I\u2019ve seen some amazing pictures of Fulani in their full tribal regalia, with their headcovers, being baptized into the kingdom of God.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These groups have often been used as pawns by outside political forces who want to promote radical Islam. Other attacks stem from the differing needs of farmers and herdsmen or different tribal disputes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Praise God for the work he is doing among the Fulani and the Tuareg. Nettleton says, \u201cThe book of Revelation promises people of every tribe and tongue and nation will worship Jesus. We\u2019re seeing that happen in our day, so we celebrate the work of God.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mnnonline.org\/news\/god-working-among-the-fulani-tuareg-tribes-in-niger\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read the full story<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See also a <a href=\"https:\/\/m.facebook.com\/vomusa\/photos\/a.106756294356\/10160012579194357\/?type=3&amp;locale=ne_NP&amp;_rdr\">Voice of the Martyrs Facebook post about a creative Taureg baptism<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Editor\u2019s Note: What a joy to read news like this!
