We will not remain silent when our Christian brothers and sisters are raped and plundered in any country in the world.”“While others ignore you or avoid you and your plight, the patriotic men and women of the United Kingdom will not,” Robinson wrote on X (formerly Twitter).“You are our brothers and sisters in Christ.”Anglican Bishop Jwan Zhumbes of the Diocese of Bukuru in Nigeria spoke at the meeting and talked about the situation faced by Christian communities in the country’s central belt.“Primarily Christian communities are being attacked every day. People are being killed. Churches are being razed to the ground. Entire communities are being looted,” Zumbes said.He claimed that the group included Boko HaramISWAP militants and Fulani armed groups have caused years of insecurity, kidnappings and attacks against Christians in some areas.“Christian persecution is a reality in Nigeria,” Jumbes said.The bishop also claimed that kidnappers had previously tried to abduct him from his home in Nigeria.Christian advocacy groups have repeatedly highlighted concerns about religious violence and insecurity in Nigeria.
