Trump threatens to send US military into Nigeria with ‘guns-a-blazing’

Donald Trump has threatened to send the US military into Nigeria with “guns-a-blazing” if the African country does not stem what he described as the killing of Christians by Islamists.

Mr Trump said on on Saturday that he had asked the Pentagon to map out a possible plan of attack, one day after warning that Christianity was “facing an existential threat in Nigeria”.

Yes sir.

The killing of innocent Christians in Nigeria — and anywhere — must end immediately. The Department of War is preparing for action. Either the Nigerian Government protects Christians, or we will kill the Islamic Terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities. pic.twitter.com/C0v9RHGoS1

Nigeria’s Genocide Against Christians ‘Spreading Like a Cancer’

As the genocide against Christians in Nigeria crashes on, a news outlet, TruthNigeria.com, continues to courageously shed light on the atrocities committed by jihadists against Nigerians of all religions.

“Truth Nigeria,” according to its website, “had to be launched to slice through the fog of war and the cloud of false narrative that bedevils mainstream media reporting of what many call a ‘Christian genocide’ in Nigeria that has been spreading like a cancer.”

Christian Leaders Ignore Muslim Genocide Of Nigerian Christians

For years, Christians have been systemically persecuted in Nigeria, with Muslim terrorist groups and militias periodically raiding, raping, murdering, and enslaving Christian civilians in the northern part of the country.

According to a recent article in Catholic Vote, “[F]rom 2019 to 2023, a total of 55,910 people were killed,” and “21,621 people were abducted.” During this four-year timespan, Nigeria “saw an average of eight attacks per day involving killings and/or abductions.” This has continued to this day, with “more than 7,000 Christians killed in Nigeria during the first 220 days of 2025.”

Vatican’s Secretary of State under fire for describing Islamic attacks against Christians in Nigeria as a ‘social conflict.’

Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin is under fire for remarks that downplay the terror attacks that Christians in Nigeria have been suffering at the hands of Islamic extremists for decades.

Parolin was the keynote speaker for an event held at the Vatican on Tuesday. The gathering focused on the recently released 2025 Religious Freedom Report published by Aid to the Church in Need (ACN).

ACN surveyed 196 countries for its report. It found that just under two-thirds of the world’s population live in countries with “serious or very serious violations of religious freedom.” Twenty-four countries, including Nigeria, received the “worst” category in its report: persecution.

Inside Nigeria’s horrifying ‘jungle justice’ lynchings from woman burnt alive by a mob over marriage proposal joke to crowd chanting ‘Allahu Akbar’ as they stoned man to death for blasphemy

Nigeria woman attacked for alleged Blasphemy

Amaye was working as a food vendor in the remote town of Kasuwan-Garba, Nigeria, when she was attacked by the mob.

A hysterical crowd descended and set her alight after she allegedly made what was taken as a blasphemous remark in response to a tongue-in-cheek marriage proposal at her restaurant.

What exactly was said remains unclear. But witnesses say that it was her comments that sparked the frenzy. State police said she was set ablaze before a reinforcement of security teams could arrive to protect her.

Muslims affiliated with Boko Haram killed at least 60 in overnight attack on Nigerian village

The jihadist group Boko Haram has killed more than 60 people in an overnight attack in Nigeria’s north-eastern Borno State, local officials say.

On Friday night militants struck the village of Darul Jamal, home to a military base on the Nigeria-Cameroon border, killing at least five soldiers.

The Nigerian Air Force said it killed 30 militants in strikes after receiving reports of the raid on the village, where residents had recently returned following years of displacement.

The Silent Jihadi Genocide Against Christians in Nigeria

Leah Sharibu, a Nigerian Christian, was abducted alongside more than 100 other schoolgirls in Yobe State by Islamic terrorists seven years ago. She has not been released because she refuses to renounce her Christian faith and convert to Islam. On May 14, 2025, Leah turned 22 years old—the eighth birthday she spent in captivity. The last time her mother, Rebecca, saw her, Leah was only 14.

Thousands of other Christians have since been abducted or massacred by Muslims as the jihadist genocide against Christians proceeds at full tilt in Nigeria.

The plight of Nigeria’s Christians

The persecution of Nigeria’s Christians is medieval in its horror. Villages are surrounded in the dead of night by bandits who rape and kill the inhabitants. No one is spared: women and children are among those butchered.

The Makurdi Diocese, in Nigeria’s Middle Belt Benue state, has been hit badly by this savage violence. In 2024, 549 locals in this diocese alone were murdered and dozens more kidnapped. Over 3,700 people in Makurdi have been killed since 2015. Villages have been effectively wiped off the map. Over a million Nigerians, terrified of what might await them, have chosen instead to live in Internally Displaced Person (IDP) camps.

Canada-based Nigerian woman – said to be an Igbo – calls for extermination of Yoruba and Benin people through ‘mass poisoning’

A Nigerian woman based in Ontario, Canada, has appeared in a disturbing video calling for the killing of Yoruba people of the South-Western Nigeria and Benin people in Edo State, a South-South state, through mass poisoning.

The woman – who is probably an Igbo, made the call in a TikTok live meeting video trending on social media, and vowed to start poisoning foods and waters of Yoruba and Benin people at her place of work.

She asked people of the South-East region of Nigeria, inhabited by the Igbo people to develop a ‘hard heart’ and start poisoning Yoruba people of the South-West and Benin people of the South-South by poisoning their foods and waters anywhere they see them.

Media Blames Christmas Massacre of Nigerian Christians on ‘Climate Crisis’

An attack on Christians in Nigeria over Christmas has left nearly 200 people dead. While Muslim herders are thought to be behind the violence, some major media outlets have blamed climate change for the killings, appearing to downplay existing religious conflicts.

The massacre took place on Christmas Eve in 26 different villages across the central Plateau state in the country’s interior. Locals said that bands of men armed with guns and machetes attacked villagers, killing 198 and wounding a further 300 in some of the worst anti-Christian violence seen in Nigeria in years, according to the Catholic News Agency.

Terrorists kill 150 in Christmas Eve attack on sleeping Christian villages

Update 2: Death toll now 150 with 500 wounded as of December 26.

(Jos) At least 70 unarmed men, women and children have fallen to Fulani terrorists attacking at battalion strength in Central Plateau State since December 23, according to officials speaking to Truth Nigeria senior editor Masara Kim at the scene.

“At present , 70 are dead,” said Monday Kassah, Chairman of Bokkos County to TruthNigeria. Higher numbers of casualties are feared in a series of ongoing attacks targeting Christian villages in Plateau State, Nigeria. The attacks, believed to be driven by land grab and ethnic displacements, have forced thousands of residents to evacuate their homes amidst intense gunfire by terrorists speaking the Fulani dialect, according to eyewitnesses.

🚨MASS TRAGEDY IN NIGERIA DURING CHRISTMAS🚨:

– Coordinated Jihadist assaults in Plateau have led to over 140 fatalities, a number that continues to rise.

– The attacks targeted 20 Christian communities in Central Nigeria, where homes were raided and set ablaze as residents… pic.twitter.com/CzL7w9BzOG

‘We Deal in Lead, Friend’: Nigerian Christians Are Right to Defend Themselves

We should respect the desire of a community to protect itself from destruction.

Christian farmers in Nigeria have a right to protect themselves, despite the Biden administration’s indifference.

Years ago, as I was finding my feet as a national security professional, I became friends with a wise and wonderful man, a retired Special Forces (SF) officer whose experiences reached back to the earliest days of SF, before Vietnam, before John F. Kennedy conferred the seal of presidential authority on the wearing of the Green Beret.

‘Murdered Like Animals’: The Genocide of Christians in Nigeria Reaches New Heights

The “pure genocide” of Christians in Nigeria, as it has been characterized by some international observers, has reached new levels, according to an April 10, 2023 report by the International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law, also known as “Intersociety”, a nonprofit human rights organization based in Nigeria.

According to the report, since the Islamic uprising began in 2009, 52,250 Christians “have been butchered or hacked to death” in Nigeria. With each passing year, the number of slain grows. In just the first 100 days of this year, “no fewer than 1,041 defenseless Christians were hacked to death by Nigeria’s Jihadists … [from] 1st Jan to 10th April 2023.”

Over 50,000 Christians killed in Nigeria by Muslims

Over 50,000 Christians have been killed in Nigeria since the outbreak of the Boko Haram Islamist insurgency in 2009, a newly-released report published by a Nigerian non-governmental organization has revealed.

The report, titled “Martyred Christians in Nigeria”, has been published by the International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law (Intersociety), a Nigerian-based research and investigative rights group, which has been monitoring and investigating religious persecution and other forms of religious violence by State and non-State actors across Nigeria since 2010.

Genocide in Nigeria: The Biden Administration’s Cover-Up

Swept under the rug for more than a year, one of the Biden administration’s “sins of omission” are making headlines again.

On November 17, 2021, the State Department inexplicably removed Nigeria from its list of Countries of Particular Concern (CPC list). These are nations that either engage in, or tolerate, violations of religious freedom. The Biden State Department removed Nigeria from the list despite strong objections from several human rights organizations, many of which insist that Christians are even undergoing a genocide in Nigeria.
