The United States lawmaker, Riley Moore, leading investigations into the alleged ‘killing of Christians’ in Nigeria has assured to send a report to President Donald Trump soon.
Moore was reacting to Trump’s latest speech where the US
president insisted that Christians were allegedly being killed in Nigeria and
an action needed to be taken.
Trump had asked Congressman Moore together with Chairman Tom
Cole and the House Appropriations Committee to immediately look into the
controversial persecution and killing of Christians and report back to him.
“Thank you, President Trump, for your incredible leadership
in defending persecuted Christians, especially in Nigeria. Your bold and
decisive action to protect our brothers and sisters in Christ will save
thousands of lives. I am on it and will have more for you soon,” Moore wrote.
Recall that Trump had earlier designated Nigeria
as a country of particular concern, further threatening military action against
Nigeria.
The US President cited what he described as ongoing violence
against Christians and failure of the government to protect religious
minorities.
However, the Nigerian government strongly denied persecution
of any religious groups in Nigeria.
