Kaduna Abductions: US Urges Nigeria To Strengthen Protection For Christians The United States has called on the Nigerian government to step up efforts to protect Christian communities amid continued abductions and attacks, particularly in parts of Kaduna State. Reacting to the concerns, the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, said the Federal Government has taken deliberate and decisive actions to tackle insecurity. According to him, security agencies are carrying out intensified joint operations across affected areas to restore safety and prevent further attacks. The call by the US comes as pressure mounts on authorities to ensure the safety of vulnerable communities and bring perpetrators to justice. #Kaduna #InsecurityInNigeria #USNigeriaRelations #NationalSecurity

US Lawmaker Praises Release Of Nigerian Christian Farmer Sunday Jackson After Over 10 Years On Death Row Following Adamawa Governor’s Pardon A United States lawmaker, Rep. Riley M. Moore, has hailed the release of Sunday Jackson, a Nigerian Christian farmer who spent more than a decade on death row after killing an attacker in what supporters describe as self-defence. Jackson was freed after Adamawa State Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri granted him a pardon, ending a case that attracted sustained pressure from U.S. lawmakers and religious freedom advocates. Moore described the pardon as a major step forward for religious freedom and improving U.S.–Nigeria relations, while urging Nigerian authorities to ensure Jackson’s safety. The case has become symbolic of wider concerns over religious persecution, farmer-herder violence, and the need for justice and security reforms in Nigeria. #SundayJackson #ReligiousFreedom #USNigeriaRelations
