Persecution of Christians continues in Nigeria

 In the last three weeks of July, 171 Christians were killed by Fulani tribesmen in Northern Nigeria. Some of the people who pulled the trigger were mere children who are being taught to kill. 

The media around the world refuses to cover these details. This insightful article, full of details, brings you up to date with happenings in the last two months. In the past four months, 620 Christians have been killed, two-thirds by Fulani tribesmen, and one third by Boko Haram.

Significant numbers are displaced. Violence affects every member of a family. Livelihoods were already damaged before the Covid-19 lockdown. The news offices of Gatestone Institute have been overwhelmed for months and yet the world's media does not even mention the ongoing deliberate slaughter of men and women, boys and girls. Christian lives are being wiped out, in some cases, whole villages. 

Since 2009, approximately 32,000 Christians have been killed in Northern Nigeria. Fuller details here:  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/16349/genocide-christians-nigeria
