President Bola Tinubu’s special adviser on media and policy communication, Daniel Bwala, has stated that the president has been engaging with Nigerians daily since the US President Donald Trump’s allegations of Christian genocide in Nigeria. Bwala made this statement during an interview on Arise Television’s ‘Prime Time’ program.

The comment comes after Trump designated Nigeria as a ‘Country of Particular Concern’ due to alleged Christian genocide, and threatened possible military action if the killings continue. In response to a question about President Tinubu’s silence on the issue, Bwala argued that the president’s daily tweets and statements constitute a form of communication with the public.

According to Bwala, President Tinubu’s use of social media platforms, such as Twitter, is an effective means of conveying his message to Nigerians. He emphasized that issuing statements and using social media are both valid forms of communication, and that President Tinubu has been speaking to Nigerians every day through these channels.

The US President’s allegations of Christian genocide in Nigeria have sparked significant concern and debate. Trump’s statement has been met with a range of reactions, with some calling for increased international pressure on the Nigerian government to address the issue, while others have questioned the accuracy of the allegations.

In the face of these developments, the Nigerian government’s response has been closely watched. Bwala’s statement suggests that President Tinubu has been actively engaging with the public on the issue, albeit through social media and statements rather than a direct address. As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how the Nigerian government will respond to the US President’s allegations and the potential implications for the country’s international relations.
