The Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Kaduna State, Rev. John Hayab, confirmed the development on Monday.
He stated that 15 of the congregants managed to escape, while the bandits went away with the remaining 25. “Efforts are being made to get in touch with the abductors concerning the remaining people; we pray that the abductors would be merciful to release the remaining 25 back to their families,” Hayab lamented.
Furthermore, nine children of the Emir of Kagarko in Southern Kaduna, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar, were kidnapped by terrorists on Sunday. The incident occurred around 11:30 pm when the hoodlums stormed the town and headed straight for the monarch’s palace.
A resident, who spoke with journalists, said the terrorists took away the emir’s youngest wife, nine children, and grandchildren, but the wife managed to escape and return home.
The attackers also kidnapped three other persons, including a lady, and injured one Audu Kwakulu of Ungwan Pah, who is currently receiving treatment in the hospital.
The state government and the state police command have not yet issued any official statement regarding the two incidents.
