America Will Not Just Fly Into Nigeria And Do Whatever It Feels Like Doing, It Won’t Happen -Gen Musa

Minister of Defence General Christopher Musa has stated that the United States can not conduct any military operations on Nigerian territory without the federal government’s knowledge and approval.

Speaking in an interview with Arise TV, General Musa emphasized Nigeria’s sovereignty and the collaborative nature of any military actions involving foreign partners. “There’s nothing happening like guns are blazing. Nigeria is a sovereign country. Whatever we did, whatever happened or whatever is going to happen, we have that collaboration working together jointly. I can tell Nigerians clearly that whatever it is that America is doing in Nigeria or is going to do in Nigeria will have to be together, discussed, planned, executed together. America will not just fly into Nigeria and do whatever it feels like doing. No, it won’t happen that way,” he said.

 

The Defence Minister addressed concerns about targeting religious communities, clarifying that terrorist groups rather than government policy are responsible for killings of Nigerians regardless of their faith.

General Musa highlighted that both Christians and Muslims have been victims of violence perpetrated by groups such as ISWAP and Boko Haram. He sought to dispel international perceptions that the Nigerian government targets Christians.
