Trump Determined To Stop Killing Of Christians, Says US Congressman

The United States (US) Congressman, Riley Moore, has said President Donald Trump is focused on ending the killing of Christians in Nigeria.

Moore, a member of the United States House of Representatives, said the bombardment of terrorists’ targets in Nigeria was aimed at preventing attacks on Christians.

In a post on X, he said, “We did this in coordination with the Nigerian government, which is very important to point out.

“This isn’t the United States unilaterally doing this; we are doing this in coordination with the Nigerian government to help secure their country and end the killing of Christians in Nigeria.”

Recall that the United States, on Christmas Day, launched air strikes against two terrorist enclaves in the Bauni Forest in Tangaza local government area of Sokoto State.

According to Moore, Christians in Nigeria have been attacked by terrorists on Christmas Day over the last two years. He said Trump gave the terrorists a taste of their own medicine by launching attacks against them.

Attaching a clip of his interview on Fox News, the US lawmaker said the air strikes, which were carried out in collaboration with the Nigerian government, were meant to end the killing of Christians in Nigeria.

“So, quite a bit different, the President is totally focused on this. He made that very clear in this attack, and this is a very good first step to addressing this issue.

“Obviously, President Trump has finally stood up to this, and I do want to point out something very important: over the last two Christmases, there has been a massacre of Christians in Nigeria.

“The tables have absolutely turned this year.
