(Worthy News) – Suspected Islamic militants threaten to attack churches in Nigeria’s northern state of Zamfara unless they stop worship services and close their facilities, Christians said Thursday.
In a letter to Christians, unnamed militants reportedly issued “an ultimatum” demanding that churches in the state close within the next three years.
The threat against Zamfara’s churches and individuals comes after a similar warning was sent to Christians in Nigeria’s Plateau State in late October, Christians recalled.
