Nigerian activist Aisha Yesufu has criticized Nigerians for constantly seeking “quick fixes” to national problems instead of holding their leaders accountable.

In a post shared on her verified X (formerly Twitter) handle on Sunday, Yesufu reacted to reports that former U.S. President Donald Trump had directed the U.S. Defense Department to prepare for possible military action in Nigeria if the government fails to curb the killing of Christians.

According to the BringBackOurGirls co-founder, many Nigerians are already celebrating the supposed threat, hoping that external forces will solve the country’s internal challenges.

“As usual, Nigerians will want to abdicate their responsibilities of holding government accountable because now Trump is coming to save them,” she wrote.

She further cautioned that such dependence on foreign intervention is misplaced, adding, “We are always looking for quick fixes. Just so you know, Saudi Arabia and China are also considered Countries of Particular Concern.”
