Christian Genocide in Nigeria: 3 Million Believers Under Siege as Calls for US Intervention Mount



Life is fragile and dangerous for Christians living in the northern and Middle Belt regions of Nigeria. They face violence that often leads to death, the destruction of their homes, villages, and places of worship. Ultimately, they are forced to flee from the danger, which creates mass displacement for tens of thousands.

It is a growing crisis that involves more than three million Christians who face persecution because of their faith. Islamic terror groups are behind the vicious attacks, and the Nigerian government appears to be doing very little to stop the brutality. Making matters worse, recent studies on persecution show the atrocities committed in Nigeria account for nearly 70 percent of all Christians killed globally.

  1. Genocide is terrible. I will add that this news story came right on the heels of the news that multiple governments were imposing tighter immigration policies limiting the number of Nigerians in certain countries. So, I do see this as somewhat of a campaign to increase empathy for Nigerians around the world. Media is powerful. Their government needs to do better, but their citizens need to do better as well. Time for Nigerians worlwide to rally together for their homeland.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

  2. After Hamas committed genocide in Israel and Gaza along with Al Quida Hezbollah and Iranian terror squads now I suspect send mercenary Islamic jihadists to exterminate innocent Christians in Nigeria. Thank you Mr. Trump you are a man who has given his soul and spirit to the Lord. You are a crusader of Christianity around the world. You rescued Israel from genocide please try to save innocent Christians from Islamic terrorists who without mercy enslave women and behead babies. The US needs to send the marines to liberate Nigeria now!!!

  3. Africa is the mother land. But omg some of you are not a motherly influence at all. You should be a positive influence. At least i know that in my faith to not condemn the faith of others. Because God is all knowing. He knows his many names and answer to them all. U cant kill any one for their faith and what they believe in

  4. This will happen in every country, eventually. Muslims know we are in the end times..its their religion and they wont tolerate anything else.. they are taking over every country and will unite. One world government

  5. This is sad, but why should we keep talking about the religion? Islam doesnt teach us to kill people. If a Muslim kills someone, then the problems with them, not the religion. Please don't mock and bully people from the religion just because it's the same religion these people believe in.

  6. Muslims kill buddhists, Christians, Atheists in the name of Allah all the time. And the more devout, the more they kill. European media never talks about the genecide of Chriatians in Nigeria, 1800 churches burnt to the ground. The terror of Islam is spreading, but atopping it is racist?
