Nigerian govt aware of policies fueling Christian persecution, chooses media manipulation – Ted Cruz

November 15, 2025 (updated November 15, 2025) Published by

United States Senator, Ted Cruz has claimed that the Nigerian government is aware of policies fueling alleged Christian persecution in Nigeria, but chooses media manipulation over accountability.

In a statement he posted on his X account on Friday, Cruz also warned about a PR campaign being waged by the Nigerian government to fight the accusations.

Nigerian officials know their policies have created an environment in which Christians are being persecuted and slaughtered, including their enforcement of sharia law and their tolerance of Islamist violence,” Cruz said (via Fox News Digital).

“Instead of reversing these policies, they are waging a media campaign to escape exposure and accountability. I intend to prevent them from doing so.”

This is coming after the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Nigeria, Yusuf Tuggar, recently spoke on the alleged Christian genocide in Nigeria on Piers Morgan Uncensored.

United States President Donald Trump had designated Nigeria as a country of particular concern a few weeks ago.

Trump cited what he described as ongoing violence against Christians and the failure of the Nigerian government to protect religious minorities.

The US leader also said he had asked the Department of Defense to prepare for possible military action in Nigeria if the Nigerian government “continues to allow the killing of Christians.”

But the Nigerian government has strongly denied the persecution of any religious groups in the country.

Tinubu’s aide reveals why President won’t intervene in Nnamdi Kanu’s trial

November 11, 2025 (updated November 11, 2025) Published by

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Community Engagement (South-East), Mrs Chioma Wesley, has explained why President Bola Tinubu will not interfere in the ongoing trial of Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.

Wesley was addressing State House correspondents after she briefed Tinubu at Aso Villa on Thursday.

Nnamdi Kanu’s case is in court, and the President cannot make any pronouncement on it,” she said.

He abides by the rule of law. So, for now, we wait for the court to make that decision.”

Wesley’s comments come amid calls for Kanu to be released from the custody of the Department of State Service, DSS.

Kanu was first arrested in 2015 and granted bail in 2017.

The IPOB leader then left Nigeria after a military operation in his hometown, Afaraukwu, Abia State.

He was re-arrested and returned to Nigeria in June 2021 and has remained in DSS custody since then.

Wicked, Unpatriotic! – Labour Party Blasts Tinubu As Trump Threatens War

November 3, 2025 (updated November 3, 2025) Published by

The Labour Party (LP) has accused President Bola Tinubu of hypocrisy and denial over targeted attacks on Christians.

The interim National Publicity Secretary, Tony Akeni, pointed out that while Goodluck Jonathan was President, Tinubu never hesitated to call him out over the killings perpetrated by Boko Haram.

He stated this during an interview with Punch while reacting to President Donald Trump’s public threat to use military force over the alleged killings of Christians in Nigeria

The U.S. President, in a fiery post on his Truth Social platform, declared that Nigeria had been designated a “Country of Particular Concern” and directed his Department of War to “prepare for possible action” if the killings continued.

Reacting, Akeni said, “Eleven years ago, before Bola Tinubu railroaded the system to declare him President, he tweeted in 2014 that the killing of Christian worshippers was condemnable and questioned Jonathan’s competence.

At that time, about 11,000 Christians had been killed by Boko Haram in four years. Another 6,500 died between 2010 and 2015. Under Tinubu, that figure has skyrocketed to over 14,000 within two years, nearly double the PDP-era rate.”

Akeni described Tinubu’s dismissal of targeted Christian killings as “wicked, godless, and unpatriotic,” and commended Trump and other U.S. officials for their “courage and conviction.”

He also urged the U.S. to extend protection to liberal Muslim communities that have stood against extremism.

They have shown that a united Nigeria, irrespective of religion or politics, is possible if we have good leaders,” he said.

President Tinubu, in a statement posted on X, rejected Trump’s classification of Nigeria as religiously intolerant, insisting that the country remains committed to constitutional guarantees of religious freedom.

The management of Jadrolita, alongside Jadrolita herself, unequivocally and categorically refutes this egregious claim in its entirety,” the statement read.

It added that Jarvis had “never engaged in any form of illicit financial conduct” and demanded that Peller issue an immediate public apology within 48 hours.

Again, Trump speaks on alleged Christian genocide in Nigeria

November 3, 2025 (updated November 3, 2025) Published by

The president of the United States of America, Donald Trump, has again addressed the alleged killing of Christians in Nigeria by some Islamic terrorists.

Speaking in a 15-second video while on board Air Force One on Sunday, November 2, 2025, the American President said the US government would not sit back and watch the ongoing acts of terrorism in Africa’s most populous nation.

He said, “They’re killing a record number of Christians in Nigeria and the country is going bad also. You know, that part of the world, very bad. They’re killing the Christians and killing them in very numbers and we’re not gonna allow that to happen.”

This reaffirmation by Trump on the alleged killings comes barely two days after he announced the designation of Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern.

Describing Nigeria as a “now disgraced country”, Trump also threatened to invade the African nation with troops from the US Department of War while ending the flow of funds for various humanitarian interventions.

He said, “If the Nigerian Government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the USA 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!”Trump wrote on social media.These declarations by Trump followed a series of allegations of Christian genocide in the Northern part of Nigeria, including a bill – The Nigeria Religious Freedom Accountability Act of 2025 – which was sponsored by US Senator Ted Cruz.

Cruz, had, under the International Religious Freedom Act, cited what he described as “the world’s deadliest persecution of Christians.

While his move caused commendation by some Nigerians across the globe, the Federal Government at different times denied such claims, describing the US lawmaker’s allegations as a calculated effort to spread false narratives about Nigeria.
