Nigeria Appeal 2023

Don’t let them suffer in vain

Margaret lost both legs and her sight in one eye after a bomb blast at St Francis Xavier’s Church in Owo, a town in south-west Nigeria. On the day of the attack, the church was packed with parishioners, as it was Pentecost Sunday. Margaret was up in the church gallery singing in the choir when gunmen began shooting.

Please help us to reach 10,000 signatures to bring justice for the victims of the Owo massacre.
