Catholic Authorities: Over 100 Christians Killed, 90,000 Displaced in Nigeria
Source excerpt
The Catholic Diocese of Wukari has raised an urgent alarm over what it describes as relentless and systematic attacks by suspected Fulani militants across Southern Taraba State, leaving more than 100 people dead, thousands injured, and over 90,000 Catholics displaced since September 2025. In a press briefing held Thursday at the Catholic Secretariat in Jalingo, diocesan leaders detailed months of coordinated assaults on predominantly Christian farming communities in Chanchanji Ward of Takum Local Government Area, and parts of Ussa and Donga Local Government Associations.
