Boko Haram reportedly ‘beheading’ Christians in Gwoza

According to reports, Boko Haram militants are beheading young men in the Christian community in Gwoza, the Borno town that the insurgent group recently took over and declared an Islamic caliphate.

Sources from the town claim that Christian men who refuse to convert to Islam are being beheaded while the women are being forced into marriages with the insurgents.
"It is quite clear that terrorism has no friend, but it is abundantly clear that the Christians are worst hit. The whole town and the Parish rectory have been occupied by the terrorists. So many structures and items have been vandalized. Dozens have been killed and a lot of church structures have been burnt down. Christians in the town are really in a terrible situation, a moment of great persecution. Christian men were caught and beheaded, the women were forced to become Muslims and were taken as wives to the terrorists.” Rev. Fr. Gideon Obasogie, the social communications director of the catholic diocese of Maiduguri said. Continue...
“It might surprise you to know that no one knows the state of affairs in this terrorist zone. The houses of Christians that have fled are now occupied by the ‘haramists’. Their cars are used by the terrorists,” Rev Obasogie said.
He also said Boko Haram sympathizers in Gwoza showed the militants homes belonging to Christians and even showed them where some of the Christians went to hide when the killing began. They were fished out and killed.

So now they are following "ISIS" style? And people keep trying to tell us this has nothing to do with Religion? I think the should be an Air Strike and a Militry Ops to level down any ground occupied by Boko Haram... This really is very SAD.

This BH guys kill randomly.We all have heard stories where they kill a christian dominated community today,and move down to an islamic community.They kill pastors and also kill imams.This report may stir up religious intolerance and once we buy it,the BH must have won in not only killing us physically but breaking our trust and tolerance for one another.A unity that's already shaking.We can't afford to let them win over our conscience.They have no right over that.

Boko Haram and indeed all terrorism aspiring, supporting and sympathetic muslims. I have a word for you, you think you are serving Allah by killing folks who refuse your satanic religion, but you have failed already. Many Nigerian muslim guys I've seen in UK now claim to be Christians because they are too ashamed to identify with the religion of murder and violence. Got a whole bunch of them actively going to church. Keep killing Christians and keep making your religion scary. I've always said that it's better for me to be a satanist than for me to be a muslim.

Expect the news media to focus on the plight of the women only. These media are so misandric they will not say more than a thing or two about the men being beheaded.

When the beheadings make the news, the men will be called "people" or "Christians" (just like the title of this post). For example, the news may sound like: ABOUT 100 PEOPLE WERE BEHEADED. THESE INNOCENT CHRISTIANS WERE GIVING THE OPTION OF CONVERTING...It's like "men and boys" are F words that should be censored in the media.

The forced marriage however, will get the bulk of the reporting. This blatant sexism disgusts me.

To put it in perspective, Boko Haram has been kidnapping men and boys way before and after the Chibok issue. How much attention has the media given to that? Let your conscience and common sense judge you.

The delay in approving comments and my schedule may make me not respond to negative replies. If you feel like having me hurt your feelings, @siesy

To all Christians in Nigeria who are still safe, outside the regions of Boko Haram, don't feel secure. Don't go about as though everything in Nigeria is ok, don't go about as though life revolves you. There is a war, there is terror, there is death stalking our country. This is the time for us to be sober, to wake up from our slumber and our greed and spiritual indifference. Now while you still can, come back to God and know Him personally.

Let the threat of Boko Haram and the deadliness of Ebola Virus force you to seek the face of the Lord while He is still near. Life is becoming unpredictable by the hour, you can't afford to live anyhow anymore. Draw near to God, seek Him while He may be found. Come back to the source of Life, search the Bible, He wants to reveal Himself to you.

And please remember the persecuted Christians in prayers and support. Speak to your church leaders about contributing to the care of displaced Christians in the North. This is not the time to give tithes or seed offerings out of greed or fear, but a time to collect offerings for the support of widows and orphans. Please Christians, wake up, the times are evil.

End time persecution just as the Bible stated clearly. I just hope christians wake up from their sleep and to smell the cofee, but by Gods grace, we will overcome.I will be waiting to see if muslims will strongly protest what is happenning or sitback and remain quiet as always to say islam is a religion of peace while some will just remain on the fence waiting and keeping quiet for a chaotic atmosphere to help them choose who to support just like the muslim residents In Gwoza community waited to be used.

And some idiots called muslims will still be arguing that Boko Haram members are not muslims.Ask yourselves thia following questions:
Why do attacks on mosques are never successful?
Why do attacks on Buhari and Emir of Borno were not successful?
Chiboks girls that eacaped from Sambisia forest are all muslims...why?
Attacks on chriatians and churches are always successful
..why?
Why are they beheading only the christians in Gwoza?
Simple answer: the attacks on mosques,buhari and their emir are just a mere diversion/propaganda.
Islam is never a religion of peace.God save your children in Gwoza.

Unknown said...

aunty Linda,, i am ashamed that a person of your caliber will take side in this type of issue, firstly NO ONE IS SAFE FROM BOKOHARAM, only when you become bokoharam,, havent u saw videos of them beheading muslims ???? Secondly Gwoza is a Muslim community, but you Haven't sympathize with the people displaced, with the EMIR THAT NARROWLY ESCAPED. you are drawing attention to them BEHEADING CHRISTIANS. IN BOKO HARAM DEFINITION OF ISLAM, WE ARE ALL CHRISTIANS ONLY IF WE JOIN BOKOHARAM WE WILL BE SAFE,, SOO LETS JOIN HANDS AND PRAY FOR GOD TO DEFEAT THEM, BECAUSE NOBODY IS SAFE AS LONG AS THEY ARE THERE.

Hope the president can read this. Is it a sin to be a christian? Or why can't these blood thirsty extremist islamist let God fight for himself. If Jonathan himself don't have any hidden agenda, he should make sure that those mentioned by the foreign negotiators are taken into custody and investigate thoroughly.

I wonder what goes on in the mind of people who kill others in the name of God, I think they are clinically mad! And the irony is that these guys believed that they will be rewarded with virgins in paradise for the barbaric acts that they commit.Allah Akbar indeed!what an infantile belief, shows they are still primitive in thoughts and actions.
