In this video, we break down the diplomatic tension between Nigeria and the US following President Donald Trump's announcement of airstrikes on ISIS terrorists in northwest Nigeria on Christmas Day 2025.
Nigeria's Foreign Minister Yusuf Maitama Tuggar, in a CNN interview, revealed that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu approved the joint operation only after insisting that public communications avoid any religious connotation. Tuggar emphasized that the strikes target terrorism affecting all Nigerians – Muslims, Christians, and others – and rejected framing it as protection solely for Christians, contrary to Trump's statements highlighting attacks on Christian communities.
We examine the key differences in US and Nigerian statements, the background of ongoing security cooperation, and why Nigeria views terrorism as a regional threat, not a religious conflict.
