Violence Continues as 3 Catholic Priests Are Kidnapped in Nigeria | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

In Nigeria, 3 Catholic priests were recently kidnapped, continuing a disturbing trend of violence against Christians. The priests were kidnapped in separate incidents last month. There are also reports of churches being burned. One report says the violence in a Nigerian city is so bad, Christians now live in the North and Muslims in the South. Student from the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross, Fr. Matthew Eze, joins to give us an update on the priests who were kidnapped and also on the situation in general for Christians in Nigeria. Fr. Matthew shares his fears on whether violence will escalate as we approach Easter. He discusses whether there are any signs that a truce, or at least a temporary end to the fighting in Nigeria, is going to happen.
