Ongoing persecution for Christians in Nigeria
Monday, December 21st, 2020
Since 2015, extremist violence has killed more than 8,000 Christians.
The exact death toll may be much higher, as many go unreported.
The Nigerian authorities and security forces seem unable or unwilling to intervene or protect the mainly Christian communities.
One village head told Barnabas Fund they are tired and don’t want to bother others about their tragedies.
He says we seem always to be reporting deaths and attacks, and people are weary of the reports
Barnabas Fund has launched a major campaign to support Christians in Nigeria.
They are asking people to go to their website and sign an open letter to UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
