United States President Donald Trump has ordered the US Department of Defense to “prepare for possible military action” in Nigeria if the Nigerian government continues to “allow the murder of Christians.”
The statement came after Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu reacted to Trump’s statements that Nigeria “is a country of special concern” for allegedly failing to curb the persecution of Christians.
“If the Nigerian government continues to allow the murder of Christians, the United States will immediately suspend all aid and assistance to Nigeria and may very well invade this now disgraced country, guns blazing, to completely eliminate the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrific atrocities,” Trump wrote in Truth Social.
