Nigeria (MNN) ― Christians in Nigeria are saying, “Enough is enough.”The Christian Association of Nigeria convened an emergency meeting this week in response to the Boko Haram’s latest violence.What’s clear is that the fanatical sect is growing bolder. Todd Nettleton withVoice of the Martyrs says, “They have sort of expanded their territory. They have gone after a United Nations office. They have gone after government buildings. So they really have become  a significant threat in Nigeria.” Having declared a holy war, the question became “Is Boko Haram a threat?” Nettleton says all indications say “Yes” — not only to Nigeria’s stability and security, but also to the religious freedoms of non-Muslims.  “They absolutely want Nigeria to be under Sharia law. The term ‘Boko Haram’ means ‘Western education is a sin,’ so they clearly want to return the entire country of Nigeria to what they would see as the traditional Muslim way–that is, for Sharia to be in place for the whole country.” Full article here
