While we cannot in all honesty wish away the cruel and evil killing of minorities in the north central states of Kwara, Benue, Plateau, southern kaduna etc, i strongly believe that the recent interest of the Trump administration is based on economic agenda and nothing altruistic. In this regard, I don’t think Donald Trump was misinformed.

Trump recently placed a 15% tariff on Nigeria and the country responded by banning the importation of 25 certain items from the country. The Tinubu administration has also been working on increasing local refining of petroleum products. Recently, a 15% tax on PMS importation was introduced to further discourage importation of petroleum products. This has seriously affected European and American refineries which are owned by Trump and his big oil buddies. They are not happy that Nigeria is prioritizing energy independence at the detriment of American and European oil companies.

Again, Nigeria’s recent romance with BRICS is unsettling the Trump administration. The BRICS countries are planning to issue a new currency so as to sidestep the US dollars and Nigeria has signed up to be a part of the BRICS monetary union. Trump had vowed to make sure this does not happen. The Yuan - Naira currency swap between China and Nigeria that has recently helped to strengthen the Naira is also another source of concern to the US.

So, a combination of all these issues plus Nigeria’s stance against the GAZA genocide is why Donald Trump is targeting the Nigeria government. If they can’t control Nigeria, they will do everything possible to destroy the country.
Coupled with the fact that Nigeria stood with Gaza against the Israeli genocide. Nigeria doesn't look like the lapdog it was in the past. The US must be careful not to make more enemies in ecowas again

How many churches were burnt?

How many were killed during church service?
This questions you ask simply means that you are not in terms with realities in nigeria. Should I start from the one that happened at your backyard in Owo or the one that happened in Bege Baptist Church in Kaduna where about 40 worshippers were abducted or severally that have occurred in Kaduna, should I mention Abuja, Bauchi, the list is endless.

What about Deborah, what about the chirstian igbo man jailed for killing a Muslim herdsman in self defence, and in obvious collaboration with Tinubu govt he was carefully exempted from the list of those granted presidential pardon but a woman who killed her husband in an obvious murder was granted pardon and later got reduced term after public outcry.

There is genocide against chriatians in Nigeria. It is a known fact.

Is there any Christian group killing people in Nigeria? Why is it that Moslems are the ones killing people always in Nigeria?
IPOB is an example of such groups killing Christians. The only difference is that the lives of those Christians they kill doesn't matter because the victims loved the killers. When Christians are killing Christians in the SE it's okay but it's wrong if moslems are killing Christians. I'm not sure you can win this argument since IPOB is there killing people in their region. The moslem community especially MURIC should tender detailed information about all these to some politicians in the US. Nigeria isn't the only country facing terrorism issues on earth

Shehu Sani should fear God.

Is he not in this country when Christians have been brutally massaquered in Kaduna, Plateau,Taraba,Benue and minority Borno?

Unless he's pretending,he can't say there is no genocide against christians in Nigeria.

Untill we tell ourselves The Truth, Nigeria cannot survive Islamic jihadists genocide against christians in the country.

Trump is right.

The situation is still pretty much the same!

Don't hide under this to insult our able president. He is still the best at moment trying to solve divers problems including the ones ipob/ESN created that resulted into killing many igbos.

The truth is that if obi were to be president by now, every sector will be worse by now even his mushroom container economy tricks will not work. He would have created several more problems than he can solve. So, at moment; Tinubu remains the best man for the job, himself is never a terrorist or interested to be one. So, pray for your best tool (Tinubu) to get the work done
Y'all are struggling to rope Obi in. Nice try.

Una go explain tire, evidence don dey, POTUS don get evidence of the atrocities of Nigerian state.
Why hasn't the terrorism for over 15 years not reducing or subtling. A lot of soldiers had been killed, a lot of monetary resources has been allocated for military hardware, buhari even bought super tucanoes jet fighters.
Who are the jihadist expansionists in Nigeria, what is their mission statement.

Why did Trump just give broke Argentina $40b to save their economy, you think the US is just nice or stupid?

That's why I asked you to list out the things you know that US has benefited from Nigeria, that shouldn't be hard for you to do.

Why Should Muslims kill Christians??

Are we in a war with them??

At least 99% of terrorists are Muslims, so if them kill Muslims, no wahala but why should you kill another man cos of he has a different faith from yours

That's what the US is saying
Re: 'Country Of Particular Concern': Trump Was Misinformed - Shehu Sani by haggai247: 12:13am On Nov 02, 2025
Trump is not the one calling the shot.

It's a direct order from the pope the head of all Christian in the world.

The last straw was the yelwata massacre.

Despite Intel about the attack the military did nothing about it.

The pope has first hand knowledge of it and lost friends in that town.

He dutied trump and other Christian to act.


The Yelwata massacre was a massacre of Christian villagers which took place between June 13 and 14, 2025 in the Nigerian village of Yelwata.

It's is estimated that around 100 to 200 people were killed and about 3,000 were displaced.

Nigerians be wise ,don't let them turn your country into a full war zone. That's their trade, to instigate war and destabilize a sovereign nation.
Nigerians be wise.
Shut up abeg

Is Nigeria not at war with herself ? How do you explain the ongoing killings that has ravaged the country ?

Human safety is no longer guaranteed in this country and you want the people to keep quiet so that the Muslims will continue to annihilate Christians ..

Trump should do anything he could to put this country on the right track

Nigerian government must be given minimum deliverables and benchmarks to prevent US military action....

(1) Stop the fulani banditry and arrest the savages

(2) resettle xtian refugees in their ancestral lands

(3) Pay compensation to surviving families and rebuild destroyed xtian communities

(4) Identify closeted jihadists embedded in Nigerian govt and military and turf them out!

(5) release all xtians in detention who took up arms to defend their land!

(6) the US must ensure that Nigerians are giving the right to run their own police force in their state and local govt with appropriate federal checks and balances!
