Femi Fani-Kayode,
former minister of aviation has alleged that more Christians have been killed
under the President Muhammadu Buhari administration than any other in the
history of Nigeria.
The former minister
said this while lamenting about the recent killing of Christians in the
country, especially in the Northern region.
According to him,
Northern Nigeria was presently the most dangerous place for a Christian to live
on earth, adding that the region had become a slaughterhouse for Christians.
In the past few
days, some communities in Kaduna State have experienced fresh attacks, leading
to the loss of lives.
Over the years,
Kajuru Local Government Area of Kaduna has become susceptible to attacks and
killings from alleged herdsmen.
Recall that some
unknown gunmen suspected to be herdsmen had last week Wednesday attacked Tudu
village in Doka, Kufana District of the local government.
The gunmen were said
to have killed nine persons and set many houses ablaze.
Reacting,
Fani-Kayode described those that deny that more Christians have been murdered
in this government as “the sponsors of the genocidal maniacs and mass
murderers.”
According to him,
the attempt by the Presidency to deny the crimes against humanity is
irresponsible yet expected.
He said this in a
series of tweets on his official Twitter page on Sunday night.
The post reads:”The
humiliation, persecution and marginalisation of Christians in Nigeria over the
last 5 years is self-evident. The ethnic and religious cleansing, wholesale
slaughter of northern Christians is undeniable.
“Those that deny
this are the sponsors of the genocidal maniacs and mass murderers.
Nnamdi Kanu, Asari
Dokubo, Anniko Briggs, Shola Salako, Tony Nnandi, Baron Roy, Gani Adams, CAN,
leaders of the MB and the South, Church leaders, Christian clerics, yours truly
and millions of others that have pointed out this reality over the last few years
have the truth.
“The attempt by the
Presidency to deny these heinous crimes against humanity, though shameless and
irresponsible, is to be expected.
“To say that
Christians are not being slaughtered in Nigeria is like saying Hitler and the
Nazis never murdered 6 million Jews during the holocaust
“Worse still it is
like saying that pigs, cows and goats are not being slaughtered in abattoirs.
Northern Nigeria particularly has become nothing but a slaughterhouse and a
graveyard for Christians.”
He mentioned that
the Northern region has also been described by Donald Trump and numerous
international organisations as the most dangerous place on earth for
Christian’s to live.
“More Christians
have been murdered under the watch of Muhammadu Buhari than at any other time
in our history outside of the civil war,” his tweet added.
