LIVE: Nigeria Pushes Back Against Trump’s Christian Persecution Claims | Firstpost Africa | N18G



Nigeria, on November 5, said that its designation as a violator of religious freedom by the United States was “fundamentally misinformed.” Nigeria and the United States have been embroiled in a diplomatic row since President Donald Trump said on October 31 that he was naming the West African nation a Country of Particular Concern (CPC) over the killing of Christians by “radical Islamists”. The country’s long-running jihadist insurgency in its northeast, waged by Boko Haram and Islamic State-linked militants, has left more than 40,000 dead and displaced some two million, according to UN estimates. Trump, who doubled down on his concerns over the “killing of Christians” throughout the weekend, later threatened military strikes on the country.

    But buhari was the person boko Haram chose for negotiations. Buhari was the person who handed over APC presidential tickets. To Jagaban, that leader
    Buhari give justice to detained boko haram and deploy them to Nigeria Army's as represented boko haram.
    Since then no one farm peaceful, we knew nothing about our mineral resources, we pay over taxt Nigeria kids are being bully when they speak their native languages in their school.
    Nigeria children needs help by all means as soon as possible
