    Received by NSD/FARA Registration Unit 05/15/2020 6:30:11 PM April 29, 2020 Hon. David Perdue United States Member of Congress 455 Russell Senate Office Building Washington, DC 20510 Dear Senator Perdue, As concerned citizens, constituents, and members of the Nigerian diaspora in the United States, we write to call your attention to the volatile and violent situation in Nigeria in which minority groups and those with dissenting views, including the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), are being victimized and persecuted with impunity while the Buhari government stands silently by - and in some instances participates. Without urgent attention and the assistance of the international community, conditions will continue to deteriorate, compromising U.S. interests in the region and repeating the atrocities and bloodshed the world has witnessed far too often in this part of the globe. Over the past five years, there has been a sharp increase in criminality and spreading insecurity; widespread failure by the federal authorities to investigate and hold perpetrators accountable, even for mass killings; and a generalized break down of the rule of law. This has been exacerbated by the proliferation of small and military-grade weapons made readily available as a result of regional instability and originating from as far north as the Libyan conflict. Despite this recognized humanitarian crisis, the Nigerian government has increasingly dismissed religious and human rights concerns, and continued to perpetrate violations of its own. There are many documented incidences of violence led by state security actors, but no mechanisms by which to hold the Administration accountable. In its 2018 Nigeria Human Rights Report, the U.S.

  • Understanding the Twists and Turns of Terrorism Among Muslims in the Nigerian Experience: an Assessment
    Journal of Religion and Theology Volume 2, Issue 1, 2018, PP 1-15 Understanding the Twists and Turns of Terrorism among Muslims in the Nigerian Experience: An Assessment Ojo Joseph Rapheal Department of Religion and African Culture, Adekunle Ajasin University, P.M.B. 001, Akungba, Akoko, Ondo State, Nigeria, West Africa *Corresponding Authors: Ojo Joseph Rapheal, Department of Religion and African Culture, Adekunle Ajasin University, P.M.B. 001, Akungba, Akoko, Ondo State, Nigeria, West Africa ABSTRACT The history of humanity is replete with different acts of terrorism across ages and civilizations which takes different forms but fundamentally, they reflect man‟s inhumanity to man. Basically, different ideologies form the basis for such heinous acts. Nigeria, being a pluralistic society that is predominantly Muslims and Christians, has been faced with different forms of religious fundamentalism, extremism and terrorist attacks in the past four decades especially arising from some sects under the guise of promoting Islamic ideology for the establishment of „Islamic State‟ across the length and breadth of Nigeria. Engaging this issue through the historical, phenomenological and sociological research approaches, it was discovered that most of these acts of religious radicalism, extremism and terrorism are often hinged on religious and ideological manipulation, ignorance, poverty, absence of functional structure that promotes the operation of rule of law, thus increasing the frequency of violence and its effects. The work therefore recommended among other things the de-emphasizing of religious exclusivism, deconstruction of the age-long theologies of absolute truth claim, e.t.c. The conclusion of the work is that, dignity of humanity must take precedence over every religious contravening ideology that often leads to brutality and dehumanization of fellow human beings.
