Terrorism: Tinubu, Trump to meet amid heightened tension

President Bola Tinubu and President Donald Trump

President Bola Tinubu will meet with his United States counterpart, Donald Trump, amid the tension surrounding the latest warning over the reported killing of Christians in Nigeria by terrorists.

The meeting was revealed by the Special Adviser to the President on Policy Communication, Daniel Bwala, who posted the update on his X account.

Bwala stated that both presidents share an interest in the fight against insurgency, noting that Trump has assisted Nigeria through the authorisation of arms sales.

According to Bwala, Tinubu and Trump will meet either in the State House or White House.

“Both President @officialABAT and President @realDonaldTrump have shared interest in the fight against insurgency and all forms of terrorism against humanity.

“President Trump has assisted Nigeria a lot by authorizing the sale of arms to Nigeria and President Tinubu has adequately utilized the opportunity in the fight against terrorism for which we have massive results to show for it.

“As for the differences as to whether terrorists in Nigeria target only Christians or in fact all faiths and no faiths, the differences if they exist would be discussed and resolved by the two leaders when they meet in the coming days, either in State House or White House,” the social media post reads.
