The United States of America (U.S), Defence Secretary, Pete Hegseth has said that his country would work aggressively to bring to an end the persecution of Christians in Nigeria.

According to him, “Yesterday, I met with Nigeria’s National Security Advisor and his team to discuss the horrific violence against Christians in their country,” Hegseth tweeted.
