Nigeria: Muslims Slaughter 700 Christians as ‘Farewell Gifts’ to Outgoing President
Jihad Watch ^ | 6/20/23 | Robert Spencer

If one believes that the one true god has commanded such killing (cf. Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, 9:5), then to engage in it is a blessed act, and such killing would be a fitting gift to others who also believe it to be divinely commanded.

“Farewell Gifts To Buhari, Ors: 700 Christians Slaughtered In May, 1,100 In 60 Days And 2,150 In 160 Days Of 2023,” by Emeka Umeagbalasi, International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law, June 12, 2023:

"Fulani Jihadists Slaughtered 700 Christians As “Farewell Gifts” To Nigerian Radical Islamic Leaders

The Nigerian radical Islamic leaders who marked the end of their civilian office tenures on 29th May 2023 were wished “farewell” by Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen who marked the end of their office tenures by slaughtering not less than 700 defenseless Christians in May 2023 (month of handover). In a detailed investigation by the International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law, it was gathered that not less than 300 Christians were slaughtered in Plateau State (Mangu county, etc) between 15th and 17th May 2023 alone. The second worst hit State is Benue where not less than 110 Christians were slaughtered in May-early June 2023 including 40 slaughtered between 3rd and 4th June 2023 and 18 defenseless Christians hacked to death on 21st May 2023 as well as 28 others slaughtered between 7th and 10th May 2023. In all, Benue State accounted for over 190 Christian deaths between 12th April and 12th June 2023.

The third worst hit State is Kaduna where not less than 100 Christians were slaughtered between 12th April and 12th June 2023. The out-gone Government of Kaduna State-backed killing of Christians as “farewell gifts” had included slaughtering of 33 Christians by Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen on 15th April 2023 in Runji village in......

Did the Christians turn other cheek or they fought?

This is the part where satan quotes Jesus with “ turn the other cheek” and not “ if you dont have a sword, sell your coat and buy one. “.

Apparently, to live as a Christian in Nigeria means you are totally on your own. Neither the Government or it’s police force or even it’s military force is utilized to protect you.
These mass slaughters by radical Muslims have been happening at least for the last eight years, probably longer than that. One has to wonder if certain people in positions of power have made some agreement with the Muslims to allow for an occasional ‘harvesting’ of infidels to kill, kidnap, rape and procreate.

It is a human tragedy, made worse by the fact that when many Nigerians (legally) come to the USA, they are very productive citizens. We are not talking about people from Somalia or Ethiopia, who have never known peace and stability for the last generation.

islam - brings nothing but death and destruction. There is no redeeming value to that non-religion.

But how do you do it? They’ve run rampant in the world since AD700. Kill and destroy. That’s it.

There’s not nice, polite answer ...

But Christians living out their Christianity with the same dedication that many mohammedans live out their mohammendanism would help. We Christians need to quit apologizing for the alleged “wrongs” of our religion and stand up for what we believe in.

What do you think?

Christians nowdays have an interminable number of other cheeks.

It didn’t use to be this way - once they actually fought and won.

They have no one to blame but themselves for the slaughter.

Considering how many of these slaughters of Christians are occurring many places around the world and all the “prayers that have gone up” one can arrive at only one of two conclusion - “God is deaf”, or “God doesn’t care much about Christians”.

Horrible theology.

Everything is ordained by God, and his viewpoint is eternity.

The dead will be bestowed martyrs crowns for all eternity in recognition of their faithfulness towards Jesus Christ.

“The dead will be bestowed martyrs crowns for all eternity in recognition of their faithfulness towards Jesus Christ.”

Yes I’m sure they’re thrilled at having been slaughtered.

They probably ran toward the islamists and pleaded to be killed so they could be martyrs.

Is that what you would do?

I do not understand this either, but my finite mind is not capable of understanding all of the ways of our God. One day, when I pass to eternity it may become clear to me.

We know that in everything, God works for good for those who love him Rom 8:28

Saying a prayer for you.
