Former senator and public commentator, Ben Murray-Bruce, has praised the collaborative efforts between the United States and Nigeria following recent airstrikes on ISIS targets, stressing that the fight against terrorism must be treated as a shared global responsibility.
Speaking via a post on X (formerly Twitter), Murray-Bruce described ISIS as a persistent threat to international peace and security, noting that Nigeria cannot be expected to shoulder the burden alone.
“ISIS remains a grave threat to global peace and security. Confronting such a menace should never be Nigeria’s responsibility alone, especially given our limited resources. It is far more effective—and responsible—when the international community acts collectively,” he said.
Murray-Bruce expressed strong support for the military action, noting that Nigeria’s role in providing critical intelligence was key to the success of the operation.
“I believe the decision by the United States to act, with Nigeria collaborating and supplying vital intelligence, was the right one. I commend President Donald Trump and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for their leadership. The strikes were necessary, justified, and ultimately the right course of action,” he added.
His remarks underscore the importance of international cooperation in tackling global security challenges, while also highlighting Nigeria’s limited capacity to confront highly organised terrorist groups such as ISIS without external support.
The statement reinforces growing calls for sustained global partnerships in the fight against terrorism, particularly in regions facing complex security threats.
