The killing of a Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) pastor by the Boko Haram sect in troubled Borno state has thrown the church into mourning and apprehension.

The pastor, Taiwo Dokun was killed in the insurgents attack on Dille village in Askira-Uba local government area of the state on Monday.

According to some members of RCCG who spoke to journalists in Maiduguri, the whereabouts of the late pastor’s wife and three children is not yet known.

“The family could have been abducted by the insurgents who took away many of the residents of the town as the family members were not found since the attack and have not called any one.

“Though their residence was completely razed by the insurgents, their corpses were not found in the debris,” one of the church members who preferred anonymity told journalists.

Speaking from Dille on Friday, Jacob Mamza narrated how the pastor was killed in the attack which claimed 45 lives. He said “the pastor was in his house at about 6am when the insurgents attacked the village, his house was surrounded by the hoodlums and while attempting to run he was shot.

“Pastor Taiwo was running to a neighbour’s house and it was in the course of his fleeing that he was shot in the head and the chest and the insurgent equally came to butcher him to make sure that he was dead.”

Igbos, leave the north

R.I.P to d Pastor!!

Any right thinking human being would have left that state now.

Why can't some people use their brains.
Why is adeboye not going to borno to hold his crusade?
There is no God.if at all there is one ,then that God is the God of Ife and the Yorubas and not the god of intolerant places like Mecca , medina and Israel .

Duh! Only Igbos live in Northern Nigeria.

Because his life is worth more than that of the pastor who was killed.
Honestly, I am surprised that there is a Redeem church in that part of Borno. Redeem rarely opens branches in non-profitable places whether peaceful or not.

Gambarinistan killing Nigerians since 1914.

RIP Warrior of Christ, your dead will give rise to another 1Million like you who will work in the vineyard of out Lord.

Dont mind the unclean animals.

You obviously lack knowledge. Pity

We are tired

So sad! R I P sir

This is a pathetic story, may God grant the family the fortitude to bear the loss.

Pastor Adeboye has been silent about GEJ's incompetence to eradicate BH because his church is one of the campaign ground. Maybe he will speak up now.

People die everyday in Borno,the rich and poor irrespective of their religion. It's not just RCCG pastor, ECWA, Catholic, Imams, teachers........

The FG should intensify efforts to extract the boko haram guys as fast as possible.

Our losses as a nation is enormous.

oldenglish: Hausas suyaring Igbos since time immemorial.

I did not read the post ooh. But I know the content since it involves killing of somebody by Hausas.

I think we can all guess from where Taiwo Dokun emanated from.
