US Lawmaker Urges Trump to Take ‘Forceful Action’ Over Plateau Attack

A United States lawmaker has called on former President Donald Trump to take “forceful action” following the recent deadly attack in Plateau State, Nigeria, which left several residents killed and communities displaced.

The lawmaker, reacting to reports of escalating violence in Nigeria’s Middle Belt, described the incident as part of a worsening pattern of insecurity affecting civilians. He urged international attention and stronger diplomatic pressure on actors linked to recurring attacks in the region.

According to the statement, the situation in Plateau reflects broader instability that has persisted despite ongoing military operations and peace efforts. The lawmaker argued that global leaders, especially the United States, should not remain passive in the face of repeated mass-casualty incidents.

The call for action comes amid growing concern over rural violence in Nigeria, where clashes involving armed groups and local communities have continued to claim lives and displace families. Security analysts say the Plateau attack adds to a long list of unresolved security challenges in the country.

Neither the Nigerian government nor Trump’s representatives have issued a formal response to the lawmaker’s remarks at the time of reporting.
