US President Donald Trump on Sunday repeated his threat of a military operation in Nigeria over killings of Christians, after the Nigerian presidency suggested a meeting to resolve the issue.

Asked by by reporters aboard Air Force One if he was considering US troops on the ground in Nigeria or air strikes, Trump replied: “Could be, I mean, a lot of things — I envisage a lot of things.”

“They’re killing the Christians and killing them in very large numbers. We’re not going to allow that to happen,” he added.

In an explosive post on his Truth Social platform on Saturday, Trump said that he asked the Pentagon to map out a possible plan of attack in Nigeria, one day after warning that Christianity was “facing an existential threat” in Africa’s most populous country.

In his post, Trump said that if Nigeria does not stem the killings, the United States will attack and “it will be fast, vicious, and sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attack our CHERISHED Christians.”

Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s spokesman Daniel Bwala told AFP on Sunday that “Nigeria is US’s partner in the global fight against terrorism. When leaders meet there would be better outcomes.”

“Nigeria welcomes US support to fight terrorism as long as it respects our territorial integrity,” he said.

“We do not see the (Trump’s social media post) in the literal sense,” he said.

“We know that Donald Trump has his own style of communication,” he said, suggesting the post was a way to “force a sit-down between the two leaders so they can iron out a common front to fight their insecurity.”

Earlier Bwala had suggested in a post on X that the two leaders could meet soon.
“As for the differences as to whether terrorists in Nigeria target only Christians or in fact all faiths and no faiths, the differences if they exist, would be discussed and resolved by the two leaders when they meet in the coming days, either in State House or White House.”

Bwala, who was speaking on the phone from Washington, declined to disclose details of any potential meeting.

Trump posted on Friday that “thousands of Christians are being killed (and) Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter.”

Nigeria has denied that Christians have been targeted by jihadist attacks more than other faiths.

“The characterisation of Nigeria as religiously intolerant does not reflect our national reality,” Tinubu said on social media Saturday.

Anything to save the lives of Christian is welcomed..

Nigerians are happy and exicted!!

Only the enemies of Nigeria who want the genocide to continue are afraid of America..

God Bless The United States Of America!!!

No foreign troops on Nigerian soil, not even for a day. We will handle it ourselves.

But you have foreign terrorists on your soil, killing, raping, kidnapping your people, destroying communities, taking over communities

Trump is taking this for a comedy now

Muslims in Nigeria claims Muslims are killed too.

Then why are they against those coming to stop killing of Christians and Muslims too.

Why do Nigeria Muslims see Trump attack on Boko Haram terrorists as attack on Muslims?

Does it means Nigeria Muslims are supporting Boko Haram terrorists?


Shouldn't we all Christians and Muslims be happy that aid is coming to stop what Nigeria military couldn't?


Shouldn't Christians and Muslims be preparing to cook for US military men if they come for our help?

But your Nigeria government under Buhari went to foreign Land and kidnapped Mazi Nnamdi Kanu because he's vocal about fulanis herdmen killing in Nigeria?

President Bola Tinubu should ignore Trump and his threats. Nigeria is a sovereign nation and we will not take orders from anyone on how to handle our internal issues.

God bless Nigeria.

When Nigeria turns to YEMEN or LIBYA courtesy of US intervention, your eye go clear.

The trouble is mostly in the northeast now. If they come, even the south will become targets of Boko and others, with suicide bombs etc. Just escalation all round.

It always gets worse when Americans enter.

Go and ask other countries.

I guess Bola Tinubu now understands what invasion of sovereignty means when he was planning to invade Niger Republic? Donald Trump should liaise with the UN to take a decisive action on the genocide in northern Nigeria especially against the Christians.

How can you say Air and land operations,make una carry war ship join, because of politicians that will escape with their yatch


Sea supposed follow some of them may follow river escape

Lol… I repeat myself… Trump should give Christians Visa free to relocate to America… invading will cause more harm than good to both faiths. Do you want to Kill Tinubu and leave his pastor wife?

Do you want to Kill Musa and leave his Deborah gf?

Anyhow. Just help get rid of those Islamic blood sucking demons out.

Since our own tyrant has been jittery, the bull of America has seen food to feast on for the next two weeks.

Aboki dey tell Trump to stay out of Nigerian Internal affairs

The same Aboki dey put mouth for Palestine and Gaza internal affairs

It's getting serious hmmm

You wish he was 😜

Terrorist will learn hard lessons soon....

By the way, most of the things you're hearing are from same interview segmented into different news. Like this news is from yesterday.

If the killing doesn't STOP or reduced, terrorist will learn very hard lessons

foreigners like the bandits you imported from niger and mali?

If the US step foot in Nigeria.. Yahoo boys will cash out madly...it will be the new Afghanistan format..

President Bola Tinubu is actively addressing the situation in Nigeria. Any threats from foreign powers will not sway us. We are a sovereign nation and will handle our internal affairs as we see fit.

You're welcome @potus.

The government of Nigeria is playing ethnic, tribal, regional and religious politics with human lives in Nigeria. Islamisation is real and ongoing in northern and middle belt.

Nigerians are happy and exited!!

You are a funny lot.

Let's start by asking ourselves who is a Christian. Are you one?

Is Trump himself a Christian? Who gives him right to be the defender of the faith?

Suddenly everyone has become a Christian in Nigeria - bunch of church goers.,

Please oooo they should not touch my building... my building is the one with black roof two storey

Please spell words correctly when you post, and try to use perfect grammar and punctuation.

Yes soooo ooooo. Trump will do the needful. Trump no dey waste time here.

Let him ignore Trump to further peril than we already are in.

Anything to save us is welcomed.
