US lawmaker reveals those responsible for christian genocide in Nigeria
U.S. Lawmaker Blames Fulani Militants for Violence Against Christians in Nigeria
Congressman Riley Moore has pointed to Fulani militants as the primary actors in the violence against Christians in Nigeria. In a statement posted on his official Facebook page Wednesday, Moore described their actions as a form of genocide.
“Fulani militants are by far the largest perpetrators of violence against Christians in Nigeria,” Moore stated.
The lawmaker also acknowledged efforts by the Trump administration to combat terrorist groups such as Boko Haram and ISWAP in the region. However, he emphasized that further action is necessary to address the violence in Nigeria’s Middle Belt.
“The Trump administration has made historic progress against Boko Haram and ISWAP, but we must also stop the killing in the Middle Belt at the hands of the Fulani if we want to ensure our brothers and sisters in Christ are safe to live and worship without being murdered,” he added.
