Yes, in Benue and plateau people were attacked consecutively and systemically by fulani terrorists that were described by people that saw them and heard their language during the attacks, this attack went on unabated, they were attacked over 10 times consecutively, continuously while no help or respite was rendered, this happened this year 2025, we all witnessed the mass slaughter of indigenous non fulani non muslims in plateau and Benue state, and majority of the victims were Christians, this is genocidal acts.

But really, are Christians being endangered in this country? I thought terrorists and bandits were attacking at will. Attacking both Muslims and Christians. Recently, a mosque was attacked and many people were taken hostage. Again, Tinubu has been giving Christians key positions in government.

I feel people against this government are the ones instigating these accusations.

In a country governed and presided by Muslim - Muslim ticket it will be extremely difficult that you will tell people that THE CHRISTIANS AREN'T PERSECUTED

How do you prove that? When you can't have a Christian as a president or vice president

These are consequences of some tribalism and religious irredentism we deploy

Mumu people were killed like chickens in Benue and plateau, Christians, none of you, none of your northern religious leaders gave a statement of condemnation...this attacks went on systematically for more than 10 consecutive continuous times, all the victims were from a particular indigenous group and were Christians. It's better for man to die as a man than to live like a coward. Oppression under any guise will never stand, we all agree to be a part of this contraption because we agree we will all accept religious freedoms, freedoms and human rights...now your people want to use backdoor and turn Nigeria to a sharia country, God forbid, we rather opt out of such a backward nation...we can't live like barbarians in a 21st century, everyone rather go his own way, we are not joined in the hip.

These people are evil, they cause mayhem and instability around the world, going about nations looking for which is next to be destabilized.
Firstly, the infiltration of our country by criminals and herders from neighboring countries was brought about by the destabilization of Libya, by these same Americans through the same false narratives. Now, Libya is a failed state, through Libya, arms are smuggled into this nation to kill both Muslims and Christians. The source of the problem is therefore America.
The greatest genocide in the history of the 21st century is ongoing in Gaza, sponsored by these same useless Americans, and now they feel sympathy for blacks that they hate so much.
Dear Ameriacns, we are too smart to be deceived with false narratives, America doesn't care about anybody, they only care about themselves. The current narrative being sponsored by some of Donald Thrump's die hard supporters, only points to the fact that our president is doing something right and we will continue in that regard.

Say No to the devil's agent of destabilization, say no to America!!!

A report from the UK Parliament

https://committees.parliament.uk/writtenevidence/36727/html/

Boko Haram’s specific targeting of Christians and symbols of the Christian faith can be seen in the following illustrations:



On 6 May 2020, Boko Haram attacked Debiro, Dakwiama and Tarfa communities of Biu LGA in Borno State, burnt two EYN churches, razed down the two villages, killing Mr Audu Bata and some houses in Tarfa.[19]

On 21 February 2020, Garkida community, the birthplace of the EYN movement, was attacked by Boko Haram. The first EYN Church was built here. Two other Churches Anglican and Living Faith were also burnt. The EYN Brethren College of Health Technology, EYN Rural Health Department and its vehicles, prominent Christian houses and shops were looted and burnt. Mr Emmanuel Bitrus Tarfa was abducted. [20]

On 2 February 2020, Boko Haram attacked Leho community of Askira/Uba LGA of Borno State again. All three EYN Churches were burnt, EYN Leho 1, Leho 2 and Leho Bakin Rijiya. [21]

On 2 February 2020, Boko Haram attacked Michika Community of Adamawa State and abducted Rev Lawan Andimi the EYN District Church Secretary.[22]

On 2 January 2020, Boko Haram kidnapped and later beheaded the EYN District Church Council leader and CAN Chairman of Minchika LGA in Adamawa State.[23]
29 December 2019, Mandaragirau community of Biu in the LGA of Borno State was attacked. 18 Christians were abducted, the oldest was a 42-year-old woman, the youngest was a three year old child. The Church building and foodstuff were destroyed as well as the primary school. [24]

On Christmas Eve 2019, Boko Haram jihadists driving trucks and motorcycles stormed into Kwarangulum near the town of Chibok in Borno, firing at residents, looting all they could and burning their homes.[25]

On 22 December 2019, in Borno state, Boko Haram jihadists attacked two passenger buses and released the Muslim passengers. They then held back the Christians, separating the men and women. A pastor from Deeper Life Bible Church and two other men were killed on the spot, while the pastor’s relative and two humanitarian workers were abducted.[26]



Armed Fulani herdsmen are also attacking Christians, on their holy days and in their holy places as the following illustrations show:



Attack on Christmas carolers in southern part of Kaduna State on 22 December 2017 by armed Fulani herdsmen which left 5 Christians killed and several others injured;

Attacks on worshippers on Christmas Day 2017 by suspected Muslim Fulani Herdsmen during Christmas service in Benue State that left 3

Christians killed and others injured, and also attacks on New Year’s Day that killed over 70 Christians;

Attacks on four churches in Kwara State on New Year’s Day 2018 with many injured, rapes committed and properties destroyed by local Muslims;

The killing of two priests and 17 others during a service at St Ignatius’ Church, in Mbalom, Benue State on 24 April 2018 by armed Fulani herdsmen;
Attacks in Adamawa State on Christmas Eve (24 December 2017) by suspected Muslim Herdsmen (1 death, 4 injuries).[27]

500 churches have been destroyed in Benue State since 2011, one of the States worst hit by the conflict. In Taraba State, more than 100 churches were destroyed by Fulani herders in 2014 and over 200 abandoned out of fear of further attacks. Approximately 65% of local churches in Wukari were burnt and the entire population displaced.[28]

The bombing of St Finbar’s Catholic Church in Rayfield on 12 March 2012.[29]
On 31 December 2011, Boko Haram issued an ultimatum asking Christians to leave the North and go the South. By midnight, they were going from house to house to search out Christians by name for elimination.
The bombing of Madala church building in Suleja, Niger state, near Abuja on Christmas Day 2011.[30]


We urge the FAC to also consider the 2019 Bishop of Truro’s Independent Review for the British Foreign Secretary on persecuted Christians globally. It highlighted Nigeria as a focus country and examined the killing of two priests and 17 others during a service at St Ignatius’ Church, Mbalom, in Nigeria’s ‘Middle Belt’ on 24 April 2018. The Bishop assessed that the evidence suggested a religious motive lay, at least in part, behind this notorious event.[31] Additionally, Open Door’s World Watch Research Unit has a series of in-depth studies on four Nigerian states (Taraba, Benue, Southern Kaduna, Nasarawa) that show very clearly how Christians have been singled out for their religion.[32]
