(Worthy News) – Mass murder in Plateau State was narrowly averted July 12 after a security guard spotted a bomb at a church’s entrance and threw it away just before it exploded.
According to Barnabas Aid, police later discovered another device planted in the church’s bathroom before it could explode.
Although no terrorist group had claimed responsibility for the failed bombing, Boko Haram has attacked more churches and killed more Christians during the last two years than any other terrorist group in the world.
