The North has become a slaughterhouse for Christians since Buhari came to power – Fani-Kayode

The former minister of aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has stated that the Northern part of Nigeria had become a slaughterhouse and a graveyard for Christians under the watch of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Fani-Kayode made this known in a series of tweets on Sunday condemning the Buhari-led government.

The former minister lamented 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 more Christians have been murdered under the watch of President Muhammadu Buhari than any other time in the history of the nation, outside in the civil war.

The tweet read, “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.”
“It has also become a place that has been rightly described as “the most dangerous place on earth for Christians to live” by US President Donald Trump and numerous international organisations and world leaders.

“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.
“What a horrendous & morbid legacy that is & every person that helped to bring him to power in 2015 & continues to support him has a share of that blood on their hands. Those of us that are Christians shall NEVER forget this & all the denials in the world cannot change it.

“Such patently false & manifestly irresponsible mendacities & denials are to be expected from a Presidency that is complicit in these killings, whose hands are dripping with blood & who favour, support & seek to cover the tracks of those that delight in snuffing out.

“Christian souls & shedding Christian blood. Whether they wish to admit it or not, the truth is that more Christians have been maimed, slaughtered, butchered, tortured &displaced under Buhari’s watch than at ANY other time in our beleaguered history outside of the civil war.

“What a morbid & horrendous legacy that is & all the denials in the world cannot change it or wipe the slate clean. I hope that Buhari and his rag-tag and tattered mob of pitiful jesters, ignorant cheerleaders, and sociopathic sadists are proud of themselves

“Yet one thing is clear: that the Living God sees and knows all and, in His own good time, He shall deliver us from the cruel hands of these Egyptians and avenge us!
