Bandits on Sunday invaded a Baptist Church in Kakau Daji, Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna State, leaving at least two people dead.
The attack which occured early Sunday morning also saw the abduction of many others by the bandits.
The invasion was confirmed by President of the Kaduna Baptist Convention, Rev. Ishaya Jangado, saying that the number of abducted persons was yet to be ascertained.
“The incident occurred this morning but we don’t know the exact number of people that were kidnapped yet,” he said.
Reacting to the attack, the Kaduna State Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Rev. Joseph Hayab, said “another sad story of how deteriorating our insecurity has become.”
“Citizens are being killed like chickens 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 war against enemies of Nigerians from politics. No one knows who will be the next target,” he added.
The Kaduna Police Command was yet to comment on the incident as of press time.
