A Nigerian presidential spokesperson on Wednesday warned the United States, the United Kingdom and the European Union to stop interfering in Nigeria’s affairs, especially on alleged human rights abuses.
“We are Nigeria, a sovereign country. Those countries and entities have issues of their own. Let them deal with their issues. Let Nigeria also deal with her internal issues. We are not answerable to them.” “We respect Professor Soyinka. You don’t have too many of them in the country or even on the continent. He is an avatar and he is well respected but his opinion will remain his opinion. It will be considered and if there are things to act on, we will act on them,” he disclosed.
Apart from Mr Sowore, the Nigerian government is also illegally detaining many others including a former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki and the Shiite leader, Ibrahim El Zakzaky.
But FG go meet them for aids and grants. Even now that they are trying to borrow. I laugh at this Government.
But you go and beg them for aiid
This democracy has failed the intergrity test . Democracy is not about election saline or provision of infrastr. ,it is about the entrenching the intergrity of democratic institutions . If we disaggregate we find a failed sys.but on arbitrariness
They should mind their business and yet Nigerian govt will not stop soliciting for aids, funds, loan and investors from them.
The people who are naturally ahead of you, you are telling them to mind their business. The distance between Nigeria and them is in millions of Miles.
Lol.... their business of providing premium medical care to the leader of a certain African nation, and sterling tertiary education to his kids. Oh! It’s their presidential human rights, not my citizen rights. Make I siddon dey look, God dey!!
They should also mind their business when it comes to loans and grants. IMFNews and WorldBank should stop granting loans to Nigeria until human rights abuses are addressed. GarShehu FemAdesina NigeriaGov USEmbassyAbuja UKinNigeria
Mind your business but how about all the treats Nigeria signed better not we pull out first and where they failed to mind their business then, can teach them some the bitter lessons.
When Baba is sick he runs to UK, Loan he runs to US, vacations UK. Your Children education UK. Who are you.? Think deeply oh you who believe .

Samuel4Olufemi Who is deceiving this man
E bi like PMB nor won borrow money again.
'Mind ur business'? Buhari has obviously not heard of, indivisibility of peace, and is obviously not well informed of the implications of globalization.
Lmao.
Stop Traveling to tell them your business.
Wow! Presidency get mouth tho
But Uncle Lai reported Nigeria to US, UK even the Hague under fmr. President Jonathan
Pls sir, before your mouth lands you into trouble, do remember that your rank of Major General may not be the equivalent of that of a Warrant Officer in the US army.
dondekojo The last time we did this visa fees changed for the US....but no problem they don't really care about us
The only job u have to do while working for the government; 'protect the image of the government ' -Be careful the things u do or say Nobody needs to spell it out...but it seems Nigerians have to do daily reminders Problem is I wonder if they ever read any memo sent😔
Sowore is an American citizen naa. So, they have rights to query Buhari. Very soon, this man would start building nuclear weapons saying its not the business of the US and EU
EU and US;You don’t want their counseling but you want their aid,loans and Investments.
I think a Visa Ban will be good
It’s so ok Na! Smh
Toying with foreign aid. It implies we’ve found allies in China.
Very soon you will fly there and beg them to help you fight insurgency . What a president !
😁
A shameless regime.
Who said that? Was it the president (admin)?
Useless statement
U.S. UK, EU mind your business yet you will still go there an take treatment
Are you for real? Ok na! NO MORE LOANS, NO MORE HOSPITAL CHECK UPS IN THE UK, ETC! But then, don't you ever forget that no MAN IS AN ISLAND! FREESOWOREALREADY PLEASE!
We serve a living God 🇳🇬🙏 it will end in praise 😎🏌
If they should mind their business then you should somewhere cracking nuts in a village
Stupidity!!!
Yes,because they abuse human rights there too...let them get their house in order
NGRPresident is not a Democrat at all, those countries are doing better than us and they have sustainable systems in place to solve their problems.

Useless people If they are truthful about freedom of speech they should release Julian Asange with immediate effect Awọn olori buruku gbogbo
This man is sick in the head
Well , presidency is uttering a caution word , unlike el rufai that will promise them a body bag
That's right! They kill women and children allover the world fighting wars based on lies eg weapons of mass destruction and they accused others of human rights abuses. Take Nigeria business to Russia and China.
only when presidency beg for loans and aides, they won't mind their business .
It’s irresponsible to tell members of the international community to mind their business on a sensitive issue as abuse of human rights. Abuse of human rights is a justification for military action against any nation. Nigeria must respect and enforce human rights!
Wawuuuu
Wonderful so eloquent in his responses.
DoctorEmto Major General dictator buhari is acting like what they calling him 👁
realDonaldTrump
Back to military dictatorship...we shall overcome..that's certain. Shameless and clueless govt FreeSoworeNow
My Presido.. Yes they should mind their business before we shut down their embassies and deport all their nationals within our borders.
The presidency is STOOOOOPPIIIDDDDD
They said mind ur business until its time to borrow ... This government collect too many Gbas Gbos this week... I haven't seen a government this useless...
There are human right in Nigeria! cos govt are not looking the abuses of right to Human!
cnnbrk CNN cnni BBCWorld
blue_vin92 As if you can survive if they mind their business. You are just pretending to us while you crawl with your knees begging in the night.
MrFixNigeria This comment by the presidency point to one clear fact that Buhari isn't in charge, I mean Buhari can't be so dumb to tell UK to mind their business while he runs to them for healthcare.
The have senators who would not fight for us . The President's power is absolute, no checks and balances... judiciary also in his pocket
Things are getting out of hand. Buhari is increasingly becoming irresponsive to the sufferings and yearnings of Nigerians, and at the same time, being indifferent about how other countries perceive his gross abuse of human rights. It's obvious nobody means anything to him!
Baba done forget say em medical record dey UK. 😂😂😂😂😂
Butar sha’i
This is Buhari’s second tenure, as long as he’s concerned, in his clueless mind he has nothing to lose. So we shouldn’t be surprised at what he says about the international community 🤦🏿♂️
All this government need is Economic sanctions from the international community I bet you, they will have sense, hit them where it hurt the most (their pocket)
They didnt mind their business when John Kerry was visiting Northern Nigeria prior to 2015 election, they didn't mind their business when Norther Governors were gallivanting to USA to seek Obama's support prior to 2015. You are mad Buhari. You can run to China all u want.
By they really mind their business, u won't be able to go to the UK to maintain deploring state of health
I agree with. US, UK and EU to deal with their worst case of human rights abuses
Ehn
Very soon you will go back to them to borrow. Shameless fools!!!
This news might not be true ,it’s fake news
NijaActivist That's my president!
Lol... They will tell your regular traveler to not coman relax in their country, when he gives himself his periodic leave. Then, it will pepper you more 😁
Nigeria is now a super power nation. Wonderful! .. inspired by Mr👇
As expected of a dictatorship government. Rejecting anyone that tries to question them. No wonder they're all desperately trying to shut the people up with the social media bill. Nigeria PHCN Buhari NEPA blackout
Derek74399105 I beg na where them wan go borrow the next money?.
Touchy touchy civilian dictator!
We have the most unfortunate people at the sit of governance in Nigeria as media aids. Everyday they hurriedly sound irresponsible. When Nigerian president and elites are still depending on these countries for medical check up...
Any leader who believes s/he is always right will FAIL. Nigeria govt. fails to listen to the cry of the masses UK,US and EU see all that is happening and have cautioned the Nigeria govt., FG told them to SHUT UP. Very soon, we shall witness the end of this regime.
So why is Buhari not in the country minding Nigeria's issues?
Tell them to mind their money too.
dictator in the 80's. He has dusted up the playbook as an animal in agbada
This sounds very familiar, Where have i heard this before....? Ah, yes, it's was during MBuhari 'sreign as a military .....
cchukudebelu A presidency that has miscreants in it like Lauretta what do you expect?
You are looking for war
Mr 'Dubai' has recruited PT to join the crusade. Expected
cchukudebelu Awon oponu!
The same thing Abacha told them. FG bewise
The presidency and whoever wrote to these countries should be ashamed of themselves. If common sense was common, they should know their principals actions has triggered these reactions from the world. Let them fix their mess else doomsday awaits them. Nonsense
This was how Abacha thought he wasn't answerable to anyone until he ate apple..
Smart move by the Presidency.. 😂 😂 It would end in tears. 😂
That’s the result when you vote an animal in human skin into power
But they know how to request for loans from EU countries and also give their for Medical Tourism, abi?
Lol.....for midnight they will go and beg
🚶♂️🚶♂️🚶♂️
Death that will kill a dog, it makes d dog loss sense of smell of a poopoo. Pls EUinNigeria UKinNigeria StateDept USEmbassyAbuja we can abuse n extra judicially kill human, we r a sovereign state. Our dictator Major General MBuhari regime is not answerable to u. Thanks.
Do they know there are limitations to sovereignty? Nigeria is a sovereign state and so? General Buhari better go and learn about International Law.
I hope they deny Major General Buhari entry to their Country. Let's all mind our business
Hopefully they can see this..We are not asking for much,They should leave us alone,We are not scared of sanctions CNN CNN BBCNews
Yet if our president is having common cold and catarrh he runs to UK 🙄
Chai! Tomorrow now una go run go seek help. 'Be grateful to them that brought you up by hand' was an admonition to Pip(Great Expectations).
Voice of the weak. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
And they will go and use UK hospitals. UK: “mind yours hospitals in Nigeria”
Inukwa?Lmao
What a Perfect headline photo.. 😂
Fact, we r no more slaves
This is how abacha started and ended up with sanctions from these people so make una continue,we dey watch
The presidency of desperate criminals. Pride goes before destruction.
It shows the presidency is testing the waters to see the number of those discontented with the desecration of the Federal High Court before there would be any action.
These people are desperate to sink this country. We're not Saudi Arabia, neither are we Russia nor North Korea. We cannot go down this lane; we'll be doomed.
they will soon hear it! Let Nigeria govt be wynin their mouths anyhow!
The job of the UN which Us,Uk,EU involvement is to insure peace,and to insure that every human right in this fucking world is not violated so before they got involve they know wat they are doing.
dammykyle Femi Adesina is a blight on this country
Mibayo Is that what he actually said yesterday cos I watch it program(channels TV) where the questions was asked.
This people are desperate and don’t know how to manage the affairs of presidency.
When you need treatment for your ill health or loan to carry out your regime invisible projects your run to the same people. God helps us all in this country!
The nerve on Adesina. Let General Buhari catch a small cold, he'd run to this same UK.
Oh God
Prevent him from entering your country... A way of minding your business 😂😂😂
God keeps disgracing BashirAhmaad FemAdesina GarShehu AjuriNgelale AsiwajuTinubu the whole OfficialAPCNg lairs! It's so clear they are desperate people! The same foreign countries they were running 2 during 2015 elections. The same foreign countries they av stolen wealth in
How can you tell UK to mind their business, when your principal, Major General M. Buhari has a permanent bed space in their hospital? Sovereignty resides with the constitution and the people. You lost it when u abused the people and the constitution that brought you to power.
A man cannot be severely punishing his children locked up in his house and not expect neighbors' concerns as well as reactions. You can't be more sovereign than the Sovereign God who is yet democratic & compassionate, listening to appeals and lifting his ppl

I think premium times can do better than this. But this is what we get when farmers turned to journalist.
No economic nor military power. What do you have to boast about? Can you do without US, UK & EU?
And you call yourself a Media outfit. You are dense, very dense for this story you published

US, EU and UK Mind your business on human rights, but you can still give us, military hard wares (tucano aircraft) foreign loans to looth, foreign education for the children of the government officials, foreign medical trip and a hospital bed to die. Ndị ara
The road to pariah is broad and enticing. When finally attained, it breeds third term ambition or even life presidency in order to avoid the consequences of their omissions and commissions.
But u didn’t tell them to mind their business when you went to chartam house in 2014 abi
Same people he will run to for his $30bn loan
We’re fucked

“we are not answerable to the U.S., the UK or the EU.” Tomorrow you people will still find your way to their doorstep to apply for loans, There was a Country Called Nigeria
Who gave you liver to tell them to mind their business? .With all your borrowing spree?
Really ? Wow
This man is sick in the head🤔🤔
UK should mind their business, tomorrow, your principal flies there to receive his treatment and relax. When will precede your response?
Clueless leadership Leadership of the highest tyrant
