Across Nigeria, Christians are dying

The Fulani herdsmen's invasion into peaceful communities of Nigeria has created a disturbing pattern of death and desecration; to this day none of the culprits have been brought to justice. Under the guise of an ancient livestock herding tradition, this group of people wage a war against the Christian population of the entire country. To protect their livestock, cattle farmers have graduated from using sticks, daggers, and clubs to using sophisticated, brutal weapons like double-barrel shotguns and AK-47s.

Scholars the world over have been connecting this rise in violence to the Boko Haram insurgency, which has waged since 2009. Others wonder if this is a secret agenda aimed at wiping out non-Islamic populations in order to spread Islam to the conquered territories.

In this harrowing investigation, Dr. Darlington Akaiso asks the questions no one else is willing to ask.

- Why are Christian churches being targeted by the Fulani herdsmen?

- Could this be an ethnic cleansing, with Christians as the primary target?

- Can anything be done to stop the brutal murder of innocent Christians?

- How did guns in the first place make its way to the grazing farmlands of Nigeria?
