US 'War on Banditry' Targets Northwestern Nigeria’s Resources, Risks Turning Region Into Graveyard of American Imperialism: Professor
The world will soon see that America’s aim is to control the region’s hidden resource bases, Abubakar Sadeeque Abba, Professor of political economy and developmental studies, conflictology and alternative paradigms of the University of Abuja stated.
"America's name and America's operations are synonymous with man's inhumanity to man and deep-seated chaos and crisis and conflicts," he told Sputnik Africa.
There is no country on earth that has remained the same after US intervention, the speaker added, as such acts bring danger, destruction, assassinations, and chaos, leading to the collapse of law, order, and stability in the affected countries, Abba stressed.
"It is about controlling resource bases hidden in national soil. That is the intention, pure and clear," he added.
“Time will tell when America will, just like they left Afghanistan, just like they were humbled out of Vietnam, and et cetera, et cetera, they'll equally be humbled out of western Nigeria,” the speaker stressed, adding that traditional, religious, and elite institutions in those regions should rise up and firmly tell the US that enough was enough.
The country is currently facing terrorist threat, noted Sonnie Ekwowusi, Member Editorial Board of Guardian Newspapers Nigeria and coordinator for African, Caribbean, Pacific Civil Society Organisations in an interview with Sputnik Africa.
"I am in the south, this is happening in the north, but we are even afraid that the forests in the south are being occupied by these people. And very soon, they will be coming out of those forests and attacking us," the speaker stressed.
