For more than a decade, Nigeria has endured
one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises—millions displaced, thousands killed, and Christian communities wiped off the map. The country’s
Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), most of them
women and children, live in squalid camps, forgotten by the world. What remains unknown to most is that this was
not an inevitable tragedy—it was engineered.
Under President Barack Obama, U.S. policy deliberately weakened Nigeria, enabling Boko Haram to grow from a regional threat into
one of the deadliest terrorist groups on earth. Even as Boko Haram bombed churches, schools, and the United Nations headquarters in Abuja,
Obama’s State Department refused to classify the group as a terrorist organization for years. When Nigeria’s military begged for help,
Obama blocked arms sales, pressured allies to do the same, and left Nigeria defenseless.
The result was catastrophic: entire communities were erased, and
millions of Christians were driven into IDP camps, where many remain
more than a decade later. But the betrayal didn’t end there.
USAID—an agency meant to provide humanitarian aid—has now been revealed as a key player in funding terrorist groups in Nigeria
