Dunanu has reacted over the description

of Nigeria as a disgraced country by

President Donald Trump of the United
0:11
States US saying the greatest
0:14
contribution the United States and its
0:16
allies can make at this pivotal moment
0:18
is to support the genuine democratic
0:20
emergence of visionary, credible and
0:23
people centered Nigerian leaders, not
0:25
the preservation of a kleptocratic
0:27
status quo that has entrenched poverty.
0:30
division and despair. Calling on the
0:32
international community for the urgent
0:34
need to uphold democracy and human
0:36
dignity amid President Trump's plans to
0:38
begin US military actions in Nigeria to
0:41
end the killing of Christians in
0:43
Nigeria. While reacting to the recent
0:46
remarks by President Donald Trump
0:48
portraying Nigeria as a disgraced
0:50
country, Princess Olira acknowledged the
0:53
deep governance challenges confronting
0:55
Africa's most populous nation, but
0:57
emphasized that Nigeria's struggle is
1:00
not one of Christian targeted conflict,
1:02
but one of governance, justice, and
1:04
humanity itself. The greatest
1:07
contribution the United States and its
1:09
allies can make at this pivotal moment
1:11
is to support the genuine democratic
1:13
emergence of visionary, credible and
1:16
people centered Nigerian leaders, not
1:18
the preservation of a kleptocratic
1:20
status quo that has entrenched poverty,
1:22
division and despair. True partnership
1:25
must empower integrity and merit, not
1:28
those who have rigged themselves into
1:30
power through corruption and coercion.
1:32
Princess Ola Terra called for global
1:35
collaboration to restore faith in
1:37
governance and strengthen democratic
1:39
institutions, noting that Nigeria's
1:41
stability and progress are critical not
1:43
only for its citizens, but for Africa
1:45
and the world at large. Only through
1:48
principled engagement and unwavering
1:50
support for democracy can Nigeria's
1:52
citizens rebuild their nation in peace
1:54
and dignity, free from the devastation
1:57
of renewed conflict. I look forward to
2:00
continued dialogue, progressive
2:02
cooperation and a shared vision for
2:04
humanity, she concluded. We have
2:07
reported that President Donald Trump of
2:09
the United States of America has placed
2:11
US soldiers on red alert for possible
2:14
war in Nigeria. According to President
2:16
Trump, the US Department of War should
2:19
prepare US troops for possible military
2:21
action in Nigeria if the Nigerian
2:24
government continued to allow the
2:26
killing of Christians. The US troops may
2:29
very well go into that now disgraced
2:31
country guns ablazing to completely wipe
2:34
out the Islamic terrorists who are
2:35
committing these horrible atrocities.
2:38
This President Trump issued on Saturday
2:40
evening in line with Greenwich Meridian
2:43
time after President Bola Ahmed Tonubu
2:46
personally signed a statement rejecting
2:48
Trump earlier claim on Friday that
2:50
Christians are being targeted and killed
2:52
in Nigeria. Although President Bola
2:55
Ahmed Tonubu disagreed with Trump who
2:57
had described the high level of
2:59
insecurity in Nigeria as a religious war
3:02
by Islamic terrorists against
3:04
Christians. But some Nigerians quickly
3:07
took to the comment section of President
3:09
Bola Ahmed Tonubu post on exocial media
3:13
platform and pasted a screenshot of a
3:15
tweet published by President Bola Ahmed
3:18
Tonubu on January 29th, 2014, wherein
3:22
President Bola Ahmed Tonubu apparently
3:25
had long accepted and agreed that the
3:27
insecurity in Nigeria is possibly a
3:30
religious war against Christians in the
3:32
West Africa country verbatim. In the
3:35
tweet, Tonubu said, "The slaughtering of
3:38
Christian worshippers is strongly
3:39
condemnable. It calls to question the
3:42
competence of Jonathan, then president
3:44
of Nigeria, to protect Nigerians." This
3:47
old statement by President Bola Ahmed
3:49
Tonubu indicated that President Donald
3:51
Trump of the United States of America
3:53
may not be the first person to describe
3:56
the insecurity in Nigeria as a religious
3:58
war against Christian communities in the
