youngies: The police in Kogi say additional eight suspects have been arrested in connection with the killings of 19 worshippers at a Deeper Life Bible Church, Okene, on Aug. 6.

[b]The state Commissioner of Police, Mohammed Katsina, who disclosed this to newsmen in Lokoja on Tuesday, however, said two of the suspects had died in custody.

Mr. Katsina did not provide details of who the dead suspects are and under what circumstances they died.

Key suspects, who could help resolve a crime, are often pronounced dead by the police.

The commissioner however said the police arrested two of the eight new suspects in a bus on Murtala Mohammad Bridge, Jamata, Lokoja, on their way to the state from one of the neighbouring states.

Mr. Katsina said that the arrested persons were suspected to be among the attackers of the church, who were re-grouping after the attack.

The police commissioner also said that the attackers hatched their plot to attack the church and Okene Local Government Secretariat at their hideout in the Eyika Adagu area of the local government.

"Three persons each were detailed to attack the church and the soldier respectively; the pastor was the target of the attack but because of confusion as they entered the church, they were shooting sporadically.''

He said that the gang also confessed that they had planned to launch another attack on Aug. 19, to disrupt the services and the Eid-el-Fitri celebration before the arrest of its leader.

The police in the state had announced on Aug. 13 that 16 suspects had been arrested in connection with the Okene church killings.

But Mr. Katsina did not say what has become of the 16 initial suspects and where they are being held.

The commissioner also said that two bomb-manufacturing factories were discovered on Tuesday in Abu Limit Estate and Eyika Adagu in Okene and Okehi Local Government Areas respectively.

Conducting journalists round the factories, Mr. Katsina said they were discovered following information provided by the arrested leader of the 21-man gang who masterminded the church attack.

People please read btwn the lines, these people might have turned state witnesses and had to be taken into a witness programme/protection. They have to change their identity for good hence they might pronounce them dead. Where do you the extra detailed infor came from? Would you want to cross BH and still be mentioned that you are alive? DAAAHHHHH!!!!

the attackers of the church, who were re-grouping after the attack

Christian! seek not yet repose,
Hear thy guardian angel say;
Thou art in the midst of foes;
“Watch and pray.”

Principalities and powers,
Mustering their unseen array,
Wait for thy unguarded hours;
“Watch and pray.”

Gird thy heavenly armor on,
Wear it ever night and day;
Ambushed lies the evil one;
“Watch and pray.”


Watch, as if on that alone
Hung the issue of the day;
Pray that help may be sent down;
“Watch and pray.”
