Nigerians in the US, led by Save Nigeria Group USA, are calling for international intervention to stop the alleged genocide of Christians in Nigeria. The group has rallied at the US Capitol, urging President Donald Trump and Congress to take decisive action against perpetrators of religious violence.
The crisis has claimed over 52,000 lives, with 11 million displaced, and hundreds of churches burned. Recent attacks include the kidnapping of over 300 Christian school children at Saint Mary’s Catholic School.
The US Department of State has announced visa restrictions on individuals involved in the violence, and Congress is considering legislation to sanction Nigeria. The Trump administration has redesignated Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern, citing severe religious freedom violations.
Nigerians are divided, with some calling for international help and others warning against foreign intervention. The Nigerian government denies allegations of genocide, attributing the violence to general insecurity.
