Nigeria: Muslims murder three Christians, attack a fourth with machetes

Will the Islamophobia never end?

Nigerian Christians

“Muslim Fulani Herdsmen in Nigeria Kill Three Christians, Attack Another with Machetes,” Morning Star News, June 2, 2016:

JOS, Nigeria (Morning Star News) – Muslim Fulani herdsmen killed three Christians in their home in the early hours of Tuesday (May 31) in Kaduna state, days after herdsmen attacked another area Christian with machetes, area sources said.

The armed herdsmen attacked Ninte village, Jema’a Local Government Area in the north-central state of Kaduna, at about 2 a.m. and burned a pastor’s house and those of others, a survivor told Morning Star News.

Zakka Kagoma, 40, and two other Christians yet to be identified were killed in their house where they were sleeping, said Naomi Sali of neighboring Andaha, one of hundreds of Christians from 14 villages who fled the area. A Jema’a LGA official confirmed the attack but said two persons were killed.

Sali, 45, and other residents escaped into the bushes, where she passed the rest of the night before finding her way to Jos, Plateau state to take refuge.

“There were gunshots throughout the night as we hid in the bushes,” she said. “They burned down houses, and set fire to the house of the pastor of ECWA [Evangelical Church Winning All] Church-Ninte, the Rev. Saleh Yamusa. He escaped with his family unhurt before the Fulani herdsmen burned his house.”

On May 25, she said, three Muslim Fulani herdsmen attacked a 55-year-old area Christian.

“A Christian whose name is Ango was returning from his farm at about 5 p.m. when he was ambushed and attacked by a band of three Fulani Herdsmen,” she said. “Ango was pursued by three sons of the Ardo [Fulani leader] in the area. They captured him and dragged him to the bush close to a stream, where they cut him with machetes. He was left there unconscious as they thought he was dead.”

The three assailants went back to their home, packed up their belongings and relatives and fled the area, she said. Ango, treasurer of the Men’s Fellowship of the ECWA-Zakkan Local Church Council, was discovered by a pastor of a Baptist church in Ninte village who was returning from his farm.

“Ango was in pains and crying out after he regained consciousness,” she said. “The Baptist pastor who found Ango in a pool of blood met some Christian women who were also returning from their farms and requested they rush to the village to alert others for help to take him to the hospital.”…

    Ignored and therefore unheard of by most Americans, apropos for the silent left and the ignorant so called right.

    Frequent postings from me to popular Fox news FB pages have not yet garnered any real in depth reporting and possible actionable solutions for this continued genocide on Christians in Africa (including children who are killed). Nothing…..reports only surface if Muslims drown at sea or if there is hate crime against a Muslim.
    Saudi money molds the media’s limited narrative on Islam and the grossly negligent understanding of a real threat goes largely ignored by congress.
    Declaring genocide is the only action left but the insanity of our political servants prevents even the slightest utterance against Islam.
    I’m waiting for a declaration of war but it may never happen in my life time. Maybe next year…maybe… but how many more will be killed? How many more rapes and assaults will there be in Europe. How many Sharia courts will be “legitimized” in the UK and US?

    “Muslim Fulani herdsmen killed three Christians …”

    Usually these attacks are classed as inter-tribal ‘clashes’. It’s refreshing to see the word Muslim!

    ‘The peace of Islam is a very beautiful experience. I’ve frequently read about it.’

    Since the year 2000, coincidentally, two thousand or more Nigerian Christians have been murdered by Muslims. This is no mistake: it is genocide. Thousands of Nigerian Muslims are joining churches every year. Churches plant a new congregation every week. Muslim leaders are aware of how many apostates there are. This is a war of religion and bigotry…Muslim bigotry.

    The severe brutality of Muslims never surprises me, because it is a carbon copy of the psychopathy of Mohammed in the Sira and hadiths, as well as of the Muslim invaders throughout history. A Muslim with a weapon in his hand will behave without restraint and with the utmost savagery towards the dirty kafirs.

    No world leader will condemn this act of savagery and the Pope will kiss their feet. Time is coming and things are going to change

    This disgusting piece of excrement country that that ignores Muslim violence and killing that is supported by Quebec and the rest of Eastern Canada. They are pleased to take welfare transfer money from the rest of Canada and support Saudi and Nigerian Muslim human rights violators by proudly buying their oil and even bragging about it.

    The Federal Liberal Government, with J. Trudeau as the PM, does nothing, therefore he approves. This seems to be supported by his attendance at prayers at his mosques and his gift of $200,000 of my tax money to a mosque, disguised as “infrastructure” funds.

    Violence by Muslims? That is standard operating procedure. That is what Muslims do, but they whine and complain when someone notices.
