Despite receiving billions of Dollars in military assistance, Nigeria has failed to curb k+llings or safeguard Christians — U.S. lawmaker alleges

United States lawmaker Riley Moore, who chairs President Donald Trump’s investigative committee on alleged k+llings of Christians in Nigeria, has criticised the Nigerian government for failing to justify the significant military assistance it has received from Washington.

In an interview on the Dinesh D’Souza programme, Moore said Christians in Nigeria were facing what he described as an ongoing “gen+cide,” alleging that the vi%lence has continued “under the radar” with minimal global attention.

He expressed concern that despite years of US-funded training, equipment, and security support running into billions of dollars, the Nigerian government has not prioritised the protection of Christian communities.

“My brothers and sisters in Christ are being m¥rdered for practising their faith,” he said, accusing both Nigerian authorities and the international community of neglect.

Moore warned that if the situation deteriorates further, the United States may be forced to respond. “If we don’t address this and terr+rists take hold in Nigeria, we would have to act one way or another,” he said, stressing that he preferred a cooperative approach with the Nigerian government.

He added that the “pieces are already in place” for Nigeria to tackle the vi%lence but insisted that stronger political will was needed. Moore also praised President Trump for his “decisive leadership,” saying he would soon submit a full report to him.

Trump recently redesignated Nigeria a “Country of Particular Concern,” claiming that Christians are being k+lled on a large scale and warning that the US could cut aid or consider military measures if the att@cks continue.

He directed Moore and House Appropriations Committee Chairman Tom Cole to immediately review the situation and report back. The Nigerian government has rejected the allegations, insisting there is no targeted gen+cide against Christians and noting that insecurity affects citizens across religious and ethnic lines.

Honesty some Nigerian politicians and top military officers are billionaires in dollars, forget Forbes ranking.




These guys have been looting every penny that comes into Nigeria, including those from EU, and Chinese loans



This is sad and despicable

ebukal67x:
The US lawmaker is right. The Nigerian government has failed woefully.

henrybomb:
It is you that is not smart enough.

So US government also approved meeting or negotiating with terrorist in open air without any arrest?
Or US government also made Nigeria grant amnesty to bandits or even recruit them back to the army?

Nigeria failed woefully when it comes to security as those aid were looted as usual nothing came out od it.
The US government has done its part and with the purchase of military hardware from fighter jets to drone and all I see no reason why we can eliminate banditry and terrorism once and for all.
