United States President, Donald Trump, has labelled Nigeria a disgraced country.
This is as he threatened to deploy military forces in the Africa’s most populous country over alleged genocide against Christians is not stopped in the country.
Trump, in a post on his Truth Social platform on Saturday, deployed the language many would consider undiplomatic as he directed the Department of War to prepare for “possible action” if the killings continued.
The US President also threatened to halt all aid and assistance to Nigeria if President Bola Tinubu’s administration failed to end the alleged persecution and killing of Christians.
“If the Nigerian Government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the U.S.A. will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria, and may very well go into that now disgraced country, ‘guns-a-blazing,’ to completely wipe out the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities.
“I am hereby instructing our Department of War to prepare for possible action. If we attack, it will be fast, vicious, and sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attack our CHERISHED Christians,” he said.
The Federal Government has yet to respond to the threat as of press time.
