LIVE | Nigeria Says Spat with US Over "Christian Persecution" Resolved | Firstpost Africa | N18G

Nigeria says it has defused a high-stakes diplomatic standoff with the United States sparked by Donald Trump’s accusations of Christian persecution. Trump had threatened aid cuts and even military action, but Abuja insists diplomacy cooled tensions. Officials say ties have not weakened and point to deeper cooperation instead. The U.S. has since stepped up intelligence activity and signed a major health deal worth over five billion dollars combined. Nigeria rejects claims the violence is religious, arguing it is driven by insurgency, banditry, and criminal networks. The question now is whether this marks a real reset or a temporary truce.
