“Make ready for them all that you can of force and of warhorses, so that by them you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others beside them whom you do not know.” (Qur’an 8:60)
“At Least 80 Killed as Gunmen Storm Christian Villages in Plateau State, Nigeria,” Barnabas Fund, April 13, 2022:
At least 80 people were killed and more than 60 abducted when gunmen riding motorcycles attacked predominantly Christian villages in southern Plateau State, Nigeria on Sunday 10 April.
Over 115 homes were razed in the raids on Kukawa, Kyaram, Yelwa, Dadda, Gyambawu, Dungur, Wanka, Shuwaka, Gwammadaji and Dadin Kowa villages….
Hundreds of villagers fled their burning communities. A mother and her children ran through the night for five hours to reach safety in neighbouring Bauchi State….
The attacks happened a week after suspected Fulani militants killed twelve people celebrating a cultural festival in Bassa Local Government Area of Plateau State.
Our contact said that, prior to the latest assaults on 10 April, there had been friction with militant Islamist Fulanis who had been attacking and taking over Christian communities.
“The irony here is that while the Fulani, by their nomadic lifestyle, are expected to keep moving on their migratory routes seeking pasture, it will seem that they have decided to take over Christian farming communities and settle in them,” our contact explained.
“The government has equally turned a blind eye to these atrocities.”
He said it was clear from devastating attacks in Plateau and neighbouring Kaduna state that Christians and their villages are the target for “slow extermination”.
The government, he said, had over many years given excuses and several changes of narrative to “deflect, deny and defend its complicity” in the killings of women and children in predominantly Christian villages in central Nigeria.
He asked for prayers for Christian families whose loved ones are killed or kidnapped. “Many [Christians] are being subjected to all sorts of abuses,” he added, “especially rape by the Islamist Fulani militias who use it as a weapon.”…

Ramadan is a terrorist fest. Time to ban islam globally.

The head of the “government”…a misnomer for what is there…is a fulani mozlum terrorist. that is why the government has not done anything to stop this daily slaughter. And why they will not do anything at any time to stop it or even slow it down by arresting some of the murdering mozlums.
Every day from nigeria, and add to that the uganda, sudan, congo, chad and others and the whole of Africa has turned into a killing field, greater than that in Cambodia years ago.
Jesus said that His disciples would be “hated” by the world, would be “persecuted, murdered, delivered up to the authorities” and that many doing the killing would believe…wrongly…that they were “performing a service to God.”
The only way this slaughter will end is when Jesus Christ puts an end to it and those doing the killing will be dealt Divine Justice, as will those like the ‘president’ of nigeria who is happy to accommodate his kin to be free to murder.,

“The only way this slaughter will end is when Jesus Christ puts an end to it …”
Don’t hold your breath…
Whats he waiting for…an invitation? For sure those Christians would have been praying/pleading for gods help as they were being slaughtered …..but zip help.
Over six million deaths from coronavirus….whats he waiting for?
Over 15,000 children under 5 die every day from treatable conditions….whats he waiting for?
1400 years of the pox called islam….whats he waiting for?
World war II with genocide of Jews…..whats he waiting for?
25 to 50 million deaths from 1918 influenza….whats he waiting for?
Your delusional fixation that somehow, one-day your imaginary god (magic sky daddy) will issue “divine justice” is irrational and without an ounce of evidence. And your “magic sky daddy” has zero evidence. Believing in something totally when all the evidence suggests otherwise is called insanity. TV evangelists in the US are scamming billions every year from
gullible fools with the same delusion as you. Reality not religion.

Goodluck Jonathan was pretty bad, as well–he was pretty inept–but no where near as bad as Muslim Muhammadu Buhari.

Nigeria: Muslims attack Christian villages, murder at least 80 people, tear down 115 homes
………….
Just horrifying. And the Nigerian government does nothing to protect these poor people. Given the fact that the president is Muslim himself, this should not surprise…
roberta says
Just searched it: The United States is and has been feeding, paying, and aiding in every way this shi=hole of a country.
What stupid useless leadership we have.
What murderers and thugs in this world do we not feed and support?

Trump cut aid to Nigeria for just this reason.
OLD GUY says
These attacks seem to be a daily event anymore. When will the non-islamic people figure it out, that Islam is on a quest to dominate the world? They can’t do it without invading our countries, so why allow the migration invasion to take place. If you want DIVERSITY you dam sure don’t want Muslims and islam, they are anything but diversified.
Borders are to protect the people from those who want what you have, just like the door locks on your home and Mercedes. Open borders makes about as much sense as doing away with locks.
