Islamic raiders, with machetes and AK47 rifles, looted destroying 95 houses, farmland and three churches. They killed Pastor Adamu Gyang Wurim and his family by setting fire to their house while them inside and shot his wife. Also, two villagers killed &wounding several others.
Local lawyer, Dalyop Solomon Mwantiri, spoke with one of three surviving pastor's children away at University that learned of it on Facebook.
"When I called a friend to find out about the situation, the report I received was very devastating," the young man said. "I couldn't believe that all my family members have been engulfed in the pogrom. On reaching home, I saw my daddy and younger ones burnt beyond recognition."
"The three of us left don't know what to do, especially now that we are still students who have nothing to hold on [to]," he said.
One witness, Mr. Gwom Pam Dusu, working at Roman Catholic Church, said local security had received information about impending attack failing to act. "Security personnel didn't do anything to avert the terror attacks."
Regional manager Nathan Johnson, Africa of International Christian Concern, expressed astonishment over government's inaction
"The government allows continued destruction and killing of villages and citizens showing lack of care or ability."
"If this continues, there will have to be international intervention or else Nigeria may devolve into a major civil war."
Istifanus Gyang, House of Representatives, concurred accusing the federal government of complicity following the renewed attacks two months after the slaughter of over 200 Christians by Fulani herdsmen... with thousands of displaced victims in Internally Displaced Persons camps.
Unfortunatly, the perpetrators continue to execute their agenda without an appropriate response by government!" he said.

God’s army needs weapons, not just prayers. Bullets rip through prayerbooks and kill those who are praying.
Time to arm them and let them fight back, just as Queen Esther and her cousin Mordecai did for the Jews of Persia under attack by Haman.
The President of Nigeria since 2015 is Muhammadu Buhari. He is a Fulani Muslim, the same as the terrorists in this article.
The country is 52% Christian and 47% Muslim, according to Wikipedia, based on a Pew survey from 2016.
Obama’s inauguration??
Heh....good one. Would make a nice caption.
Protected, a minority but waiting for this time
THAT is the religion of peace, the wonderful, kind, tolerant, peace-loving love fest that the leftist politicians are lovingly welcoming, willingly selling out their countries for votes.
Seals are busy with Hollywood careers.
Maybe call a real unit. Ones that don’t lie about taking down Osama or leave my unit while providing overwatch when things get too hot. *spit*.
Prayers for these brave Christians.
Oh, those fun-loving, peace-loving moozlums are at it again. #What a barrel of laughs.

You expect FB to do otherwise when one of the top managers (can’t remember his name or title) of FB ran over to Egypt after the US Embassy was attacked in Libya and sided with the Muslim Brotherhood who overthrew Mubarak?
Come on, you have to do better than wonder why Social Media is going to bat for these people. Just remember mooslimes are the worst enemy because just like a dog turning on its owner so too will the mooslimes turn on the demoRATS and it will be too late for everyone by then.
The Religion of Peace. Yet again.
“Seals are busy with Hollywood careers.”
Realistically, political masters on all stripe prevent any military solution. Even if criminals as described in the article were put down hard tomorrow, pols still scratch their head pondering “what then”. Meanwhile they’ll proceed only to pick their nose and scratch their butt.
Reading the article, a readily viewed flic of a war worn but still good to go Crusader came to mind. A similar single-minded spirit will be needed to accomplish even a modicum of Crusader’s success.
Common enough mistake but that’s SEAL not Seals. Seals clap their fins and bark when tossed fish. Not being a SEAL, I have no idea what they do.
Yup.
