Retired General Accuses Christian Leaders of Lobbying US for Sanctions on Nigeria

Retired General Ishola William accuses Christian religious leaders in Nigeria of pushing the United States to sanction Nigeria over attacks targeting Christians. He highlights the need for Washington to act against what is perceived as a Christian genocide in Nigeria, urging the Nigerian government to provide credible data on casualties to counter external narratives.

Gen William emphasizes that both Muslims and Christians are victims of violence in Nigeria, calling for a unified effort to stop the killings. The US Congress and religious bodies intensify advocacy for action against Nigeria over alleged persecution of Christians.
