US Congress Convenes Emergency Session on Attacks in Nigeria

The US Congress has called an emergency session to address the escalating violence and persecution of Christians in Nigeria. Led by key members like Mario Diaz-Balart and Riley Moore, the session aims to assess the security situation and spread of extremism in Nigeria.

Testimonies from experts will guide potential US government actions to protect vulnerable faith communities. This session follows recent diplomatic engagements between Nigeria and the US, including the approval of a new joint work group.

The focus is on understanding the threats faced by religious minorities and shaping policy recommendations.
