U.S. Congress member representing West Virginia’s 2nd District, one of the advocates of Nigeria being redesignated as ‘Country of Particular Concern,’ Riley Moore, has warned the Government of Nigeria and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu not to test the resolve of President Donald Trump over the killings in Nigeria especially Christians.
In a post on his X handle, Representative Moore said “the days of the US looking the other way are over.”
The full post reads: “To the Government of Nigeria & @officialABAT: President Trump has provided forewarning if you do not correct the current state of inaction to stop the killing of our brothers and sisters in Christ in your country.
“The days of the US looking the other way are over – it will never happen on @POTUS’ watch.
“I urge you to cooperate with us in preventing this atrocity that worsens everyday. We want your people to live in peace – all of them, especially Christians.
“The President has been clear. I would not test his resolve. Many have tried and all have failed. We will not allow the gates of hell to prevail against the faithful.”
Extolling President Trump earlier on Friday, Moore said in an X post: “Thank you @POTUS for your incredible leadership by designating Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern.
“You have always been a champion for Christians around the world, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to work with you and Chairman Cole @houseappropsgop to defend our brothers and sisters in Christ who are being slaughtered by radical Islamists in Nigeria.”
