The Manga Kanuri live in northeast Nigeria amid conflict and insecurity. Islam is their primary religion, and past ministry attempts have yielded little fruit. However, recent conflict has led some to question Islam, creating an openness to the gospel. Nigerian believers have shared the gospel among the Manga Kanuri, and a few have professed faith in Jesus. Relief projects have met physical needs, opening doors for gospel witnessing. Bible translation into the Manga Kanuri dialect has also begun.
“.. and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised.” (2 Corinthians 5:15)
