50 burnt bodies discovered in pastor's house in Jos

Security agents said they discovered the bodies of at least 50 people, mostly women and children, who were burnt to death in the house of a pastor of the Church of Christ in Nigeria (COCIN) in Matse village, Riyom LGA of Plateau State. Family members of the victims said the people burnt at the pastor's home were people who ran into the home for safety after fulani herdsmen invaded their village on Saturday morning, killing over 20 people.

The killers followed these people to the church house, set the house ablaze and prevented people from leaving by standing at the exit and shooting at people who came out through the door.

Sometimes It's hard to believe all this is happening in Nigeria. Dreadful news we hear about Rwanda, Somalia, Liberia etc is now happening in Nigeria. Really sad!
