Frank Wolf: “The committee has appropriated $12 million over the past 3 years for research on domestic radicalization.”

Let me be clear. Nigeria clearly meets the CPC standard under USCIRF, not only based on evidence that public reported but what should be reflected in the State Department's own reporting.

Our conclusion from that visit and many others, the ongoing research continues to be that the government of Nigeria is perpetrating and tolerating a systematic, ongoing, and egregious violations of freedom of religion or belief.

We are not affording them the same protections when they're clearly, clearly an attacked religious minority.

The profound disagreement USCIRF with the State Department's decision not to designate Nigeria as a country of particular concern.
