RELIEF DISTRIBUTION TO PERSECUTED CHRISTIANS

Unguwar Rogo

Ugom Community, Maro Ward

Kajuru, Southern Kaduna

7th March 2025

On 1st January 2025, the Fulani militia attacked Unguwar Rogo in Kajuru LGA of Southern Kaduna. They rode in on about 30 motorcycles, each carrying three terrorists. Fortunately, the defenceless Christian villagers heard them coming and fled for their lives, narrowly avoiding yet another massacre. Unable to hunt them down, the Fulani terrorists instead emptied magazines of bullets directly into homes and buildings, damaging their interiors. Not finding any people - they took to burning and vandalising 37 houses.

Unsatisfied, they prowled elsewhere, looking for victims. In the Ugom Community, Maro Ward, they spitefully ruined 9 houses, including a Church building. The terrorists then robbed the ravaged people of what bags of groundnuts, rice, beans, maize, soybeans, and livestock they could find. The destruction of food and property is in the backdrop of record inflation, drought, and food insecurity the rural areas of Kaduna are barely surviving.

Baba Danladi, the Village Head, remarked, "I am grateful. I had said before that people don't know us, nobody came to visit or help us since this calamity befell us. I also said, we don’t have anybody. However, you have showed by your coming that people know us and are thinking about us. We really appreciate you and we want to say. ‘Thank you’. All the people who have helped us, we are praying for you that the Lord will reward you. We don’t have anything else to say but, ‘thank you.’ We have been suffering here, but we will not leave our town. Whatever happens we will still be here in this town. We ask for your prayers for God's protection. Thank you. Our plea is that God will help us."

We thank all the brethren who donated funds to support persecuted Christians in Nigeria. God bless you and count it for you as righteousness. We also thank our team in Kaduna State for devotedly conducting the relief project despite the dangers they constantly experience.

God bless you all.

Your brother in Christ,

Bosun
