While mainstream media looks the other way, mass killings and kidnappings of Christians—especially Catholics—continue in Nigeria. Between 2015 and 2025, over 145 Catholic priests were abducted, with many massacres striking churches. Why is this tragedy underreported? Follow the money: major oil interests, global corporations, and offshore profits all tie into a story of silence and complicity.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Watchdog on Wall Street podcast explaining the news coming
out of the complex worlds of finance, economics, and politics
and the impact it we'll have on everyday Americans. Author,
investment banker, consumer advocate, analyst, and trader Chris Markowski.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Genocide in Nigeria. This has been going on for some time. Sometimes.
I was surprised, quite frankly, I was surprised to see
Bill Maher on his program bring this up last week
and actually point out that if your media sources the

(00:37):
stuff that you're reading is not telling you about this,
well you better you better wake the hell up on
paraphrasing and start start changing where you're getting your information from.
Catholics have been getting murdered, There's no other way to

(00:58):
put it, you know. Around You've got estimates anywhere between
fifty two one hundred and fifty thousand murdered just over
the past several years. Catholic priests are frequently abducted, so yeah,

(01:21):
sometimes for ransom, sometimes killed. Between twenty fifteen and twenty
twenty five, over one hundred and forty five Catholic priests
were kidnapped, with at least one murdered. Massacres in Catholic churches.
I can go on and question why why you know
the story like this, Why why is this? Why not

(01:43):
talking about this on our networks? Why are you not
seeing this in your feeds? Oil money? Maybe be straightforward
with you again, I'm doing a bit of a sub
reference movie sub reference in my head. There was a

(02:05):
great movie came out, you know, geez, I can't remember.
Maybe it was late nineteen nineties, early to I don't know.
It was with George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg's called Three Kings.
It was basically a kind of a heist caper movie
that took place in Iraq where they were going to
grab some of Saddam's gold and get out. They had

(02:27):
to do it, you know, without the military finding out.
But there was a scene in the movie where it
was like Mark Wahlberg was kidnapped by an Iraqi operative
and he's dressing him down and you know, what do
you think this war is really about? And he proceeds

(02:48):
to pour a you know, can of oil down Mark
Wahlberg's throat. Pretty accurate. Oh yeah, yeah, you know. Conservatives
upset about this at the time. It's not about oil. Bullshit, Okay,

(03:09):
major massacre, genocide, if you will, taking place of Christians
in Nigeria. We have big time interest there. Hey you
got Exon Mobiles, sold all of their their land concerns there,
but they have massive offshore investments Chevron. Chevron is heavily

(03:35):
involved in there.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
You take a look at the oil production that comes
out of the country. It's been improving, continues to go up.
People making money. The European oil companies all involved there
as well. You want to know why, I won't know
why you're not hearing about this. It's not making the

(03:59):
move the news on a regular basis. You're not seeing it.
That's why Watchdog on Wall Street dot Com
