Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State has highlighted that Christians are killing each other in the southeastern part of the country.
Soludo, however, emphasized that the violence is not religiously motivated.
He was reacting to U.S. President Donald Trump’s designation of Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern and his threat of military action against Islamic terrorists in the North.
Speaking during a media chat over the weekend, Soludo stressed the importance of conversations about the killings, noting that the perpetrators in the Southeast bear Christian names and that the violence is not linked to religion.
Soludo called for deeper introspection and dialogue to address the issue, expressing confidence that the Nigerian government will respond robustly to safeguard the country.
According to Soludo: “As a country, America has its own right to have its own views about what is going on elsewhere, but when it comes to what it does, I am sure it must also act within the realm of its own international law.
“But there is a deeper conversation, our introspection about what goes on in the country. In this part of the world, Eastern Nigeria, it is not religious.
“People are killing themselves Christians killing Christians. The people in the bushes are Emmanuel, Peter, John, all Christian names and they have maimed and killed thousands of our youths. It has nothing to do with religion.
“In this part of the country, we are 95 percent Christians, and around the Southeast are Christians. The people in the bushes killing people bear Christian names. It is wider than the categorization of Christians and Muslims. Nigeria will overcome, and it will end in conversation.”
