West Virginia Representative Riley Moore has characterized violence against Nigerian Christians as genocide and warned that Washington may intervene if Abuja fails to halt the bloodshed. The Republican congressman made the remarks on social media while sharing his television interview about recent attacks and kidnappings affecting Christian communities.
Moore indicated that collaboration between Nigerian authorities and American officials represents the path forward to ending what he termed a humanitarian catastrophe. He suggested that the White House stands ready to take unspecified measures should the African nation prove unable or unwilling to protect its Christian population from ongoing persecution.
