You do realize Leavitt was not Press Secretary during Trump 1.0 right?Hmm. Who should I believe, ditzy Leavitt or the Nigerian government? It's a tough call.
"Former presidential aide, Bashir Ahmad, has faulted some Nigerians and United States officials over Nigeria’s recent designation as a Country of Particular Concern (CPC) by the administration of US President, Donald Trump.
Naija News had earlier reported that the United States, under President Trump, redesignated Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern following allegations of genocide and persecution of Christians.
The move came amid growing claims by American lawmakers and advocacy groups that over 7,000 Christians had been killed in Nigeria this year alone, allegations the Nigerian government has strongly denied, insisting that the nation’s insecurity “targets no specific religion.”
In a post on Truth Social on Friday, Trump said Christianity in Nigeria was facing “an existential threat.”
“Thousands of Christians are being killed. Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter,” the US President said.
Reacting on his 𝕏 handle, Bashir Ahmad, who served as a Special Assistant on Digital Communications to former President Muhammadu Buhari, accused some Nigerian pastors of colluding with foreign officials to push for the designation.
“Finally, some of our own countrymen, with the help of certain U.S. officials, have landed us in this mess,” he wrote.
Ahmad warned that the development could jeopardize Nigeria’s counter-terrorism operations, given the country’s reliance on the United States for sophisticated weaponry and intelligence support.
He said, “Nigeria has almost solely relied on the United States in its fight against terrorism, purchasing the majority of our sophisticated weapons from them.
“Now, with the new sanctions, how are we supposed to effectively confront the very same terrorists committing these atrocities?”

The statement says . "As President Donald J. Trump said to President Muhammadu Buhari of Nigeria when they met in 2018..."
This means the statement is more current. How about linking to it?
He designated Nigeria a Country of Particular Concern and he voiced his concerns publicly with Nigeria's President. Biden took the Country of Particular Concern designation off of Nigeria. Now Trump is turning the pressure back up on Nigeria.

Duh. If the statement was actually from 2018 she would have said "As President Donald J. Trump said to President Muhammadu Buhari of Nigeria ..." without adding "when they met in 2018."

No, Naija News should not be regarded as unbiased in its reporting on the slaughter of Christians in Nigeria.
While the outlet covers the issue and avoids outright fabrication, its reporting consistently prioritizes official government narratives that downplay or deny the religious targeting of Christians.
Articles frequently quote ministers and spokespeople rejecting claims of "genocide" or "systematic persecution," framing the violence instead as part of broader, non-religious insecurity affecting all Nigerians.
Terms like "faulty data," "baseless," or "divisive" are commonly used to describe international reports or advocacy group findings that highlight the scale and religious motivation of the attacks.
In contrast, Naija News rarely includes survivor testimonies, independent investigations, or critiques of government inaction.
It largely omits data from credible organizations like Intersociety, Open Doors, or International Christian Concern, which document over 7,000 Christian deaths in the first eight months of 2025 alone—numbers the government disputes.
This pattern reflects a structural lean toward state-aligned messaging, common in Nigerian media where access to officials can influence coverage.
Public sentiment on platforms like X often criticizes outlets like Naija News for underreporting or sanitizing the religious dimension of the violence to avoid controversy or maintain favor with authorities.For a fuller, more balanced picture, readers should cross-reference Naija News with independent Nigerian journalism (e.g., Premium Times), international outlets (e.g., Reuters, Newsweek), and advocacy reports.
True unbiased reporting on this crisis would present diverse perspectives—including those of victims, clergy, and analysts—without defaulting to official rebuttals as the primary frame.
DUH. Read the statement AGAIN. Trump spoke with Buhari in n2018 then when he didn't get the results he wanted he continued to later turn up the pressure on Buhari by placing Nigeria on the
Country of Particular Concern list. That change is what the Press Secretary was talking about.
This week, the United States designated Nigeria a Country of Particular Concern for severe violations of religious freedom. As President Donald J. Trump said to President Muhammadu Buhari of Nigeria when they met in 2018, the United States is deeply concerned by religion-based violence in Nigeria, particularly the killing and persecution of Christians.

"Trump is dying to take military action" employs hyperbolic, anthropomorphic language that veers into mind-reading territory, a classic rhetorical device in partisan discourse to demonize opponents rather than engage with evidence.

Didja hear?
Lesbo Cullors and her "spouse", Janaya Future Khan (formerly Janaya Khan), have dissolved their joint consulting firm, Janaya and Patrisse Consulting LLC, which they formed in 2018 for racial justice and creative projects.
California business records show the dissolution was filed in early October 2025.
Concurrently, they sold a Baldwin Hills, Los Angeles home purchased in 2021 for $1.15 million; the sale closed last month for $1.35 million.
Cullors has dropped Khan's surname from some professional contexts, though they remain "married".
These actions coincide with ongoing questions about BLM's use of donations, including a $6 million property purchase in 2020 (known as "BLM Campus") that critics alleged was for personal use.
lol millionaire Marxists, letting poor black people starve like good Democrats while they do big real estate deals with donor's money. Uncle Bernie would be proud.
Should we let black kids be slaughtered. Or Arab kids be exterminated with deadly chemicals? Or should we allow Iran to have the ability to fry our kids? Should Un get away with threatening our kids?trump is dying to take military action against someone. Add Venezuela and Nigeria to the list.

The BLM Global Network Foundation is reportedly under scrutiny by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), potentially probing financial mismanagement and nonprofit compliance.
The inquiry stems from long-standing complaints about how the group handled over $90 million in 2020 donations following George Floyd's overdose death.
No charges have been filed against Cullors yet, but the timing of her business and property moves has fueled suspicion.
The disgraced organization se co-founded, now led by a smaller board including Shalomyah Bowers, faces several state-level probes (e.g., in California and Louisiana.
