Gunmen in Southwestern Nigeria Kill Dozens at Church Service

Gunmen killed dozens of worshipers including children in a shooting at a Sunday church service in southwestern Nigeria, in the latest example of spiraling religious violence in Africa’s most populous nation.

Government officials, law enforcement and witnesses said masked attackers walked into a Pentecost service at the St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church in Ondo state spraying bullets and detonating explosives. There was no official estimate of the death toll, but some local lawmakers said it could be higher than 50.

What?🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Nigeria Religious. political, and economic fanatics, extremists, and terrorists destroy both nature and humanity

Muslims kill Xtians daily in Nigeria

Better change your worship techniques then dying

Well... It's good they have really restrictive gun and explosives laws making it almost impossible for a law abiding civilian to get them, isn't it... If it wasn't for these restrictive gun laws they might have mass killings like only the US has...

Madness ! Simply madness !!!

So sad, I don't understand such hate and cowardice 😥

Globalists

Divide the country - it is a British experiment and it has failed. Christians & Muslims cannot cohabitate - impossible to live with islamic extremists, barbarians and lunatics from the North. Buhari regime is a terrorist enabler.

Nigeria the most corrupt African nation in Africa with all the Wealth no peace the international community needed not to get involved

How terrible

This never happens in other countries! The rest of the world is baffled by America’s obsession with guns.

Disgusting… this has happened too many times in Nigeria. The NGRPresident NigeriaGov have done nothing. Basically condoning terrorism.

They were not ordinary gunmen. They were Islamist fulani terrorists. Call them by their names

It's only God that can save us. You will not see your president address this because they know who they are. Were are the Nigeria military when you need them most We're the Nigeria Airfoce when you need them most. May the Lord God Almighty keep us safe in this trying time.

Rip

Heartbreaking 💔

Where the guns come from?

How long before we can declare the never ending atrocities in Nigeria as a State Sanctioned Religious genocide

When are people going to realize praying does nothing? It might give you peace of mind and feel good to do it but thats it

killed 50 people

Matthew 5:10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven RIP to all those who lost their lives the wrath of God is upon the wicked gunmen

Disgusting

Tragic and so sad.

This is beyond religion and religious violence. Don't get it twisted please

Only in America, amirite?!
