While i was in one of the parishes of the Redeemed church yesterday, one the scriptures used for prayer against those who are disrupting the peace of the nation is 2 Chronicles 20.22-23.It reads thus 'And when they began to sing and to praise, the Lord set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten.'For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another'
Therefore later in the day, as i heard about this development in the north,it was amazing.Let us continue to pray to our God for He will surely give us victory in the end.

Fulani Herdsmen |
At least 30 ethnic Fulani
herdsman were killed by Boko Haram militants in northern Nigerian last weekend
when they raided the village of Alau in Borno state “One of the herdsmen escaped and
confirmed to us that he is the only survivor,” Amadu Kusuri, the northeast
coordinator of the Fulani Miyetti Allah Association, said Thursday. The
Islamist insurgents also kidnapped women and children and stole livestock in
the attack on April 24 , Babangida Ali, the
brother of one of those killed in
Alau, said by phone.
While Nigeria says it’s making
progress in the battle against Boko Haram, which has waged a violent seven-year
campaign to impose its version of Islamic law on Africa’s most populous nation,
the group continues to carry out massacres in remote areas and suicide bombings
in towns and cities.
