Africa-Press – Nigeria. The Nigeria government has accused foreign lobbyists of fueling the narrative of a “Christian genocide” in Nigeria.
The Minister of Information and National Orientation, stated this at a press conference in Abuja, on Wednesday.
Idris said the government’s findings point to a network of external actors, particularly in the United States, deliberately promoting divisive and misleading portrayals of Nigeria’s internal security challenges.
“The Nigerian government has been able to see a correlation between some of the lobbyists operating especially in the US and their activities here in Nigeria,” he said.
Idris said while the administration recognises that insecurity has affected many communities, there is no evidence to support claims of systematic targeting of any religious group in the country.
