The presidency on Sunday said President Bola Tinubu, is “well ahead of the orchestrated game unfolding in America”.
The Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, disclosed this in a statement, a day after US President Donald Trump threatened to carry out attacks in Nigeria in response to purported anti-Christian violence.
Trump had in a Saturday statement said the United States would immediately cut off all assistance to the African country “if the Nigerian Government continues to allow the killing of Christians.” He noted that he instructed the recently renamed Department of War to “prepare for possible action”.
But Onanuga maintained that Tinubu had taken decisive steps by implementing sweeping changes in the nation’s military leadership and setting clear expectations for them.
