Gunmen suspected to be bandits, on Sunday, invaded the Baptist Church, Kakau Daji, in the Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna state, killed two persons and abducted many.
The incident was confirmed by the President of the Kaduna Baptist Convention, Rev Ishaya Jangado. However, the exact number of the abducted had yet to be ascertained as of the time of this report.
He said that, “The incident occurred this morning (Sunday), but we don’t know the exact number of people who were kidnapped yet.”
According to The Punch, Chairman of the state chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Rev Joseph Hayab, while reacting to the incident, said the attack was “another sad story of how deteriorating our security has become.”
Hayab added, “Citizens are being killed like chicken with only press statements as consolation. These evil people have troubled us for too long.
“I condole with the families of the Baptist denomination and Kaduna Christians for these losses and urge our security agencies to separate the war against enemies of Nigerians from politics. No one knows who will be the next target.”
There was no official confirmation from the state government and the police as the state police command’s spokesman, ASP Mohammad Jalige, could not be reached when he was contacted.
