Nigerian Presidency Denies Tinubu-US VP Meeting Rumors Over Alleged Genocide

The Nigerian Presidency refuted claims of Bola Tinubu planning a meeting with US Vice President JD Vance regarding alleged Christian genocide in Nigeria. The denial came through a statement by Temitope Ajayi, a senior special assistant to the President.

The situation arose amidst concerns over potential military action in Africa's most populous country due to reported targeting of Christians. US officials, including Pete Hegseth, have signaled readiness for action if Nigeria fails to protect its people, particularly Christians.
