Nearly 10K Nigerian Christians slaughtered in 2 years; thousands abducted or assaulted: report
Published January 11, 2025
Boko Haram militants shot Suzanne in the head as the Christian woman attended a field, murdering her father and robbing her of eyesight in an attack that exemplified the persistent violence impacting Nigerian people of faith in the last several years.
Nearly 10,000 Nigerian Christians (9,814) died at the hands of Boko Haram and other Islamic extremist groups between November 2022 and November 2024, according to the newly released 2025 Global Christian Relief Red List. The data for the Red List comes from the Violent Incidents Database maintained by GCR, a U.S.-based nonprofit monitoring Christian persecution worldwide.
Suzanne’s story, featured in the report, included a prayer for Christians in Nigeria, which advocates have warned for years have faced genocidal violence in a country marred by Islamic extremism, ethnic violence and crime.
