<p>Rising insecurity in Nigeria has affected all faith and non-faith communities,
including Christians. UK Government officials and I (Minister Mitchell) regularly
raise Freedom of Religion or Belief (FoRB), including the impact of insecurity on
communities and the need to bring perpetrators to justice, with the Nigerian Government.
In August 2023, the former Foreign Secretary discussed insecurity with President Tinubu
and the National Security Advisor Nuhu Ribadu. In January 2024, the British High Commissioner
raised the recent attacks in Plateau with the Nigerian National Security Adviser.
Across Nigeria, the High Commissioner and his team work closely with the authorities,
local communities and faith leaders to raise and address these issues, including through
engagement with the Nigeria Governors' Forum, National Peace Committee and National
Human Rights Commission.</p>
