A US-based NGO, led by Judd Saul, raised an alarm about a Christmas Day killing plot targeting Christian communities in Northern Nigeria. The NGO's warning was confirmed by the Department of State Services (DSS) following intelligence reports.
Saul revealed the plan during a meeting in Washington DC, attended by prominent figures like Frank Wolf and members of the US Commission on International Religious Freedom. The intelligence gathered indicates a regrouping of terrorists near the border communities, with specific mentions of locations like Kwi, Riyom, Agatu, and Kaduna where deadly attacks have occurred in recent months.
The DSS has initiated countermeasures to address the threat.
