Trump Announces CPC Designation for Nigeria
Source excerpt
On Friday, President Donald Trump did something Christians around the world have been urging him to do since he took office. In a message on social media, Trump acknowledged the atrocities that Christians in Nigeria face daily, saying that “Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter. I am hereby making Nigeria a “COUNTRY OF PARTICULAR CONCERN.” A Country of Particular Concern (CPC) designation could significantly improve the lives of many Christians in Nigeria by raising awareness of the ongoing persecution and exerting pressure on the Nigerian government to take action.
