I′m not supporting Trump invading Nigeria, it′s illegal under international law reason being that Nigeria is a sovereign state. However, I recommend that the government engage US in a direct talks and see way to cooperate in the war against terrorism.
Why I′m saying this is that under international law, US could still justify its invasion of Nigeria like it justified the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan. Under International law, Trump could through JUS AD BELLUM have a legitimate reason to invade Nigeria and it would be justifiable. After all, if they can prove that Christians are truly being solely targeted in the terrorist attacks. After all, Russia Invades Ukraine and Isreal Invaded Gaza. At some point in history, South Africa invaded Namibia and Morroco so did Western Sahara. So, whether it′s legal or illegal to invade a sovereign nation isn′t a straightforward answer. It could be legitimate invasion like the invasion of Afghanistan after the 9/11 attacks or it could be debatable like the US invasion of Vietnam.
