As reactions continue to greet the ongoing unrest in Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan, former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, called on Nigerians to bury their differences and unite against enemies.
According to Fan-Kayode, with they way Taliban has taken over Kabul and has succeeded in chasing away its president, Nigeria need to united so as not to be overrun by Boko Haram and other terrorist group.
In a series of tweets, Fani-Kayode wrote: “20 years after the Americans drove the Taliban out of power in Afghanistan and after spending trillions of dollars to stop them from returning, the war against Islamist terror in that country has been lost. Kabul has finally fallen to the Taliban and the Afghan Pres. has fled out of the country. This is a victory of evil over good.
“The implications for millions of Afghans are obvious and the implications for the entire region and the international community are legion.
“As from today Islamist terrorist groups all over the world will have massive financial, logistical and moral support from a strong Islamist Government in Afghanistan. Apart from that, millions of Afghan men who refuse to accept the dictates of the Islamists and jihadists will be executed and millions of Afghan women and girls will be enslaved.
“Two lessons can be learnt from this. Firstly we must NEVER rely on the Americans or the international community to defend our nation from the terrorists that are ravaging our land and instead we must do it ourselves.
“Secondly, we must come together, unite, forget our differences & collectively fight and resist the scourge of Islamist terror that has plagued our land. May God NEVER allow Boko Haram, ISWAP, the foreign Fulani militias or any other terrorist organisation to fly their flag over our nation, take over our nations capital, defeat our Armed Forces and conquer Nigeria.”
