Sixteen Christians were slain in several attacks in Nigeria
On the 29th of October, Fulani herdsmen and other terrorists killed six Christians in Benue State, following the slaughter of ten others earlier this month, according to local sources.
In Tse Gamber village, Gwer West County, the assailants killed three Christians and kidnapped another early on Sunday, said area resident Perver Acham. He identified the kidnapped Christian as Iorhon Dam.
Acham said three other Christians were slain in Ngai village at about the same time.
Also in Gwer West County, herdsmen, and other terrorists on Oct. 23 killed three Christians in Agagbe village, said area resident Terna Jacob, who identified them as Iorhemba Cletus, 37; Akaa Clifford, 50 and Igbahemba Abua, 55.
“They were ambushed and killed by the terrorists,” Jacob said in a text message to Morning Star News.
Another Christian in Benue state was killed after being kidnapped in September. A family member of 80-year-old Washima Erukaa, a Christian official of the Ukum Local Government Council who had been abducted from his home in Zakibiam on Sept. 23, said they learned on Sunday (Oct. 29) that he had been killed on Oct. 23 because relatives were unable to pay the demanded ransom amount.
