Christianity in Adamawa State information


Adamawa state is the home of a large number of Christians, forming the largest minority religion in the predominantly Muslim state.[1] Christian communities in the state have been heavily attacked by Boko Haram. However, these attacks have reduced in recent years due to the Nigerian military's efforts to combat terrorism in the region.[2] The state has the Roman Catholic Diocese of Yola as majority headed by Stephen Dami Mamza. Ekklesiyar ‘Yan’uwar a Nigeria – (Church of the Brethren) has its seat in the province. Deeper Life Bible Church and Living Faith Church are present in Yola.[3][4] Most of the members of the Lutheran Church of Christ in Nigeria are in the state, with the headquarters being at Numan.[5] Fellowship Baptist Conference of Nigerian Baptist Convention has its seat at Mubi and Gongola Baptist Conference-Ag of Nigerian Baptist Convention has its seat at Numan. [6] Gombi, Golembatal, Uvu, Nokwam Nbulum, Wurobalka and Mubi have National Evangelical Mission churches.[7]
