The Nigerian presidency on Sunday said the United States of America under the Barack Obama failed to provide the necessary support for the country in the fight against terrorism.

But on the contrary, the presidency said President Donald Trump has been very supportive of Nigeria's efforts to defeat Boko Haram since he assumed office.

Making this assertion yesterday at Blair House, Washington D.C, the Senior Special Assistant to the Nigerian President, Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu said US-Nigeria relations had recorded remarkable progress since Trump assumed office.

Odungo didn’t want to fight those animals, he wanted to be in the hot tub with them playing “up periscope”.

This cannot possibly be true. Everyone knows Donald Trump hates black people and foreigners, which means he hates black foreigners most of all...

Would someone please explain to me the purpose of a Twitter hashtag when just holding up a sign?:

I think "Obama Failed" is sufficient by itself.

You mean, holding a sign didn’t work?

LOL! Exactly.

Apparently, Obama did not want Boko Haram defeated, in Nigeria. So, why not and how did that help Obama? Very curious.

Did Obama fail at everything or was (and still is) he the agent of forces that want to bring down government and civilization as we know it and replace it with something very sinister?

Personally, I think the US should create a very well trained mercenary African military brigade whose purpose is to eradicate scum like Boko Haram. The unit is designed as an anonymous one-shot.

Once the designated scum are exterminated, they turn in their guns and uniforms, and are given whopping big paychecks and sent home. And are strongly encouraged not to speak of it to anyone, ever.

Of course, the op would expect that some of them would talk, so would plant clues implicating some internationally known scoundrel like Soros’ son.

We tried that, in Mexico, in the war against the drug lords.

The result was American-trained narco-terrorist paramilitary forces and increased pressure on the civilian sector to sell out to the cartels. "Plata o plomo."

Your picture in a nutshell encapsulates everything that is wrong with the left. I held up a sign, I did my part!! All six of these idiots probably think they accomplished something. The only thing they accomplished was getting pats on the back from their friends about how cool and hip they are solving the worlds problems....

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Kramer refused to wear his aids ribbon. What you don’t want to wear the ribbon?? If you watch all the liberal shibboleths that get skewered on that show, it’s just do hard to believe that Seinfeld and David are both lefties...

Obama could only fail at foreign policy because our elected and appointed failed to uphold the Constitution.

Barack Obama is NOT a natural born citizen.
