This episode examines the suspicious timing between Nigeria's refusal to accept Venezuelan deportees from the US and the sudden emergence of news reports about Christian massacres in the country. We explore how media narratives may be weaponized against nations that stand up to pressure from powerful countries like the United States.

• Nigerian leader quoted Public Enemy's Flavor Flav to reject Trump's deportation demands
• Nigeria cited its 230 million population as reason for refusing Venezuelan deportees
• Shortly after rejection, Western media began reporting on "horrific massacres" against Christians
• Reports emphasized shocking details about babies and children being burned alive
• The suspicious timing suggests potential media manipulation as retaliation for diplomatic defiance
• Critical analysis of how negative press may follow when nations exercise sovereignty
• Importance of questioning media narratives, especially after moments of diplomatic tension
