(Nigeria)–Meanwhile, the Bible Society of Nigeria is decrying a scam involving unscrupulous dealers and their work. The BSN reports they’ve discovered their Bibles were being bought at a flat rate, only to be re-sold at unaffordable prices to the final buyers. This prevents the needy from having access to the Word of God. BSN has translated the Bible into 17 Nigerian languages, with emphasis on the Northern and Middle Belt areas, where no one had finished translation.
