Christian Persecution In Nigeria: A Threat To Global Stability

-


 Infallible reports from 2025 and early 2026 indicate that Nigeria has become one of the deadliest countries in the world to live in as a Christian, with persecution and genocide driven by extremist groups such as Boko Haram, ISWAP, Lakurawa Jihadists, and radicalized Fulani herdsmen. These atrocious activities against Christians take place mostly in the northern and Middle Belt regions of Nigeria such as Plateau and Benue States. Christian persecution in Nigeria poses a significant threat to global peace and stability. The country has undoubtedly become one of the most dangerous places for Christians, with about 850, 000 killed in the past 20 years, and over 5 million persons displaced within the same period in Plateau and Benue States. Over 6, 000 brainwashed extremist groups and Fulani jihadists drawn from 7 African countries (Libya, Senegal, Gambia, Chad, Mali, Niger Republic, and Nigeria) under the auspices of Miyetti Allah Herdsmen Association, by late President Muhammadu Buhari (the Fulani Satan in human form) in April 2014, and commissioned in Kaduna, perpetrated brutal attacks on Christians. These invasions led to arbitrary killings of innocent Christians, burning of Churches with worshippers trapped in them, abduction of worshippers and raping the women in the pristine forests for years, slaughtering and displacing vulnerable villagers. 

This evidence is not a local issue or imaginary exaggeration, it has far-reaching global implications. Unchecked or unabated extremism can easily mutate into a daring monster that may be very difficult to tame, destabilizing West African countries and beyond. Nigeria's strategic location and teeming population make it a key player in regional security. When extremists target Christians, it obviously emboldens other groups, fueling a vicious circle of violence and intolerance.

The international community should act in a timely manner to prevent Nigeria from becoming a hub for global terrorism. The US has designated Nigeria a "Country of Particular Concern", and conducted airstrikes against extremists targets in the North-East and North-West geopolitical zones of Nigeria. However, more needs to be done to protect Christians and address the root of the violence. 

Globally, stability and peace depend on protecting the rights of minority and preventing extremism in all its facets and appearances. If the Nigerian Christians are left vulnerable, it may embolden other faceless fundamentalist groups, threatening worldwide peace in its wake. The world should act fast to safeguard Christians in Nigeria and ensure global security. If the international community had read the handwriting on the wall and intervened swiftly in Rwanda and Kosovo respectively, the large population of people who died in the crises would have been saved. A stitch in time saves nine!

Menace Of Parental Estrangement In The World

Parental estrangement is a painful and complex issue that affects millions of families across all latitudes of the world, with disastrous implications for emotional distress, social isolation, loneliness, and long-lasting consequences for elderly parents, and their adult children. Wherever you go, you will see lonely elderly parents who lack food, clothes, shelter, and healthcare delivery services. Their adult sons and daughters are in the cities of their own countries, or have even migrated to other far away countries in quest of greener pastures to survive. Their hungry and helpless aged parents at the rural areas are depending on them for survival, whereas their children in the cities are earnestly struggling to succeed in the face of harsh economic conditions. Many of these adult children in the cities who have elderly parents at home are unemployed. Many of them receive very small wages at the end of the month. Their wages are unable to meet the financial needs of the nuclear fami...

Coping With A Resistant And Toxic Partner In The Family

-
Image
 Family dynamics are complex and challenging issues, especially when dealing with a resistant and toxic husband or wife. The emotional toll of living under the same roof with someone who is resistant to change and toxic in conducts and behaviours can be very painful and frustrating, affecting not only the involved spouse but also the children and other family members. A resistant and toxic partner can exhibit behaviours such as emotional manipulation, gaslighting, and blame-shifting. A resistant and toxic husband or wife is always right ( in his/ her own evaluation and reasoning), unwilling indeed to take responsibility of his/ her actions. Rather than coming down from his/ her high horse to apologize for his/ her fault, he/ she will begin to shift the blame to the partner or any other member of the family. He or she feels that he/ she cannot do anything wrong or faulty. This behaviour can be incredibly damaging, leading to feelings of anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem....

Effective Principles Of Co-parenting Children After Divorce

-

        When a marriage ends up in divorce, the most significant challenge for many parents is not the end of the relationship in particular, but the beginning of a new chapter in co-parenting their children. The act of co-parenting requires parents to put aside their differences (which they were unable to reconcile to save the marriage) and work together to raise their children. Divorce indeed has an unspeakable impact on children's emotional, social, and psychological well-beings. Children of divorced partners often experience a litany of emotions: sadness, abandonment, anger, guilt, anxiety, and depression.  They may struggle to adjust to living in two separate households, dealing with conflicting parental expectations, and grappling with the emotional fall-out of their parents' separation. Infallible research has shown that children of divorced partners are more likely to experience behavioral problems, decreased academic performance, and emotional dist...
