Rapper Cardi B Claims She’s Filing For Nigerian Citizenship After Trump’s Iran Strike

Here's what Cardi B said on Twitter in a super foul-mouthed post:

Nigerian official Abike Dabiri-Erewa tweeted back at Cardi B that they are willing to take her with open arms!

Fox News has more to say:

Cardi B says she’s planning to file for citizenship in Nigeria after taking a dig at President Donald Trump for his part in the increasing tensions between the U.S. and Iran.

The 27-year-old “Money” singer took to Twitter shortly after Trump ordered an airstrike that killed Iran's top general, Qassem Soleimani. The killing sparked several memes and concerns on Twitter of a conflict between the two nations, and Cardi weighed in.

“Naaaaa these memes are f---in [emojis] but s--- ain’t no joke ! Specially being from New York,” she wrote.

The star went on to directly criticize Trump for his part in making the U.S. a potential target for Iran following the death of Soleimani.

“Its sad this man is putting Americans live in danger. Dumbest move Trump did till date ...I’m filing for my Nigerian citizenship,” she concluded.

Although it’s hard to tell if the singer is serious about fleeing the U.S. for fear of an attack by Iran, a Nigerian government official responded to the tweet, noting that she is welcome in the country.
