U.S. President Donald Trump announced that he has directed the Department of Defense to prepare for potential military intervention in Nigeria if the Nigerian government fails to stop ongoing attacks on Christians. In a post on his Truth Social account, Trump condemned the violence and accused Nigerian authorities of allowing what he described as the “mass killing of Christians” to continue unchecked.
Trump stated that the United States would immediately halt all forms of aid and assistance to Nigeria, citing the government’s inability to curb the violence. He emphasized that the U.S. might “very well go into that now disgraced country, guns-a-blazing, to completely wipe out the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities.”
The former president’s remarks have sparked international debate, drawing attention to the growing religious conflict in Nigeria, where extremist groups have targeted Christian communities for years. Trump’s statement signals a hardline approach toward nations accused of religious persecution, aligning with his previous calls for stronger U.S. action against global terrorism.
Human rights organizations have repeatedly raised concerns over attacks on Christians in northern and central Nigeria, often linked to extremist groups such as Boko Haram and the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP). Trump’s threat to take military action marks one of the strongest public responses from a U.S. leader regarding the crisis.
As tensions rise, analysts note that Trump’s comments could influence U.S. foreign policy discussions, especially among conservative voters who view him as a defender of Christian rights worldwide. Whether the U.S. will follow through on Trump’s warning remains uncertain, but his statement has reignited global attention on Nigeria’s ongoing religious violence and the international community’s responsibility to address it.
