flag Trump labels Nigeria a religious freedom violator, sparking dispute over claims and potential sanctions.

flag Trump designated Nigeria a "Country of Particular Concern" under the International Religious Freedom Act, citing alleged severe religious freedom violations and claiming Christianity faces an "existential threat" due to violence by radical Islamist groups. flag He called on Congress to investigate and potentially impose sanctions, though Nigeria’s government disputes the claims, noting most victims of violence in the north are Muslims and that attacks stem from multiple factors, including ethnic conflict and banditry. flag The designation, which could lead to sanctions, marks a shift in U.S. policy and follows previous designations in 2020, later lifted in 2023.
