Bade of Nigeria

Bade of Nigeria
The Bade live in Yobe State and Jigawa State, Nigeria. Their settlements vary in size, and most contain walled-in compounds surrounding several mud or grass houses with thatched, cone-shaped roofs. These houses are very cool during the hot months. Farmland surrounds each settlement. The Bade practice a mixture of Animism and Islam. Some folk beliefs are still practiced in conjunction with Islam. Charms and amulets are worn around the neck or in pockets for various reasons.
Ministry Obstacles
The main ruler of the people is the Mai Bade, and he holds much power over the people. Pray this man will become open to the Gospel, allowing the message of Christ to be given to the people.
Outreach Ideas
There are Bible studies being done in the language of the Bade people. Pray for receptive hearts to listen and understand.
Pray for the followers of Christ
There are a handful of followers of Christ among the Bade people. Pray they will faithfully worship together in close fellowship, and not be ashamed of the Gospel of Christ.
Pray for the entire people group
Pray for adequate rainfall to produce good harvests, and for improved schooling opportunities for the children of the Bade.
