Bomb Blast At A Church In Kaduna Today. by pendusky(m): 11:51am On Oct 28, 2012 |
KADUNA Oct 28 (Reuters) - At least one suicide bomber drove a vehiclepacked with explosives into a Catholic church in northern Nigeria on Sunday, killing and wounding several people, witnesses and police said. Survivor Linus Lighthouse said twobombers had struck different parts of the packed St Rita's church, in Kaduna, a volatile ethnically and religiously mixed city. They had got right inside the building, causing many casualties, he said. "I cannot tell you how many casualties, but there were many. The heavy explosion also damaged so many buildings around the area," he said. But Aminu Lawal, a Kaduna police spokesman, said there was only one confirmed bomber and that no casualties had yet been confirmed apart from the bomber himself. Another witness, Daniel Kazah, a member of the Catholic cadets in the church, said he had seen three bodies on the bloodied church floor. "But still others were taken to the mortuary," he said. There was no immediate claim of responsibility but Islamist sect Boko Haram has claimed similar attacks in the past and has attacked several churches with bombs and guns since it intensified its campaign against Christians in the past year http://af.reuters.com/article/energyOilNews/idAFL5E8LS0NN20121028 |
