A massive rally in support of President Trump recently took place in Nigeria in an unprecedented show of support. On Tuesday, hundreds of people took to the streets of Lagos with many of them stating the Trump administration has defended religious freedom and Christianity around the world.
The demonstrators praised President Trump for defeating the Islamic State. They noted that Nigeria needs another four years of a Trump presidency in the U.S. to defeat Boko Haram and other Islamic terrorists across the world.
“Trump’s message to Africa, to Nigeria is stop killing Christians,” said Kingsley Nwololo, a resident of Lagos. “And no other president talked, only him that gives the message, so it gives Christians hope here.”
Nigerians also said President Trump’s peacemaking efforts will defuse military tensions in Africa, which is still torn by tribal warfare and sectarian violence.
Meanwhile, a Pew Research Center poll released in January showed 58-percent of Nigerians had confidence in President Trump. Additionally, a Gallup survey found 56-percent of Nigerians approve of U.S. leadership.
