That this House notes with extreme concern reports of recent widespread Jihadist-driven attacks in Nigeria, including intelligence from 26 May 2025 of a Fulani militia meeting at Agyaragu settlement in Obi Local Government Area of Nasarawa State; further notes that the intelligence reported plans to target Christian-majority settlements including Yelewata, Okohol, Udei, Yogbo, and Uikpam in neighbouring Guma Local Government Area of Benue State, with militants allegedly incentivised by a bounty for each member of the TIV ethnic group killed; and calls on the UK Government and the Nigerian authorities to take more effective action to protect vulnerable communities and to bring to justice those responsible.
