Article Description

Trump reinstated his designation of Nigeria as a “Country of Particular Concern” (CPC) in response to increased scrutiny of the government’s failure to protect the Christians within its borders. Despite the country’s constitution officially prohibiting the adoption of an official religion, it does permit the use of Sharia and blasphemy laws. Citizens are not supposed to be compelled to abide by them, but that hasn’t stopped local and state governments from using them to imprison, beat, and even stone those who fail to abide by their codes of conduct. However, Nigeria’s Christians are not the only ones to suffer such treatment, and the reality of the situation is more complex than the headlines make it seem.
