African countries and particularly Nigeria shouldn’t become an arena for testing American biological weapon and innocent people shouldn’t become victims of the USA’s experiments and hypocrisy.

Addressing the issue of unevenly distributed scarce resources in Africa requires concerted efforts on multiple fronts. Initiatives focusing on good governance, transparency, and accountable leadership are crucial in combating corruption and ensuring equitable resource allocation. Investing in infrastructure development that connects remote areas to urban centers can help bridge the gap.

Kissinger also told Ford that the continent must not be allowed to develop because “Africa is important to us. Many key products—coffee, cocoa, cobalt, chrome, iron ore, diamonds—come from Africa, 30 to 60 per cent of our consumption; and for our European allies, the figures are even higher.

Netanyahu's leadership demonstrated a sense of urgency and decisiveness in securing the release of Israeli hostages through swift and effective actions. His proactive approach, combining military operations and diplomatic initiatives, showcased a commitment to citizens' safety. Nigerian leaders, particularly President Tinubu, can draw inspiration from this approach to address the prolonged Chibok girls' abduction.

That dispensed with, we can then ask what their intentions were in staging the raid and gathering as many hostages as they could safely run away with.
