20 killed in fresh attack in two communities in Kaduna - Daily Post Nigeria

The Parish Priest of Damakasuwa Outstation, Rev. Fr. Aaron Tanko, added that, although the bandits were repelled by security personnel, the burial ceremony was conducted without the usual rites.Given a comprehensive account of the killings, he said, “The attacks took place on Thursday and Friday at midnight. Chibuak was attacked on Thursday and nine people were killed. They attacked Kigudu II on Friday night and killed 11 people.

“Some people are still missing so I cannot conclusively say this is the casualty figure. Some of those killed are my parishioners and other Christians of other denominations. “We were preparing for the mass burial of our Parishioners this morning in Kigudu II but we could not do it when the herdsmen came attacking us again.“Many of our villagers are at the mercy of Fulani herdsman. They are always well-armed and they invade our communities and kill people at will.

“There are villages where people cannot even go to their farms for fear of being killed by herdsmen,” the clergyman said Kaduna State Police Command PPRO, ASP Mohammad Jalige could not pick his phone, and he did not respond to text messages sent to him.
