US President Donald Trump said the United States could take decisive action in Nigeria over attacks on Christians. He stated, ?The United States cannot stand by while such atrocities are happening in Nigeria and numerous other countries. It?s not only Nigeria, it?s all over. We stand ready, willing, and able to save our great Christian population around the world.?

Trump warned, ?This is not going to happen. The killing of Christians is not going to happen. We?re going to do things to Nigeria that Nigeria is not going to be happy about and may very well go into that now disgraced country, guns-ablazing, to completely wipe out the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible, horrible atrocities.?

He further instructed, ?I?m 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. Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria.?

Highlighting the scale of the crisis, Trump said, ?Thousands and thousands of Christians are being killed. Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter. I am hereby making Nigeria a country of particular concern.? He added, ?That?s a legal definition. When the Christians or any such group is slaughtered, like is happening in Nigeria, 3,100 versus 4,476 worldwide. What horrible numbers.?

Trump concluded by calling on US lawmakers for urgent action: ?Something has to be done. I am asking Congressman Riley Moore, together with Chairman Tom Cole and the House Appropriations Committee, to immediately look into this matter and to report back to me. And I mean like immediately.? (ARISE NEWS)
