President Bola Tinubu is set to visit the United States on Tuesday, to meet with US Vice President JD Vance amid escalating tensions between the two nations.

The visit comes after US President Donald Trump threatened military action against Nigeria over alleged Christian persecution.

Tinubu’s administration has denied these claims, emphasizing Nigeria’s commitment to religious freedom and tolerance.

The talks are expected to focus on counter-terrorism cooperation, global security, and addressing misconceptions about Nigeria’s religious landscape
