Gunmen, suspected to be bandits, have kidnapped dozens of worshippers during an attack on a church in the Kabba/Bunu Local Government Area of Kogi State.
It was gathered that the attackers, numbering over 50, invaded the Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA) in Aiyetoro Kiri on Sunday.
One person was reportedly killed by the gunmen who shot indiscriminately during the attack, while over 20 worshippers, including children, were whisked away.
The attack on Aiyetoro Kiri church is the second incident in the community, as bandits had recently invaded the area, abducting 50 people and carting away dozens of phones from a business centre.
The attacks have instilled fear among residents, with many now relocating from the community.
