‘I started to face serious problems when the Islamists heard about me and the conversion of some of the people [from Islam to Christianity],’ Sory says. ‘They sent me warnings through friends, telling me to stop talking about Jesus or risk getting killed. They said they knew it was easy to kill Christians because [Christians] don’t have any weapons. They can simply be slaughtered.’
