Former Lawmaker Ben Murray-Bruce warns against World Wâr III

Founder of Silverbird Group and former senator, Ben Murray-Bruce, has warned of the likelihood of a future global conflict, possibly World War III, stating that while much of the world could face devastation, Africa, and particularly Nigeria, may remain largely unaffected.

Speaking during a live interview with global affairs expert Dane Waters, Murray-Bruce described the prospect of another world war as “inevitable,” citing the growing global instability, proliferation of nuclear weapons, and the rise of what he called “trigger-happy” leaders on the international stage.

Despite these troubling trends, he expressed confidence that Nigeria would be shielded from the worst consequences of such a conflict due to its non-nuclear stance and generally peaceful diplomatic posture.

He said:

“We’re in big trouble and as long as we have the kind of leaders we have in the world today, I see World War Three coming and it’s going to be terrible.

“The beauty of World War III is that it’s not going to affect Africa. Africa will be spared. You guys are going to fight all across the world but we are going to be safe in Nigeria.

“Nobody is going to be fighting in Nigeria because we have no territorial ambitions, we have no desire to acquire nuclear weapons, we don’t want to fight anybody, we’re friends with all our West African neighbours.

“So yeah, there’s going to be a World War III, the rest of world will be destroyed and we’ll be happy to welcome Americans, Israelis and Iranians to Nigeria.

“And we’ll make sure you all have your visas to come here because we don’t want you to come as immigrants and we don’t want to treat you very badly when you come here but we’re going to treat you well when you come visit us in Nigeria.

“I think we are in trouble. I think there’s too much violence in the world today. I think access to weapons is easy. I think we have a lot of trigger-happy leaders across the world, and because they are trigger happy, they don’t care.

“We have lot of despots and crazy people. So, war is inevitable. It goes back to like 1945, 1939, 1917. First world war, second world war, Korean war, Vietnam war.

“I think there are many crazy people in the world and as long as we elect crazy people into leadership positions, this is what we’re going to have because it’s the leaders that cause the war not the people.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>>
