Security expert says Tinubu spent $150 million to halt Trump’s intervention in Nigeria.

Public affairs analyst Ladi Peter Thompson alleged that the administration of President Bola Tinubu spent over $150 million in the United States to prevent possible intervention by U.S. President Donald Trump over killings in Nigeria.

Thompson made this allegation in a video that surfaced on X on Thursday.

He was speaking about the United States' strikes on Christmas Day 2025, stating that the Nigerian government flooded the U.S. with money to deny that there was a Christian genocide.

According to him, Nigeria, which would not take care of its citizens at home, officially publicly released $10 million to a lobby firm, adding that Nigeria's money in Washington that has been sent to neutralize what US Trump was doing was almost $150 million.

“We all know that we have more than enough documentation, more than enough clout to show that there really was a Christian genocide going on, and then later on.”

“President Bola Tinubu pumped over $150 million into Washington to stop US president Donald Trump’s intervention to Nigeria,” he said.
