“I thought those who campaigned vociferously and ferociously for the US to intervene in Nigeria would be over the moon after the strike. To my surprise, many of them are sounding deflated. Some are unhappy that the US struck in Sokoto instead of Benue. I can also understand. All along, the campaign was not really about fighting terrorism wherever it exists. It was rather to fuel the narrative that only Christians are being killed in Nigeria and the only thing that can satisfy this camp is for Muslims in Christian majority communities to be identified and killed. I won’t be surprised if those in this group send a list of individuals and addresses that should be bombed to the US mission in Abuja.”“I thought those who campaigned vociferously and ferociously for the US to intervene in Nigeria would be over the moon after the strike.
