Muslims Turn Christian Villages into Cattleyard
A few days ago WorldNetDaily highlighted the plight of Christians being persecuted by Muslims in their Faith Under Fire section. As we have reported before, our brothers and sisters in Nigeria are suffering greatly because of their faith.
WorldNetDaily cites persecution website Compass Direct concerning the recent persecution in Nigeria that has left two villages completely destroyed turning their villages into cattleyards.
The WorldNetDaily article goes on to say,
The report today said Christian farmers in Mdandi were busy in March harvesting crops when "scores of armed, hard-line Islamists – avoiding the surrounding Muslim villages – descended on Mdandi, destroyed the Christians' homes and drove them out."
Luka Zafi, a pastor of the Church of Christ in Nigeria, said there had been earlier attacks but none so brutal.
"They left and returned the second time with more of them, and all armed with guns. We could not fight back since we do not have arms to fight them. We ran out of the village, and they destroyed our two church buildings and our houses," he said.
His church membership of about 50 was scattered, he reported.
