Nigerians are celebrating Donald Trump’s win as the 47th U.S. president, with videos surfacing online showing people singing and waving placards in support of the former U.S. President.
umo Trump emerged victorious in the 2024 presidential election, defeating Kamala Harris. However, not everyone is pleased with the celebrations, with some Nigerian social media users condemning the act as unwarranted and embarrassing.
Some have even questioned the motivations behind the celebrations, suggesting that they may be orchestrated by an organization seeking to profit from the situation. One user commented, “They should be arrested for flying the flag of another country in Nigeria,” while another stated, “It’s NGO work… they’ll give them photos and videos as evidence and later compensate them with a bag of rice”.
