Nigeria Named Among Seven Terrible Places For Christians by Akbee(m): 8:12pm On Jun 27, 2014 |
Due to the gory activities of terrorist group, Boko Haram, CNN has named Nigeria among the 7 Terrible Places For Christians. The survey was carried out by Mariano Castillo and Dana Ford of CNN, among which the 7 countries listed include, North Korea, Sudan, Eritrea, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Somalia, and Iraq. According to the report, Nigeria made the list as a result of Boko Haram's 2009 threat to purge the country of all Christians, after which the sect has made the country ungovernable since then. Many lives have also been lost as a result of the insurgencies. "Nigeria is split between a majority Muslim north and a mostly Christian south. Boko Haram, an Islamic extremist group, vowed in 2009 to rid the nation's north of all non-Muslim influence, including Christians, according to The Voice of the Martyrs, another group that tracks the persecution of Christians. More than 3,000 people have been killed since then, The Voice of the Martyrs reports. Boko Haram translates as "Western education is a sin" in the Hausa language. The militant group says its aim is to impose a stricter enforcement of Sharia law across Nigeria, Africa's most populous nation. Boko Haram's attacks have intensified in recent years and have included the kidnapping of more than 200 school girls", CNN writes.
