About this Event
Nigeria is facing significant challenges to freedom of religion or belief (FoRB), particularly affecting Christian communities in the northern regions and the Middle Belt. These communities have faced serious threats, including violent attacks, abductions, and assaults on places of worship and clergy by various armed groups, including insurgents and bandits. Governance challenges at the state level, such as delayed security responses and a culture of impunity, compound these issues, undermining the protection of religious freedoms and posing risks to religious minorities. While the situation encompasses a range of complexities—impacting both Christians and Muslims—certain areas experience heightened targeting based on identity.
Presented in partnership with Voice of the Martyrs, the Evangelical Fellowship of Canada, Open Doors, and Cardus, this briefing offers space to deepen understanding of global persecution and to unite in prayer for believers facing hardship around the world.
