A deadly church attack in Eruku, Nigeria, has intensified concerns over rising insecurity just days after the abduction of 25 schoolgirls in the northwest. Gunmen stormed a church during worship, fired shots, and abducted several people, prompting heightened security across Kwara State. The incident adds to US President Donald Trump’s claims of "Christian persecution" in Nigeria and a threat of possible military action. President Bola Tinubu has postponed international trips to address the escalating crisis, as the government faces pressure over the worsening security crisis.
