In a statement shared on his official Facebook page on Sunday, Alhaji Sule Lamido described Trump’s remarks as deeply alarming and cautioned that the situation could have grave repercussions if not handled with utmost care and urgency.

“The threat of war on Nigeria from President Trump of the United States of America, under whatever guise, is very ominous. The consequences of such action cannot be imagined,” he said.
The former Minister of Foreign Affairs urged Nigerians to remain united in defense of the country’s sovereignty, regardless of religion or background.
“It is now time for all Nigerians of all creeds to unite around our sovereignty. President Tinubu, on his part, must swallow his pride and invite all our past leaders for a closed-door meeting to fully discuss and find a way around this dangerous development,” Lamido stated.

He further appealed to former Presidents and Heads of State to set aside political and personal differences and work closely with the Tinubu administration to prevent any escalation of tensions.
“Our former Presidents and Heads of State are eminently positioned to engage the USA and President Trump in an all-out quiet diplomacy, outside the media realm, to resolve whatever concerns the U.S. may have,” Alhaji Sule Lamido added.
Alhaji Sule Lamido concluded by stressing that Nigeria does not have the luxury of time and called for urgent and collective action to safeguard the nation’s stability and sovereignty.
