are building our foreign reserve.
We have moved from being major importer of refined petroleum products to exporting same even to America.
We no longer spend our hard earned forex in defending our local currency as market forces now determine the true value of our currency per time and Dangote recently advised forex bandits to sell their dollars or experience great loss in weeks to come.
You became uncomfortable the day Nigeria said at the UN that the genocide in Gaza should stop.
Nigeria also rejected your proposal to dump some refuges here. We are a sovereign nation and you should stop thinking that we must accept whatever you throw at us.
America, Nigerians will not support you to paint our county in bad image. We are not Libyans.
This propaganda will only make us more supportive of our President and his government. It will awaken the sleeping patriotism in us and embolden us to take as personal responsibility to stand by our country.
