By SaharaReporters, New York
As tension mounts in Plateau State following two incidents of heavy militant killings this weekend, security agents say they have discovered 50 corpses in the burnt home of a pastor in Matse village of Riyom local government area.
The bodies, some of them burnt beyond recognition, were discovered in the home of a pastor of the Church of Christ in Nigeria (COCIN), and family sources said they belonged to people who ran into the pastor’s home for safety as Fulani gunmen surrounded and attacked the area on Saturday morning.
Some 20 persons were killed in nine villages in Barkin Ladi Local Government Area of the state on Saturday.
And on Sunday, during a mass burial for those victims, gunmen in military uniform attacked mourners, killing many people, including a Senator, a member of the House of Representatives, and Plateau State assemblyman.
The government has imposed a dusk to dawn curfew on the state, while soldiers have been drafted in to ensure order.
Whether u believe it or not we are at d end times d Bible predicted. The troubles here & there are all pointers to the immenence of Jesus’ return. I think God has been lenient enough to have given the indices to the end times and kind enough to have delayed His coming. Things will never get better but rather worse. This is no pessimissm but a simple truth! If u have not given ur life to Christ pls do so b4 it’s too late.
in nigeria there isnt security anymore,what the government only care about their selves and their families.look @ how death and killings has become a comon thing in country, mr president do somthing before is too late,i bet you if this should continue nigeria will get splited.
