Nnamdi Kanu Writes Trump, Says Christian Genocide in Nigeria Spread to Southeast

  • In recent weeks, US President Donald J. Trump threatened possible military action against Nigeria, while the Federal Government of Nigeria called the remarks `unfortunate, unfounded, and unacceptable interference`.
  • Economic drivers include Nigeria's engagement with the BRICS group and the Dangote Refinery challenging US commercial interests, while Trump's rhetoric reflects pressure from his conservative evangelical base, analysts say.
  • He suggested troop deployments and targeted air strikes under humanitarian justification, while observers note the US military posture warned Moscow and reasserted American assertiveness in the West Africa region.
  • Observers caution the move could unsettle regional bodies like ECOWAS as experts say the crisis risks Nigeria's sovereignty, rattles investors, and worsens stability in Sahel countries.
  • The Federal Government should seek a direct conversation between Presidents Tinubu and Trump, and mobilize the Nigerian Embassy in Washington to engage US lawmakers, Think-Tanks, and faith-based organizations, to correct misconceptions and misrepresentation of Nigeria's situation.
