Whilst many in the West are primarily concerned with their own issues, their own nation’s economic and political failures and the threat of violent jihad to the residents of London, Paris, Berlin, Rome and elsewhere, we should not ignore what has become ‘the forgotten jihad’ in Africa. Of course it’s completely natural that those in the West should primarily consider their own problems, their own strengths and weaknesses, that doesn’t mean we should forget those elsewhere in the world who are suffering under the jackboot of jihad.
How many front page articles in the more popular newspapers, what we in the UK call ‘the red tops’ about this forgotten jihad in places like Northern Nigeria? I can almost completely guarantee that there will not be many. What’s happening to the poor people, especially the Christian ones, in Northern Nigeria is monstrous. We in the West at least have some peace, those in Northern Nigeria and other places across Africa from the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean do not get any.
Morning Star News, a Christian news outlet (h/t ROP) is carrying a story about an attack by Muslim Fulani tribesmen on a village full of Christians.
They said:
" Slaughters of Christians continued in Plateau state, Nigeria on Friday (May 8) as Fulani herdsmen killed 13 Christians in Bassa County, sources said.
Muslim Fulani gunmen killed the Christians in a pre-dawn attack on Ngbra Zongo community in Kwall District, said Joseph Chudu Yonkpa, spokesperson of area Miango communities in a statement issued in Jos.
Among those killed were three pregnant women, he said.
“The attack has left dozens of other Christians injured, hundreds of others displaced,” Yonkpa said.
Resident Lawrence Zongo said Christians in the community have suffered prior attacks."

It is shameful that so many people in Africa have suffered so much from multiple attacks by Jihadis but most people in the West have no idea it is happening. Our fellow human beings are being slaughtered en masse in Africa by the followers of an ideology that is also going to be a major threat to us in the West as well as in Africa, yet hardly anybody in the West knows what is happening in Africa with regards to these jihad attacks. We should no longer ignore the forgotten jihad just because it’s Africans as victims because that in my view is breaking the Biblical rule that all life is sacred and all life should be where possible protected.
