A Nigerian woman from Plateau State, Lisa Stephens, has shared a harrowing account of an attack on her family in a documentary by British news outlet, Channel 4, which has begun trending online.
The documentary, titled “Investigating a Village of Widows in Nigeria Amid Fears of a ‘Christian Genocide’,” highlights the impact of violence on communities in parts of the country.
In an emotional narration, Stephens recounted how armed attackers allegedly broke into her home in the middle of the night.
She explained that the assailants forced their way into the house after damaging the door.
She said in part, “I was asleep at night when we heard gunshots, i tried to wake my husband but he would not wake up. My baby was breastfeeding at the time, I tried to wake my husband be he didn’t respond.
“When they entered our house they began to shake the door, when they couldn’t open the door, they used a knife to cut it and found the latch. They came in and found me breastfeeding my baby of ten months.
“They seized the baby and sliced him in two with a knife. After that they shot my husband and then pierced him with a knife,” she added,
Recall that on March 29, which coincided with Palm Sunday, gunmen carried out a targeted assault on the Angwan Rukuba (also known as Gari Ya Waye) community in Jos North.
The attackers arrived on motorcycles and in vehicles around 8pm, opening fire indiscriminately on residents in a popular gathering spot within this densely populated suburb frequented by university students.
Eyewitnesses described the assailants as wearing camouflage resembling security force uniforms, and the attack struck a predominantly Christian area near the city of Jos.
Casualty figures from the assault range between 20 and 30 deaths.

OMG!
Islam is and has been at war with western civilization for centuries.
Western civilization has gone to absurd levels to keep their heads in the sand.
As terrible as this is, it’s Africa. If Islam wasn’t involve, they would find some other reason. Africans genocide each other, it’s just a different tribal assignation.
I worked for a Christian couple from Nigeria. They said any discrimination they have experienced here is nothing compared to the tribalism and discrimination in Nigeria.
“They seized the baby and sliced him in two with a knife. After that they shot my husband and then pierced him with a knife,” she added.
That's a seriously deep sleep. I don't think I've ever known a night's sleep where my sleep was that important.
You don’t hear Tucker talk about this. He’s too fixated on Jew hatred.
They did fine until they started “governing” themselves.
Now the satanic muslims are taking over.
That whole islamocult needs to be exterminated.
They’re demonic.
Well that wouldn’t stop genocides. The Mau Mau weren’t Muslims. The Hutus and Tutsi weren’t Muslims. Plenty of Muslims fight each other, plenty of Muslims live in peace. Race is simply a more salient factor in behavior than religion.
The elites only care about the welfare of black , anti-white, South African Marxists.
Not black Christians in Nigeria.
🤬
Sounds like buried stories from the American frontier days.
When the explorer, Francis Burton,traveled there in the late 19th century he said:
'Entering a different village, he found a corpse at the entrance of the hut he was given to sleep in. He was stunned when the villagers said the chief of the tribe was doing that to honor the travelers, and to demonstrate his power.'
That was the value of human life ... even without considering religion
Wait…Tucker Carlson says Muslims love Jesus and are peaceful. It’s the Jooooos fault!!!
I guess, then, this means that all cultures are not equal??? No?
All cultures are equal
