BREAKING: Tinubu to Visit U.S. Tuesday, Meet Trump’s Vice President JD Vance

President Bola Tinubu is set to visit the United States on Tuesday for high-level diplomatic meetings amid tensions over alleged persecution of Christians in Nigeria and threats of possible U.S. military action issued by President Donald Trump.

According to presidency sources, Tinubu will meet with U.S. Vice President James David Vance, who has been delegated by Trump to represent him during the visit, barring any last-minute changes.

Earlier, Tinubu’s media aide, Daniel Bwala, confirmed that both leaders were expected to meet soon, either in Abuja or Washington, to strengthen cooperation on counterterrorism and global security. Bwala noted that both Tinubu and Trump share a firm commitment to combating terrorism and protecting religious freedom, highlighting U.S. support in supplying arms to Nigeria’s security forces.

Trump recently warned that the United States could suspend aid and possibly take military action if attacks on Christians in Nigeria continue, saying his administration’s “Department of War” had been instructed to prepare for possible intervention.

In response, the Nigerian Presidency dismissed claims of a Christian genocide, reaffirming that the country’s constitution guarantees freedom of religion and equality for all faiths. President Tinubu emphasised that his administration actively engages both Christian and Muslim leaders and continues to promote peaceful coexistence nationwide.

He further described the external portrayal of Nigeria as religiously intolerant as “inaccurate,” stressing that religious tolerance remains a core national value and that his government will continue working with the United States and global partners to strengthen mutual understanding and community protection.

US war department says it is ready to act in Nigeria — official

United States Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has warned that the US is prepared to take military action over reported killings of Christians in Nigeria, echoing a similar threat from former President Donald Trump.

In a post on X on Sunday, Hegseth said the United States Department of War is preparing to intervene if Nigeria does not protect its Christian population. “The killing of innocent Christians in Nigeria, and anywhere, must end immediately,” he wrote. “The Department of War is preparing for action.

“Either the Nigerian government protects Christians, or we will target the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities,” Hegseth added.

The statement follows a post by Mr. Trump on Truth Social in which he warned the United States would “prepare for possible action” and threatened to suspend aid to Nigeria if the reported violence continues. Trump said that if the Nigerian government allows the killings to persist, “the U.S.A. will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria, and may very well go into that now disgraced country, ‘guns-a-blazing,’ to completely wipe out the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities.”

“I am hereby instructing our Department of War to prepare for possible action. If we attack, it will be fast, vicious, and sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attack our CHERISHED Christians,” he wrote.

This is quite amusing, after reportedly winning the presidential election with 97% of the votes, the Tanzanian president has been spotted fleeing the country by helicopter as protests intensify.

With protesters blocking the airport and preventing ministers from traveling, she’s taking to the skies instead.

But really, who is she leaving the chaos for? 😂

Benin Agog as City Boy Movement Welcomes Youth Minister, Set to Empower Edo Youths

By Chris Osa Uhunmwangho

Benin City was filled with excitement and vibrant displays today as the City Boy Movement rolled out the drums to welcome the Minister of Youth Development, Mr. Ayodele Olawande, to Edo State.

Leading the grand reception at the Benin Airport was the Director of the City Boy Movement and Edo State Commissioner for Education, Hon. Dr. Paddy Iyamu, who was visibly overjoyed as he danced alongside hundreds of enthusiastic supporters who gathered to celebrate the Minister’s arrival. The atmosphere was nothing short of a carnival, with music, chants, and a sea of youthful energy filling the air.

Also visibly present with Dr. Paddy Iyamu at the airport were several dignitaries, including the Edo State Commissioner for Youth, Hon. Charity Aimanyanvbo; EDSOPADEC representative, Hon. Osaze; Hon. Uwa Lawrence Okah; CEO of Play House, Mr. Osahon; Vice Chairman of Etsako East Local Government Council, Hon. Charles Dagana; and the Special Adviser on Political Affairs to the Edo State Governor, Hon. Eugene Utubor, among others. Their presence added colour and significance to the event, reflecting the unity and growing strength of the movement in Edo State.

Speaking with Chris Osa Media Group, Dr. Iyamu explained that the Minister’s visit precedes a major youth empowerment programme scheduled for tomorrow, themed “The Youth: Our Present and Our Future.” The event, organized by the City Boy Movement, aims to empower a large number of young people across Edo State.

According to the Commissioner, this initiative is part of the movement’s broader agenda to uplift different groups within society. “We have empowered women through various programmes,” he noted, “and now it’s the turn of our youths, who are the true drivers of the future. That’s why the Honourable Minister is here, to join us in making this vision a reality.”

Dr. Iyamu further disclosed that Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Grand Patron of the City Boy Movement, is also expected in Benin City to attend the event. He emphasized that the programme not only promotes youth development but also aligns with ongoing efforts to mobilize grassroots support for President Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027, while reinforcing Governor Monday Okpebholo’s commitment to delivering 2.5 million votes for the President in Edo State.

The stage is now set for what promises to be a landmark event in Edo’s youth empowerment journey.
