US Lawmaker Demands Safety for Pardoned Nigerian Farmer

US Congressman Riley Moore commends Adamawa Governor for pardoning Sunday Jackson, a local farmer who killed a herder in self-defense in 2015. Jackson's case led to a national debate on self-defense rights and justice in Nigeria.

Governor Fintiri's decision to pardon Jackson followed sustained appeals from community leaders and the victim's family. Moore praises Fintiri's decision and demands that the Nigerian government ensures Jackson's safety upon his release.

The case highlights the willingness of the administration to address the persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
