United States House Committees on Appropriations and Foreign Affairs, has officially submitted to the white House a report detailing their findings and recommendations on addressing the alleged persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
Recall that President Donald Trump, after redesignated Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern, mandated Congressman Riley Moore and Appropriations Committee Chairman Tom Cole to lead a comprehensive investigation into the alleged persecution of Christian communities by terrorists and the security challenges plaguing Nigeria.
Moore confirmed the submission of the report on his X handle.
The findings of the report stem from interviews with expert witnesses, a hearing and roundtable, two on-the ground assessments through bipartisan congressional delegations to Nigeria, and close partnership with Trump administration.
Moore stated that the US team now has a clear picture of the threats in Nigeria and the alleged persecution Christians face.
He said it was expedient for Nigerian government to seize the opportunity to deepen and strengthen its relationship with the United States.
