US lawmaker Anna Paulina Luna has expressed concern over recent attacks and abductions in Nigeria, urging for an immediate end to the violence. She took to X, tagging US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and National Security Adviser Michael Waltz to voice her worries. Luna alleged that armed groups had targeted Christian communities in Plateau State, putting civilians in grave danger as Nigerian security forces grappled to control the situation.
According to Luna, a pastor and his church secretary were killed while en route to church, and five Christians were targeted in their vehicle. She further claimed that a civilian guard was murdered outside his residence, and a man and his son suffered critical injuries after being beaten. Luna also reported that over 100 people were abducted from Maburya, a community in Mariga Local Government Area of Niger State, where suspected bandits launched an attack on September 13.
The Niger State Police confirmed the incident, stating that the attackers took some victims away while releasing elderly people, pregnant women, and nursing mothers. Luna suggested that Truth Nigeria had issued warnings prior to the attacks.
