Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Nigeria: Muslims murder four people and destroy 36 houses in raid on farming village

Apr 25, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

This kind of jihad attack is practically a daily occurrence in Nigeria, but the world takes little notice. World bodies are much too concerned with drafting their latest document on “Islamophobia” to note such trivialities as this.

“4 killed, 36 houses destroyed as Fulani radicals raid another village in Nigeria,” by Samuel Smith, Christian Post, April 24, 2020:

Four residents were reportedly killed and two others injured when suspected Fulani herdsmen raided a farming village in the Kaduna State of Nigeria Sunday evening.

According to reports, a group of about 100 suspected radical herdsmen burned at least 36 homes when they attacked and razed the Unguwan Magaji village in the Kamaru Chawai ward of the Kauru local government area.

Witnesses told the Christian humanitarian relief organization Stefanos Foundation that three women in the village were killed as attackers were said to have shot sporadically while residents were fleeing.

Additionally, one man who tried to flee during the attack reportedly died from cardiac arrest….

“When the attackers came to our house, they threatened to cut off my head, but I picked up my son and escaped through the back door and ran to the next village towards Kwall,” one resident, who was not named, told Stefanos Foundation….

The deceased persons have been identified by the Southern Kaduna People’s Union as Sunday David, a father of seven; Hanatu Joseph, a mother of five children; Sarah Sunday, a mother of six children; and Dije Sajay, a mother of six children….

According to Binniyat, the attackers targeted food stores and grains to make sure they burned as much food as they could.

“This is to ostensibly cause starvation, especially under this lockdown from the coronavirus,” Binniyat stated.

While advocates have complained that the Nigerian government is failing to hold perpetrators of Fulani attacks accountable, Binniyat said there is a rare opportunity now for police to investigate because they are now in possession of the deceased attacker’s phone.

“We are hereby calling on the police to take this rare lead and carry out a scrupulous forensic investigation and make their findings public,” Binniyat stated. “We shall keep a keen eye on this and we call on the general public to also show interest.”

According to the Southern Kaduna People’s Union, about 320 people have been displaced from the village and are in dire need of assistance….

According to the union, another attack occurred in November 2015 when armed herdsmen attacked the village and five others surrounded it. A total of 37 people were killed and 202 homes were razed. Additionally, the only Catholic church in the area was burned down.

Hundreds of Christians have reportedly been killed in attacks said to have been carried out by Fulani radicals this year.

The International Society for Civil Liberties & Rule of Law estimates that at least 400 people have been killed by Fulani herdsmen in 2020 alone.

As Fulani attacks have seemingly increased in severity and quantity over the last several years, the nongovernmental organization also estimates that at least 11,500 Christians have been killed since 2015 by Fulani herdsmen, Boko Haram militants and highway bandits….

The U.S. State Department in December listed Nigeria for the first time on its “special watch list” for countries that engage in or tolerate severe violations of religious freedom because of the lack of effective government response to the violence in the country….

    An average 3 to 6 Nigerians have been murdered by Muslims every day of the year for the last 20 years … do the math … this is jihad-genocide … approximately 30,000 Nigerian Christians have been murdered by Muslims in the last 20 years.

    The studied indifference of journalists and politicians around the world to the suffering of black African Christians borders on complicity in the murders and complicity in genocide.

      +1 with emphasis mortimer. We have the means but not the inclination……in other words we choose to let this continue. When will we feel their pain as our own?

      Why is Western Media deliberately ignoring this Muslim violence? Do they approve? I don’t even get a response from my Member of Parliament. Are Governments and Media scared to say anything because off their fear of Muslim violence?

      The Western World seems to be complicit with the onward march of islam. What the Hell is going on? The Visigrad Group seems to be the only people making a stand.
