Nigeria: Muslims attack Christian farming community, murdering eight Christians and injuring 15 others
No airstrikes will end this war. No negotiated agreement will end this war. No UN declaration will end this war. No declaration of victory from Trump will end this war. This war is an Islamic jihad, and it has no end. If somehow the jihadis in Nigeria are stopped now, they will regroup and return to the field when they can. They will not give up their jihad, because the imperative to wage war against non-Muslims is in the Qur’an. This war will only when there are no more believers in Muhammad, and there will likely be believers in Muhammad until the end of the world, barring some mass and miraculous conversion.
Fulani Muslims Kill 8 Christians, Injure 15
International Christian Concern, June 1, 2026:
Suspected Fulani gunmen attacked a Christian farming community in central Nigeria’s Plateau state on Sunday evening, killing eight Christians and injuring at least 15 others, according to residents and government officials.
The attack occurred in Gwomjang, a predominantly Christian village in Kadunu Ward of Mangu Local Government Area, near the town of Gindiri. The community lies within Nigeria’s Middle Belt. This region has experienced years of violence involving armed attacks on rural communities, disputes over land use, and growing insecurity affecting farmers and civilians.
Residents said the attackers entered the village at about 7:30 p.m. on May 31, shortly after church activities had ended. According to local witnesses, many residents were returning to their homes following evening worship services and a women’s prayer meeting when gunfire erupted.
“After church service and after the women had finished their prayer meeting, people were returning to their homes as it was getting dark,” said Dung Ezekiel Sunday, the youth leader of Gwomjang and an eyewitness to the attack. “At that time, gunshots were heard in the community.”
According to community leaders, the gunmen opened fire on civilians before fleeing the area. Four men and four women were killed, while the 15 wounded sustained injuries ranging from gunshot wounds to other trauma-related injuries. Survivors were rushed to a nearby medical facility for emergency treatment.
“The entire community was thrown into confusion,” Ezekiel said. “From what we saw during the incident, the attackers were believed to be Fulani men. We have lived with our neighbors for many years, and in the past, we maintained peaceful relations with them.”
Residents said the attackers approached from the direction of a nearby settlement and retreated along the same route after carrying out the assault. Villagers contacted soldiers stationed in the area shortly after the attack began, but residents said security personnel arrived after the gunmen had already fled.
“We contacted soldiers stationed in Kadunuwa, but they arrived around 10 p.m., after the attackers had already left,” Ezekiel said….
Democratic Republic of the Congo: Muslims murder 16 people in jihad raid on village
As always, the goal is to terrorize the non-Muslims into converting to Islam or leaving the area. This is how the Islamic world was created. The imperative has never been reformed or rejected, and obviously some Muslims continue to pursue it.
