Northern CAN and Church Leaders Reject Trump’s Claim of Ending Christian Killings

The Christian Association of Nigeria in the 19 northern states and the FCT, along with bishops and senior clergy, have dismissed the US President’s claim that American forces ended the slaughter of Christians in Nigeria. CAN Chairman Joseph Hayab says insecurity persists and thousands of Nigerians—Christians and others—are still being killed and kidnapped. He warns that Trump’s statement is based on misleading reports and could trivialise a serious crisis. Archbishop Osazee William of the Ecumenical Synods says he has seen no evidence of a successful intervention. He urges a more robust, sustained effort rather than occasional strikes for media headlines. Church leaders call for genuine, long-term support to tackle the root causes of violence and protect vulnerable communities.
