Many had expressed different opinions regarding the controversial designation slammed on Nigeria by President Donald Trump and the accompanied threats to impose sanctions and possibly, military intervention.
However, during a parliamentary parlay on Thursday November 20th 2025, a United States Congresswoman identified as Jayapal faulted president Trump’s designation, stating that Nigeria should not be bullied.
“I just wish we would stick to that playbook rather than bully and threaten a country (Nigeria) that is extremely important to us in the region. I don’t think it’s the right way to go on Truthsocial and threaten with guns blazing.” Jayapal had remarked.
The statements, which were shared by the special adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga on his official X handle on Friday November 21st 2025, sparked massive public debate.
