Nigeria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, has addressed claims about violence against Christians in Nigeria. During an appearance on the Piers Morgan Show on Tuesday, Tuggar revealed that over the past five years, only 177 Christians have been killed in the country. He also stated that 102 churches have been attacked during this period.
Tuggar’s comments came as he challenged reports suggesting that Christians in Nigeria are being targeted for violence. Many international reports and human rights groups have accused Nigeria of widespread persecution of Christians, but the foreign minister’s statement appears to dispute or downplay those claims.
This response has sparked reactions, as many believe the situation might be more serious than what is being officially acknowledged.
