Trump Declares: ‘We Are Going To Do Things Nigeria Will Not Be Happy About’

In order to stop what he described as the targeted killing of Christians in the West African nation, US President Donald Trump has escalated his threat of military action in Nigeria, stating that he would not rule out airstrikes or ground forces.

Trump reiterated the warning in a video message on Wednesday, accusing “radical Islamists” of carrying out a “mass slaughter” of Christians and threatening to take action if the Nigerian government did not put an end to the violence. On October 31, Trump redesignated Nigeria as a “country of particular concern.”

Trump used forthright language to detail potential US actions in the recorded speech, which was given behind a lectern wearing his official seal. He stated that the US might both withdraw aid and launch direct military action.

He stated, “If the Nigerian government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the USA will immediately stop all aid assistance to Nigeria.

“We are going to do things to Nigerians that Nigeria is not going to be happy about and may very well go into that now-disgraced country, guns blazing, to completely wipe out the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities.”

He warned that any attack would be “vicious and sweet,” urged Nigerian authorities to act quickly, and instructed the US Department of War to “prepare for possible actions.”

“I am giving the Department of War instructions to get ready for potential actions. If we launch an attack, it will be as vicious and sweet as the terrorist thugs’ attacks on our beloved Christians. He advised the Nigerian government to act quickly before it’s too late.

The US president described the problem as existential for Christians in Nigeria.

In Nigeria, Christianity is in danger of going extinct. There are thousands and thousands of Christians being murdered. “This mass murder is the fault of radical Islamists,” Trump declared, urging Congress to look into the claims right away.

He requested that House Appropriations Committee Chairman Tom Cole and Representative Riley Moore investigate the matter and provide a fast report.

“I am requesting that Congressman Riley Moore, along with Chairman Tom Cole and the House Appropriations Committee, look into this issue right away and get back to me,” he stated.

Beyond military possibilities, Trump warned of the instant suspension of US funding should the deaths persist and portrayed the administration’s stance as part of a global effort to preserve Christian communities.

“We stand ready, willing, and able to save our great Christian population around the world,” he declared. “The United States cannot stand by while such atrocities are happening in Nigeria and numerous other countries.”
