news from nigeria
Violence breaks out between Christians and Muslims in Nigeria: At least 50 people have been killed this week in violent clashes between Christians and Muslims in central Nigeria’s volatile Plateau State. According to local authorities, 14 of them were killed when Christian youths attacked Muslims as they gathered to celebrate the end of Ramadan. The Plateau State straddles the boundary between Nigeria’s mostly Muslim north and largely Christian south. From Nigeria west to Somalia, religious tensions between Christians and Muslims are escalating.

Tomorrow, God willing, I will be at Asaba for my lecture. I travel monthly outside my state for public preaching. I am always remembering you all in my daily prayers. Please remember me also in your prayers for the rheumatism in my legs is getting worse. I manage to move about with faith but am tired of drinking medicine. I am not afraid of death but who will lead my Ecclesia for going out and coming in is what I fear. Will God bring somebody who understands our Faith better than myself, is my prayer, so that Enugu Eclesia will not close.

Greetings in the Name of Jesus. I thank God for the strength he gave you in producing this New Testament version of the Bible. Many Brethren and Sisters admire this model and I request more copies to enable the remaining Brethren and Sisters to have theirs. I enclose a picture of the Brothers and Sisters of Ikwueke Ecclesia. More copies are still coming from Okwe Ecclesia.
