Jos Attack: Impose sanctions on Nigeria - US lawmaker writes Secretary Rubio

U.S. lawmaker Mark Harris urged Secretary of State Marco Rubio to impose sanctions on Nigeria due to escalating violence against Christians. In a letter dated April 2, 2026, he referenced recent attacks, including a massacre of 30 people during Palm Sunday in Plateau State, emphasizing that these incidents are part of a broader pattern of anti-Christian violence. Harris called on the State Department to clarify actions taken and consider sanctions if Nigeria and Syria fail to respond.
