The main opposition candidate in the closely contested election says the alleged coup was orchestrated by President Umaro Embalo in an attempt to cling to power

The president announced the move, which follows the U.S. decision to boycott this year’s Johannesburg event, on Truth Social.

Washington has weighed possible military engagement and economic sanctions to pressure Nigeria to do more to protect its Christian population.

U.S. envoy Massad Boulos has urged swift agreement on a humanitarian truce in Sudan.

White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly said South African President Cyril Ramaphosa was ’refusing to facilitate a smooth transition of the G20 presidency.’

On Oct. 31, Trump said he would be redesignating Nigeria as a country of particular concern, saying Christianity was facing an ‘existential threat’ there.

Trump has withdrawn U.S. participation from the G20 summit, citing alleged abuses against white farmers and criticizing South Africa’s foreign policy.

The U.S. president vowed to work toward a peace deal in the third-largest African nation.

‘Protecting Christians in Nigeria is not about taking sides or dividing people—it is about uniting humanity,’ the 42-year-old rapper said.

As of mid-October, more than 7 million people have been displaced within Sudan, according to the United Nations.

The president threatened to cut off all aid to Nigeria and suggested that ground troops and air strikes may be on the table.

The move follows months of tensions over South Africa’s land seizures, alleged human rights issues, and Pretoria’s closer alignment with China and Russia.

Arab League Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul Gheit called for urgent action to protect civilians and to end the violence.
