By Jack Moore, International Business Times – “A prominent Nigerian reverend has revealed Islamist terror group Boko Haram destroyed over 180 churches in the West African country following its capture of towns and villages in the north-eastern states of Borno and Adamawa.

Reverend Gideon Obasogie, the director of Catholic Social Communication of Maiduguri Diocese in Borno State, said the group’s seizure of territory in both states has seen 185 churches torched and over 190,000 people displaced by their insurgency.

In his statement, Obasogie said Boko Haram’s ‘ransacking and torching’ of churches had forced priests to leave their homes for two months while displaced civilians were still unable to return to their towns and villages.

He added the destruction of churches was ‘sad, heart-aching and potentially dangerous to the territorial integrity and common good of Nigeria.’

‘It is over 30 days now that our church communities in Gulak, Shuwa, Michika, Bazza were ransacked by the callous attacks of the Boko Haram terrorists,’ the statement said.

‘Our priests are displaced, while citizens…are counting their losses and regrets as they have been reduced to the status of Internally Displaced Persons [IDP]. Where is the freedom?’

‘Life is really terribly difficult. We are waiting eagerly to go back home, even as it is obvious that we are going to [have to] reconstruct our looted and burnt houses and ecclesial structures.

‘We have been sleeping in uncompleted buildings, camps and school premises. We have been absorbed into houses of relations and friends in [their] sixties and seventies.'” Read more.

Flashback: Nigeria: Christians Pray For Strength To Stand Strong For Christ And Be Bold Witnesses In The Midst Of Persecution – “With the U.S. reportedly poised to send troops into the region, Christians in Nigeria are providing an example of how believers should stand during intense persecution. Last year over 2,000 Christians in the country were murdered by Muslim extremists. While it is often tempting in trials such as this to pray for deliverance, the Christians in Nigeria are praying for something else. Carl Moeller, president of Open Doors USA, said the Christians are praying for the strength to stand strong.” Read more.

Flashback: Terror Leader: ‘Allah Instructed Us To Soak The Ground Of Nigeria With Christian Blood’ – “Remember, Islam has nothing to do with this. It’s a peaceful and non-violent religion… ‘It is Allah that instructed us, until we soak the ground of Nigeria with Christian blood and so called Muslims contradicting Islam… This is a war against Christians and democracy and their constitution, we have not started, we will be in Abuja, and in your state. This war is against Christians, I mean Christians, generally the infidels. Allah says we should finish them when we get them.'” Read more.
