Persecuted Christians In Nigeria Cries to US president Donald Trump for Help


‘We Are Dying, Come to Our Rescue’ — Christian Group in Northern Nigeria Cries Out to Donald Trump

By NigerDelta Voice Reporters 5th Nov 2025, Ondo 

A coalition of Christian groups in Northern Nigeria has issued a passionate plea to former U.S. President Donald Trump, urging him to intervene as violence and persecution against Christian communities continue to escalate across the region.

In an open letter released on Wednesday under the banner of the Northern Christian Solidarity Forum (NCSF), the group lamented what they described as “a systematic attempt to wipe out Christianity from Northern Nigeria.” They accused both state and federal authorities of turning a blind eye to “genocidal attacks” carried out by extremist militias and bandits.

“We are dying every day. Our villages are burnt, our churches destroyed, and our people kidnapped or killed. We are calling on Mr. Donald Trump and all lovers of freedom to come to our rescue,” the statement read.

The group said that over the past year, dozens of communities across Kaduna, Plateau, Benue, and Niger States have suffered repeated assaults, leading to mass displacements and loss of livelihoods. According to the NCSF, more than 2,000 Christians have been killed in targeted attacks since January 2025 bringing the Christian martyrdom in Nigeria to more than 52,000 Christians mostly in the North by Islamic terrorists.

They appealed to Trump — who during his presidency was outspoken about global religious freedom — to “raise his voice once more” on behalf of persecuted Christians in Nigeria.

“We remember how President Trump spoke boldly against the killing of Christians in Nigeria. We are asking him not to be silent now,” said Reverend Luka James, the forum’s spokesperson.

The Nigerian government, however, has repeatedly dismissed accusations of bias, insisting that security agencies are working tirelessly to tackle terrorism and banditry in all parts of the country regardless of religion or ethnicity.

Despite these assurances, many Christian leaders say the killings and kidnappings have continued unabated, fueling anger and desperation among affected communities.

“We have cried to our government without results,” Reverend James added. “Now, we are crying to President Trump.”
