Corpse of a member of boys scout of St Finbarrs Church |
There are reports of a bomb blast at St Finbarr's Catholic Church, Rayfield, Jos, Plateau State. A car bomb exploded inside the church premises, killing a few people, including some boys scout of St Finbarrs Church, who were outside the church when the explosion occurred. Eye witnesses who are tweeting say there's gunfire battle between Joint Task Force and suspects who set off explosions at the church. Innocent people who are trying to help injured victims are also being shot at.

this is absolute rubbish.Innocent life who they dont if his their helper are been killed and burnt like papers everyday, all in the name of boko haram
God PLEASE intervene.We need you in Nigeria.
God would punish these people. They say thier religion is that of peace, is this thier own type of peace? the time has come to fight back. Well, their generation would not witness development, they would sink into oblivion. Christians, i hope we all remember that Jesus used a whip to chase out traders from the synagogue. It is time to take the fight to these toothless coward who would not rot in hell!!!!
Short of words
It's a matter of time, I stay in jos plateau state, some years ago when this happened in Yeluwa where they kill xtians anyhow, the xtians got tired and wiped the whole community in one day... Our time is coming. There can be no victory without bloodshed
This is just terrible,may God help us all in jos. Amen!
I really think it's time for the Southerners and Northerner to go their separate ways so as to end these killings.
Now my motherland looks like the middle east where bombs go off at will. I hope the sponsors of the act gets to see what is going on. God help us.
God isn't going to come down and help pple, u guys should stop hiding behind religion and do sth!
This isn't Islam!
These guys are terrorists, pure and pure!
So sad!
why now? Jonathan pls now, dont settle for "Nigerians should get used to the bombings till it fizzles out"
do something pls. get SWAT team even if u have to bring them from america. ds is so sad
Llord Have Mercy on your children
My heart is so heavy right now with this news.
innocent lives being wasted every oda day.
Of what use is a President who is always paying condolence visits to the people whom he has failed to protect? Enough of these senseless blood shedding.
Is Islam really a religion of peace.why is it dat d r no xtain Terror groups all over d world.Nigeria is just a marriage of inconvienence with these Illitrates in d name of Muslims in d North.
Oh God! How long will we bear dis burden? I have some questions to ask...
- If GEJ is clueless, what about d Governors of d states in which these attacks take place, r dey also clueless?
- Considering d volatile state of Jos, one should expect dat there will be air-tight security and intelligence all over especially in churches, so how come this attack was not averted?
- Also, just last week, Boko Haram warned dat they will attack churches soon, isn't dat enough for dem to beef up security?
- Why r our govt and security outfits so reactive instead of proactive?
So many questions waiting for answers..
- JesseO
R.I.P..To those killed..so this people are still in it!!..they need to cut off the head of the snakes..their leaders..the Northern so called Leaders of disrepute!!
Linda seems that Susan Peters thingy has taken on a life out of its own..gone past 600 posts..don't think I've ever seen that on here...
Tears! May God help this bloody country!
May their souls rest In peace. The truth is that these people are being backed by some powerful Nigerians, and they have An agenda other than peace or whatever they proclaim. Accountability has never been. Strong suit of Nigerian politics other wise like someone rightly said, the. Governors of these states cannot say they don't know what's going on, why is there never any information? I don't get Nigeria some times, and the next generation is just as scary. May God be with us and comfort those families. Amen

God have mercy.............. :(
It is not a religious fight at all,this people r only provoking one christians so they can cause chaos.be careful how u judge and make comments.only God almighty knows all
May God come to our aid,and be with those who have lost their life in this Boko rubbish
O Jesus, my heart is bleeding right now. These people are human beings for christsake. There bk people should please grow a conscience. May their souls rest in peace. Am a Catholic, its disheartening to know that we are now targets.......should we stop going to church?
oh God manifest your self,show us u are the God of yesterday today and forever,distroy our emenies.
Smh ! God pls arise in your anger and pay these pple back. Don't allow dem to turn U̶̲̥̅̊я church to a № go area, wch is wat they want. So christians will keep away frm the church wch ia part of why U̶̲̥̅̊ sacrifieced U̶̲̥̅̊я life on the cross. By den it may be too late. Subdue the devil and their cohorts! Amen!
Did I hear you right? No xtian terror groups? Where were you when xtians were caught in Jos, Bauchi, Gombe and Suleja trying to bomb churches? If you don't know what to say, it is better to shut up! You must not comment. Simple. Except of course if you are part of the grand design to incite hate and violence among the masses.
Am in tears, u wake up 1 sunday moring going 2 kip the sabbath day in his very own prescence,only for evil 2 break loose cus a stich wasn't in place 2 save nine, now thousand have died ,2 wat avail..... I wish I was a witch or have supernatural powers, I wud kill tis pple all @ once.
Pathetic... Naija is finished!
The art of war is not the wish to avoid defeat. Rather, it is d wisdom in learning to choose one's battles wisely and relying not on unseen powers for destruction of d enemies. I hearby call on all Xtains to rise up in arms and protect urselves. Hoping dat dis evil men wud just wake up someday and stop bombing is utter balderdash. Ask urselves, Wat wud have been d fate of d isrealites if they acted lyk weaklings wen they enemies attacked them?
RIP for those who lost their life. But one question...what is wrong with this country Nigeria....We have biggest churches but still remain the worst country for ,,drug traficking, 419, corrupt politicians, bad roads, no light, armed robbery, kidnapping, rapes,Auto accidents ,bad police, now is bombing og churches....It's hard to accept but the worls will be a better place without this name Nigeria ...GOD HELP
D worst any nigerian citizen wil do 2 hm/her self iz 2 vote badluck jonathan second tym bcos d worst wil happen if he rules again.may b by dat tym nigeria wil b sold 2 d white men.linda wel dn u hear ?
This is so sad,its high time xtians strt fighting back this wicked and heartless people who call theselves muslims!we can't continue to take this bullshit frm them anymore...RIP to d departed souls
Save us oh lord
When will dis rubbish stop,God pls hlp us cos dis is nw becoming a norm....R.I.P to d lost souls!!!!!!

It's 2012, being ignorant stopped being cute. There are Christian terrorists all over the world. Grow a brain please. This is NOT about Islam and Christianity, this is about our people being murdered. All perpetrators should be brought to book. The president has failed us.
What has Jonathan got to do with this? You are a moron.
@The first anonymous.... thank God say man no be God and thank goodness people like you will NEVER be rich enough or be good enough o run this country. Just read ur damn comment again....how are you better than the terrorists ? Shame on you.
Amen. They use Christianity to cover up their cowardice.
Come, come, come....shut up!
May their families have the supernatural strenght to shoulder this.
One step forward, ten leaps and hurdles backwards. Wickedness.
Bring them from America? Are u for real? So now Americans are no longer so meddle-some eh? Fight your own battle, we have ours up here.
When I talked before....it was as though I was just though,na just talk.Shebi my hate is misdirected...Well...at least,this bombings have a very very CLEAR direction...
This one na morning time...e never start at all.Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria.Mscheeeeeeeeeeew.

For God sack, i tink dis country of urs is bigger tham dis devilish act, its time for good ppl of dis country to ask d northern governors d blood of those innocent ppl killed in thier state.
My heart bleeds. May Almighty God console their families...so painful. Ndo nu rii nne.
BTW, Linda Ikeji, where's ur apology to us? I take exception to how u referred to & disrepected ur readers in that Susan Village-vampire Peters apology. It was hurtful and portrays u in a very bad light! Are u an ass-licker?
not again. I wish i have a solution to this boko haram.may the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace, Amen
Jonathan should SERIOUSLY step up against these hausa/Arab extremists who want to take over. Spending money for security should be one of the top priority.
It's not about hiding behind religion. The reality is, we man don't have control of evil people, this evil world. So, the best we can do is turn to the ONE who has power and control of everything. That been said, I know God is in control and will give them justice especially when you mess with HIS people.
OMG!!! what is this country becoming?! Jona needs to do everything he can within his power to stop these people. It has exceeded the limit, words are not enuff to console us anymore. He needs to act! God pls fight this battle with us!
plss we shud b more open minded, n ask ourselfs wat d real problm is,its not muslims who ar bombi,its d government, dis is just political n den dey hide under d cover of religion...recentli sme christians were caught tryin to bomb a church,wat wud u call dat,mydear..evil pple ar jst using this to creat problm btw xtrians n muslims.
very soon, very very soon i will be a suicide bomber, i mean it.
i will make sure i go with atleast 500hundred muslims, i mean it, this is not bragging.
it is not religious war, it is not religious war, this people are killing christians, it is not religious war, it is not religious war, our numbers is reducing by the day; enough is enough.
i will take the bull by the horn sooooonest; i mean soooonest. mark my word. i stay in kaduna i know how they operate, i know which mosque to get 500 of them. period.
Hausas, Ibos and Ijaws have finished Nigeria pata pata. They bomb, kidnap and ritualize other Nigerians for their own comfort. Fear them o.

God hav mercy on us in ds country. We jst need to pray more for d country.
God hav mercy on us in ds country. We jst need to pray more for d country.
what re we still waiting for, isn't time to split this country and save us from all these embarrassment.
This issue of boko haram is just a closer evidence to those that are yet to come to Christ, that there is no other religeon but xtianity.if we are to talk of power is it mental,phisical or in any way you want to measure it its the xtians that have the total endowment but we will never shed any blood because killing is not in our doctrine but we know that it does not take our GOD the almighty JEHOVA anything to seize their breathings like HE did to the assyrian troops and their leader against king hezekial of Juda in the HOLY BIBLE lets wait and see because i know divine judgement will imminently descend on them.
So wat r u waitn for??? Ode oshi. Mamatunde
Am so afraid to attend service , last time I went was looking left , right , and backwards , everyone was a suspect , I was a time keeper all becos of book haram , decided for my peace of mind and for me to see my children through life , am staying at home for now , why do we have a leader that is clueless ,why did we Christians advocate for a Christian when it is so obvious that he cannot step up as a leader , how can someone be held up in aso rock pretending not to be abreast with happenings in this country , why did God decide to punish us with this kind of man .
#dead
The only good side of this story is that it is happening in Jos.Gowan's place, I suppose. One Nigeria my foot.
@babeontop This one you just dey insult peoples comments abeg go find work jobless girl. No be jonathan be president? Is he not supposed to make sure our security is beefed up? Abeg go siddon jor.

Mumu...u are the ass licker? Wat apology? Will it add money to ur bank acct? You pple should be real linda is as bad as susan..susan has every right to react the way she did..all linda does is to incite hate.
Ur father is the badluck,shut ur trap if u have nothing to say,what has jonathan done? He is trying his best all we are saying is that his best isn't good enough afterall he is better than all our past president, y'all shld free him jor..
I am sick of this isn't Islam. I don't see other Muslims condemning it. Anyway boko want a reason for religious war but there is so much people can take. Bloody fundamentalists.
Who uses Christianity to cover up abeg? Were the bombers not Muslim?
All powerful yet merciful God, look wit pity upon our country Nigeria.We look to you for solution to this problem of bombing, people having no value for lives you Lord alone created. It haff pass our human capability. Give our leaders knowledge to a permanant successful solution.May the souls of the departed rest in peace.Amen
ur so f**kin rude @ babeontop guess u have nothing o paste dats y...........asswipe
Violence begot violence. The worse is yet to come if smthing does not happen real soon.
As a xtian i do not support blowing up mosques cos d problem wont be solved. We should fish dem out. but if a muslim tries to kill me, most def will take their life
Blame it all on the man who budgeted over N900bn for security yet insecurity has increased exponentially. Blame it all on the man who said you must learn to live with bomb blasts. Blame it all on the numb skull who is too scared to go after the sponsors of the animalistic sect. Do you believe that Sokoto & Qaqa haven’t named even a single sponsor since they’ve been in detention for about 2months now? They must have named sponsors; even the SSS said Sokoto’s call log showed he had been communicating with “top politicians”. Why haven’t those men been arrested or atleast summoned for questioning? Are they above the law? Haven’t they querried Sokoto to explain what business he has in Borno state govt lodge in Abuja, or we should settle for the Borno govt’s official denial of the man without further investigations? We all celebrated the re-arrest of Sokoto, but after all the jamboree what has come out of his arrest? Have you observed that in spite of several arrests, nobody has been punished for all these bombings & killings except a repentant former member who willingly turned himself in? From the foregoing above, suffice it to say that GEJ knows the sponsors, has sufficient evidence but is doing nothing about it. Perhaps the sponsors are bigger than the country. This man has shown no qualities of leadership. Nigerian Christians are still playing naivete that borders on self-immolation. The doctrine of ‘love your enemy” and “do good to those who revile you” do not hold in today’s Nigeria. Or to let your pants go as well when your coat is ripped off your back is another ridiculous anachronism. Modern Christianity must evolve with the times to save the noble faith from obsolescence, irrelevance and ultimate extinction. It was bequeathed to this generation by the faithful who laid down their lives in the face of persecution and Islamic assaults on the Christian world. Had they sat on their hands there would be no Christianity to inherit.
as we have all assumed,a MUSLIM did this for Islamic cause;this person must be a muslim fanatic to accept to settle for a suicide bomber of a church. there is no way he would disguise that he would not be noticed before entering a church premises,but the said bomber found himself in the church and executed his plans. let us not be fooled,some christians re also helpin these guys to execute their plans,this is not religious i guess ethnicity probs
God have mercy on us!!!!! looking at this picture,i see no remorse or hurt among those standing there,instead everyone's trying to snap and be d first to send pictures out. Too too bad!
god pls help us dis is 2 mch
Hmmm...these are potential leaders whose lives have been cut short by some soulless,satan-infected,blood thirsty and darkness-filled men who believe they are fighting for their religion;God is not in this religion. I think the unequel yoke or the unholy wedlock between the north and south should be annulled.Since the govt cannot do anything, christians should rise up and protect their lives,evenif it means carrying arms to defend themselves.It is enough!!!
We should stop deceiving ourselves Islam is not a religion of peace it is stated in the Koran that they should subdue the unbelievers amongst them(esp.jews & Christians) thru force n if they don't succeed they should kill them all when will Christians realize that d Muslims are never their friends and do something....they are barbaric esp. those Muslims in d north too many brain-washed-illiterates amongst them.i owe no apologies to anybody
Babeontop or what do u call ur self......God punish u ToLoToLo.
It's not a religious tin my foot! How many mosques have bn affected snc this issue started? Yes some christians were caught tryin to plant a bomb in some states how true is dat?those pple could have bn framed or were under duress for all we kno....these BASTARDS keep killin xtians like they can create a single hair n the xtians are doin nthn abt it! Snc our leaders have shown dat dey cnt protect us..I tink it's high time the xtians start retaliatin..why churches? These idiots are renderin so many innocent kids orphans,for how long will this continue? How long?they are killing our siblings,our parents,our children and we are doin nthn abt it!this is jus so sad...they have no single respect for human lives...
Ehn start attacking now,shebi its wat ur father ayo of CAN wants. CAN is d mastermind behind this new evil boko haram. Panicked just cos of islamic banking. The thing is no muslim believes its a true muslim that carries out these attacks so just as how u rave n rant n abuse muslims,there belief is as solid that CAN is behind the atrocities of so called boko jst cause they can no longer live with muslims. So tell me,will there ever be a way forward?
I have read it in more than three National dailies an allegation that it was Professor Jerry Gana who was the one who bail Muhammad Yusuf when he was arrested by security agencies. As weighty as this allegation is, Jerry Gana has never deny it publically. This led us to another important question. What is the relationship between a top Christian Association of Nigeria Member and Leader of radical Islamic group? Are they family relations, friends or business associates? I am curious to know if there is also possible links between some Christians recently arrested trying to Burn a church with Boko Haram Christian friend. Shehu Sani was able to facilitate a meeting between late Fugu family and Obasanjo a while ago during which Obasanjo took a list from the group and promised to get back to them. Did Obasanjo tell the President before he went and did he report back to the authority? The man who received Obasanjo was killed hours after the meeting and ever since nothing is heard of that initiative again. Could it be possible that some forces who wanted to close that window carried out the killing? The SSS paraded some amputees after the UN building attack, where are they? Has anybody heard anything that was declared wanted by the SSS since then? The president on Sept 3 said the government had strong leads on masterminds of terror, where are they now? Which party has been described as “a nest of killers” by one of their own since 2001?
GOD ur ar nt aslept i believ arise n shin 4 u said ur nt a sleepin God
