U.S. FUNDS BOKO HARAM, PUNISHES NIGERIA FOR TRRORISM At the 12 March US House of Representatives hearing on religious persecutions in Nigeria, Africa Subcommittee Chairman Chris Smith called on Congress and the Trump administration to impose sanctions on Nigeria for extremist group Boko Haram persecuting Christians. Oddly enough, the insurgents have long sought to overthrow the Nigerian government that is now under threat of US sanctions. Boko Haram aims to govern the country under their radical version of Sharia law and has been active since 2009, particularly in northern Nigeria. By 2021, the group’s trrorism had displaced 2.4 million people in the Lake Chad region. In January alone, a Boko Haram attack in the northeastern state of Borno, the epicentre of the trror attacks, reportedly klled 40 civilians, just a drop in the state's 38,000-person death toll between 2011 and 2023. Although Smith's request may sound noble, the irony is that US Congressman Scott Perry claimed on 13 February that the US Agency for International Development (USAID) had been funding trrorist organisations, including Boko Haram, Al Qaeda and ISIS. Nigerians have long sounded the alarm on foreign powers' role in strengthening Boko Haram's capacity. On 18 February, Nigeria's former foreign minister, Bolaji Akinyemi, also lodged similar claims to Perry's. He said that investigations revealed that locals report foreigners delivering weapons and supplies to the militants. Boko Haram does indeed pose a threat to Nigeria's security. However, in light of these accusations and given the United States’ long history of manufacturing crises by arming trrorists to destabilise states before swooping in with their 'Captain America' cape, can US sanctions really be the answer? What do you think? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below. Video credit: House Foreign Affairs Committee Republicans on YouTube (House Foreign Affairs Committee Majority on X)

The House representative has outrightly rejected the narrative by the US Senate that frames Nigeria's security crisis as 'genocide against Christians' or state-sponsored persecution. In a motion presented by Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu, and supported by all members of the House of Representatives, the narrative put forth by the US Senate describing Nigeria's security issues as "genocide against Christians" or as state-sponsored persecution was strongly refuted. The motion calls for the relevant committees to, within 21 days, work in coordination with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Nigerian Embassy in Washington DC, and all pertinent security agencies to submit a formal diplomatic protest to the sponsors of the bill against Nigeria.

The chairman of the United States House of Representatives’ Foreign Affairs Committee Brian Mast said during a House hearing on Syria: 📌Syria has seen "too many incident" since the collapse of Assad's regime, including violations on minorities. 📌 There are ongoing challenges in Syria, including presence of foreign fighters - "many of them backed by Turkey." 📌 He said the recent attacks on Kurdish forces by Damascus are "unacceptable." 📌The attacks forced US to transfer ISIS prisoners from Syria to Iraq, which is a "serious concern." 📌 He opposed the presence of Russia in Syria. 📌Mast also said that Syrian interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa has told him that he wishes to "liberate" himself from his jihadist past. 📌 "Syria is nowhere close to where they need to be today." 📌He said US is not satisfied with the "progress" Sharaa has made so far and sees some of his actions as "steps backwards." 📌 Mast also said Sharaa has to "do better," adding that he does not have a blank cheque from Washinton.

House Republicans (House Republicans) have instructed us to keep them actively informed regarding election integrity concerns, as well as allegations that certain senior officials within the current Nigerian government may be complicit in violence and targeted attacks against #Christian communities in Northern Nigeria. Nigeria is a sovereign nation. However, President Donald J. Trump and Congressional Republicans have made clear that they will not remain passive in the face of widespread reports of violence against Christian populations, nor ignore circumstances in which the current Nigerian government appears unwilling or unable to protect its citizens while potentially circumventing the will of the electorate to retain power. Additionally, a circulating video, the authenticity and full context of which remain under review, of Nigerian President #Tinubu’s Chief of Staff, (Femi Gbajabiamila), allegedly inciting disruption of Nigerian opposition party (African Democratic Congress) activities, is concerning, particularly as the alleged disruption is reportedly being cited by Nigeria’s electoral authorities (INEC Nigeria) as justification for invalidating opposition party leadership. This raises further concerns regarding potential electoral interference. There are also claims that Mr. Gbajabiamila holds U.S. citizenship and that his alleged statements could be construed as incitement affecting U.S. interests. Donald J.

Brian Mast, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and also the biggest advocate for lifting the Caesar sanctions against Syria, said the following: We know that al-Julani was previously an armed member of al-Qaeda, and this is a source of concern for the United States. The attack on the SDF is a concern for us, and we lifted the sanctions on the condition that minorities be protected, which has not happened. We know what Julani did against the Alawites, Druze, and Kurds. Al-Julani promised us that he would work for Syria, and this was a condition set by America, that he would protect minorities, and that he would be an ally of America in the fight against ISIS and terrorism.

Nicki Minaj spoke at the United Nations on Tuesday about the ongoing alleged persecution of Christians in Nigeria. The rapper received some backlash from her fanbase for speaking about the conflict, because while President Trump purports that Christians are being persecuted in Nigeria, the Nigerian government has vehemently rejected the claims. Earlier this month, President Trump threatened to stop all aid to Nigeria, accusing the Nigerian government of failing to rein in the persecutions of Christians and saying he will label it a “country of particular concern." Vladimir Duthiers, who spent time reporting in Nigeria, breaks down what is happening in the region and the history of Nigeria's designation as a "country of concern." #nickiminaj #nigeria #news

🇳🇬 No, the president whose wife is a Christian pastor is not committing a genocide against Christians in Nigeria. Tucker Carlson spoke with international attorney Bob Amsterdam, who represents Christians persecuted around the world and has worked in Nigeria for over 50 years. “The Nigerians have no idea where this is coming from,” Amsterdam said. “There are 230 million Nigerians who long for a strong relationship with the United States… and we ignore them until we condemn them for a genocide that is absolutely not a genocide.” “Let’s be clear: President Tinubu’s wife is a Christian pastor. This is not targeted at Christians. There are probably an equal or more number of Muslim deaths,” he said. Amsterdam said Nigeria’s leadership “is richly populated by Christians,” and the violence is “tribal and regional, not a government campaign against Christians,” as Trump has claimed. He blamed the deaths and chaos on weapons flooding in after Libya’s collapse and on Tuareg militias armed by France. Carlson added that the sudden focus on Nigeria looks like “coordinated propaganda meant to distract U.S. Christians” from persecution of churches elsewhere in the world.

On Thursday, 12 June - just before Israeli operations against Iran began - I had the privilege, on behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to accompany Caitlyn Jenner on a visit to the October 7 massacre sites and other sacred religious landmarks in Jerusalem. Caitlyn listened with compassion to the voices of survivors. Later, as Iranian rockets rained down on our cities, she stood with us in solidarity. She believes in peace through strength - and in the vital alliance between Israel and the United States. Thank you Caitlyn Jenner , for being a true friend of Israel and a voice for peace.

BREAKING: Secretary of War Hegseth reveals President Trump ordered the Pentagon to prioritize protecting Nigerian Christians targeted by ISIS — and says the mission quietly led to the killing of ISIS’ second-in-command in Nigeria. Hegseth says U.S. intelligence gathered during the operation helped lead to the deaths of “hundreds” of ISIS fighters tied to attacks on Christians and threats against the U.S. homeland. "There's a lot of things we do that the media pays attention to, and a lot of things that the president empowers the Department to do on behalf of the American people, that he deserves great credit for."
