Nigerians have called out Nigerian pastors for keeping quiet while foreign pastors fight for the right of a Nigerian farmer sentenced to de@th for killing a Fulani herdsman who invaded his farm. The case dates back to a 2014 incident in Adamawa State where farmer Sunday Jackson was attacked on his farm in Codonti Forest by Buba Bawuro, a Fulani herdsman who had trespassed with his cattle. According to Jackson, Bawuro pulled a knife and st@bbed him multiple times during the altercation. In a struggle, Jackson managed to seize the knife and f@tally st@bbed Bawuro in the neck. Jackson was subsequently arrested and charged with murdr, despite his consistent assertion that he acted in self-defense. In 2021, a Yola court sentenced him to de@th by hanging, a decision the Supreme Court has now affirmed. On Friday, March 7, 2025, the Supreme Court of Nigeria upheld the de@th sentence of Sunday Jackson. Dr. William Terrence Devlin, an American human rights leader, is advocating for Sunday Jackson to be freed. This has led Nigerians to slam Nigerian pastors for maintaining silence while a white pastor fights for the life of a Nigerian Christian who is facing de@th for defending himself.  Watch the video below.  Sunday Jacksons Death Row Sentence: He Has Been Failed By the Nigerian System -OgebeJacksons case is a clear case of self-defence; he retrieved the knife from his attacker.
