PART 2: Christians Are Attacked Because of Their Faith” Nigerian Reverend Speaks as US Troops Arrive

Nigeria has welcomed 100 US soldiers to train the West African nation's armed forces and assist with intelligence gathering in the fight against growing security threats from Islamist militants and other armed groups. The move follows concerns raised by US President Donald Trump, who has accused Nigeria of failing to protect Christian communities from extremist violence. The deployment marks further escalation in military cooperation between Abuja and Washington, coming after recent US airstrikes on militant targets. The Nigerian government strongly disputes that characterisation, insisting the violence affects both Muslims and Christians and is part of a broader security challenge. In Part 1 of this week’s episode, Peter Ndoro speaks to Rev. Ezekiel Bwede Dachomo, a pastor and human rights advocate in Nigeria’s Plateau State. He shares his experiences and discusses the impact of the violence on the Christian community, saying that Christians are attacked and targeted because of their religion. Let’s take a listen. He further laments what he describes as the systematic exclusion of Christian people from employment opportunities and key positions in government.
