CAN Challenges Presidency Over Christian Genocide Denial in Nigeria

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) disputes the Presidency's dismissal of reports on Christian genocide in Nigeria, alleging misrepresentation. The dispute arose from a meeting with President Buhari's adviser, Bola Tinubu.

CAN maintains that Christians are being targeted in various parts of Nigeria, seeking government intervention. Archbishop Okoh of CAN disagreed with the Presidency's account, emphasizing the severity of the situation.

The meeting also highlighted data from Orfa Africa showing consistent attacks on Christians in Nigeria and other African regions.
