A video of a woman wailing on a grave claiming to have lost her husband and son was circulated following a Palm Sunday attack in Nigeria in late March 2026. The video was part of a 2025 documentary that investigated claims of a Christian genocide in Nigeria. The clip was shared more than 11,000 times on X, a platform run by Nigerian journalist Chude Jideonwo. However, it is claimed that the woman was identified as Keziah Chollom Danjuma whose husband and four children were reportedly killed during an attack on the Rachas community in Plateau state in November 2025. The Red Cross confirmed that at least 12 people were killed on March 29, 2026, when unidentified attackers opened fire at an establishment in the Anguwan Rukuba area of Jos North district. A mob retaliation increased the death toll to 33.
