Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has publicly called on the Nigerian government to take decisive action against those responsible for recent violent attacks targeting Christian communities in Nigeria. Meloni emphasized the urgent need for justice and accountability to protect vulnerable citizens and restore peace in affected regions.
Speaking during a recent diplomatic engagement, Prime Minister Meloni condemned the wave of violence that has led to numerous deaths and abductions among Christians in various parts of Nigeria. She urged the Federal Government to intensify investigations, bring perpetrators to justice, and implement measures to safeguard religious freedom and human rights.
The Italian leader’s remarks come amid growing international concern over religious violence in Nigeria, which has been documented by several human rights organizations. The ongoing insecurity has destabilized communities, disrupted livelihoods, and sparked calls for stronger government intervention.
The Nigerian government, facing pressure from both domestic and international actors, reiterated its commitment to tackling terrorism and communal violence while promising to improve the protection of all citizens irrespective of faith.
Prime Minister Meloni’s statement reinforces the importance of global solidarity in confronting religious persecution and underscores the role of governments in upholding peace and justice.
