The Baangi people have their own language, but like many ethnic groups in northern Nigeria, they also speak Hausa, the language of the dominant people in that part of the world.
Workers will find the area somewhat inaccessible during the rainy season and living conditions are primitive.
Nigerian followers of Christ from other tribes can reach the Baangi tribe with the good news. The Lela and the Dakakari live close by and they already have a Christian presence.
"You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it." Psalm 139:13-14
Pray that this people group will understand and embrace that they are created by God, and that His ways are marvelous!
As far as we know, there is not a single follower of Christ among the Baangi tribe. Pray for the Lord to raise up workers from among the Lela and the Dakakari tribes to reach out to these Muslims. Pray that workers will not stop until there is a powerful movement to Christ that will bless them spiritually and socially. Pray for workers to find "persons of peace" who will give them the opportunity to speak into this people group. Pray the Baangi tribe will be given a growing spiritual desire to find truth that will not be satisfied with anything less. Pray for peace in northern Nigeria.
