The situation is getting clearer. The dreaded Islamic militant group, Boko Haram has claimed responsibility for the bombings of three different churches in Kaduna on Sunday, that led to the death of between 40 and 72 persons (depending on the record you choose to believe), including little children and women.
Spokesman of the sect, Abu Qaqa started the statement by saying, “Today Almighty Allah has given us victory against Christian Churches in Kaduna and Zaria which led to the deaths of many Christians and security operatives.”
Giving their reason for the latest massacre of Christians, Abu Qaqa said it was done to avenge the past k*llings of Muslims as well as the desecration of Mosques in Zonkwa, Yelwan Shendam, Tafawa Balewa, where they said Mosques were turned into brothels and drinking joints, while Christians continue to carry on with impunity and government support.
NEWSMEN gathered from the press release the Islamic sect sent to selected media houses that for peace to reign in the land (Northern Nigeria) all Christians must convert to Islam. The statement also said that Allah has tasked all Muslims in Quran chapter 9 verse 29 to continue to attack Jews and Christians who refused to believe in him and his messenger, Prophet Mohammed.
It also said that attacks against Christian children and women will continue, because security agents now attack Muslim women and children.
No official reaction from either the Presidency or the Security agencies on this latest threat by Boko Haram that all Christians should either convert to Islam or face attack.
