For Christians around the world, Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week, in commemoration of the entrance of Jesus Christ into Jerusalem.
On Palm Sunday this year, on Saturday 29 March, Christians in the city of Jos in northern Nigeria’s Plateau State saw AK-wielding jihadists enter their city on motorbike. Dozens were then slaughtered. One local leader told me of the pain of praying with a single mother whose 17-year-old son was murdered. Another woman was pregnant when she was shot dead.
