Imagine these were your family members. Imagine these were your parents, siblings, children, grandchildren and grandparents in these coffins… would you still stay silent?

Today been Sunday, the 2nd of August 2026 , and I woke up with a heavy heart.
Instead of rejoicing in a new day, my thoughts were consumed by the heartbreaking images from yesterday as twenty-seven innocent souls were laid to rest together in a mass burial in Naridon Village, Southern Kaduna.
My heart aches beyond words. Twenty-seven caskets stood side by side, each one carrying a life that was precious to God. Some families stood before more than one coffin because they had lost several loved ones in the same attack. Parents buried their children. Children buried their parents. Brothers, sisters, neighbours, and lifelong friends were all taken away by violence.
"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." Psalm 34:18
As I looked at those coffins, I could not help but ask how many more tears must be shed before the world pays attention. How many more villages must mourn? How many more innocent Christians must be buried together before their cries are heard?
Yesterday, Naridon Village became another place where dreams were buried alongside innocent lives. The sound of weeping replaced the laughter of families. The silence left behind is almost unbearable. Every coffin tells the story of a future stolen too soon.
Jesus said, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." Matthew 5:4
Today, I ask the Church around the world not to forget Naridon. Pray for the widows whose hearts have been shattered. Pray for the orphaned children who no longer have parents to hold them. Pray for the elderly who have buried their sons and daughters. Pray for a community trying to find hope in the middle of unimaginable sorrow.
May the Lord receive these precious souls into His eternal rest. May He comfort every grieving family, heal every broken heart, and give strength to those left behind. And may justice, peace, and compassion rise before more innocent lives are lost.
Rest in peace to the twenty-seven precious lives laid to rest yesterday. You may have been buried in one graveyard, but your memory will never be buried from our hearts.
The Church of England led the world to abolition. It is arguably the single greatest practical Anglican achievement. You can’t find a single word to say about that?
Bill Gates had a Q Clearance and a private editor at NIH.
Across nearly twenty years, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation built a relationship with the federal government that ran on personal access as much as formal partnership. I'm releasing the documents. 🧵
On May 7th, I collected these automatic rifle rounds from the scene of a mass killing that happened outside my city the previous night.
Where I stood, the floor was littered with bloodstains, scattered shoes, and torn pieces of clothing. The bullets were lodged in the wall where they had ended up after passing through the seven victims of the May 6th attack in Nding Sesut, Fann District, Barkin Ladi LGA, Plateau State.
To this day, I am haunted by the images — the blood splatter on the walls and the shattered bodies of the victims. These bullets are not just a memory of a night of devastating sorrow.
They represent death. They are evidence of lives lost — the last thing to touch the bodies of the Christian victims of that evening massacre before their last breath.
In case you missed my latest for @RestoringWest: Anthony Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times before Congress.
New documents raise fresh questions about deleted emails, COVID's origins, and more than $1 million in royalties collected while in office.
Accountability is long overdue.
Fauci’s 'performance' today made me sick. Smug arrogance. Zero remorse. Zero accountability. He refused to answer a single question.
Sharing this again as a reminder: He used your tax dollars to fund the coronavirus lab research in Wuhan—and worked with the IC to cover it up. We deserve the truth and accountability.
Pheasant hunting involves shooting birds out of the sky. After the birds fall into the bushes, your retriever dog rushes to find the downed bird, brings it back to you, and receives a small treat in return.
I have often wondered why the dogs don't simply eat the birds instead of retrieving them for a small reward.
It's a matter of conditioning.
The dogs have been trained to give up something bigger—a fresh bird—for something smaller, a treat.
In 234, students celebrate receiving alerts about loans for their university education from elected leaders who sit on vast oil wealth. These students have been conditioned to exchange something significant for something small.
Similarly, those who accept bags of rice in place of a functional Social Security system have been conditioned to accept a small treat in return for something much larger.
Ultimately, there are those who sell their votes. Your vote is incredibly valuable, and wealthy politicians plead with you to sell it to them, which you do. You have been conditioned to take a small reward in exchange for something much more significant.
Selah.
PLEASE READ THE WHOLE THING!!! This is currently happening in Kajuru in Kaduna State. Our people are now under bandit rule. If the rest of Nigeria refuses to pay attention, it will be all of you eventually. Our people do not deserve to live this kind of life.
The Nigerian authorities must do more to end relentless attacks on some villages of southern Kaduna — and other parts of the north.
On 16 June 2026, gunmen attacked Irigwe community of Angwan Magaji, Kamaru Ward, Kauru LGA Kaduna State, killing 9 persons and injuring 11 persons. A week later, the community buried the dead amidst tears.
Amnesty International has been documenting series of attacks on Angwan Magaji since 2020.
