Many Christians were killed during the Nigerian elections

Stop Christians from voting in elections.

According to the Morningstar Star, during the elections, four Christians were killed by Fulani militants in Benue State.

Kish Hyuk and her two children were attacked by Fulani attackers on their way home after voting.

They were buried in a mass grave, and the people are preparing for another attack by this group.

Prior to the general election in which Bola Ame Tinubu won the presidential race, Pastor Hyuk had preached to the people in public about the election. He had encouraged the people to participate in the elections and make a wise decision regarding the selection of candidates.

According to local sources, Fulani militants in areas where Christians are a minority and the candidates are mostly Muslims, resort to violence and killing to prevent Christians from participating in the elections.

Seven Christian minority communities in Borno state were denied the right to vote for their preferred presidential candidate, Peter Obi, a local worker said on condition of anonymity.

Obi is a Christian and ran for Labor with one of his Muslim rivals.

During last week's violence in Borand state, dozens of Christians were killed by the Fulani group for supporting Obi.

International election observers have reported sporadic violence and other voter intimidation tactics across the country.
