Trump Vows to Restore America’s Greatness and Prioritize Citizens in Inaugural Speech
Donald Trump has officially taken the oath of office as the 47th President of the United States, marking his return to the White House for a second term after losing in 2020.
The 78-year-old Republican leader was sworn in during a ceremony at the Capitol, surrounded by former presidents, including Joe Biden.
In his inaugural address, Trump wasted no time in declaring that the decline of America was over. He pledged to put Americans first, promising to restore the nation’s greatness.
“The era of America’s decline is over,” he said, vowing to take swift action to reignite hope in the country.
Trump outlined bold plans for his administration, including a series of executive actions aimed at revitalizing the American economy and strengthening national security.
“Instead of taxing our citizens to enrich other countries, we will impose tariffs and taxes on foreign nations to enrich our own people,” Trump declared.
On immigration, Trump made it clear that his administration would take a hard stance. He promised to deport millions of illegal immigrants, particularly those with criminal records, and halt any further illegal entries into the country.
“We will begin the process of sending millions of criminal aliens back to where they came from,” he said.
Also, he assured his supporters that the “golden age” of America had begun, with the priority being the protection and prosperity of its citizens.
“From this day forward, America will flourish,” he concluded.
Nigerian news analyst, Mahmud Jega, has shared his opinion on the recent airstrike carried out by the United States in Nigeria, stating that Nigerians should not blame President Bola Tinubu for the incident.
Jega made this statement during a recent interview, where he said he does not believe many people will hold the Tinubu administration responsible, as Donald Trump had issued threats against Nigeria long before Tinubu’s administration.
“No, I don’t think many people will blame the Tinubu administration for what is happening now because President Donald Trump, when he first made the threats, it was clearly not in coordination with the Tinubu administration or the government of Nigeria,” Jega said.
It has been reported that the United States carried out an airstrike targeting ISIS in the northwest region of Nigeria. The order was reportedly given by former U.S. President Donald Trump.
“Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS terrorist elements in northwest Nigeria,” Trump said.
He added, “I have previously warned these terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was.”
The Federal Government of Nigeria has officially declared the holiday dates for the festive season.
Thursday, December 25 will be observed as Christmas Day, December 26 as Boxing Day, and Thursday, January 1 as New Year’s Day.
The declaration was made by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, Dr. Magdalene Ajani. He also added that Nigerians should celebrate the holidays in faith and pray for the nation.
