Asari Dokubo Warns Trump Against Military Action, Says Nigeria Will Be America’s Graveyard

Wale busari03 mins

Former Niger Delta warlord Asari Dokubo has warned President Donald Trump against launching any military action on Nigeria, vowing that such an invasion would end disastrously for the United States. In a viral Facebook video, the former leader of the Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force (NDPVF) reacted to Trump’s recent threat of a possible military intervention over alleged Christian persecution in Nigeria. Asari declared that Nigeria would become the graveyard of American troops if they dared to invade. “Let Trump come with his America, they will all die,” he said. “This lunatic wants to annex Canada, he wants Iceland, wants to kill the president of Venezuela, wants to kill the Supreme leader of Iran. America is a sick country that elects mad people.” He accused the U.S. of hypocrisy, saying Washington often overlooks real humanitarian crises in places like Congo, Gaza, and Sudan while exaggerating issues in other regions. According to him, “South Africa is committing genocide against Whites, but he can’t see the genocide in Congo, in Gaza, in Sudan. Yet, he claims Nigeria is killing Christians. If you come to Nigeria, you all will die here. Nigeria will be your graveyard.” Asari also dismissed the religious framing of Nigeria’s violence, saying the killings in the country are not driven by faith. “Everybody knows people are being killed left, right, and centre. But is it Muslim or Christian? I’m a Muslim who was made by non-Muslims,” he stated. He further reminded the U.S. of its military failures abroad, citing Vietnam as an example. “Did America not go to Vietnam? Didn’t they run? Where have they gone to and stayed?” he asked. Asari’s fiery message comes amid heightened global attention following Trump’s remarks about alleged Christian genocide in Nigeria.

Christian Genocide: Kumuyi Distance Self from Fake News

Wale busari02 mins

The Deeper Christian Life Ministry has condemned in the strongest terms the malicious and entirely false news report circulated by a faceless platform which goes by the name of “Ibomfocus” The story with the headline: “America is Trying to Steal our Natural Resources; There is No Christian Genocide in Nigeria, says Pastor Kumuyi” is a total fabrication and the figment of the imagination of its authors. Pastor Kumuyi, according to statement issued on Monday, did not at any time address a press conference or make the aforementioned statement in Lagos. He has been away from Nigeria for a considerable length of time, holding programmes in the Oceania region and the Far East. Besides, Pastor Kumuyi is well known for focusing entirely on preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ. He does not dabble into politics, as the false story mentioned above seemed to suggest. The Ministry warned all those bent on mischief by seeking to drag our General Superintendent into politics, or fabricating stories in his name, to desist from such venture. In the future, any such activity may attract action.

Wale busari02 mins

Engineer Shyngle Wigwe, father of the late Access Bank CEO Herbert Wigwe, has debunked reports claiming he is in a dispute with his grandchildren over his late son’s inheritance. Herbert Wigwe, his wife, and their eldest son tragically died in a helicopter crash in the United States in February 2024. Following their deaths, several online reports alleged that a conflict had erupted within the family over control of the banker’s estate. Reacting in an interview with the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), the 90-year-old patriarch dismissed the claims as completely false and malicious. “How can I want to claim Herbert’s properties? Who is the best person to defend Herbert’s properties—the father or a friend? The father at 90 years? My grandchildren are there! Haba! I beg your pardon! How many more days have I got to live? So what will I do with Herbert’s properties?” he said. “I trained Herbert. I brought him up. Not a single penny from anybody went into bringing Herbert up. The mother is here.

Gumi Tells Tinubu To End Ties With US If Trump Fails To Withdraw War Threat

Wale busari03 mins

Islamic cleric Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has urged President Bola Tinubu to sever diplomatic relations with the United States if President Donald Trump does not withdraw his threat to launch military action against Nigeria. Trump had on Friday redesignated Nigeria as a “country of particular concern” over alleged persecution of Christians. Hours later, he warned that “the USA will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria, and may very well go into that now disgraced country ‘guns-a-blazing’ to completely wipe out the Islamic Terrorists killing Christians.” His comments were followed by a statement from US Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, who revealed that his department was already preparing for possible military intervention if Nigeria failed to address what Washington described as “the killing of innocent Christians.” A group of right-wing American lawmakers, led by Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, has also continued to push the narrative of Christian persecution in Nigeria. In October, Cruz introduced the Nigeria Religious Freedom Accountability Act of 2025, a bill seeking sanctions against Nigerian officials accused of enabling attacks on Christians. Reacting on Sunday, Gumi described Trump’s remarks as a direct affront to Nigeria’s sovereignty and called on President Tinubu to issue a strong diplomatic response. “For Trump to threaten a sovereign country with military attack is a profound disrespect to our authority, but we can rise above it,” Gumi stated. He added, “President Tinubu should summon the US ambassador immediately. They must retract those threats, or we cut ties with this irresponsible regime. Nigeria has other options for economic cooperation and military partnership.”

Haaland Double Fires Manchester City Past Bournemouth To Extend Home Dominance

Wale busari03 mins

Manchester City returned to winning ways with an emphatic performance at the Etihad, easing past Bournemouth to continue their climb back into title contention. Pep Guardiola’s side, who had suffered a disappointing defeat at Aston Villa in their last league outing, have now strung together two consecutive victories — first cruising past Swansea in the Carabao Cup, and now overpowering a Bournemouth team that has been in fine form this season. City were in complete control throughout, extending their perfect Premier League home record against Bournemouth to nine wins in nine meetings. Erling Haaland was once again the difference-maker, netting twice to take his league tally to 13 goals this season. The Norwegian striker finished both chances with trademark composure after being set up by two brilliant passes from Rayan Cherki, who ran the show in midfield. Haaland’s double saw him join Robbie Fowler and Luis Suárez as only the third player to score two or more goals in four consecutive Premier League home appearances. He could have had a hat-trick but missed further opportunities before being substituted for Omar Marmoush late in the game. Young defender Nico O’Reilly added a third goal to put the result beyond doubt, driving home a precise pass from Phil Foden — who was making his 200th league appearance for the club. Rodri returned to action after a month on the sidelines with a hamstring injury, while substitute Tijjani Reijnders also threatened with a late strike that forced a fine save from Djordje Petrovic. With Arsenal currently setting the pace in the title race, Manchester City’s sharp response after their Villa defeat suggests the champions are rediscovering the form that made them the dominant force in English football.
