“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)
Note that the delayed response of security authorities is blamed on the lack of telecommunications coverage. So what accounts for the delays all the other times? Could the Muslim-dominated government of Nigeria not care if Christians are killed? Will Trump’s interest in this genocide extend beyond his single threat and token airstrike?
“Easter Sunday Massacre: Terrorists Attack Two Churches In Kaduna, Kill At Least Seven Worshippers, Abduct Several,” Sahara Reporters, April 5, 2026:
The bloody attack, which occurred during the early hours of the morning, targeted congregants at the First ECWA Church and St. Augustine Catholic Church while they were celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Tragedy hit the Ariko community in Kachia Local Government Area, Kaduna State, on Easter Sunday when terrorists carried out coordinated attacks on two Christian worship centers, killing at least seven people and abducting several others.
The bloody attack, which occurred during the early hours of the morning, targeted congregants at the First ECWA Church and St. Augustine Catholic Church while they were celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ….
Bawa noted that sources said that at least seven people have been verified dead.
“I am currently on my way to the community to ascertain the exact number of casualties. Some sources said seven persons were killed, while others claimed eight. I will provide an update once details are confirmed,” Bawa said.
Residents lamented that the assailants operated for a prolonged period without any resistance from security agencies. Bawa attributed the delayed response to the chronic lack of telecommunications coverage in the rural district, which prevented locals from calling for help as the slaughter unfolded….

Who is Bawa ?
And the “telecommunications” are probably excellent for the muzzie terrorists who engaged in the slaughter. Planning, meeting, murdering, and escaping any who might (not ever likely) be chasing them.

The Councillor representing Awon Ward, Mark Bawa, confirmed the harrowing incident to the press, stating that the attackers arrived in large numbers and laid siege to the churches.
“The attackers came in large numbers. They surrounded the area and began shooting sporadically at worshippers. Several people were killed, and many others were taken away into the bush,” Bawa said as quoted by The PUNCH.
Bawa noted that sources said that at least seven people have been verified dead.

Thank you, g. I just expected it in the body of the article above. It was not so important that I need to read another on the same thing.
He was making excuses anyway.

You didn’t know who he was from the JW post’s, didn’t check the article to find out, and then claim he “was making excuses anyway”.
Yeh.

This is the real genocide against the African people, not the act of Israel against the Palestinians, because the African jihadists are targetting the Christians continuously. They don’t pick a specific target like IDF’s picking the Hamas thugs.
But there is hardly any news about this genocide because the evil people in the west are siding with the muslims who are evil too. LIke,

And the Pope responds how?
Christina McIntosh says
The Christian communities in Nigeria might do well to invest in lots of large well-trained guard dogs and community watchmen and patrols, and study up on the self-defence strategies of the first kibbutzim in pre-state Israel. If the attacks were motivated by simple banditry, would not this be sensible?? Treat them as banditry/ criminality and train every able-bodied person in the community in community self-defence! Harden up the boundaries so that the attackers cannot just sashay in unopposed. Find ways of sending signals to one another. Amateur short-wave radio?
NO majority-Christian country in the western world would accept that in the name of Christian pacifism the police should not act if a serial killer or serial rapist were on the loose, or if bikie gangs began going from one small country town to another bashing, robbing, raping, pillaging and setting fire to things! So why should Christian villagers be required to submit to utter lawlessness (which in this case, of course, is … Jihad aimed at destroying them completely).
If the Nigerian police and army are not fit for purpose, if they refuse (because infiltrated by Muslims) to use legitimate force in order to restrain evil then the local Christian communities will just have to organise themselves to uphold the on-paper laws against robbery, rape, kidnapping and murder!
I do not think that such action is unwarranted.
The only reason that an Ethiopian Christian church and community still exists is not just because their heartland is a natural fortress but because they chose to defend that fortress, heroically and vigorously, against ceaseless Mohammedan assault.

Good post, Christina. And good to see you posting here.
somehistory says
they likely don’t have the money to spend on guard dogs and security people. Those things don’t come cheap and the people in those little villages have very little actual money
The government, police and military are muzzie….not just infiltrated.
And the little villages are not like cities in the Americas or Europe. There is no way to “harden the boundaries
Some years ago, a man from one of the African nations worked where I did. He told me that he knew English because the people in his country have lots of different languages, so they all learn English in order to communicate. But this talking is face to face..”
the muzzie murderers take full advantage of the poor situations in nigeria. We don’t hear of their murderous doings so much in the capital; they are all in the little villages where there are none of the things which would discourage the slaughter..

Some claim this will not stop until Christ returns “in a flaming fire” to execute Justice and bring vengeance.
“Jesus promised that those who persecute His children, will pay the ultimate price.”
While the fantasy continues in irrational minds, it is the victims today, in real time, in the real world who are still paying the gruesome ultimate price.
