A new report claims Nigeria has funneled over $10 million to a lobbying campaign to hide a decades-long history of violence against Nigerian Christians.
Released by International Christian Concern, the report titled “Nigeria’s $10 Million Genocide Cover-Up” alleges that these lobbying efforts were designed to influence U.S. policy discussions on Nigeria and improve Nigeria’s image in regard to the increasing reports of Islamic extremist groups targeting and killing Christians, as well as the government’s failure to intercede.

The report says that “Currently, the integrity of the United States foreign policy is being compromised internally by former high-level officials who have traded in public service for lucrative foreign contracts.”
