Nigerian Senator Backs Trump’s Call to Action Against Terrorism

Senator Seriake Dickson is urging the Nigerian government to take immediate action against terrorism, backing U.S. President Donald Trump’s recent comments on the issue. Trump labeled Nigeria a “Country of Particular Concern” due to Christian killings, warning of potential military action if the situation doesn’t improve.

Dickson agrees that the Nigerian government should collaborate with international allies to combat terrorism, saying Trump’s statement is a “wake-up call to action”. He highlights the devastating impact of groups like Boko Haram and ISWAP, which have terrorized communities for nearly 15 years, killing thousands and displacing many more.

The senator emphasizes that places of worship, schools, and traditional rulers haven’t been spared, and government efforts haven’t been effective in tackling the menace. He backs collaborative action to eradicate terrorist groups and restore peace
