Christians in Nigeria have welcomed Donald Trump’s threat to send the US military to the West African nation ‘guns-a-blazing’ – but its leaders are wary.
Nigeria has been roiled by internal violence in the wake of a jihadist insurgency spearheaded by extremist group Boko Haram in the northeast since 2009.
Trump, 79, had already designated Nigeria a ‘country of particular concern,’ but he took his condemnation of the situation in the country even further last week after hearing about it on Fox News, threatening to cut aid and even send in US troops.
