Trump's Christmas strike in Nigeria was a politically motivated stunt that misrepresents the actual security crisis on the ground. Both Christians and Muslims have been massacred by extremist groups, with data showing 417 Muslims killed in targeted attacks compared to 317 Christians between 2020 and 2025. This military intervention ignores the complex reality of communal violence, farmer-herder conflicts and indiscriminate terrorism that affects all Nigerians regardless of faith.
