The resolution condemns the genocide against Christians in Nigeria and expresses gratitude to President Donald J. Trump for designating Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern. It highlights the alarming statistics of religious persecution in Nigeria, where over 50,000 Christians have been killed since 2009, more than 19,000 churches have been attacked or destroyed, and over 15 million Christians have been displaced due to their faith. The resolution emphasizes that Nigeria is one of the most dangerous countries for Christians, who face targeted attacks, discrimination, and oppression.

The resolution also notes that the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom has consistently recommended the designation of Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern since 2009, due to its systematic violations of religious freedom. It cites the introduction of a congressional resolution by New Jersey Congressman Chris Smith in March 2025, which urged this designation. The resolution concludes by asserting the importance of recognizing the persecution of Christians in Nigeria as genocide to hold the country accountable, prevent further atrocities, and seek justice for those affected.
