According to Nigeria’s First Lady, Remi Tinubu, the country is amenable to further military and security cooperation with the United States in the fight against terrorist organizations and bandits in the country’s north.

She reportedly said that the U.S. strikes on Christmas Day were a boon to Nigeria and that she hoped additional cooperation between the two countries would be possible.

The airstrikes targeted terrorist targets in Sokoto, and Mrs. Tinubu discussed the strikes during a visit to the United States.

Along with former U.S. President Donald Trump, who had ordered the strikes, she also went to the National Prayer Breakfast.

Nigeria is still experiencing attacks that have killed many people, but the government is addressing the problems, Mrs. Tinubu said, adding that the efforts provided respite to the country.

The United States’ intervention was a very positive advance.

“Nigeria looks forward to collaboration” with the United States on matters of security. When Tinubu visited Washington, D.C., for a week, he told Fox News Digital, “We are expecting that there will be more.”

The strikes on Christmas Day were the United States’ first direct military intervention in Nigeria.

If terrorists did not stop attacks on Christians, President Trump has previously threatened to resume bombing.

The United States would not permit extremist organizations to flourish under his leadership, he reaffirmed, calling the operations a gift to the nation.
