“Herdsmen Kill Seven Christians in Central Nigeria,” Morning Star News, March 28, 2024:
ABUJA, Nigeria (Christian Daily International–Morning Star News) – Fulani herdsmen accompanied by other terrorists on March 19 and 20 killed seven Christians in attacks on villages in central Nigeria, sources said.
In Benue state’s Logo County, the assailants slaughtered seven Christians in the Yongia Ukambie Tiev and Ukembrergya-Tswarev communities, said the Rev. Jonathan Adagbe, chairman of the Logo Local Government Council.
“The attacks were carried out by the herdsmen who were accompanied by a group of terrorists,” Pastor Adagbe told Christian Daily International-Morning Star News. “These herdsmen act brazenly and attack Christians at will and with impunity. No one dares challenge their terrorist acts; not even the military or other security agents are able to curtail their activities against Christian communities.”
The pastor said he visited the areas for assessment in order to file reports with the Benue state government and saw armed, Muslim Fulani herdsmen still moving freely in the communities they had attacked.
Community leader Joseph Anawah said the terrorists attacked without any resistance from Nigeria’s military or security agents.
“The herdsmen, whom we believe are working alongside terrorists, attacked our villages for two days, beginning on Tuesday, 19 March,” Anawah told Christian Daily International-Morning Star News in a text message. “The terrorists started attacking our villages at about 4 p.m. and continued on Wednesday, 20 March. So far, we know that seven Christians were killed during the invasion on our villages.”
Nigeria remained the deadliest place in the world to follow Christ, with 4,118 people killed for their faith from Oct. 1, 2022 to Sept. 30, 2023, according to Open Doors’ 2024 World Watch List (WWL) report. More kidnappings of Christians than in any other country also took place in Nigeria, with 3,300.
Nigeria was also the third highest country in number of attacks on churches and other Christian buildings such as hospitals, schools, and cemeteries, with 750, according to the report….

Time for the world to start taking action in the final solution of these barbarians who have been trouble since 600 AD with mohaMAD.

Sure would be nice if Christians started to protect themselves.

Those fulani POS should go and try it in Texas where real men and women live and everyone carries.

It’s clear that Nigerian Christians need weapons to fight back. Even some M-16s and some grenade launchers – with plenty of ammo – would be a big help.
Can’t Western countries supply them – considering all the billions that have been shoveled into Ukraine?
somehistory says
The nigerian government received those things from the U.S. government. Lots of weapons, helicopters, etc.
And, its military use them against Christians, along with the *civilian* mozlums.
If Nigerian Christians were corrupt, and were not being slaughtered by mozlums, but were fighting Russians, they might get a few rounds. But only if Ukraine received another bundle of cash.
James Lincoln says
Yes, all true, somehistory.
What I was getting at, was a way to “covertly” supply weapons directly to Christians – without going through the corrupt Nigeria government.

The pendulum always swings both ways, the backswing is going to be bloody. When nice people turn nasty, things ramp up quickly.
OLD GUY says
Just another day of islam murdering Christians nothing to see here or report about. Just disposing of Christians like killing ants.
