“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…” (Qur’an 8:60)
“Terrorists Kill 10 Christians in Central Nigeria,” Morning Star News, January 16, 2024:
ABUJA, Nigeria (Christian Daily International–Morning Star News) – Fulani herdsmen and other terrorists on Jan. 7 killed 10 Christians in three villages in central Nigeria, sources said.
The assailants separated into three groups and attacked Mcia, Arufu and Chembe villages in Logo County, Benue state, simultaneously at about 8:30 p.m., residents said.
“The terrorists invaded as the villagers were sleeping in their houses,” Terlumun Unande told Christian Daily International-Morning Star News in a text message. “The attackers moved from house to house, shot and killed 10 Christians, while scores were injured. Many more were displaced from the three villages as they had to flee in order to escape.”
Two other residents corroborated the account, including Joseph Anawah, who said in a text message, “In latest onslaughts against Christians in three communities of Arufu, Mchia and Chembe of Benue state, Muslim Fulani terrorists have killed 10 Christians.”
The Rev. Jonathan Adagbe, Logo Local Government Council member, confirmed the attacks.
“Armed Fulani herdsmen in collaboration with Muslim terrorists attacked three of our communities, Mchia, Arufu, and Chembe, on Sunday, 7 January,” he said, while an area Roman Catholic priest, the Rev. Michael Mchia, responded to an inquiry with the same information.
“It’s disheartening that these attacks have been ongoing without abating,” Mchia said. “In similar attacks last year, 12 Christians were killed in attacks by terrorists and herdsmen against these Christian communities.”
Terlumun Uke, another Logo County resident, said that on Dec. 26, a Christian in his village of Tse Abur Norsua also was slain.
“The armed Fulani herdsmen on 26 December, as we were celebrating Christmas, killed a Christian member of the NKST [Universal Reformed Christian Church] church by the name of Abur Terkuma,” Uke said. “He was shot and killed at Tse Abur Norsua, a village in Logo Local Government.”
Benue state has suffered similar slaughters. Fulani herdsmen and other terrorists on Oct. 29 killed six Christians in the state, following the slaughter of 10 others earlier that month. On July 16, Fulani herdsmen and other terrorists killed six Christians in Ushongo County, Benue state, the latest of 37 Christians slain over the course of three weeks in the state.
Nigeria led the world in Christians killed for their faith in 2022, with 5,014, according to Open Doors’ 2023 World Watch List (WWL) report. It also led the world in Christians abducted (4,726), sexually assaulted or harassed, forcibly married or physically or mentally abused, and it had the most homes and businesses attacked for faith-based reasons. As in the previous year, Nigeria had the second most church attacks and internally displaced people….

“the attackers moved from house to house, shot and killed 10 Christians, ”
“New Living Translation; Acts 5:42
And every day, in the Temple and from house to house, they continued to teach and preach this message: “Jesus is the Messiah.”
What a vast difference; what a difference in the way mozlums treat those who are non-mozlums and the way Christians treat those who are non-Christian.
At least one person had the courage to point out the “terrorists, and herdsmen” are mozlums.
And nearly “every day,” we can come to this site and read about the mozlem terrorists in Nigeria slaughtering Christians….and no one calls for a “ceasefire.”
No large group of Americans are marching in the streets, invading the buildings of the politicians in D.C. or anywhere, nor calling for the killing to stop. No one even calls this “oppressive” on the part of the mozlums or their mozlum-run government.
Ray Jarman says
Amen, SomeHistory.
It is a tragedy that the people in the US and elsewhere are kept in the dark regarding these horrific acts from Muslim lower than the lowest of vermin.
Maybe everyone here at JW should forward these accounts to everyone we know.

Thank you, Ray. I tell everyone I can; everyone who will listen.
The people who might bring it to light, who might even be able to exert pressure on the mozlum government creeps to bring some of it to an end….or at the very least, reduce the numbers of times it happensn, don’t care; or they actually favor it.
Ray Jarman says
Thanks for your efforts.

Islam 101, Muhammad-style, Hamas-style.
James Lincoln says
The Western world is witnessing the genocide of Christians in Nigeria.
And nobody seems to care.

James, Part of the problem is that very few have been apprised by either the press or news on television to include even New Max or Fox News.

Tragically true, Ray.
abu taleb says
Muslims pretend to be friend with non muslims, then they kill the non muslims when the non muslims are sleeping. Muhammad has given an example when one of his men did that. And muslims are supposed to copycat Muhammad’s deeds.
Goofy says
Mr Pope, are you happy?
After all the Nigerian Christians are fulfilling Scripture; Ro 8:36;
As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”
You don’t even mention the enormous sacrifices which these African Christians make every day of the week!
You are more concerned about your diplomatic relations with the leaders of a religion which is based on blasphemy of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!
Repent when you still can!

When that wee Pope fella in Rome woke up this morning and heard about this slaughter of Christians in Nigeria he asked for his Breakfast and a massage from one of the wee boys around him.

If one could be allowed to post sharia law from the book Reliance of the Traveller: Islamic sacred law to show the world what Islam is, it would educate more people yet appeasement to Islam is killing the ability to share what Islam really is and that people leads to destruction of humanity by allowing Islam free will to kill and destroy humanity that Islam deems non Islamic.
