A new report from a non-governmental organization claims that more than a thousand Christians were massacred at the hands of Islamic militants in Nigeria in 2019.
The Christian Post reports that the violence is nothing new; nomadic tribes, which are mostly Muslim, have fought with established farmers, who are mainly Christian, for decades. But the new report, compiled by the non-government organizations and violence watchdog, HART, which exists to “support people suffering from conflict and persecution,” says violence has ticked up markedly in recent years. This is the second year in a row, the group says, that more than a thousand Christians have been killed in the African nation.
