At least 20 worshippers were abducted on Sunday after gunmen attacked the First ECWA Church in Ayetoro Kiri, Kabba/Bunu Local Government Area of Kogi State.

Local sources said the attackers stormed the church during a worship service, firing shots to cause panic among congregants.

While many fled, several others were seized by the assailants, who escaped through nearby bush paths.

The attack plunged the community into fear and confusion and has renewed concerns over rising insecurity in parts of Kogi State, particularly attacks on rural communities and places of worship.
