Nigeria Reaffirms Resolve to Defeat Terrorism & Welcomes International Support Amid U.S. Threats


Abuja, Nigeria — November 6, 2025

In response to alarming comments by U.S. President Donald Trump threatening military action over alleged killings of Christians in Nigeria, the federal government has reaffirmed its determination to defeat terrorism and sought closer cooperation with international allies. Reuters+1

At a press briefing held in Abuja, the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, insisted that Nigeria’s security challenges are not a case of religious persecution but of terrorism affecting all faiths. He stressed that Nigeria remains ready to work with the U.S. and other partners, provided the country’s sovereignty is respected. Reuters+1

Meanwhile, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu reaffirmed his administration’s unwavering commitment to eliminating insurgency, redeveloping the security architecture and strengthening global ties. He declared: “We will not rest until every inch of Nigeria is safe.” nigeriastories.com+1

Analysts say the timing of the statements is critical, coming after Trump announced that the U.S. Department of Defence was preparing for “possible action” in Nigeria if the government doesn’t act swiftly. TIME+1

Nigeria’s position now combines two main thrusts:

Domestic operational escalation: Modernising forces, improving intelligence and targeting extremist networks across the Northeast, Northwest and Sahel zones. nigeriastories.com+1

Diplomatic partnership and regional cooperation: Engaging with Africa-wide and global security frameworks to build intelligence fusion, support joint operations and prevent safe havens for terrorists. Daily Post+1

Nigeria rejects the U.S. designation of the country as a “Country of Particular Concern” for religious freedom, calling the data flawed and the narrative misleading. Reuters+1

The government emphasises its willingness to accept U.S. and international assistance — but insists that any help must recognise Nigeria’s territorial integrity and sovereignty. Reuters

Security watchers believe the coming period may be tense: Nigeria must bridge internal security reform with external pressure and perception management to avoid diplomatic fallout.
