1. Michelle Obama and Presidential Politics The discussion begins with Michelle Obama’s comments about not running for President of the United States. She stated that America is “not ready for a woman president,” citing sexism and societal immaturity. Her stance is arrogant and condescending, and she argues that Democrats blame election losses on bigotry rather than policy failures. Historical comparisons are made to how Democrats shifted toward the center after losing multiple elections in the 1980s. 2. Sports Gambling and Corruption The conversation shifts to sports betting, particularly prop bets (bets on specific aspects of a game rather than the outcome). Allegations of corruption in Major League Baseball (MLB) and the NBA are discussed, including: Criminal indictments against players accused of manipulating game elements for profit. Example: Cleveland Guardians pitchers allegedly threw pitches to influence bets, earning hundreds of thousands of dollars. Broader concerns about integrity in sports and the potential need for congressional action are raised. Prop bets create incentives for individual players to cheat because they can control outcomes like pitch speed or fouls. 3. Persecution of Christians in Nigeria The final section addresses religious persecution, focusing on radical Islamic terrorism in Nigeria. Boko Haram is identified as a major perpetrator, responsible for killing over 50,000 Christians since 2009 and destroying thousands of churches and schools. The discussion highlights U.S. legislative efforts to designate Nigeria as a “Country of Particular Concern” and impose sanctions on complicit officials. Former President Trump’s tweet acknowledging the crisis and calling for action is quoted. The speakers criticize Tucker Carlson for allegedly downplaying or dismissing the persecution of Christians in Nigeria, linking this stance to broader issues of antisemitism and extremism.

Allie and Judd Saul, the founder of Equipping the Persecuted, expose how the mainstream media is downplaying Nigeria's Christian genocide. Thousands slaughtered, villages erased, churches burned by radical Fulani jihadists, while the government turns a blind eye. However, the tide may be turning, as Donald Trump has vowed to take action to protect Christians, while Nicki Minaj brought attention to the genocide at the United Nations. Hope rises amid horror.

Savage speaks with Dinesh D'Souza about the rise of race-based hatred within the Right, particularly targeting Jews. The discussion covers how figures like Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson are fueling this dangerous division. Savage covers the historical roots and dangers of antisemitism, drawing parallels with Nazi Germany and stressing the need to address these issues early to prevent further escalation. He then discusses the historical and ongoing persecution of Christians by Muslims in Nigeria, comparing it to historical Muslim conquests. He critiques the liberal media for underreporting this massacre. Savage concludes by warning against the liberal and Islamist threats to Western civilization.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said he will speak to Donald Trump in the coming days about the new peace deal put forward by the US. Mr Trump's plan includes significant concessions to be made by Kyiv. What is his strategy with this provocative proposal? Also: Schools have been closed in parts of Nigeria after a new wave of attacks and abductions. Spain's attorney general has been found guilty of leaking confidential information about the boyfriend of a leading politician. And the old VCR gathering dust in your basement could be worth good money at auction.

Ukraine's president has held a call with the leaders of Germany, France and Britain.

Also: officials in Nigeria say dozens of pupils and staff have been abducted from a Catholic school - the third mass kidnapping in a week; The United Nations children's agency, UNICEF, says almost seventy children in Gaza have been killed in conflict-related incidents since Israel's US-brokered ceasefire with Hamas took effect last month; A growing number of women in South Africa learn to use guns to protect themselves against gender-based violence; The UN climate summit in Brazil is heading for a showdown over a draft text proposed by the hosts that fails to refer to the phasing out of fossil fuels; In a dramatic development - Mexico's Fatima Bosch, who walked out on organisers after she was publicly berated, is crowned Miss Universe; And how artificial intelligence is helping scientists differentiate between different lion roars.The Global News Podcast brings you the breaking news you need to hear, as it happens.

There's mounting evidence from the United Nations and others that Chinese organized crime syndicates are moving more of their operations from countries in Southeast Asia to Africa. These groups are contributing to a surge in illicit crypto mining, scam centers, illegal wildlife trafficking, and black market weapons sales. African countries with already weak governance systems are particularly vulnerable. Géraud speaks with Adam Rousselle, a researcher and author who tracks the illicit arms trade, about his recent article on the topic published by the Jamestown Foundation. Adam explains how all of the different Chinese illegal trade networks in Africa are interlinked with one another.

Congressman Tim Burchett has been very outspoken about the Epstein files, today he is with me to break down everything going on in Congress. Democrats continue to look foolish and culpable as more and more Epstein information comes to light. Rep. Burchett has seen how messy the Epstein case is and is worried about victims' privacy and the graphic nature of the over 50,000 pages of information. The Senators that got spied on tried to pay themselves $500,000 per violation in the Arctic Frost scandal. Thankfully, the House is shutting down this selfish act that the Senate tried to sneak into a funding package. Congressman Burchett calls Washington D.C. as sewer more than a swamp and wants to see an end to Congress making 500-600% returns through stock trading. The Socialist wing is now the forefront of the Democratic party and AOC could take Chuck Schumer's seat anytime she wants. It's time for Republicans to wake up cause we are one vote cycle away from losing the country. Ambassador Mike Waltz has teamed up with Nicki Minaj to bring awareness to Christian persecution. Nigeria has been ravaged by Boko Haram, a Muslim extremist group that has literally been slaughtering Christian in their places of worship. President Trump has issued a stern warning to the government of Nigeria and Ambassador Waltz is here to fill us in everything that is happening. Featuring: Rep.

Pope Leo XIV talks with U.S. Catholic youth through live video. Meanwhile, in Nigeria, 52 children have been abducted from a Catholic school as the region sees a spike in religious persecution. And Polish & German bishops mark the 60th anniversary of a letter that paved the way for peace after WWII.
The news was messy this week and I'm here to unpack it all so you don't have to pretend you understand what's happening. Trump signs the Epstein files bill, giving the DOJ 30 days to release sensitive documents, then drops support for Marjorie Taylor Greene, and fresh details surface in Matt Gaetz's controversial case. Elon Musk claims his robots could replace surgeons and revolutionize healthcare, while the Dept. of Education proposes removing graduate nursing and other health programs from professional degree lists. The Trump administration plans SNAP reapplications to curb fraud, and a pardoned Jan 6 rioter faces new legal trouble. We cover major legal developments, including O.J. Simpson's estate paying $58M to Ron Goldman's family, and high-profile arrests like RHOP alum Mia Thornton allegedly stealing $11K in furniture. Plus, Porsha Williams involved in a Delta flight altercation, Nicki Minaj speaks at the UN regarding Nigeria while the U.S. military operations impact Trinidad, her home country, and Haiti's historic return to the World Cup after 51 years.

In der Nacht wurde das Dokument des sogenannten Friedensplans veröffentlicht: Luhansk, Donezk und die Krim sollen zu Russland gehören, die Ukraine soll ihre Armee reduzieren, ein NATO-Beitritt würde ausgeschlossen. Was kann die Ukraine dazu sagen? Prof. Marina Henke hat Antworten. - Mehr Rechte fürs Volk: diese Idee aus dem Parlament soll der Bundesrat prüfen. Es geht um das Instrument einer sogenannten eidgenössischen Volksmotion. In einigen Kantonen gibt es das schon. Aargauer Mitte-Nationalrätin Maya Bally setzt sich für den Vorstoss ein. - Schweizer Soldaten sollen noch länger im Kosovo bei der Friedenssicherung helfen. Der Bundesrat will den Swisscoy-Einsatz um weitere 4 Jahre verlängern. Aktuell sind bis zu 215 Soldatinnen und Soldaten im Kosovo stationiert, der Bundesrat möchte den Bestand um bis zu dreissig Personen erhöhen können, falls sich die Sicherheitslage verschlechtert. Auslandredaktor Janis Fahrländer ordnet ein. - Im westafrikanischen Nigeria sind vor einigen Tagen 25 Schülerinnen entführt worden. Bewaffnete seien in ein Internat eingedrungen, hätten einen Menschen getötet und die Mädchen mitgenommen, teilt die örtliche Polizei mit. Die freischaffende Journalistin Bettina Rühl ordnet ein.

Au Nigeria, deux opérations portées par l'armée et par l'État de Borno ont facilité la réintégration dans la société de dizaines de milliers de repentis de Boko Haram et de l'ISWAP. Pour relancer l'économie de son État essentiellement agricole, le gouverneur Babagana Zulum a organisé le retour de déplacés internes dans leur communauté d'origine. Officiellement, il n'y a plus de camps de déplacés à Maiduguri, pourtant des milliers de familles vivent dans des conditions de vie difficile dans des camps informels de la capitale de l'État de Borno. De notre correspondant de retour de Maiguduri, Souriante devant ses enfants, Yakura dissimule des blessures psychologiques profondes. Kirenowa, sa ville d'origine près du Lac Tchad, est dans une zone sous contrôle de l'ISWAP Et aujourd'hui encore, Yakura reste marquée par le son des armes automatiques lorsque Kirenowa fut attaquée en mai 2014. « Nous avons commencé à entendre des coups de feu. On a cru à une mauvaise blague. Puis la situation a dégénéré. Les gens se sont mis à courir. Quant à nous, nous sommes coincés sur place pendant 10 jours. La plupart du temps, les membres de Boko Haram revenaient dans la communauté. Le soir ou le matin. » Kingibe vit avec sa famille pas très loin de l'emplacement de Yakura Handicapé par une blessure non soignée depuis 7 ans, Kingibe a des difficultés à se déplacer. Il passe ses journées assis sur un tapis à égrener un chapelet musulman. Et avec la recrudescence des kidnappings dans la périphérie de Maiduguri, cet homme d'âge mûr ne sort quasiment plus du camp. « Si les membres de Boko Haram enlèvent une personne, ils exigent une rançon de 5 à 10 millions de nairas. J'ai à peine 500 nairas par mois. Dans ces conditions, comment payer une telle somme ? Comment aller cultiver la terre pour nous nourrir alors que la brousse n'est pas sûre et qu'à seulement 2 km de distance d'ici, ils peuvent nous capturer ? » « Une personne pauvre ne peut pas survivre sans cultiver » Durant plus de 10 ans, Kingibe a difficilement accepté de dépendre des distributions de vivres. Depuis deux ans, ces distributions ont cessé suite au décret local fermant les camps à l'intérieur de Maiduguri. Or pour Kingibe, c'est un cauchemar sans fin de voir ses enfants pleurer de faim. Car cet agriculteur ne peut plus accéder à son champ dans son village près de Marte, à plus de 130 km de Maiduguri : « De nombreuses personnes qui sont retournées à Marte ont été attaquées par les membres de Boko Haram. Puis ces familles ont été déplacées à Dikwa. Avant de revenir nouveau Maiduguri sur instruction du gouverneur Babagana Zulum avec un soutien alimentaire pas trop long. Plus tard, certaines familles sont retournées à Marte, mais d'autres vivent toujours ici. Sans pouvoir cultiver, une personne pauvre ne peut pas survivre. » Pour nourrir sa famille, Kingibe envisage de vendre la tente humanitaire qui leur sert de logement. Plusieurs de ses voisins l'ont déjà fait, laissant vide ainsi de nombreux espaces dans ce camp informel.

Ce qui fait la Une de l'actualité, c'est la COP 30 qui touche à sa fin. La grande conférence sur le climat a travaillé, ces deux dernières semaines, à Belém, au Brésil. Plusieurs pays ont fait part de leur déception profonde quant au projet de l'accord proposé par la présidence brésilienne qui ne mentionne pas les énergies fossiles. Selon un négociateur, la Chine, l'Inde, l'Arabie saoudite, le Nigeria et la Russie se sont fermement opposés à toute feuille de route pour sortir des énergies fossiles.

For years, Nnamdi Kanu's name has fueled controversy in Nigeria, especially in the South East, as he faces serious charges and calls for his release persist. Now sentenced to life imprisonment after the Federal High Court in Abuja upheld his continued detention, many are questioning whether justice is being served or delayed. In this episode of Nigeria Daily, we examine the ruling's implications, reactions from the South East, and what lies ahead as Kanu remains without legal representation.

Today's Headlines: The Senate unanimously passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, but Trump still hasn't signed it — and with new “active investigations” conveniently launched by AG Pam Bondi, there's a built-in excuse to redact whatever he wants. And again: Trump could release the files anytime, so the delay is… telling. Trump's politically motivated case against James Comey is unraveling after it came out the grand jury never saw the actual final indictment. On Ukraine, Trump is floating a plan that would hand Russia more eastern territory in exchange for a U.S. “security guarantee” for Ukraine — which seems like a great way to encourage more Russian aggression. At the U.S.–Saudi investment forum, Trump publicly trashed his own Fed chair and threatened his Treasury Secretary over interest rates. Totally stable behavior. And finally, Nicki Minaj is now functioning as Trump's unofficial diplomat, giving a U.N. speech about alleged anti-Christian extremism in Nigeria — a claim contradicted by actual data and Nigeria's own government, but politically useful for the administration, so here we are.

The overview of this two part series is structured thusly: We will start off with the oil Sector. Why it matters in terms on the control of global markets, pricing and as such how that attempt to weaken adversaries such as Russia, Iran and China. But also it is necessary for the American ruling class as it wants cheap access to oil, in order to keep productions costs low etc.Then we will talk about Venezuela in terms of its proximity to the Panama Canal which generates a lot of paranoia in the USA with regard to the BRI potential, China's access to key trade locations that threaten US influence in the region but also the global economy. Then the military angle, which is linked to the Cuban missile crises paranoia, as Venezuela and Russia have also signed a strategic anti-hegemon partnership which was ratified by Russia last month. What does it mean? Then we will move onto rare earth, which is very important and multi-layered. Rare-earths are becoming one of the most valuable resources due to high-tech, and the race for AI. How the US is completely de industrialized and How that links to Sudan as well as even the past war on Yemen and Congo. We will discuss this new engagement with Nigeria. And finally in conclusion, why civil war and chaos favors capital, and why so little is done to end the ethnic cleansing in Sudan or Forstall a war with Venezuela or come up with a workable peace plan (for it could never be a liberation plan) in Gaza.

Send us a textNew music lit the fuse this week, and we had thoughts. We dig into Summer Walker's latest drop with honest, replay-tested reactions—from that Brent Faiyaz opener and a standout Lotto verse to Anderson .Paak's gut-punch on 1-800 Heartbreak. Then we pivot to Wale's Everything Is A Lot and give it the respect it earns: an intro that bleeds real life, themes that sit with loss and pressure, and the reminder that consistency matters even when the internet forgets.We keep the spotlight on artists who are building in real time with a genuine plug for J Amari's Off The Bleachers, produced with AYO Chris. Expect specific track love, where to find it fast, and why exceeding expectations is worth celebrating. Then the room gets candid about Kevin Gates' comments on dating younger women—unpacking preference vs. power, how language reveals intent, and why “training” a partner isn't the flex some men think it is.Nostalgia hits hard as we map the B2K and Bow Wow tour like event architects: who should open, who should cool the crowd down, where to drop Nuck If You Buck without starting a mid-show mosh, and which act should close. It's a fun, strategic walk through the 2000s catalog that holds its own today. The tone sharpens again as we talk Nicki Minaj speaking at the UN about religious persecution in Nigeria, why credibility and context matter, and how politics collide with fandom. We ask hard questions about platforms, consistency, and whether “canceling” without nuance helps anyone.FOLLOW. SUBSCRIBE. SHARE.

Main Theme: The message continues the study of Joshua chapters 10–11, exploring how God led Israel to fully conquer their enemies. Pastor emphasized that these natural battles symbolize our spiritual warfare—the believer's call to finish battles of faith, destroy sin's influence, and walk in victory through obedience. Opening and Global Prayer The service began with intercession for Christians under persecution in Nigeria and Sudan, highlighting that while Western believers face spiritual battles, others face literal physical danger for their faith. Pastor led prayer for God's mercy, protection, and bold witness among the persecuted church. Israel's Battle and Spiritual Parallels (Joshua 10:16–43) Joshua commanded the army to seal the five kings in the cave at Makkedah, pursue the enemy, and finish the battle. After victory, Joshua had his captains place their feet on the necks of the kings—a prophetic act of dominion. This became a picture of spiritual warfare: “Sometimes we don't finish the battle. We let things live that God told us to destroy.” Believers must pursue sin and temptation until they are “dust under our feet.” Partial obedience leads to future bondage. Lesson: Don't leave sin alive. Whatever is not put to death will eventually come back to destroy. Just as Joshua completed every battle, we must close every spiritual door and cut off access to the enemy. God's Ways and the Danger of Presumption Pastor reminded the congregation that God moves in diverse ways: “Sometimes He fights supernaturally; other times He works through natural means or people—but it's always His hand.” He warned against putting God in a box or expecting Him to act the same way every time, which leads to a Pharisaical mindset. True faith trusts His sovereignty regardless of method. The Severity of Sin Joshua's command to destroy the Canaanite nations often troubles modern readers, but Pastor explained: God owns everything; He is perfectly just in judgment. Israel's destruction of wicked nations demonstrates the seriousness of sin, not cruelty. “We don't see how wicked sin really is… we've redefined it as conditions or sickness instead of rebellion against God.” Sin caused death, chaos, and even required the crucifixion of God's Son to be redeemed. God's judgment isn't biased—He later judged Israel the same way when they turned to idolatry. “He's long-suffering, but He's also holy.” God the Redeemer Pastor used the analogy of the pawn shop and Hosea's marriage: Humanity belonged to God but sold itself to sin. Yet God, though rightful owner, paid again with the blood of Christ to buy us back. “He walked into the spiritual pawn shop and paid for the whole store.” This is the picture of grace: redemption at a cost God didn't owe. Spiritual Warfare and Finishing the Fight (Joshua 11) The northern kings united against Israel, but God reassured Joshua: “Do not be afraid. I will deliver them into your hand.” God again fought for Israel, proving that obedience keeps God's presence active. Joshua's faithfulness to continue Moses' commands showed continuity—obedience to divine instruction brings sustained victory. Application: Romans 6 and the War Within Pastor connected Joshua's battles to Romans 6, explaining how believers must fight sin with the same intensity: “Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? God forbid.” Through baptism, we are united with Christ's death and resurrection. Therefore, sin has no dominion over believers: “Even when you fail, your position in Christ overrides your condition.” Victory comes by renewing the mind with the Word, speaking God's truth over ourselves, and closing every door to sin. Believers must “cut off options” that lead back to bondage—relationships, habits, or influences that tempt the flesh. Becoming a Bondservant Paul called himself a bondslave of Christ—one who chooses to stay out of love, not compulsion. Pastor contrasted this with modern Christians who seek convenience: “Christianity isn't weakness—it's surrender. The greatest opportunity isn't success, it's becoming a man or woman of God.” Closing Exhortation God desires full victory for His people—no compromise, no partial obedience. The Christian walk is discipleship as a journey, not a destination. Every battle is an opportunity to grow stronger in faith and obedience. “Cut off what tempts you. Pursue your enemies until they're dust under your feet. You are dead to sin and alive to God. Finish the fight.” Core Message Don't leave sin alive—finish the battle. God's justice reveals the true horror of sin. You are redeemed at great cost—live as one who's been bought back. Renew your mind, close every door to the enemy, and walk in your position in Christ. The greatest victory is not survival—it's surrender.

À Washington, le Congrès américain doit examiner ce jeudi la requête de Donald Trump, qui veut intégrer le Nigeria à la liste des pays « particulièrement préoccupants » en matière de liberté religieuse. Ce vote tombera 48 heures après l'attaque meurtrière d'une église de l'Ouest du pays pendant une messe retransmise en direct. Les chrétiens sont-ils vraiment persécutés au Nigeria ? Quelles seraient les conséquences d'un vote pro-Trump au Congrès ? Marc-Antoine Pérouse de Montclos est directeur de recherches à l'IRD, l'Institut de Recherche pour le Développement. Il répond à Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Marc-Antoine Pérouse de Montclos, est-ce que les chrétiens sont persécutés au Nigeria ? Marc-Antoine Pérouse de Montclos : Il peut y avoir certaines zones où il y a des discriminations contre les minorités. Donc en l'occurrence confessionnelles, ça peut être des mouvements évangéliques ou même des catholiques, notamment dans le Nord à dominante musulmane. Mais il faut voir qu'à l'inverse, les musulmans peuvent aussi être victimes de ces discriminations dans des régions à dominante chrétienne, plutôt dans le sud-est par exemple. Alors il y avait une attaque qui avait frappé les esprits. C'était le jour de Noël de l'année 2012. C'était dans la région d'Abuja, à Matala Zuba précisément. Un commando armé avait attaqué une église en pleine messe de Noël. Le prêtre et cinq fidèles avaient été tués. Oui, il y a quelquefois des églises qui sont prises pour cible, notamment par des groupes jihadistes comme la mouvance Boko Haram dans le nord-est, qui là, en l'occurrence, avait frappé plus dans la région centrale autour de la capitale fédérale. Il faut savoir que dans les nombreuses violences qui agitent le Nigeria, il y a également des mosquées qui sont prises pour cible et qui vont être brûlées, qui vont être attaquées, pas forcément d'ailleurs par des chrétiens. Souvent, les groupes jihadistes s'en prennent d'abord aux musulmans, et l'essentiel des victimes, par exemple de Boko Haram, ce sont des musulmans, rappelons-le, parce que c'est mathématique. Ils agissent dans une région qui est surtout peuplée de musulmans. Leurs victimes sont essentiellement civiles et parmi leurs victimes, il y a aussi effectivement des chrétiens qui peuvent être ciblés comme chrétiens. Alors tout de même, c'était le 16 novembre dernier à Rome, le pape Léon XIV s'est adressé à la foule place Saint-Pierre, en dénonçant les persécutions des chrétiens à travers le monde, notamment « au Bangladesh, au Nigeria, au Mozambique et au Soudan ». Oui, alors il y a un index qui sort sur les persécutions des chrétiens dans le monde et qui donc fait état d'homicides en arguant que ces personnes sont tuées non pas pour être dépouillées, volées de leur voiture ou de leur portefeuille, mais bien à cause de leur dénomination chrétienne. En réalité, il y a des chrétiens qui sont ciblés au Nigeria dans le cadre de conflits fonciers, notamment dans la ceinture centrale du Nigeria, qui voient des éleveurs musulmans s'opposer à des cultivateurs chrétiens. Et là, effectivement, les églises peuvent être des marqueurs identitaires. Donc, on va brûler un village, on va aussi s'en prendre à une église. Ça peut être aussi des lieux de refuge. Et donc effectivement, là, on voit aussi des ciblages autour de lieux de culte qui visent explicitement les chrétiens. Mais derrière, les dessous de ces conflits ne sont pas fondamentalement d'ordre confessionnel. Ce n'est pas sur la manière de prier ou de croire. Ce sont d'abord des conflits fonciers, des conflits politiques, sur le partage du pouvoir, sur la compétition pour les ressources. Et puis, ne l'oublions pas, au Nigeria, plus de 200 millions d'habitants, il y a une pression démographique qui s'accroît. Et donc, dans certains cas, on voit que ces conflits fonciers opposent des chrétiens aux musulmans. Que pensez-vous de Donald Trump qui accuse le président Bola Tinubu de tolérer les meurtres de chrétiens par des terroristes islamistes ? Oui, alors le point important, c'est qu'il n'accuse pas le gouvernement de commettre le génocide lui-même mais de laisser faire. Donc effectivement, il y a un gros problème au niveau de l'appareil coercitif du Nigeria avec une police qui, disons, ne performe pas, qui n'est pas professionnelle, qui tue énormément aussi beaucoup de civils. La même chose pour l'armée. Il se trouve qu'en plus il y a une configuration en ce moment politique au Nigeria qui fait que le président est musulman et le vice-président est également musulman. Or, d'habitude, il y a une règle non-écrite, ce n'est pas une règle constitutionnelle, mais qui veut que si le président est musulman, son vice-président sera chrétien et inversement. Donc là, on a une configuration un peu particulière qui va donner du grain à moudre aussi sur tous ces lobbys évangéliques qui s'en prennent aux musulmans, à l'élite musulmane du nord qui est accusée de laisser faire les « terroristes peuls », puisque les éleveurs peuls sont tous rangés dans la catégorie des terroristes, ce qui tend à donner une dimension très ethnique à ces conflits, quoi qu'il en soit de leur aspect confessionnel. Aujourd'hui, cette croisade en faveur des chrétiens du Nigeria est renforcée par une superstar du rap américain, Nicki Minaj. Est-ce que cela ne pèse pas dans l'opinion publique américaine et dans le vote à venir du Congrès américain ce jeudi ? Alors, le fait qu'il y ait des stars du rap qui s'engagent effectivement dans cette campagne va évidemment jouer en faveur des lobbys évangéliques du Nigeria qui pressent le Congrès de mettre en place des sanctions économiques. Alors eux demandent des sanctions économiques, ils ne demandent pas une intervention militaire. Et de toute façon, même les leaders chrétiens du Nigeria se sont opposés à l'éventualité d'une intervention militaire américaine qui, dans tous les cas, est complètement improbable. C'est le pays le plus peuplé d'Afrique. On ne voit pas très bien comment l'armée américaine pourrait intervenir dans un terrain plus que compliqué, puisque là, vous allez poster des soldats américains autour de chaque église de l'Etat du Plateau, dans le centre du pays. Ça n'a absolument aucun sens. À lire aussiLes propos de Trump sur le Nigeria sont «irresponsables et criminels», dit le prix Nobel Wole Soyinka
