Nigeria: Muslims murder 11 Christians, including 16-year-old girl, loot and burn village

Aug 23, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

No one cares. Wrong victims. If the perpetrators and victims were reversed, which would never happen and should never happen, this would get international attention. Commissions, studies, feature articles, government inquiries about Christian “Islamophobia.” But this? No one cares. In fact, if you report on incidents of this kind, you’re a “white supremacist.”

“Pastor, 16-Year-Old Girl among 11 Christians Killed in Kaduna State, Nigeria,” Morning Star News, August 21, 2020:

JOS, Nigeria (Morning Star News) – A 16-year-old girl, a father of nine children and a church pastor were among 11 Christians killed by Muslim Fulani herdsmen this week in southern Kaduna state, sources said.

On Tuesday (Aug. 18) in Zangon Kataf County, herdsmen attacked Unguwan Gankon village, killing a 16-year-old student, Takama Paul, and another Christian, 30-year-old Kefas Malachy Bobai, a father of three children, Luka Binniyat of the Southern Kaduna People’s Union (SOKAPU) said.

“Armed Fulani militia invaded Unguwan Gankon village in Gora Ward, Zangon Kataf LGA, and killed two persons and burned seven houses,” Binniyat said in a press statement. “Wary neighbors, however, came to the rescue, and the murderers fled.”

On Monday (Aug. 17) in Kajuru County, he said, herdsmen killed a Christian farmer and father of nine, Bulus Joseph, 48. His wife and three of his children were also attacked but survived, he said.

“Bulus Joseph was murdered gruesomely on his farm at Sabon Gida Idon, along the Kaduna-Kachia road, by armed Fulani militia,” Binniyat said. “He stood up to the killers so that his wife and three children could escape, which they did. But he paid the price with his life, as he was sub-humanly butchered by the cold-blooded murderers.”

Four Christians killed in an attack on a vehicle on Sunday, Aug. 16, (not Monday as previously reported) included a pastor with the Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA), according to SOKAPU.

The Rev. Adalchi Usman, pastor of an ECWA congregation in Unguwan Madaki village in Kajuru County, was shot dead in an ambush on him and three other Christians by Muslim Fulani herdsmen as they were traveling out of the community, Binniyat said.

Also slain were Christians Mariah Na’Allah of Unguwan Madaki village, Shekari of Unguwan Ali, originally from Anchuna village in Zangon Kataf County, and Ezekiel Maikasa of Gadanaji in Kajuru County, he said.

“Pastor Adalchi Usman, 39, and a father of two, was ambushed while in a commercial vehicle he had boarded with three others,” Binniyat said. “The killers came from the bush and just started shooting at the car. The driver of the vehicle, Danlami Dariya, was abducted and at the time of releasing this statement his whereabouts were still unknown.”

Binniyat confirmed a previous report to Morning Star News from a Bugai village area resident of a herdsmen attack on the community on Sunday (Aug. 16).

Armed Fulani militia attacked the village near Banikanwa, Kachia County, killing village head Dan’azumi Musa, 67; his mother, Kande Musa, 97; and his siblings Aniya Musa, 60, and Angelina Irmiya, 45, Binniyat said.

Six others sustained serious injuries, he said: John Dan’azumi, Danbuzu Anita, Blessing Soja, Patricia Anita, Precious Friday and Mercy Yohana.

“Part of the village was burnt after the attackers looted the village,” he said. “This is to further show that the siege on southern Kaduna communities is still ongoing. The genocide is still much on. For southern Kaduna, the past five years that Nasir Ahmad el-Rufai has been governor, it has been a grim horror tale of blood, destruction, and hopelessness which we shall never forget.”…

Nigeria ranked 12th on Open Doors’ 2020 World Watch List of countries where Christians suffer the most persecution but second in the number of Christians killed for their faith, behind Pakistan.

    “..he was sub-humanly butchered by the cold-blooded murderers”
    This is a genocide of Christians by hideous Muslims. President Trump is the only one who seems to care in the world that this is happening. We need to bring his awareness to Nigeria. BLM sure doesn’t care about these black lives.

      The confirmation bias we are witness to is staggering. The group would be more honestly named “Caucasians are brutal racists and we want vengeance.” They and their friends have one plan: shout, intimidate, steal, burn, defund the police and take drugs. If in charge they would simply
      tax rich people, plow through the money, drive the rich away, and go broke.

      Christians are being massacred all the time and nobody reports it or even turns a hair. Yet on the only occasion we get the reverse, the mosque attack in New Zealand – to be thoroughly condemned, of course – the world practically goes into melt down. Surely something is awry here?

      We are living in a “world turned upside down.”

      Unfortunately, the worst is yet to come.

    Now the world seem to be waking up to the reality of the phenomenon but still at a lose to the puzzle of its “contextual correctness” to enable a lasting solution to the conundrum.
    But, the good news is that a lasting solution is imminent and available for the transformation of the schism with a global application. Interested and wellmeaning persons / institutions can contact tmsipbct@gmail.com for further development.

    Those jihadist Muslims murdering eleven Christians is further proof of the total falseness of the bogus claim made by the propagandists for Islam to naive uninformed Westerner that “Islam is blatant and even towards Christians and Christianity.
