Bishop Wilfred Chikpa Anagbe of the Diocese of Makurdi slammed the recent brutal attacks on Nigerian Christians by Fulani militias as part of a “genocide” in which the country’s government is complicit.
In a June 4 interview with ACI Africa, the bishop emphasized that the latest wave of Fulani terrorist attacks, which began May 25 and have continued into early June, resulting in the slaughter of at least 85 Christians, are part of a systemic genocide of the country’s Christian population. Anagbe also sharply criticized the Nigerian government for failing to protect the nation’s Christians against the continued attacks.
Nigeria has been named the most dangerous region for Christians.
“No nation watches her citizens slaughtered like animals and says there is nothing to be done. It’s genocide,” the bishop said.
The Fulani terrorists opened their wave of attacks on May 25, a Sunday, by massacring 20 lay Christians, as well as abducting a priest and several nuns. A week later, in another major attack on Sunday, June 1, the Fulani militias killed at least 43 Christians in Gwer West and Apa counties.
