<p>“Community and State Police will be a reality once the National Assembly completes the required legislative inputs; Military hardware is difficult to replace. It is expensive and not available off the shelf.</p>
<p>“Our orders for four attack helicopters from the United States of America will take some time to arrive. We have approached Turkey for assistance.</p>
<p><strong>United States of America</strong></p>
<p>There has been co operation between Nigeria and the United States of America in tackling the insecurity trend in Nigeria.</p>
<p>On Thursday, Trump took to Truth Social to announce the US had struck in North-West Nigeria, during which several terrorists were killed.<br />
The Nigerian government later confirmed the attacks and said they were carried out in collaboration with the US.</p>
<p>Following the US military strike in Sokoto, Islamic cleric, Sheikh Abubakar Gumi, asked Nigeria to immediately stop all military cooperation with the US following America’s airstrikes on ISIS terrorists on Christmas Day.</p>
<p>Gumi, in a post on his Facebook page, warned that any foreign military intervention, particularly by the United States, would exacerbate insecurity rather than resolve it.</p>
<p><em><strong>“Nigeria should halt all military cooperation with the USA immediately because of its imperial tendencies worldwide and seek the help of those neutral countries mentioned. Nigerians are too educated to be played with. This is going to be a 2027 campaign discourse,”</strong></em> he wrote on Friday.</p>
<p>The cleric asked the Federal Government to instead seek military assistance from those he described as more “neutral” countries, such as China, Turkey, and Pakistan.</p>
