Insight Into the "World's Most Shameful" Christian Genocide

Nov 11, 2025

Give Hope to Those in Harm’s Way

The world looks away. But you refuse to.

Which is why your compassion for persecuted Christians in Nigeria matters more than ever.

Gatestone Institute just interviewed Douglas Burton — an award-winning journalist and former U.S. State Department official. The details of that interview center on what’s happening in Nigeria to our brothers and sisters in Christ, and I felt compelled to share several with you here.

Burton serves as “managing editor for about 12 freelancers who risk their lives to lift the veil on the world’s most shameful and still barely reported Christian genocide.”

He reveals what’s really going on in Nigeria:

  • “Some of our reporters have been jailed for months at a time for trumped up charges simply for telling embarrassing truths about oligarchs.”
  • “Our reporters have documented that mass kidnappings of women in Kaduna state in 2023 were in fact aimed at capturing scores of women in Southern Kaduna and selling them as sex slaves in the Fulani bandit community.”
  • “The chief reason there is so little media attention is that the Nigerian media themselves have deliberately failed to give a clear picture of who is doing the violence and why. ... The criminals would be called ‘unknown gunmen,’ or ‘herdsmen,’ or ‘hooligans.’ It appears that obvious obfuscation was in obeisance to Nigerian officials looking over the shoulders of their bosses. The official ruse has somewhat worn off in the last year since we have made a point of showcasing Nigerian mainstream media’s dishonesty. Tens of thousands of Nigerian Christians have been murdered and tortured to death for years by Fulani tribe ethnic Militia.”

The evidence is overwhelmingly CLEAR.

The situation in Nigeria is TRAGIC.

And Christians there need your help IMMEDIATELY.

Please give now — please give generously — and please follow your donation to LRI today with prayer for those suffering extreme persecution for their faith.

Thank you.
