US Vows Not To Ignore Killing Of Christians In Nigeria
The United States House Appropriations Committee says it will not ignore the killing of Christians in Nigeria.
In a post on its verified X handle on Wednesday, the committee said religious freedom remains a key priority in its National Security and Related Programmes, NSRP, bill.
It wrote, “Directed by President Donald Trump, Appropriators led an on-the-ground mission to inform a report on Christian persecution in Nigeria and guide policy recommendations. Religious freedom and atrocity response are central to our NSRP bill.”
The statement follows an on-the-ground mission to Nigeria by a delegation of US appropriators acting under the directive of President Donald Trump.
The visit was part of efforts to assess the state of religious violence and shape future congressional action.
Nigeria’s National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, confirmed on Sunday that he hosted the US delegation during what he described as ongoing security consultations between both countries.
Ribadu said the discussions built on earlier meetings in Washington and focused on counter-terrorism cooperation, regional stability and strengthening an already strategic security partnership.
