He noted that the reference to Christian genocide in Nigeria does not reflect the reality on ground.
Former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Kingsley Moghalu, has revealed that Boko Haram terrorists are still overrunning communities in Nigeria.
Moghalu, however, disclosed that Muslims are also being killed by this terrorist group.
He noted that the reference to Christian genocide in Nigeria does not reflect the reality on ground.
Posting on X, he wrote: “The narrative of “Christian genocide” in Nigeria is a reference to a more sophisticated reality. I am Nigerian. I know the realities of my country. I also have access to top policy-making circles in several capitals around the world.
“The bald fact is that Boko Haram is a terrorist group with avowedly fanatic religious motivations. The victims of its terror include Muslims who don’t share their extreme interpretations of Islam, and Christians.
“The victims of killings in the Middle Belt are predominantly Christians. The narratives of a struggle for resources of land and water and farmlands are not valid when whole communities are being massacred and evicted from their ancestral dwellings.
“Nothing justifies this, not even a felt need for grazing lands. The right to life and other fundamental rights are being shredded both by Boko Haram and extremist herdsmen.”
He challenged the Nigerian government to protect the lives of citizens within the country.
Moghalu said the Nigerian government should engage foreign countries interested in the reported Christian genocide in the country.
He added: “This invokes the responsibility of @NigeriaGov to protect Nigerians and Nigerian territory. Period. No excuses. With a security strategy made evident by its effectiveness, Nigeria should then engage the influential foreign countries expressing interest in this matter.”
