Trump Threatens Military Action in Nigeria Over Christian Killings

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened possible military action against Nigeria, accusing the country’s government of allowing the killing of Christians. In a post on his Truth Social platform on Saturday, Trump warned that the United States could intervene militarily if the Nigerian government fails to stop what he called “mass slaughter” of Christians by Islamist groups. “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,” Trump wrote. He added, “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.” […]

Nigeria Rejects Trump’s ‘Country of Concern’ Tag Over Alleged Christian Killings

The Federal Government of Nigeria has rejected former U.S. President Donald Trump’s designation of the country as a “Country of Particular Concern” over alleged widespread killings of Christians, describing the claim as false, exaggerated, and misleading. In a statement released on Saturday, Kimiebi Ebienfa, spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said Trump’s assertions do not reflect Nigeria’s realities. Trump, in a post on Truth Social on Friday, alleged that “Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria,” claiming that thousands of Christians were being killed by “radical Islamists.” “Thousands of Christians are being killed. Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter. I am hereby making Nigeria a ‘Country of Particular Concern’ — but that is the least of it,” Trump said, adding that the United States “must act” to protect Christians worldwide. Responding, the Nigerian government emphasized that […]

EFCC Probes Rapper Oladips’ ₦10m Extortion Claim, Suspends Operatives

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has launched an investigation into an allegation made by Nigerian rapper Oladipupo Oladimeji, popularly known as Oladips, who accused some of the commission’s operatives of extorting ₦10 million from him during his detention in 2024. Oladips made the claim during an interview on the Trending podcast, where he recounted being arrested along with several residents of his estate in Lagos during an EFCC midnight raid in November 2024. The rapper said he spent five days in custody before being released, despite no incriminating evidence being found against him. “They collected ₦10 million from me before they released me. They didn’t find anything on me. So, what was the money for? What was all that stress and suffering for? It’s just Nigeria. Nigeria just happened to me,” he said. Reacting to the claim, the […]

Nigerians Anxious as Depot Petrol Price Climbs to ₦889 per Litre

Nigerians are growing increasingly uneasy as the depot price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), popularly known as petrol, climbed to ₦889 per litre on Thursday, up from ₦887 the previous week. Data obtained by Vanguard showed Matrix sold at the highest price of ₦889 per litre, while Aiteo offered the lowest at ₦871 per litre.

Speaking to Vanguard, Dr. Billy Gillis-Harry, National President of the Petroleum Retail Outlets Owners Association of Nigeria (PETROAN), said members would work with […]
