In response to the alarming rise in terrorist attacks across Nigeria, particularly in the Northern region, the Concerned Christian Youth Forum has announced plans for a peaceful protest. According to a statement released on Sunday by the group’s convener, James Adama, the protest is scheduled for Wednesday, May 21, 2025, at the Unity Fountain in Abuja.
The protest, which is expected to draw Christian youths from across the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Adama emphasized that the event is a call to action, urging the Federal Government to take decisive steps in addressing the ongoing violence and bloodshed inthe country. The forum is demanding justice for victims and an end to the senseless killings.
To ensure broad participation, the organizers have arranged free buses—decorated with banners promoting the protest—that will pick up participants from various locations across the FCT, including all six area councils.
“We are calling on all Christian youths in the FCT to join us in this peaceful protest,” Adama stated. “This is our stand against the rampant killings and a message to the Government that urgent action is needed to safeguard the lives of innocent Nigerians.”
The protest is expected to be a major demonstration of solidarity among the country’s Christian youth, united in their demand for peace and justice.
