  2. Pray for the Fulani, Sokoto in Nigeria

Feb 21, 2019

Sokoto is one of the states of Nigeria, and Sokoto is also a city. In the year 2000, Islamic Shari'ah law was introduced in several northern states of Nigeria including Sokoto State. The Sokoto Fulani are a sub-group of the much larger Fulani people, a tribe that is spread across much of West Africa.

Tensions between the mostly Muslim people of northern Nigeria and the mostly Christian people of the south have long been high. For a northern Fulani to follow Christ is to risk being seen as a traitor.

Nigeria has a large number of Christian believers. Perhaps some will be able to overcome tribal animosities and carry the good news of Jesus to the northern Fulani tribes. Pray to this end.
