At least 20 people are dead after an overnight attack in Nigeria’s north-central region<\/a> on Palm Sunday.<\/p>\n

The attack happened in the Gari Ya Waye community in the Jos North area of Plateau state, according to Joyce Lohya Ramnap, the state commissioner for information.<\/p>\n

It remains unclear how many people were wounded or killed, and who was behind the massacre.<\/p>\n

Residents told The Associated Press that gunmen on bikes shot “sporadically” into the community, killing at least 20 people.<\/p>\n

International Christian Concern (ICC), a global humanitarian organization, reported<\/a> the gunmen killed at least 30 people.<\/p>\n

ICC also noted at least 10 people were killed earlier Sunday, with humanitarian worker, Alex Barbir, stating on social media that the victims were Christians.<\/a><\/p>\n

Following the attacks, the Plateau state government<\/a> imposed a 48-hour curfew.<\/p>\n

In 2025, the ICC documented<\/a> the killing of at least 54 Christians in Zikke village near Jos following Palm Sunday celebrations.<\/p>\n

More than 100 homes were destroyed<\/a> during the ambush.<\/p>\n

Nigeria\u00a0is ranked the seventh-worst country in the world for Christian persecution, accounting for 72% of the total number of Christian killings worldwide in 2025<\/a>, according to Open Doors, a global Christian charity.<\/p>\n

Last year alone, Open Doors records show<\/a> 546 Christians were killed in the Plateau State.<\/p>\n
