African Union Denies Nigeria Genocide

On November twelfth, the African Union Commission chairperson refuted claims of genocide in northern Nigeria, contradicting former President Trumps assertions. Mahmoud Ali Youssouf emphasized that Boko Harams victims are predominantly Muslim, not Christian, and urged caution in making such statements. Human rights experts support this view, noting that Boko Haram has killed tens of thousands of people, mostly Muslims, in northeast Nigeria over the past fifteen years. Trumps threats of military action and aid cuts were met with Nigerias commitment to fighting violent extremism and protecting all citizens. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered.
