Bandits Gun Down Worshippers Inside Mosque, Abduct Residents In Sokoto by adenigga(op): 4:44pm On Jul 29
At least three persons were killed inside a mosque, while several others were abducted when bandits attacked Tsamaye village in Sabon Birni Local Government Area of Sokoto State.

Residents told Daily Trust that the attackers, who arrived in large numbers at about 8:30pm, on Tuesday, remained in the village until about 3:00 a.m, on Wednesday.


They were said to have spent more than six hours attacking residents, rustling livestock, looting valuables and firing sporadically.

An eyewitness, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said villagers recovered the bodies of seven victims on Wednesday morning after the attackers fled.

“We were sitting after the Isha’i prayer when the bandits invaded our village. They first surrounded the security operatives stationed in the community and opened fire on them. They laid siege to their location, preventing them from coming out, while other members of the group moved from house to house, rustling livestock, looting valuables and abducting residents,” he said.

The resident said three of the victims were killed inside a mosque during the attack, adding that all of them were displaced persons who had fled from neighbouring communities following persistent bandit attacks.

He added that the attackers also broke into several shops, looted goods, set a vehicle ablaze and burnt two shops before leaving the village.

The source said the exact number of those abducted could not immediately be established because many residents fled into nearby bushes during the attack.

“We believe some people escaped because of the confusion. It is only later today that we may be able to ascertain the actual number of those abducted,” he said.

He added that the attackers carted away an unspecified number of livestock.

According to him, two of those killed were indigenes of Tsamaye, while the remaining five were displaced persons from neighbouring communities who had taken refuge in the village.

The resident said the abduction of at least three people had been confirmed after relatives called their phone numbers and the bandits answered, confirming that the victims were in their custody.

He said the security operatives stationed in the village were caught unawares by the attack, allowing the bandits to surround and pin them down, thereby preventing them from responding to distress calls from residents.

“Our security personnel have always been doing their best to protect us and even assist neighbouring communities in Sabon Birni Local Government Area. This time, however, the bandits took them by surprise and prevented them from coming to our rescue,” he said.

When contacted, the spokesperson of the Sokoto State Police Command, DSP Ahmad Rufai, said the command was aware of the incident but was still awaiting comprehensive details.

“We are aware of the incident but we are yet to get full details as we await it,” he said.

The fact that you were so pressed to rush to type this without proofreading shows how evil you are. Just because this goes against your Christian genocide narrative, it's a lie. Time will tell.

This is not the hustle for virgins.

It’s the fight for power, to grab and run with it to Kaduna 11 years ago by Jagaban of Borgu. The master strategist begged Buhari out of retirement to end PDP prosperity, peace and security by making Jonathan a one term president.

Family affairs.

The same ideology in that mosque created them.

Family affairs.

Next!

Then again,

It could also be a lie, a propaganda to claim that terrorists are also killing Muslims...

Judging by recent (proposed) sanctions on the government for continued Christians genocide.
Re: Bandits Gun Down Worshippers Inside Mosque, Abduct Residents In Sokoto by Nobody: 7:04am On Jul 30
We love to use word recklessly in this country. These are terrorists and they have a mission.

Islam is an international political ideology - disguise as a religion - aim at conquering other people's territory, to kill the aboriginal people and to dominate them. This is evident all over the world where sharia law is practiced. And, let me bring you close to home; the northern Nigeria is predominantly Hausas, but it is very hard to see an Hausa man today as a local government chairman talkless of Governor because the Fulanis have taken over using religion.

If you say that Islamic terrorists are killing muslims also, those muslims (or mosques) bombed belongs to rival Islamic sects and/or those that do not fully support the full Islamic ideology or preach against it. And for muslims in the southern Nigeria, especially those in the southwest Yorubaland, they in the north are already telling you that you are not religiously muslim enough.

The Quran contain several passages that commands muslims to fight, kill, kidnap and terrorize non-believers and take over their land and possessions (condemning non-muslims as "infidels"wink; This is no longer a secret as these passages are available in many translations of the Quran available online. The islamists you commonly call extremists are the real muslims that follows the command of Allah.


All these fake imported religions have destroyed the normal mental processes of a lot of our people.

If you are following any of the two religion, you should know for fact that:

There is no heaven, there is no hell, there is no God (or god), there is no Allah, there are no angels, there are no demons, there are no spirits, there is no life after death, juju don't work, there is no eternal judgment, there is no karma, there was no historical Jesus. All those are figment of human imaginations and tools use by a very few some to control the very many others. The earlier you understand and accept these facts as facts, the happier and merrier your life and existence will be.

The religion you're currently claiming is the religion of your parents, if you were born into a different family of another religion (say Hinduism), that is the exact religion you will practice.

You were born without a religion in you, your factory reset has no religion in it. If you were to be a phone and they do factory reset on you today being a phone, there will not be anything found related to religion in your settings, files and file systems anymore; you learn religion only after your birth growing up.


Islam is idolatry and paganism, Christianity aswell is idolatry - All the world religion is idolatry, including all the Abrahamic religion. Holy communion is idolatory, bowing for a stone call Kaaba of the Bedouin tribes is also idolatory, killing of rams is idolatory, kissing or licking of a stone at mecca is idolatory, throwing of stone at pilgrimage is idolatory too.

Infact, Illah is what the Arabic call God and not Allah. Allah was one of the diety been worshiped before the invention of Islam. That is why muslims will say something like "la ilah ila huwa" meaning Allah is one Illah (God). Have you ask yourself why Prophet Mohammed's father who was an idol worshiper and who lived before the invention of islam has Allah in is name Abdullai== Abdu Allah? It is because Allah has been an idol worshiped by paganists before the Prophet received his revelations.

Nakedly circumambulations of the Kaaba, annual prigrimage to mecca, kissing of black stone, bowing towards the stone (stone worship) are all preislamic pagan practises by the nomadic Bedouin tribe and the same is what they still practice today.

All Abrahamic religion are idolatory, they only package them well and condemn your heritage as evil, whereas, Nigeria was better in terms of morality, honesty and integrity before they brought the foreign religions.

In peace loving, emotional intelligence, love for neighbors, respect for sanctity of life, we are even better than those who brought those religion with primitive leaders and prophets whose morality and characters are highly questionable.


Release yourself today from the shackles of religion. Stop wasting away your life and existence!

If you like, allow one illiterate alfa, imam or pastor to keep telling you "you will go to hell". When you die, your dead experience will be like the same experience you had before your conception (pregnancy) ie. There is nothing like afterlife. Or where were you before your mother gave birth to you?

That's what the fellow is say but you are not listening.

When Christians are killed there are evidence in pictures and videos but when they kill muslims there are no such evidence, just written words and narrations.
