Anti-Christian Jihad Massacre Rages on in Nigeria

The horrific decade-long Muslim persecution of Christians in Nigeria continues to be destructive and bloody. The most recent killings left 37 Christians dead in Benue state.

Multiple African countries, including Nigeria, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Uganda suffer from regular or even constant radical Islamic terrorism. As of 2021, Nigerians made up eight out of every ten Christians killed for their faith globally.

”There hasn’t been much news of the jihad in Nigeria lately, but this is not because things have calmed down. The Nigerian media, apparently under pressure from the government, has begun to imitate the Western media. Instead of noting that these attacks were carried out by ‘Fulani herdsmen’ or ‘Boko Haram,’ which would indicate that they were jihad attacks, Nigerian media outlets have begun referring to the attackers solely as ‘bandits’ or ‘gunmen,’ without giving any hint of their ideology or goals.”
