Gunmen attack Catholic priest, mourners in Kaduna​

SOKAPU accuses FG, el-Rufai of apathy to people’s plight
Southern Kaduna Peoples Union (SOKAPU) has accused President Muhammadu Buhari and Kaduna State Governor Nasir el-Rufai of not showing concern to their plight over attacks by herdsmen.

This followed the attack by gunmen on mourners and a Catholic priest who were conducting mass burial for 24 victims in Damakasuwa community, Kaduna, on Saturday.

In a statement yesterday by its spokesman, Luka Biniyat, SOKAPU lamented: “We are particularly worried that these massacres and destruction in our communities are becoming too much to bear, considering that Governor el-Rufai has neither said anything about the killings nor shown concern to the plight of our communities whenever they are attacked.
I am not sure if this is Catholic or World news but this was a real bad attack.

https://www.persecution.org/ Keeps up with persecution of Christians around the world. There may be another website dedicated to tracking these events as well.

I am going to try to find out more.

In one of the neighboring African countries, there was a story of Fulani Herdsmen (tribe, it sounds like they are the culprit here, or does it just say “Herdsmen”?) being massacred.

But the mass burial here, 24, huge number.

This is very lawless.

This is surely, the same story:


“… the suspect Fulani militia”.
