Description

This week, President Trump threatened to send the U.S. military into Nigeria for not doing enough to protect Christians. For years, Nigeria has struggled to curtail violence across the country, from international terrorist groups to disputes between farmers and herders. But now, its leadership must face threats from both its internal adversaries and the White House. Nick Schifrin reports. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders.
