The Christian Rights Agenda (CRA) has revealed that over 80 communities in Benue, Plateau, and Borno States have been seized by Fulani terrorists and ISWAP insurgents.

Citing preliminary reports from its field operatives, CRA said these communities “have fallen under the control of terrorists determined to entrench violence, religious intolerance, and total anarchy across Nigeria.”

In a statement issued on Sunday, Reverend Kallamu Musa Dikwa, Secretary-General of CRA, disclosed that officials have been deployed to the affected regions to gather first-hand information on the devastation Christians are suffering.

“This is unacceptable,” CRA stated.

The organisation said it is compiling up-to-date data to fully document the extent of the persecution, particularly in northern Nigeria.

It also expressed grave concern over the renewed wave of coordinated attacks in the last three weeks, which have led to massive loss of lives, destruction of property, and displacement of thousands in Benue and Plateau States.

While acknowledging the directive by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for security forces to intensify operations against terrorists, CRA warned that such measures must go beyond cosmetic gestures. The group insisted that security agencies must be held accountable
