Honestly speaking,there's no Nigeria again... Are we supposed to wait for sanctions from America before we set those maniacs parading themselves as Politicians on fire ...This is definitely Not d Nigeria we grew up to know between late 70s n late 80s..The truth of d matter is nobody can say precisely which religion bears d brunt of killings in d hands of these cowards animals... |

God1000:They're just senseless and stupid listening to the story from people like Kukah who owns a massive church in a 98% Muslim dominated state of Sokoto, but fabricate lies on persecution of Christians in the north. They won't allow muslims own such a church where they're in the majority. Boko Haram, Lakurawa, Bandits, Yan shara, kidnappers, etc, have killed muslims 100x than they have killed Christians, but people being killed don't matter because they're not Christians, but when 2 Christians die, you'll hear it in their newspaper and television and that's what these congress guys are talking about. They don't know more what is in their country even though they claim to know everything. An informed person will make informed decision. I live in a Muslim dominated area, and 2 very big churches are here and we don't rest from their activities - especially that deeper life church that always play the telecast of Kumuyi, but no one has ever complained, but some fools who don't know what happens here are saying rubbish. |

There are clearcut boundaries. The old Eastern region is 99.9% Christians. They are at the receiving end of wickedness from rest of Nigeria. Separating the old Eastern region from rest of Nigeria shall solve the killings in Nigeria. |

your opinion is limited to your knowledge. the reports are fairly correct. I had the opportunity to join an evangelism outreach in the north for one year and i know some of the experiences. incase you don't know, most of the locations where there is massive killing are particularly Christian dominated areas. do you know that Christians particularly in remote northern state are judge by sharia? the Christians in the north are under daily persecution God1000: |

God1000:You're correct that all communities have experienced violence in Nigeria. Yeah, overall, what's going on in Nigeria transcends religion. But it's also correct that you can't divorce religious division from what goes in places like Kaduna. I don't agree with Congress on this one, but some of our people have handed them the rope to hang us. |

Thewrath:How are they persecuted? Who persecutes them? Can you refer them to the video of Muslims killed in jos in sallah day and their meat being consumed on camera? I don't think any Christian has experienced that. Persecution from who? |

Religious war will not favour anyone in this country but if some dumb people allow themselves to be used by founders and sponsors of boko haram....then we shall see |

AntlisIaam:The ones killed in Jos alone on that Sallah day are more than all the Christians killed in that instance. Bring names of those killed and the places they were killed. You think Muslims don't get killed for blasphemy. Christians are largely loud and cry out, reason your cries are heard - you have the media. You don't know how many Muslims get killed because of their creed or sectarian belief. |

God1000:Brother it is wrong to assert that they is no persecution of Christians in Nigeria especially in the North. There is persecution, even it might not be full blown or an openly declared persecution. What will you referred the killing of Deborah in Sokoto as. And there are many other similar cases like that. In your state Benue, we have witnessed especially in the last administration of Buhari the reckless, needless killing of Benue people who are predominantly Christians. I don't know how the sanctions will be done but they need to call the North to order to be more tolerant and our leaders to also safeguard the lives of the people who they are elected to protect |

God1000:Direct your anger to Buhari and Tinubu who did nothing to stop these killings, leave the US alone. They raised alarm for Christians killed, you can also call on Saudi Arabia to raise alarm for Muslims killed too irrespective of religious inclination or tribe of those killed, the blame is on Tinubu and Buhari that did nothing to stop the killings, also these two are Muslims. Everyday there are reports of herdsmen killing thousands of people, what has the govt done to stop this? even when the natives rise to defend themselves against these fulani bandits, the army who has been sleeping al these whiles will just rise to arrest the victims Isn't that proof that Fulanis and the govt are working together to kill Nigerian citizens? We thought this will stop when a yoruba man was made the COAS, unfortunately, the killings, raping and kidnappings has escalated |

helinues:The Catholic priests getting slaughtered in Kaduna for instance, are they Imams? How about the strategic killings of Christians in Southern kaduna that has been going on unbated? I'm using kaduna as a reference because I live and know what's happening here. Your question is quite lame, except you've not been in Nigeria. |
| Re: US Congress Approves Sanctions On Nigeria Over Christian Killings by Acidosis(m): 9:54am On Mar 14, 2025 |
90% of all Christians killed worldwide are Nigerians resident in Nigeria. That's enough proof that Christians are being persecuted. The US Congress has spoken for Nigerian Christians. Saudi Arabia Congress should also speak for Nigerian Muslims. |

God1000:RELIGIOUS KILLINGS IN NIGERIA. - GENESIS. -------‐----‐------------------------------------------------' Beginning 1999, the 12 northern Nigeria states adopted unconstitutional Islamic sharia criminal justice system, which includes stoning women to death for adultery, stoning blasphemous persons to death, cutting the hands of thieves and other harsh punishment methods. By 2009, Boko Haram emerged and says that it's fighting for a Nigeria to be governed with Sharia criminal justice system. Bombings of churches like in Plateau State and bombing of bus terminals where Christisn Easterln Nigeria bound passengers use in Abuja and other places started. A group in the southeast region called IPOB resisting any chance of belonging to Nigeria of Islamic Sharia criminal justice system, was formed with the aim of restoring Biafra. Nigeria's government used the armed forces to kill members of the IPOB group. Ultimately, the IPOB group was declared a terrorist organisation by a kangaroo court in Nigeria. Killings of Christians continue in different guises in Nigeria. |

Can someone explain christian killing to me in Swahili? I never see where FG allowed that and FG is spending heavily on security. Meanwhile terrorists are just killing just anyone. In fact killing more muslims than christians . The only excemption is Kaduna and the butcher has lost power and only forming a new party to snatch and grab and run with power through SDP. |

MAR2012:Muslims have been killed because of their belief. It happened in Jos, it happened in Kaduna, it happened in Kasuwa magani, etc. Explain the burning of mosques in these places too. The same state where Deborah was killed, another Muslim was also killed in the most brutal way. Why are you guys sounding like this is an official thing? The guys who killed Deborah were arrested, the Muslim guy died without anyone being arrested. If it were the other way around, I know what you guys would be saying. You think anyone care about sanctions here? The Christians being killed by UGM, are they Muslims? |
