Gunmen early Wednesday broke into one of the parishes presided over by the Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Matthew Hassan-Kukah, The PUNCH has learnt.

Our correspondent gathered that the armed hoodlums kidnapped two priests and two others in the rectory of St. Patrick’s Catholic Church, Gidan Maikambo, in the Kafur Local Government Area of Katsina State.

Kukah’s Sokoto Diocese covers Katsina, Zamfara, Sokoto and Kebbi States.

The Director, Social Communications of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Rev. Fr Christopher Omotosho, confirmed the development with our correspondent on Wednesday morning.

He said the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto is under attack and no information has been gotten as to the whereabouts of the abductees.

Omotosho said, “As at midnight of today, 25th May, 2022, gunmen broke into the rectory of St. Patrick’s Catholic Church, Gidan Maikambo, Kafur LGA of Katsina State.

“The parish priest and his assistant Rev. Frs. Stephen Ojapa, MSP, and Oliver Okpara and two boys in the house were kidnapped.

"No information as to their whereabouts. Kindly pray for their safety and release.”

When contacted, the spokesman for Katsina State Police Command, Gambo Isah, said, “Let me find out.”

On May 14, rampaging hoodlums torched and vandalised some parishes presided over by Kukah in Sokoto following his condemnation of the gruesome murder of Deborah Yakubu by her Muslim colleagues.

The 200-level Home Economics student of Shehu Shagari College of Education in Sokoto was accused of blasphemy against Prophet Muhammed.

The rioters also burnt some parts of Kukah’s church buildings and set a bus ablaze on one of the premises.

The Sokoto religious-tainted riot has extended to some parts of Bauchi and Abuja in the last few days while security agents and some northern governors have warned against religious violence.

Ahhh

Like I said like a year ago, wicked northern Politicians would start displacing their own people just to reduce their opponents stronghold

Muslim terrorists again looking for Islamic blood that have become their juice

CAN recently raised this alarm knowing the culprits that would be targeting the voice of Christian's in sokoto

Just imagine that you are watching a movie where a plane is nose diving with full speed but the captain and co-pilot are celebrating and drinking wine with the crew while the passengers are clapping for them and taking pics.

This is what Nigeria looks like

Sweetplum:
Ahhh

Shuttap Muslim terrorist like you

This is the retaliation the said.
Now another group will retaliate and it continues till we have sense or separate.
Those that are waiting to loot will also retaliate against previous looters
Those that joined soldiers do so to retaliate
Chai retaliation on chains maybe in bunches

Usual sleepy reaction from the police command

Urheadmaster:

Islam na just refurbished aiye

Imagine going to church and abducting priests to kill and tomorrow one foolish northernern would compare this to a fatima woman killed on the street in anambra by a group equal to bandit

Christian's in the North are living in fear

There is no religious tolerance there

Bishop Kukah and his church has been a threat to the northern(core North most especially) Muslims because of his outspokenness, stand for truth and being fearless and as such, has been a Target for attacks by both the Muslim clergy and their religion

It was this year that Nigerian FG bribed the us government to delist Nigeria from religious violators list and now these are happening

Shame to US

Omo

Timing bomb waiting to explode.
That's the result you get when a sovereign Nation have two constitutions.

Wawu

." Let me find out"




This coming from the police is very annoying.

Why are security agencies always the last to know about crime in Nigeria?

Aren't they meant to be fighting crime?

Hmmmm

Bandit, Bandits, Unknown Gun Men, Unknown Gun Men, Boko Haram, Boko Haram, Ore mi, Ore mi, shalanga le ma ku si.

But you know where Nigerians want you to go, go there and do us proud. Go there and bring out the breathing mannequin hiding inside the Rock. Nigerians will celebrate you. You too will make billions of dollars as ransom.

Since you have decided to be unfortunate in this life, and also end up with your father Lucifer in Hell Fire, why don't you kukuma enjoy this world. Go to where the money is instead of abducting this poor and average people and getting cursed. Go to where the money is and be guest of the breathing mannequin and the fake Pastor. Make reasonable money and enjoy life, and at the same time write your names in Gold as the group of Satan's children that once saved a nation from calamity.

Ok

Today ke?

This evil APC government has taken dier wickedness to face the Catholic church.
It is funny how peeps like Seunmg, Helinius, Mooh and Chief Mannavulturegriller supports dis Satanic party called APC.

Y cznt this country split for goodness sake!!!!!

Probably for ransom

Being a Muslim in Nigeria is equivalent to terror.
Being a Christian is equivalent to being murdered.

Those who are the murderers are silent while those murdered are speaking up.

Sensible and learned Muslims should talk to the illiterate fanatics among them causing mayhem, deaths and killings everywhere.

We are 1000% sure not all Muslims are violent in nature.
We have hundreds of them as friends, clients, neighbors and colleagues.

That being said.....
