NIGERIA — Jihadists Refuse to Release Abducted Woman
Islamic militants have been destroying homes and killing or kidnapping Christians in Kaduna State, Nigeria for years.
Church leaders request prayer for a woman abducted in early March of 2024 in Kaduna State, Nigeria, from an area with a majority-Christian population.
“Fulani jihadis opened sporadic gunfire on the entire area,” said a front-line worker. “And while Mrs. Musa Baraka was running to safety, in the confusion, the militants picked her up and shot her 32-year-old son.” The son survived and underwent surgery for his wounds in early May. Mrs. Musa Baraka has been living in a remote bush area with her captors since she was taken. “Only God can release her from the kidnappers. But our God is able!” the front-line worker said.
