A SERIES of chilling attacks on by Muslims on Christians in Nigeria has left 45 people dead and others fighting for their lives amidst an increasing Islamic crackdown in the country.
The co-ordinated attacks were executed in five villages across the central belt of the West African nation - an area mostly populated by Christians.
The Muslim Hausa-Fulani herdsmen responsible for the latest wave of killings have already taken over 16 villages - stealing grazing land from Christian communities.
Most of the victims in the latest atrocities were women, children and elderly people, who could not escape the gunfire of the attackers.
More than 120 buildings, including eight churches, were also razed to the ground.
Samuel Adamu, who was in one of the villages that came under attack, said: "They laid siege to the village before they started shooting sporadically and throwing explosives at our homes.
"They were armed with guns, knives, machetes and explosives.
"They slaughtered [and] butchered women, children and old people who could not escape."
The local government condemned the "barbaric" attacks but the chairman of a local group of evangelical churches, Rev. Zachariah Gado, said the attackers were escaping justice.
He said: "There have been increasing indications of the existence of a desperate, well-funded, organised and executed campaign not only to make life unbearable for the entire southern Kaduna territory through threats, intimidation and psychological warfare, but also to occupy the land through what can only be described as ethno-religious cleansing by Fulani herdsmen militia."
Over the past three years 180 people have been killed and 10,000 displaced, while hundreds of properties, including dozens of churches, being burnt down in the country amidst the religious unrest.
No, I read this is a conflict between Muslim and Christian extremists.>s
Who is paying for this Muslim army?
This poison has to be stopped.
It makes sense to keep all of them out of this country.
Soon
I think we should satelite monitor those countries and set up some sort of early warning system for Christian villages. Arm them too.
this muslim goal/dictate is what pro illegal immigrants do not understand nor do they want to believe there are humans capable of this. if there are ‘good’ muslims now, there wont be.. for if you are not for muslim/sharia.. you will be dead also. it is a believed order by their Mohammad
I don’t know but I bet they are armed with weapons that were pilfered from Libya thanks to 0bama and Hillary.
Now just wait a minute! Our “leaders” have told us that moozlums are a peaceful and peace-loving people. They wouldn’t lie to us would they?
The solution is simple. When these evil satanists take a village, killing everyone in it first, wait a while. After they’ve moved in, napalm them. Bomb them. Drop mines all around them. Straif the roads of anything that moves out of them. Rinse, wash, repeat.
