17:52Now PlayingIn this episode of Ish of Arabia, I’m joined by Gia Chacón, founder of March for the Martyrs, to discuss the growing crisis facing Christians around the world — with a particular focus on Nigeria and the Middle East.
We discuss:
• What is happening to Christian communities in Nigeria
• Why violence, displacement, and intimidation are increasing
• The role of extremist groups and weak state protection
• Why this issue is often ignored or downplayed in Western media
• Whether the term “persecution” fully captures the reality on the ground
• What Western governments, churches, and ordinary people can realistically do
This conversation avoids slogans and focuses on facts, lived experience, and moral clarity. Whether you agree or disagree, this is an issue that deserves serious attention.
