A Nigerian lady has gone viral on social media after appealing to U.S. President Donald Trump, urging him to provide visas for Nigerians instead of sending troops to the country amid security concerns.
Lady Urges Trump to Avoid Military Action
In a TikTok video shared on her account @maryama_ishaq, the young woman advised President Trump that deploying American soldiers to Nigeria would be “a total waste of time.”
She stressed that the country’s security challenges are not limited to Christians alone, affecting all citizens, and warned that military intervention could have unintended consequences.
Suggests Free Visas as a Solution
The lady proposed a humanitarian alternative, asking Trump to issue visas so Nigerians living in danger could safely relocate to the United States.
She said: “USA, Mr. President, if you truly want to help us in this country, do visas for all of us. Let us come and meet you in your country. Leave our politicians alone.”
“Coming to Nigeria is a total waste of time. Security isn’t about Christians alone; it’s affecting everybody. We’re the ones who will suffer.”
“Mr. President, if you truly want to help us, I have this accent already. Just do visas for all of us. We don’t mind coming to your country, we don’t mind becoming US citizens. Coming to Nigeria is a total waste of time. If you truly want to help us, just do visas for all of us.”
Video Sparks Social Media Reactions
The TikTok clip quickly went viral, drawing thousands of views and sparking debates in the comment sections.
Her post caption read: “Because I don’t know why everyone is calm. War no be children play oo.”
