Radical Islamic militias are targeting Christians for slaughter all across Africa just because of their faith. In Nigeria, more than 120 Christian kids were recently kidnapped from a Baptist school. A few were freed or escaped, but more than 80 helpless children are still being held for ransom by radical Islamic gunmen.
But this has become a way of life in Nigeria. Christian teens are abducted and forced into slavery. Christian pastors have been beheaded.
This should outrage the entire world. But too few are speaking up.
Then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo placed Nigeria on a persecution watchlist – something he credited the ACLJ with helping achieve. Now he is working with us as ACLJ Senior Counsel for Global Affairs, demanding international intervention to stop the bloodshed before it's too late.
I recently delivered a critical oral intervention to the U.N. Human Rights Council to demand protection for Nigeria's Christians. And in just four days, we are delivering 4 new written legal submissions to the U.N. about some of the worst persecuting nations – including Nigeria – demanding an end to this evil.
We can help SAVE CHRISTIAN LIVES. But we face a daunting challenge. We urgently need YOU.
Sign Our Petition: Save Dying Christians NOW.
