Just last month, we delivered a critical written submission to the U.N. highlighting the gruesome beheading of Christian Pastor Lawan Andimi by the Islamic militia Boko Haram, and the murder of two innocent Christian girls just days later by Muslim radicals.
The violence has gotten so out of hand, the United States has placed Nigeria on a Special Watch List for "severe violations of religious freedom."
And the violence is spilling over into neighboring regions. If the bloodshed continues, Africa's Christians face a very real threat of extinction.
We must take action now, before it's too late.
Today we are making an urgent oral intervention at the U.N. in Geneva demanding immediate action to quell the violence and provide essential protections and aid to Nigeria's Christians.
Our Christian brothers and sisters need our voices. As we stand before the world's leaders, go with us and demand action.
Sign Our Petition: Protect Nigeria's Dying Christians.
