European Parliament Condemns Nigeria's Anti-Christian Violence, 510 to 1

The Thursday vote condemned the Kawel village massacre in Plateau State and pointed squarely at Boko Haram.

  • MEPs demanded independent investigations, prosecutions, and an end to Nigeria's culture of impunity.
  • Abductions disproportionately targeting women and girls are rising, the resolution states.
  • EU's Special Envoy for Religious Freedom was ordered to prioritize Christians' worsening plight.

Why it matters: Diplomatic condemnation with no enforcement is written to satisfy consciences, not to stop machetes.
