A female assistant pastor in Nigeria was hacked to death while preaching in early July, one of many attacks against Christians in the country in recent months.
But Eunice Elisha’s husband Olawale, also a pastor, has said that her attackers should be forgiven, whether or not they are caught. He said: ‘My prayer is that if they can accept Christ it will be a gain for Christ.’
Mother of seven
Eunice, a 42-year-old mother of seven, was murdered early on a Saturday morning after she had gone out to preach in the Kubwa region in Nigeria.
