Nigeria Rejects US Lawmakers' Christian Genocide Claims

The Nigerian Senate formed a 12-member committee to respond to US claims of Christian persecution amid complex violence involving jihadist groups and communal conflicts.

  • A report by the International Society for Civil Liberties and the Rule of Law and Intersociety reveals that jihadist groups in Nigeria destroy around 100 churches monthly and have attacked over 19,100 churches since 2009.
  • The report states that jihadist violence has resulted in approximately 185,000 deaths since 2009, with more than two-thirds of the victims being Christians.
  • Senator Ted Cruz has proposed the Nigeria Religious Freedom Accountability Act, aimed at imposing sanctions on officials who ignore religious persecution.
