Fulani terrorists have struck in Kaduna State once more, spreading fear throughout the region. Mr. Kefas Ishaya, a catechist at St. Monica Catholic Church, Ikulu-Pari, in the Chawai Chiefdom of Kauru Local Government, Kaduna State, was abducted by the gunmen.
According to reports, the assailants kidnapped the catechist after failing to capture his boss, Rev. Fr. Joseph Shekari.
Shekari, who was not at his home when the attack took place, had left the village. According to Mr. Sunday Bage, the chairman of the parish’s Ikulu Zone, the kidnappers arrived “around 9.30 p.m. and dragged the Catechist to the bush.”
He was taken along with his phone. The phone number has been called repeatedly, but it keeps ringing.
He claimed that while moving through the church, the school, and the priest’s home in search of the Rev Father, the gunmen randomly opened fire. According to some locals who spoke with Newsmen, the shooters climbed over the fence and entered the priest’s home.
The front door of the house was broken by them using stones and bullets. “This is heartbreaking; the situation is very sad. They pulled Catechist along the ground like a dog, according to a visibly terrified woman who spoke to Newsmen.
