Bwala links Christian genocide claims to Nigeria’s UN stance on Israel-Palestine conflict

Christian Genocide Claims in Nigeria Linked to UN Stance on Israel-Palestine Conflict

Daniel Bwala, Special Adviser to the President on Policy Communication, has suggested that recent claims of Christian genocide in Nigeria are connected to the country's diplomatic position on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Speaking to France24 TV in Paris, Bwala stated that the narrative was influenced by Nigeria's statement at the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) delivered by Vice-President Kashim Shettima.

Twenty-four hours after Nigeria condemned the inhumane treatment in Gaza and advocated for a two-state solution, this comedian, Bill Maher, started this campaign of Christian genocide.

Bwala's statement implies a direct link between Nigeria's UN stance and the subsequent claims of Christian genocide.
