Riley Moore: 7000 Christians Murdered In Nigeria This Year – US Lawmaker Insists by Bobloco(op): 8:15pm On Oct 26, 2025

..... on alleged genocide



Despite the counter statements from the presidency on the alleged Christian genocide in Nigeria, a member of the US Congress, Rep Riley M. Moore has insisted that about 7,000 Christians have been killed across the country this year.

In a recent interview with Fox News, the lawmaker described the alleged genocide as a tragedy saying “it has been going on for decades without anyone talking about it”.

DAILY POST reports that Rep Moore and Senator Ted Cruz recently called for the designation of Nigeria as Country of Particular Concerns, CPC over the alleged massacre of Christians in Nigeria.

But presidential media aide, Daniel Bwala, had on different occasions dismissed the claim, insisting that the security crisis in the country does not target a particular religion.

However, in his recent interview with Fox News, Rep Moore insisted that about 35 Nigerian Christians are “murdered per day”.

“7,000 Christians have been murdered in Nigeria this year. That’s 35 Christians murdered per day. It’s a tragedy that cannot be ignored any longer.

That’s why I sent a letter to @SecRubio to redesignate Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern.

“It’s time we took a stand to defend our brothers and sisters in Christ
”, he said.

The leader of Nigeria cannot talk about it because he will feel he is becoming anti-islam.

This is why Nigeria should never be one. They never agreed to live together. It will always be one religion trying to dominate the other: or one tribe trying to exterminate the other.

It’s obviously more than that..

The media only covered the ones they could cover..

A lot of Christians are being massacred everyday without media report.. It’s a pity..

There's a genocide

Anyone saying otherwise is purely lieing

God bless the USA, the United States should come to the rescue of Nigerian Christian. Especially those in northern Nigeria, Muslim terrorists in the disguise of Fulani herdsmen and bandit are slaughtering Christian communities in Benue, Plateau, Taraba, Bauchi, Kaduna, Kogi, Nasarawa states daily. May God in His infinite mercy through the USA deliver Christians in Northern Nigeria. My heart bleeds each time I remember their plights.

This is very true, there is Christian genocide going on in Nigeria even most of us Yoruba Muslims knew this

These recent cries of "genocide" seems to have an agenda attached to it, if you ask me.

Recall that the some faceless individuals and groups in the USA had wrongly predicted that Nigeria would cease to exist by 2015.

In the same sinister motive, they came up with another conspiracy theory that Nigeria would breakup by the year 2030.

As if they can't wait for the year of Nigeria's Armageddon come 2030, they are now trying to exploit religion, being a very emotive issue, to bring their devilish predictions to come to pass.


At the height of the killings in Plateau, Benue, Southern Kaduna, etc, these insidious enemies were fervently praying in their hearts for their evil predictions to come through.

Seeing that the large-scale killings in those places are gradually reducing, they are now bringing up the issue of "Christian genocide" as a bait to instigate a religious war.

The questions therefore are:

1) Who wants Nigeria to break-up?

2) Who's interest is it meant to serve?

3) Why the renewed vigour of Ted Cruz, Moore and their other agents of destabilization?

4) Do they suddenly love Nigeria more than themselves?

5) Is the break-up of Nigeria a state policy of the US Government or just the handiwork of some mischief-makers?

6) Are these evil men being sponsored by the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN)?

7) If yes, have they thought about the consequences of their actions?

These few questions would suffice in the meantime.

My candid advice to Nigerians is that they should never allow themselves to be used to dismember Nigeria because the consequences would be too great to imagine.

We all (Christians and Muslims) stand to lose in the event of a break-up.

Every country passes through one form of challenge or the other in the course of their political journey and political history, Nigeria is not an exception.

The USA fought a bitter civil war in the course of their history!

Gun control continues to pose a serious challenge and threat to the USA yet, they continue to chant USA! USA! USA! and "God bless America"!

No American is calling for the break-up of their country which they call "God's own country".


Nigerians: let's "shine our eyes"!

It’s one thing to flaunt your Muslim/muslim ticket and rig it all, it’s another thing to manage the ensuing turmoil at the global stage.

This is not a grab it and run with it matter,

Are you guys already tired of the divisive politics?,

Since when did Nigerians start speaking with one voice

Unfortunately the ethnic / divisive politics you guys have played will ensure the enemy will have willing hands to help dismember Nigeria for their gains.

Don’t mind them. It’s no longer 500,000 Christians killed, it’s now 7,000 when they saw that nobody believed their media propaganda.

Some Nigerian christians are behaving like frogs. To kill a frog, put it in a space contained with water and increase it gradually. It won’t realise it until it’s too late. The world can see religious cleansing happening regularly but some individuals still think all is well.

Just stop the unjust constant killings of christains in nigeria and make all ethnic groups politically equal any other thing from this is just prosponing the evil day. In america where most citizens are patriotic they don't operate any systemic state policy that segregated any group of people u can't dream and hope to be like america when ur country has vehemently refused to make the same sacrifice that brought america to where it is today.

Are they being massacred coz of their religion or it is a case of insecurity that is all over the country?
Do these murderers separate the Christians from other people of other religions when they Lunch attacks??

If you say cos of their religion, what about the Moslems being killed everyday in the North? Are they also being killed coz of their religion?
Re: Riley Moore: 7000 Christians Murdered In Nigeria This Year – US Lawmaker Insists by zeyt: 11:23am On Oct 27, 2025
. The epicentre of the killings in Nigeria North in particula is where Chiristians are minority. The majority of the victims are Hausa Muslim. So the ratio must be 100:1
Tunibu should take the issue of insecurty more seriously after turning a blind eyes all this time.
