<p>We are concerned about growing levels of intercommunal violence between farming
and herder communities in Nigeria, and regularly raise these concerns with the Nigerian
Government at the highest levels. The Foreign Secretary met with Nigerian faith leaders,
both Muslim and Christian during his recent visit to Nigeria, to discuss how the UK
can support their work to promote interfaith relationships and long-term peace. Our
High Commission in Abuja is engaging closely with international partners, the Nigerian
Government, faith and community leaders, state governments and the National Economic
Council to develop measures which address the underlying causes of the conflict, including
the recently-announced bi-partisan National Livestock Transformation Plan.</p>
