Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, spoke on Donald Trump’s threat to Nigeria regarding taking care of the Christian genocide.

The minister appeared as a guest on a TV program and spoke on the current situation, stating that politics has been taken too far.

The minister questioned the claims made, saying “It is an indictment that a government I am serving, anybody will allege that that government is supporting genocide, killing of Christians and I am still in that government.

This is politics taken too far. The Inspector General of Police is a Christian, the Director General of the Department of State Services is a Christian, the Chief of Defence (Staff) is a Christian.

Tell me how any right-thinking person will think that we will sit in a government and support the killing of our own people?”
