The only thing APC is good at. The judiciary is where they finalize their rigging because they have all the judges in their pockets.

Funny people. Always meddling into the affairs of other countries. God bless Russia jare

DEM GO HEAR WORD

By the time all their visas are revoked - and their properties in the US confiscated, they will do the right thing

They forget that US Congress has already marked Nigeria down as a country of concern for Fulani terrorism aided by the Government

RACIST P.W. BOTHA - PRESIDENT OF SOUTH AFRICA during APARTHEID was right - he said "THE BLACK MAN CAN'T RULE HIS SOCIETY"

So foreigners now have to call us to order - that we are stu pid and rigging our elections for us to have sense abi?

Africa deserves to be servants for life to the white man - we black people are really baboons

IF ASIWAJU IS NOT CAREFUL - HE WILL BE THE FIRST NIGERIAN PRESIDENT TO APPEAR AT THE HAGUE - the man no get sense at all

With even the comments here on nairaland, it is obvious to even the deaf and dumb that Nigrria is irredeemable.

Just imagine how acclaimed sane humans s injustice. If you stand on the truth, they will call you IPOB. God help us

They should just give the judges and family visa ban. We cant continue like this, unless we want to deceive ourselves. Fair and truth should be our watch word.

U.S should not meddle in the affairs of a sovereign Country pls

The US should fvck off. No ones gives a hoot about their useless opinion. We do not poke our noses into their affairs. They should go and focus on their MAGA agenda and stop forming global police that no one appointed them to be.

On the tribunal ruling, there is still the Appeal Court and Supreme Court to appeal to. Let the judicial processes be observed without interference.

Helinues, Madridguy, freestuffsng, Seunmsg we are waiting for u guys to come and criticise the US embassy😆😆

APC is on a mission to unalive Nigeria. Everything is going to the dogs.
