YAOUNDÈ, Cameroon – With Nigerians sounding alarms over what some describe as a mounting “genocide” against Christians in Africa’s most populous nation, observers are also expressing disappointment that the U.S. State Department has failed to designate Nigeria a country of special concern for religious freedom violations.
Over the Christmas holidays, reports from Nigeria suggest that largely Muslim Fulani herdsmen launched a series of assaults on Christian targets in Plateau State, leaving at least 300 people dead.
