On their way to a caliphate in West Africa.
“BREAKING: Boko Haram Terrorists Attack Yobe Community, Kill Pastor, 13 Others; Burn Church, Houses, Cars,” Sahara Reporters, January 5, 2024:
The Islamic State-backed faction of Boko Haram, the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), formerly known as Jamā’at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da’wah wa’l-Jihād, has attacked Kwari, a town in Geidam Local Government Area of Yobe State.
Geidam is the council area of the immediate former Inspector General of Police, Usman Baba Alkali.
It is located 177 kilometres away from Damaturu, the state capital, and is about 40 kilometres away from Nigeria/Niger Republic border.
SaharaReporters learnt that the gunmen during the attack killed the pastor of the Church of Christ In Nations (COCIN), Luka Levong.
Thirteen other villagers including the church treasurer, Maina Abdullahi were also killed by the terrorists, an eyewitness said.
The source added that the gunmen burnt down the church, many houses and cars.
The attack, which occurred around 1 am on Friday was not repelled, another resident told SaharaReporters.
“14 people were killed in Geidam this morning, many houses and the church were burnt,” he said….

Isn’t this just Islam 101 from the days of Muhammad? Pick a village or clan of unbelievers and make some instant believers, pick up some loot(booty), kill the unbelieving men, take some slaves and move on. The formula is right there in important books of Islam, the Quran and Sunnah.
A great irony is these murdering followers of Islam’s Books call themselves Boko Haram as a tag, the real name being: “جماعة أهل السنة للدعوة والجهاد” which translates to, “Jamaat Ahlu Sunna for Preaching and Jihad”, meaning they follow the historical words and actions (Sunnah) of the Prophet Muhammad to promote Islam by word and conquest.
Sure enough, it’s a replay of Muhammad, this time in Nigeria.

Most Christians most likely will be silent too, unfortunately.
