**URGENT UPDATE**  


**FORMER MUSLIM EVANGELIST MUSA BELLO ARRESTED BY NIGERIAN POLICE**


Shimba TV, New York has received distressing news regarding the arrest of ex-Muslim evangelist Musa Bello by the Nigerian police. False accusations by Muslims have led to his arrest, and reports indicate that he has suffered severe beatings while in police custody. Regrettably, his assistant has already been killed.


We urgently appeal to the United Nations to intervene in this grave injustice. This incident is a clear case of Christian persecution in Nigeria.
