Suicide bombers have attacked
two churches in Zaria, and
another in Kaduna. In Zaria,
ECWA, Wusasa and Christ the King
Church, Sabon Gari were
bombed.
So far, 15 persons have been
confirmed dead in the CKC attack,
with several others injured.
LEADERSHIP gathered that the
Zaria bombings were
coordinated as they happened
almost at the same time in both
locations.
Eyewitnesses told our
correspondent that the suicide
bombers arrived at the churches
in bomb-rigged cars, pretending
to be worshippers.
The ECWA suicide bomber drove
in a Honda Accord popularly
referred to as ‘End of discussion’.
When he tried to gain entrance
into the church premises, he was
stopped by the security agent at
the routine check point. But he
refused to stop. He then forced
his vehicle towards the Church;
the vehicle exploded between
the main church and the children
section of the church.
Barely an hour after the Zaria
blasts, another suicide bomber
attacked Shalom Church in
Tirkaniya, Kaduna metropolis.
Although details of the attack are
sketchy, LEADERSHIP gathered
that the soldier and security man
stationed at the entrance of the
church denied the bomber
entrance. The bomb went off and
all three were killed.
The third bombing sparked fury
among Kaduna youths who took
to the streets in protest.
As at the time of filing this report,
three persons have been
confirmed dead from the reprisal
attack. Our correspondent
reports that a bus and several
smaller cars as well as seven
motorcycles have been burnt.
Soldiers are still shooting
sporadically to disperse the
rampaging youths.
