When the white men invaded our lands, they destroyed our shrines and killed our priests. Because nothing happened to them, it was seen as superiority of their god over those of our ancestors and thus, our ancestors deserted their gods and worshipped the god of the white men.


The destruction of churches and killing of men of God by muslims should also be seen as superiority of Allah over Jehovah.
So every christian should abandon christianity and join Islam
you mean the religion where their spiritual leader slept with a 6 year old girl?


No thanks.

The alleged killing of Rev Father Joseph Gor, Felix Tyolaha, and other dedicated members of St Ignatius Quasi Parish, Ukpor, Mbalom in Gwer West Local Government Council of Benue have been condemned by Christian agencies across Nigeria.

A statement by its Director of Communications, Rev Fr Moses Lorapuu, said that the attacks were perpetrated by herdsmen who stormed the Mbalom community, killed parishioners during the morning mass at the church.

Presently the church is in search of some of their prominent businessmen and missionaries who are the major sponsors of activities in the church, allegedly on the death roll of the invading herdsmen.

We gathered that Victor Nwankwo, Silvester Okowa and three others were suspected to be targeted at, during the early morning bloodbath by Fulani herdsmen. These men according to reports are the major benefactors of the Catholic Church development in Benue state. They herdsmen allegedly claim that Victor Nwankwo and his four colleagues was amongst the missionaries that converted hundreds of Muslims to Christians.

According to investigations, Victor Nwankwo and his fellow missionaries are yet to be found as they have become a search agenda in the list of Africa’s most dreaded insurgent group.

The Diocese expressed regret at the nonchalant attitude of the security agencies in containing the killings. It said the herdsmen, who stormed the community, burnt down houses, destroyed crops and killed people. The church, therefore, urged the relevant authorities to stop the killings in the Benue valley.

Rev.Lorapuu said the Diocese had been active in providing food and relief materials to Internally Displaced Persons (IDP’s) since the onset of hostilities in the state and wondered why it could be marked as a target of attacks. “The attack on the priests is an attack on everything that we ever stood for and believed in,” says Lorapuu. Meanwhile, concerted efforts to get reaction from the Benue Police Command failed as its Public Relations Officer, ASP Moses Yamu, was not forthcoming with remarks. Rev. Fr. Gor had before the attack written on Facebook; “Living in fear. The fulani herdsmen are still around us in Mbalom. They refuse to go. They still go grazing around us. No weapons to defend ourselves”. Herdsmen in the early hours of the morning attacked a Catholic Church and parishioners who went for 5.30 a.m. mass. Reports say the bodies of the dead have been taken to St. Theresa’s Hospital Makurdi.

Response is difficult here because Christianity is a religion of peace.
When someone says you have craw craw in your buttocks, you do not have to bare your bum to prove him wrong. You make things worse.
Christians have been attacked from a weak point of their faith but there must be solution. God is capable of doing his war.. just watch.

I suspect Ortom's hand in this; the last time clergy were killed, it was discovered that Benue natives were actually responsible, after which then suddenly the killings stopped; now with election round the corner they are apparently trying score last minute political capital.

The hand writing is very clear.

Buhari is herdsmen, and herdsmen is Buhari period!

Tell me a country that has survived with this style of nepotism and neglect?

Where in the world could such gruesome murder take place and repeatedly without the president putting a stop on such trash?

Have Nigerians ever seen Buhari taken any action or even speak to condemn herdsmen attack?

Kick him off this 16th February election.

The country is in total debacle!
