VOMedical Nigeria

18 March 2025

The goal of this project is to provide medical care for over 2,000 people including:

⦁ Persecuted Christians suffering from over two decades of recurrent attacks on their homes, farms and villages by militant Muslim Fulani herders.
⦁ Over 300 children receiving crisis care; most of whom have lost family members through violence.
⦁ New believers from Muslim backgrounds who are survivors of Fulani persecution.
⦁ Persecuted young women including, widows of conflict, and sexual abuse victims.
⦁ Local evangelists and pastors, including those who risk their lives working in dangerous places.
⦁ Local Muslims may also receive treatment as a demonstration of Christ-like love and kindness.
The excellent medical care, provided with kindness, enables children and adult persecution survivors to be encouraged helps them rebuild their shattered communities and witness to the gospel and to keep on serving God. Muslim neighbours are amazed at the help and kindness received.

Abdul and Ibrahim turned to Christ in 2024, their families persecuted them severely.

Abdul’s relatives tried to kill him. His father beat him severely, injuring his legs and imprisoned him with almost no food. When he finally escaped, Abdul was brought to our ministry partner in Jos, by a pastor. He was in bad physical shape.

After his conversion, Ibrahim’s parents put poison in his food to try to kill him, but he survived. His pastor brought him to the ministry base for care and discipleship.

Both required a lot of support and medical treatment. Both are now recovering and doing well.
