The United States Congressman, Riley Moore, has stated that Christians should be able to live in their ancestral homeland without fear of genocidal Fulani.
He made this statement in a post on X( formerly Twitter), where he described his visit to Benue and the realities of insecurity in the state.
The statement reads:
“While in Benue, I met with dozens of Christians who were driven from their homes and subjected to horrific violence and now live in IDP camps. They told harrowing stories that will remain with me for the rest of my life. One woman was forced to watch as they killed her husband and five children. She and her unborn child barely escaped.”
He added that “there are more than 600,000 Christians in IDP camps in Benue State alone. These Christians should be able to live in their ancestral homeland without fear of genocidal Fulani”.

Riley had on Monday met with His Excellency Bishop Wilfred Anagbe, Bishop Isaac Dugu, and his Royal Highness James Ioruza, traditional ruler of the Tiv people, to discuss the ongoing genocidal campaign by the Fulani in Benue State.
He further emphasised that the United States is working diligently towards a solution.
“Our brothers and sisters in Christ will no longer suffer in silence.
The United States has heard your cries, and we are working diligently toward solutions.”
