U.S. President Donald Trump has commended President Bola Tinubu for tackling issues plaguing Nigeria, especially the violence affecting Christian communities. He recently had his say in a letter to BAT, and Nigerians have been reacting.
Announcing that the US–Nigeria relationship has flourished in recent times, Trump declared that it is an honour to stand with Tinubu’s government in the fight against terrorists.
He added that America and Nigeria will keep working together to tackle security challenges afflicting parts of Nigeria.
It read, “Dear Mr President, Thank you for your thoughtful letter. Your kind words mean a great deal to me, and I appreciate your decisive leadership on behalf of the Nigerian people.
I applaud your resolve to tackle the issues plaguing your nation, especially the violence affecting Christian communities, and it is a true honor to stand with you in the fight against terrorists and to make the Federal Republic of Nigeria stronger and more prosperous.
The United States–Nigeria relationship is crucial at a time when conflict has spread across West Africa and around the world.
We both share a mutual goal of confronting terrorism in all its forms, and our historic US–Nigeria 2026 Defence Cooperation Roadmap has established a robust framework to accomplish this feat.
I am proud to have deployed United States Special Operations Forces—among the most elite military units anywhere in the world—to equip the brave men and women of the Armed Forces of Nigeria with the skills, tools and intelligence they need to protect your homeland and ensure the safety and security of citizens, particularly those of faith who have been under attack.
I look forward to our continued discussions over the course of my presidency.”
