“EquippingThePersecuted.org was notified, and our team immediately took action to make sure they got to the hospital, and we are taking care of their medical expenses,” said Judd Saul, its founder.
The organisation focused on providing rapid response and long-term support for Christians in Nigeria, further disclosed that “Islamic Fulani militias ambushed four Irigwe Christian youths in La’ake village, Kwall District, Bassa LGA.”
