Tinubu Gave The Go-Ahead For US Strikes On Terrorists – Yusuf Tuggar

Bola Tinubu

Nigerian Foreign Minister Yusuf Tuggar has said that the country provided the United States with intelligence on jihadists before the Christmas Day strikes by US forces. Recall that Trump recently ordered an attack on Islamic State militants in the Northwest of the country.

Speaking to ChannelsTV, Tuggar disclosed that he spoke regularly with US State Secretary Marco Rubio, and President Bola Tinubu gave the go-ahead to launch the strikes.

He added that Nigeria’s approach to the fight against terrorism was not influenced by the religion of the victims.

His words, “It’s Nigeria that provided the intelligence.

We spoke twice. We spoke for 19 minutes before the strike and then we spoke again for another five minutes before it went on.”

WOW.
