CWN Editor's Note: An estimated 700 clerics attended the funeral of a murdered Nigerian priest, and demanded government action to stop the attacks.

Archbishop Matthew Man-oso Ndagoso of Kaduna, who presided at the funeral, said that the people of Nigeria are being held hostage by terrorist attacks. Noting that three priests of his archdiocese have been murdered in the past year, he said: “Even during the civil war, it was not as bad as it is now.”
