The International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law (Intersociety) says at least 99 Christians were killed and 114 abducted across several Nigerian states between October 28 and November 11, 2025, in what it describes as a surge in coordinated attacks. In a situation report released on Monday, Nov. 17, the group warned that the violence shows “no end in sight,” with most of the killings reportedly carried out by Jihadist Fulani militants, while Boko Haram accounted for four deaths.
According to Intersociety, the killings occurred in Taraba (34 deaths), Plateau (22), Kaduna (16), Benue (15), Borno (4) and Edo, where a seminarian held in captivity was said to have been murdered. The report also noted an additional ten unconfirmed deaths, which it categorised as “dark figures” likely linked to abductions. The organisation said the figures amount to an average of seven Christians killed and eight abducted daily within the two-week period.
The group further revealed that 114 Christians were abducted, including 50 in Kaduna, 30 in Taraba, six each in Plateau and Benue, and 12 in the Kogi/Kwara axis, alongside ten more classified as unaccounted-for victims. In the same period, six churches were reportedly attacked and sacked across Benue, Borno, Kaduna and Taraba. Four clerics were killed, while another four were abducted in the wave of targeted assaults.
The organisation accused the Federal Government of failing to take decisive action despite international warnings, including concerns recently raised by the United States.
