US government know the right thing to do. That's why they can't stoop low to defend unacceptable issues like this. Coons and other senators may have been palmgreese with untrue story.

We are no longer colonized. Do we tell America how to run their Government or what president Trump should do. You guys should stop this nonsense.

I beg who know shot cut to comot for Nigeria.

ChrisCoons God Has really shown Nigerians our enemies, sowere and his online media are Nigeria's enemy. You will soon be forgotten

ChrisCoons Let him settle the impeachment palava in his country first.

ChrisCoons Children. US being bastion of democracy and home of the free with freedom of speech to threaten the govt, to call for anarchy etc should release the aforementioned people with immediate effect .....2.

ChrisCoons Nigeria Senator calls for immediate release of Activist and Patriot Julian Assange- a prisoner of conscience and symbol of freedom of speech. He also calls for unconditional release of all children being kept in detention camps. This is a breach of fundamental right of those ..1

ChrisCoons Who I'm be. Chinese senator support his arrest .if by foreign comment!

ChrisCoons I’m very sure, even if Her Majesty, The Queen of England and president Donald J. Trump plead with Muhammadu Buhari to release Sowore as order by the court. He will never comply. He’s neither a democrat nor liberal. He’s a pro-military.

Please you guys should wait let me leave before we hear US-Nigeria trade war. I no get power abeg.

ChrisCoons Let ChrisCoons say exactly what Sowore said about Nigeria, DSS and the presidency, to USA, FBI and US president, if he will be free man.

ChrisCoons If they really want Sowore out asap, they should start lobbying GOP members. If the get their support then a bill is likely to be passed before being sent to Congress. They also need to find a way to convince Mr. Trump coz he might decide not to sign unless it’s veto proof.

ChrisCoons MBuhari must go

As the Chief Colonial Master Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria!
