There are indications that the United State of America might react once again on the State of insecurity as the US House Committee on Foreign Affairs has condemned to the recent abduction of 166 worshippers from two churches in Kajuru Local Government Area of Kaduna by some suspected terrorists.
The House committee in a post on X made it clear that President Donald Trump would not stand and watch the continued persecution and killing of Christians in Nigeria by Islamic terrorists.
The House vowed that these killings by terrorists operating in the northern part of the country will not be tolerated
“This past Sunday, Islamic terrorists in Nigeria raided churches and kidnapped more than 168 Christians.
“President Trump made it clear: We cannot stand by while such atrocities are happening in Nigeria. The United States will not tolerate the massacre of innocent Christians,” the committee noted.
Recall, having declared Nigeria a Country of Particular Concern, the US government on December 26, carried out an air strike which targeted terrorists in their suspected enclave in Sokoto State.
Weeks after the airstrike, terrorists carried out a large-scale abduction in Kajuru, with a total of 177 worshippers kidnapped from the Cherubim and Seraphim Church 1 and Cherubim and Seraphim Church 2 in Kurmin Wali Community, Kajuru LGA on 18 January, 2026.
