Christian genocide: 12 states have Sharia law, Tinubu in difficult position – US lawmaker Moore

The United States lawmaker, Riley Moore, who is leading investigations into the alleged ‘genocide of Christians’ in Nigeria, has claimed that President Bola Tinubu is in a difficult position and is trying to protect his interests.

Moore, speaking in an interview on Fox News on Sunday, stated this while reacting to Tinubu’s recent comments earlier this month that “Nigeria is a country of religious freedom and tolerance with constitutional guarantees to protect citizens of all faiths.”

“Unfortunately, that is completely false; there are states in Nigeria that have blasphemy laws, people facing the death penalty right now for blasphemy against Islam,” Moore said.

“There is a person currently right now who is held in prison for defending himself from an attack by a Muslim militant from the Fulani tribe.

“He defended himself, and he is facing the death penalty. So there is serious persecution happening in Nigeria, and I know the President Tinubu is in a difficult position and trying to protect his interests.”

Moore added on X: “@officialABAT
claims his government opposes religious persecution. But 12 states have Sharia law, and a Christian faces the death penalty for defending his farm from a Muslim Fulani militant who stabbed him repeatedly.”

DAILY POST recalls that United States President Donald Trump designated Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern a few weeks ago.

The US leader also further threatened military action against Nigeria.

Trump cited what he described as ongoing violence against Christians and the failure of the Nigerian government to protect religious minorities.

However, the Nigerian government under the leadership of Tinubu strongly denied the persecution of any religious groups in the country.

NAFDAC calls for enforcement of drug safety policy in all Rivers hospitals

The Director-General of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC, Professor Mojisola Adeyeye, has urged the Rivers State Government to ensure that all health facilities in the state fully implement the National Policy on Pharmacovigilance.

She made the call in Port Harcourt during a stakeholders’ meeting themed “Grassroots Community Sensitisation on Pharmacovigilance.”
The National Policy on Pharmacovigilance is a government guideline that ensures all medicines are closely monitored for safety and that any harmful reactions are promptly reported and addressed.

Speaking through the Director of the Pharmacovigilance Directorate, Dr Uchenna Elemuwa, the NAFDAC DG explained that the policy, created in 2012, outlines the responsibilities of health ministries, healthcare workers, and patients in ensuring the safety of medicines.

According to her, the policy requires every health facility to monitor the safety of medicines. She appealed to the state government to involve all levels of healthcare—tertiary, secondary, primary, as well as private hospitals—so that reports of adverse drug reactions can be properly documented.

Professor Adeyeye also warned about the rising rate of drug abuse among young people. She said the problem has serious consequences and advised parents to pay closer attention to their children.

On his part, the Rivers State NAFDAC coordinator, Emmanuel Onogwu, encouraged the public to “report any strange or harmful reaction noticed after using a medicine.”
