The Nigerian government says it would welcome American assistance in fighting armed groups as long as its territorial integrity is respected.
That's after US President Donald Trump threatened military action in the country accusing the government of failing to protect Christians there.

Kimiebi Imomotimi Ebienfa, spokesperson for Nigeria's ministry of foreign affairs, denies President Donald Trump's allegations that it's allowing the killing of Christians and tells Al Jazeera the government welcomes US help to fight armed groups but is against unilateral attacks.
